Porsche unveiled the new Panamera 4 E-Hybrid plug-in hybrid ( earlier post )—the fourth model in the Panamera line—at the Paris Motor Show. Porsche views “hybrid” as being as synonymous with performance as with sustainability, pointing to the victory of the 919 Hybrid in the 24 Hours of Le Mans race in 2015 and 2016.

The companies listed on the MPGuino Wiki page as selling MPGuino boards or kits at one time are now out of that business. For that, I obtained (through eBay, naturally) a vintage VDO oil-pressure gauge, one that was salvaged from a Porsche that was not too much older than my car.

I recently sent off an e-mail to Azure Dynamics, the maker of the DMOC445 AC motor controller in the 914 kit. Beth Silverman, the support person, has been very quick to respond with whatever information she can provide from the controller designers. If so, do you sell a device that I can connect to them?

Get Electric Vehicle

The idea here is that you can connect your EV to the power grid and flow power from your EV to the Grid. Simulation of the vehicle to a grid-connected system at a private charging station and finding how to flatten the load curve. Porsche Taycan). #10 Vehicle to Grid is a really interesting area to do projects. Thank you.
