Day 10: Lofoten (Norway) → Bødo (Norway)
Despite many attempts we failed to get the destination chargers started throughout the weekend. We did see the other Taycan owner use them – so they do work. We suspect perhaps they needed a Norwegian issued payment card.
Instead, we grabbed a charge at a nearby 150 kW Mer station the night before.
Packing up the car in a now familiar process.
Driving north up the islands on now familiar roads.
Stopping off to admire the scenery.
Until we reach the ferry at Lødingen with less than ten minutes to spare.
Unlike the other "road" ferries this crossing lasts a full hour and has a covered vehicle deck.
It is very cold out on deck.
But offers stunning views.
Stopping off for a charge soon after disembarking direct onto the E6.
Continuing southbound in the -10c cold.
Grabbing some supplies at a fuel station - realising that it has been years since we've used a petrol pump!
As we near Bodø – we cross the 30,000 km service milestone after 14 months with this car.
As we won't get a destination charge tonight - we grab some energy at a Recharge station that is only two kilometers from our hotel. There are a lot more charging options at Bodø compared to when we were here only two years ago. IONITY are also building a station here – but it is not yet ready to use.
