I had the Michelin Alpin 5,s on my Tesla model x EV . They were great under dry and wet conditions. Shouldn’t be an issue for the Taycan .

I have used a lectron adapter with my 2016 Tesla level 2 wall charger since 2020 and have had no issues with multiple vehicles ( lucid, BMW, Porsche). I highly recommend the Brand. The risk of fire or vehicle damage with a lesser unknown brand (although remote) would be a concern for me...

Degradation is also related to how the battery is charged . If you were using DC fast charging most of the time and charging to 90 or 100 percent you likely have more degradation.

Over 6500 miles - mostly local driving - per the Porsche app - I am averaging 3.5kw on my 2023 GTS Sport turismo - 21 inch spyder wheels. I would be Very happy with this consumption. No idea if this is accurate or not.

In Ct I believe they can still sell the car as new - if the car has never been previously registered . I agree with the other comments - if mileage is ultra low - it is more. Comment on the dealer punching the car for the manufacturer than it being a used car. Only downside is the loss of...

Porsche assistive drive features are far behind other automakers. ALK works like the feature in my 2019 mercedes or my 2017 tesla . It’s unreliable and doesn’t inspire confidence . If you never had it before you might think it’s cool but compared to BMW or mercedes now it’s years behind .

Also Dealers were pigs - selling cars over MSRP and adding overpriced dealer add ons . Post Covid Porsche has been a different company. I would also add that other automakers not just the Chinese have upped their game in improving their cars handling and quality. BMW electric

I have heard of this before - with a BMW electric. I fail to understand why the charging company or the manufacturer take responsibility for this issue . Clearly it is not the vehicle operators fault . If the vehicle operator can short out the charging port by doing something than it is a...

It seems like the 2020 Taycan’s are a winner or a lemon . I had a 2020 turbo built in May of 2020 and it was great . No issues over 16 months of ownership. Many earlier builds especially those from 2019 build dates had many issues I did not have. The battery issue will either be a nothing...

I have had excellent service for my Taycan at two local dealerships. One owned by Penske. I have heard only certain techs have EV credentials so that impacted battery recalls but I have not experienced the delays you speak of as the dealers here take the car in when they know they can do the...

Also would be a car play ultra fan. It would be great if available for my 2023 Taycan. I wont be surprised though if it’s only a future gen option or maybe available on Gen 1.2

Difference between turbo and GTS is negligible and I’m not sure you would notice outside of driving it on the track . GTS has plenty of power and basically the same handling .

Porsche made improvements every year from 2021 to 2024 in the J1. The biggest had to do with the heater and battery efficiency. I had a 2020 turbo Taycan and now own a 2023 Taycan GT sport turismo. I concur with your comments about the CT/ ST configuration being superior to the sedan...

I haven’t driven a cross turismo but I can’t imagine taking it off road. I own a BMW IX which is fantastic although clearly more of an SUV than the Taycan and doesn’t drive on road anything like the Taycan.

Given the options you’re looking for you should look at a GTS sport turismo also.

Note i am told that something like 2 percent of the cars actually have a defect in the battery. All cars are recalled so they can check If there is a defect. It’s possible this number may go higher but it is not a systemwide design default but rather a manufacturing quality issue. I have had...

I have Porsche factory puddle light and there pretty lame. Just the Porsche name in white leds. These look much nicer and a lot cheaper.

I have a 2023 St GTS and 12 volt battery died after 3 weeks parked in my garage . Cold temps so garage was regularly 45 degrees . Towed it to dealer who recharged 12volt battery and said nothing wrong. Dealer says if car is not driven for two weeks in cold weather it is common for 12 volt...

There are two many 12 volt battery issues . I had my car die because it was not driven for about ten days also . This is clearly a design defect. I have had other electric vehicles and none have this issue .

Was your two year warranty and extended warranty that was purchased by the original owner at inception. When the Taycan was in demand dealers tacked on extended warranty’s to pad their profits. Also if the car is still under a factory warranty it is easier to get an extended warranty. My...
