Is it fine to drive PHEV at 0% charge?

But doesn't that leave your $875 EVSE/CCID exposed to vandals? Both connectors might be locked but the guts are right out there, no?

 

I'd think anyone willing to mess with the cord is likely going to mess with the car itself.

In Europe, at least the UK, the public AC EVSE/chargers don't have a cord. The car supplies the cord.

 

The default setting is locked when inserted and the remote unlock must be pressed to remove the J1772 connector from the car.

There are two other settings - 2) lock when inserted - unlock when complete, and 3) no lock.

 

Yes you can, I do it nearly every day. I got a $110 aftermarket charge device, but it’s a heavy unit, too darn heavy and bulky. There are others for about $100-125. So I still use the $845 plus tax oe unit so far. The car locks the handle,and on chargepoint stations with the metal door, the plug is locked. Yes they could cut off the ends of a live wire, or wait till charging stops, but that gets unlikely. They could unplug an exposed plug though, and break the handle out of the car socket by force I think. May be more likely.
I only have a 2020, you have a lot more battery so it will take longer. On the other hand, I find myself keeping the charge in the middle area most of the time so don’t even want to full charge, most of the time. 1.5 hours walking the dog equates to about 30% charge for me. So if I go from 40% to 70% it’s what I prefer. I use only about 20-25 % every day.
