- 550M, 355GTS F1, Taycan CT4S J1.2
I see the same numbers for Q1 2024 & 2025 ?

Agree ?You should plan to have 30% more as everyone is saying in these forums.
So count 450km instead of your current 350km driving the same way.
That’s already good and you could skip a stop for some long distance trips
My experience with a Taycan (base model) loaner was that it showed 341 miles of range at 92% SoC. Compared to my 2021 4s, that is about 100-110 extra miles on a full charge.Is the range on the 25 GTS really that much extra vs the 23 4S to warrant all that extra cost to change?
having driven a J1.2 4S the difference wasn’t enough for me - 30-40 miles real-world on a full charge doesn’t change anything in terms of long journey planning really
The front end of the .2 is something that you buy the car in spite of…where as the front of the .1 was a big part of the appeal. *sigh*. Hopefully the balance between the designers and the engineers will yield a better outcome for the next gen….Porsche does one mid cycle refresh, that's it. Another style change before J2 would be extremely surprising.
I understand that J1.1 front end styling has an iconic quality to it that has struck many minds, but i find that the J1.2 sharper and more subtle design gives the J1.1 a dated look.

The softening of the .2 front-end styling is probably responsible for much of the increased range - can't have everything.The front end of the .2 is something that you buy the car in spite of…where as the front of the .1 was a big part of the appeal. *sigh*.

There were some comparisons done a while back... Bigger battery and wheels and tyres were the biggies.The softening of the .2 front-end styling is probably responsible for much of the increased range - can't have everything.
If you look back through the various Porsche models over decades, you’ll note that they have made very few notable aesthetic concessions in favor of engineering outcomes….The softening of the .2 front-end styling is probably responsible for much of the increased range - can't have everything.
