Soft close - that’s what I’m missing. Not available (in the UK at least) on the GT. Wonder why not?

Yes, large inverters, that was it. Thanks for the info. Great question regarding the no rear seat option.

I believe I read about the reason for it somewhere, but can I remember…

Day 4 observations: Two interesting things in the boot (trunk). 1) Charging cable included, and 2) less space than in my old Turbo S. The doors need more of a push to close them properly. Me and two other passengers failed to close the doors on several occasions (see photo below)...

Some more photos of GT in the wild.

Easy Entry in action. When activated, as soon as a door is opened, the body raises automatically by 55 millimetres. This makes it easier to get in and out. When the door closes, the Taycan lowers back down to the previous level.

On normal roads at normal speeds, probably not. I have been thinking of a practical experiment with a pendulum attached to the dashboard to see if I can measure the side-to-side and front-to-back (and vice versa) motion on cornering, acceleration and deceleration. Watch this space...

Not public highway so no legal speed limit right ;)

I have been using PAR since last Friday and I am getting used to staying flat and level through the many tight bends on the roads near my home. Also, the looks we get in Tesco car park are worth the cost ? If I hadn’t optioned it, I would have regretted it.

I will take some more photos when the rain stops. I will also post a video of Attack Mode in operation (I have a head mount for my iPhone.)

Looks like different hardware and software.

In Attack Mode, the power of the electric motors is set to maximum for a certain time (10 seconds IIRC.) I believe I have seen it called Push-to-Pass as well. I tried it for a few seconds in Normal drive mode yesterday. With a car this powerful, I am not sure I will need to do it again ? If...

Day 3 observation - recuperation kicked in this morning upon ACC-induced deceleration (when approaching a slower vehicle in front), but not when applying the brakes. I wasn’t expecting _any_ recuperation for a few hundred miles.

Still making up its mind…

Day 2 observations: No comfort entry on the GT. You mean I have to press the button on the key fob to unlock and lock - Nooooooooooooo! Unlock from the app works as well. The GT connects to my home WiFi. The Turbo S didn‘t. No idea what I’m going to use that for… The central display has fewer...

GoM reading a bit low. I’ll give it a few days to adapt to my driving…

Colour wheel on my new GT that I picked up today. Set to purple obviously ?

Me - “Taycan Turbo GT.” Mr admiral - “Taycan GTS.” Me - “No, Turbo GT.” Mr admiral - “That variant is not on our system.” Thank you and goodnight.

The dealer sent it away and paid for it, so I don’t know how much it cost - which is fine by me :)
