This is a very nice simple article explaining some of the cosmetic bits that in my view absolutely unnecessary. They must have consulted Toyota Camry outgoing design folks for the front and rear chisel pieces and other Korean car makers who like to slice and dice front and back bumpers with plastic objects. Also, removed unique scoops around the headlights as they are flush now, groundbreaking...

Thx for sharing. I personally still prefer our Gen 1 styling. Not a fan of the sharp angles

I suspect limiting it to the plastic bits front and rear minimises the amount of type approval they need to do.

I think it's a mistake removing the "jowls" at the front. That's a distinctive Taycan feature and it'll look bland without them.

No change at the side.

Rear mod is very subtle and perhaps provides a bit more interest and follows the "vent" theme.

The dents in the nose look stupid. Glad I have what I have.

Not sure if it's just me but clicking your link goes to carscoop's homepage? Anyway, this is the full link: https://www.carscoops.com/2023/10/c...-taycan-shows-off-newly-chiselled-cheekbones/

The front view is a major downgrade. I'll pass.

Have to wonder what's going on w/ German sport/sporty vehicle designers. The latest BMW 3s look like they took a leaf from the Edsel front-end IMO. As far as this picture of the new Taycan ... I'd like to see it in person but I'm thinking it's not heading in the right direction.

If that is real, this "Refresh" is worse in every single way that it's different from the original.
I mean, every single external change is a "WTF" style modification. Looks like a bad tuner job to my eyes.

Glad I have the "classic" version!

Ew. Maybe it's not supposed to look like that and the driver whacked the car next to it pulling out of the parking spot.

This thread is not going to age well ? In a few years we are the losers with the old looking first gen.

Not a fan of the front end but the rear looks pretty good

I can't stop thinking this car is still slightly disguised...
Some body gaps and assembly don't add up with what Porsche is used to produce. The "cheeks" are not well integrated ; they might be camo as well as the bumper not being definitive.
Plus the Mission E wheels are somewhat fake too...
