Personally I would recommend HUD which I position very low so that I only see the MPH — and also can see NAV direction indicators when using the Porsche NAV. I also adjust the brightness so it isn’t too bright so as not to be distracting. After tweaking the HUD this way I wouldn’t be without as...
Let me add that if one is going to compare 2 different Taycans that the only way to do it scientifically is to use the same wheels and tires. Tires especially make a big difference on any car. You can clearly feel a difference in the same car by changing to a different tire model. I myself have...
2023 RWD at 26,000 miles is absolutely the best all around car for real world driving I’ve ever owned. Incredibly solidly built and not a single rattle. Only criticism is excessive highway tire noise with either 19” and 20” wheels even though my spec includes the optional noise insulating...
I would recommend sitting in both the 14-way and the 18-way seats first before purchasing to see which you prefer. Some people prefer the 14-way to the 18-way for example. Seats choice is very important from my perspective!
Less wide - (Panamera EV for those who want a larger wide car)
Less weight
Shorter front overhang
Manual charge door standard again
Physical knobs on console
Less road noise, especially on highway - maybe even make a super quiet option available
Quieter blinkers
Quieter Rear trunk beeper...
Congratulations!
Can you share your spec?
Also was your lease deal only because it was in stock? Or could you have ordered a specific spec to be built and delivered in a few months for that kind of money?
Are you using 20" wheels with Michelin PS4S or Michelin PS4 NF0 tires?
Also would you say ActiveRide is noticeably quieter at highway speeds as well as on broken pavement?
I have Nokian R5 on 20” wheels:

Personally having driven an RS6 I prefer the Taycan. Another alternative is the new version of the Panamera available as a PHEV. Eventually there will be a Panamera EV but that‘s in the distant future.
What size and make/model tires came on your 2025?
And what size and make/model tires (and if you recall the ending tire mileage when you traded it) were on your 21 2S?
Would you say that your 25 4S w/Active Ride is noticeably quieter on the highway than your 21 4S?
Better noise isolation at highway speeds, especially over rough pavement. If they wish to make more money, Porsche could make it an option and charge more for it. Honestly adding 100-200 lbs or so of noise isolation material wouldn’t be that noticeable on a 5000 lb car.
