Perhaps we would not all need this if Jaguar Land Rover had not screwed us over by blocking companies from providing smart charging such as Octopus. It’s not our fault your software is not good enough. Plenty of other companies allow it. You have now increased our charging costs and stopped energy companies balancing the grid as much, so negative environmental impact. Not good enough.
It’s about time JLR sorted themselves out and reinstated the ability for owners to smart charge their cars with companies like Octopus and OVO. It’s a disgusting shame that you are claiming security when in fact we all know it’s pure pathetic profiteering. You new protocols are easily bypassed by the people you claim to be excluding so it’s definitely nothing to do with security. For once would JLR actually show that it in fact cares for its customers, and more importantly, the environment….
I can't see how to set a target charge level which means it keeps charging until it reaches 100%. I'm a low mileage user who doesn't need 100% after every charge.
You can’t. The charging system is very basic and leaves alot to be desired. You should be able to set a percentage charge eg 80% . You should be able to set it to charge only in certain time periods etc. I tend to work out roughly when it’s going to get to 80% and set an alarm on the phone which is pretty poor for a quality car.
Jaguar going all electric by 2025 😂😂😂

How can a company like this get this so wrong?
Are they the only electric cars that have done this?

@nickmiller3501 I read this afternoon in an i-Pace forum that you can choose a target charge level from MY22 onwards but I have MY21!
