    No issues connecting first try here (latest IOS version though).

    Taycan outperforms EPA range estimate by the widest margin in Edmunds EV Range and Consumption Test

    Depends on the regen setting. On, your car will slow down. Off, you will probably hold speed (force from gravity = force from wind resistance), depending of course on speed. Depends on the regen setting. On, your car will likely continue accelerating, but slowly. Off, your car will accelerate...

    Taycan outperforms EPA range estimate by the widest margin in Edmunds EV Range and Consumption Test

    Slowing down, or maintaining speed while going downhill will *always* be using regen (aside from 100% full battery or maybe first 500 miles of ownership). The regen on/off setting doesn't turn regen on or off - it ONLY controls whether or not the car will utilize some regen capability to slow...

    Deeply disappointed with 4S -- 12V battery issue and "Electrical System Error"

    Keep in mind you mostly hear the negative on the forum. The 80% - 90% of the buyers who have had no issues probably haven't posted negative things.

    Taycan outperforms EPA range estimate by the widest margin in Edmunds EV Range and Consumption Test

    Turbo with 21" wheels and I did 270 miles last summer on about 90% of the usable battery capacity (started with 100% SOC, finished with 10%). Warm battery, warm air so no heating and limited need for AC, 65 - 75 MPH most of the way, all flat, all highway. It is more efficient to cruise at a...

    Assume you meant AC - US is 60 HZ.

    Can I connect the Taycan to my home wifi?

    I actually believe this car has two IP addresses, one for the telematics (OTA module - always or at least periodically on) and one for PCM. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Porsche's agreement with AT&T or Verizon doesn't provide for the telematics connection to be unreachable except from...

    Can I connect the Taycan to my home wifi?

    ^ This (I have terrible cell service at home). It also opens up a potential channel for hacking the car (though of course it may be possible to do so over the cellular connection as well, but much more difficult). ^ and this

    What’s the deal with the tire pressure deviation screen?

    There is no switch per-se, you change the installed tire type or size in PCM menus, then change it back. The change is what triggers the PCM to start the re-learn process. Also note that the PCM will tell you the correct partial load pressure - the door sticker will tell you the full load...

    Clicking Sound From the Rear

    Pressure or position sensor error, or air leak in the pneumatic shock on that corner.

    Possible to drive on empty / zero battery / charge? Any reserves?

    To add one thing to andrewket's excellent response, it is not electrically possible to directly measure the state of charge of Li-Ion cells. I believe it is chemically possible but not practical. Hence all the calculation and estimation pointed out in his answer.

    How is your US State or Country Doing with EV Charges?

    I'll be the first in line to bitch about paying taxes, however in this case I have to agree with paying an additional registration fee for an EV. In NC, we have a high gasoline tax (not California high, but higher than our neighbors in TN, VA and SC) and that tax revenue is the primary source of...

    Rear light strip with 'PORSCHE' logo in black??

    Red LED illuminated PORSCHE on an otherwise plain light strip would be a nice compliment to the red bar, IMHO.

    Porsche admits “connect” broken

    The key here is that on the website (not Connect App) the car info (SOC, mileage) is out of date. That's a sure indicator of loss of connectivity between the car and Porsche telematics server. Top two causes are no cell signal (e.g. car is parked underground) or faulted OTA module. Both will...

    Porsche admits “connect” broken

    If your OTA module is misbehaving, you won't have any Connect App functions nor website control, but you will remain logged in, with your last/current settings applied, and you will have functioning Apple Music, Weather and other internet features. If you factory reset you will be removed as a...

    Emergency Call function error

    These sound like related issues with one of the car's two cellular radios (OTA module and PCM). However definitely not a good thing that they didn't figure it out on the first (or maybe even second) time in for service...

    All Wheel System Failure

    This could have been the brakes - with the Model S, if I parked it for more than 24 hours with the discs / pads wet, this exact thing (felt like brakes were on then would give way with a bang) would happen. Never in conjunction with a drive system warning or error though. The Taycan drive...

    Porsche admits “connect” broken

    At this point I would be very surprised if dealers were missing anything. That would be the first thing PCNA would fix were it to be the source of any of the issues. I think it's luck of the draw. That said, don't jump the gun and create a Porsche ID - wait for the dealer to generate an...

    Just ordered 19.2 kW AC On-Board Charger.

    Never thought of this (disabling all profiles). My net result would be the same - at 25 miles per hour charging, unless I had a really low SOC, it wouldn't start until off-peak hours to be finished at 6am anyway. No - this is what a timer is for. Timer sets maximum, profile sets minimum.
