Seriously. This is about 4 seconds of “work” on my way to get my bag from the trunk.
I don’t think people realize the plug has a button which pops open the charging door on it.
It literally takes less time than unscrewing and rescrewing on a gas cap.
Unplugging is even faster. Put hand on charging plug. Press button with thumb. Wait one second for clicking noise signaling that charging is stopped/unlocked. Pull out plug. If the car was fully charged (to the set charging point, e.g. 90%) then even the button click is not needed because it will already be unlocked. Just pull out the plug.
I do have an ideally located wall charger so there is not even a “coil cord” or “uncoil cord” step.
Waking up every morning with a charged (and warm!) car is a pleasure.
I know it’s possible to auto-schedule the climate control warm-up but haven’t bothered with that yet, I jump into the app and click it on after making my coffee.
