Yeah, some of the mules have a normal roof, but some have the double bubble roof.

I think the production car will have a double bubble roof
i think there will be several variants. normal roof, panoramic roof (also flat) and double bubble roof probably turbo variants in my mind.........

I asked PAG_J1 and he said no but it appears that the Porsche logo/lettering is indee iluminated which from behind at night will make quite an impact. Doenst look to be a reflection from the full width bar.

It won't be illuminated on production cars. But Maybe they use it only for the reveal.

I dont think the letters are chromed. The lettering on the taycan sits behind a glass panel unlike the new 911.
Yes, they will be behind a glass Panel and they were in silver but not really in chrome.

I´m not saying they installed diferent side skirts...maybe they removed some tape or something like that..it does look diferent...but as you said,..perception

These are the same side skirts as I saw on the production Taycan. So I can confirm them for final Version. You can order them even in Carbon (at least for Turbo versions).

PAG_J1,
My apologies if this was already asked, but there is still some hope for the Mission E rear spoiler from some of us. Can you confirm that the rear spoiler will be what is shown now on the prototypes and not similar to the pic attached.

I had to look at the Mission E rear spoiler again and I must admit that I do like the look of it better than what we currently see on the prototypes:)

I didn't drive the car. So therefore I don't saw the final rear spoiler (because it was folded in the rear of the car) and can't confirm, which Version will be in the production car...

PAG_J1 - when you way the rear spoiler was 'folded', do you mean 'in the retracted position'? If so, then we won't have the permanent spoiler shown on the mission E.

I found this here on twitter.

OK, something is going on, it's definitely starting to look different - more and more like the Mission E everytime I see it - different to the earlier mules.

And Porsche keep using the Mission E in promo - only possible, surely, if the differences are so small between the E and Taycan that they can't be easily spotted, right? Very minor details - I doubt it'll look exactly the same, but I'm starting to have hope the differences will be so minor you can't spot them at a first glance, unless you look very close

Maybe this is all wishful thinking on my part, but the mules are definitely starting to look slightly different now

Also look at the gap between the wheel arches and the wheels, those mules are still ridiculously jacked up, real Taycan will sit much lower

See what I mean? They used the Taycan hashtag in what appears to be a Mission E photo

Also, Misleading advertising is prohibited under the German Act against Unfair Competition, so they couldn't advertise the Mission E picture for the Taycan unless it will look so similar that one would need to look very close to tell the difference.

"the characteristics of goods or services, such as their availability, nature, execution, composition, method and date of manufacture or provision, fitness for purpose, uses, quantity, specification, geographical or commercial origin or the results to be expected from their use, or the results and material features of tests or checks carried out on those goods or services"

For several reasons it may not look exactly like the Mission E, but I'm now fairly confident it won't look like a Panamera - from any angle
