    Taycan Electric Sport Sound, does it really affect range?

    Perhaps the sales agent's logic was as follows. Sport+ is the only driving mode where sport sound is "on" by default. Range is reduced in sport+ mode. Therefore range is reduced when you hear sport sound.

    Weather Stripping Turning Green

    You’re in Florida, with warmth and humidity, and you have something green appearing in a location of the Taycan where moisture is trapped. My first guess is it’s mold, fungus, or another living organism. It would not be my first thought to treat this with a rubber/plastic detailing product.

    trunk opens without key around

    Hmmm it could be a poltergeist. Either that, or the fact that the trunk button works as long as you leave the Taycan unlocked.

    Mistakes were made... 💸 (New Taycan GTS in Carmine Red)

    The linked dealership listing shows it with the same clear turn indicators as in your delivery photos. Does that mean you didn't have to ask them to swap them out? I love that they did that (since there's no safety impact, just violation of an anachronistic regulation) but I'm curious if they...

    Newbie questions

    Is delayed acceleration happening at a certain speed such as the posted speed limit? If so, you may need to explore the deeper settings for Innodrive, range mode, etc. I only experience delayed acceleration with (1) transmission shift in normal or range mode, and (2) in range mode with Porsche...

    LED Matrix Headlights

    Matrix headlights: this is probably true given the NHTSA's propensity for anachronistic regulations. L1 charging: in cold weather, a substantial amount of the output from the charger may be used to heat the battery, and to preheat the car if that setting is enabled. It seems plausible that in...

    Giving up my GTS order arriving next month

    Without plug and charge, it takes an extra 20 seconds or so to activate the free-for-three-years charging via the My Porsche app. Why do you say plug and charge is "a big one"?

    How to memory the Regen setting?

    This has been discussed in several other threads on this forum. One reason the recuperation setting reverts to default at each car power on is that is necessary for the U.S. energy economy rating test. Others have posted the regulation that says the test must be performed with the default...

    B-pillar option recommendations?

    The Taycan B-pillars are unusually wide, and positioned well forward of the seat backs, which forces many people to struggle to get past them, resulting in scratches to the B-pillars. Panamera B-pillars are narrower, and positioned further back with respect to the front seats.
