    Taycan Data Package

    The eSim is used by the car to connect to the Porsche mothership to perform behind the scene updates like navigation map updates. I don’t know if the Wi-Fi (when enabled) will be part of the extra cost data package. The connection to an external hotspot is the most interesting option if it is...

    Taycan Data Package

    The Taycan uses an eSim which you cannot change. The external hotspot functionality has not yet been enabled (same with the Taycan’s WiFi functionality).

    do I really need Sport Chrono?

    I have sport chrono on my 4S. I usually drive in sport, sport+, or individual and do change the mode so the dial on the wheel is very handy. Sport+ does make additional changes to the suspension stiffness and lowers the car even more than Sport. I like it and use it. The clock although retro is...

    Phone holders for the Taycan - what are you using?

    While the car's built in Qi charger is great for charging, it becomes useless when you need to see the phone's screen for some key apps especially if you have an Android phone (A Better Route Planner, Waze, Highway Patrol, JBV1 for Valentine 1, etc.). It is more to see the device screen versus...

    My Car bleeps now when locking

    Perhaps I got lucky because it was an early build. I don't have the folding mirrors so sometimes I need to hit the lock button on the fob again to visually confirm by the flashing lights that the doors are locked.

    Porsche Experience Center (PEC) LA Taycan Delivery Experience

    I did the PEC ATL driving experience back in February. I had the instructor in car experience (pre-COVID) in a Taycan Turbo S and was told that the Taycans used at the PEC would not be available for sale given the type of driving they were subjected to. Trust me you do not want your brand new...

    Phone holders for the Taycan - what are you using?

    I ordered a few different cup holder phone cradles, but none were great. I remembered that many years ago I used some custom cradles and phone mounts from ProClip. Last night I went on the the website proclipusa.com and was pleased to see that they had a custom mount available for the Taycan...

    All chargers down at EA HQ in Reston

    I haven’t been stranded yet at an EA charger. I’ve had about 12 sessions at various locations on the East Coast. On one occasion the 350 kw charger was down so I had to use a 150 kw charger which only added about 10 minutes to my stopover.

    NEMA 14-50 Supply cable heat data

    It is not the exact same part. The one for the e-hybrids will not fit the Taycan PMCC. I ordered the 14-50 supply cable post delivery. The cable that you mentioned came in and it turned out it was for the Panamera e-hybrid and would not fit because the fitting into the PMCC for the Taycan is...

    Charging America App Not Speaking...

    In my Taycan, I have 24 of the 25 services activated. The 25th is the security package which costs extra. Depending on what you purchased when you ordered the car, (e.g. Intelligent Range Manager) some of the 24 may be available for purchase post delivery. Here is the list: Apple Music...

    Charging America App Not Speaking...

    If I remember correctly it took a day or two after I picked up my car for all of the 24 services to be activated. Since you are able to use the Charging App, it sounds like your dealer activated the account. I assume that you also received an email (usually before you pick up your car) to...

    Charging America App Not Speaking...

    Although you will find the Taycan's wifi network, Porsche has not enabled the hotspot functionality so you cannot use it to connect to the internet. It is rare to have all 4 segments to be green. In general it does not affect your ability to use the various services. The Taycan uses its own...

    Mission E Wheels or Taycan Exclusive Wheels for 4S buyers?

    It probably depends on the exterior color of your Taycan. The black calipers will work. If you want a bit of pop the white calipers really highlight how huge they are. The surface coated brakes make the rims so easy to maintain (lack of brake dust).

    Mission E Wheels or Taycan Exclusive Wheels for 4S buyers?

    I remember when you did the mock up. It will look awesome. You will really like the Mamba Green in person. The color does not come through well on the screen. It has a ton of metallic flake and shifts colors with the light.

    Mission E Wheels or Taycan Exclusive Wheels for 4S buyers?

    Mission E was one of my must haves to compliment the uniqueness of the Taycan. I get lots of positive comments. Mine are silver.

    What happened to DC Fast Chargers at Porsche dealers?

    @LonePalmBJ - I was at Hennessy this past Wed to get the software update. You are correct, there were a bunch of Taycans in the lot. I missed seeing the chargers. Fyi, there are some fairly new EA chargers not too far away. They are near the Chili's restaurant. Although they are all 150kW...
