Which dealer did you end up going with? (I'm in the South Bay Area too)

Your math looks right if it's a single DC motor. But it's AC and 3 phases x Front/Rear, so... actual instantaneous current will be more complicated depending on how they quoted the 560kW output number. this article (great read) also quotes some peak current numbers for the front and rear...

This independent test by Tire Reviews on Youtube also gives a different perspective. Instead of EV tires vs normal tires, he compares ECO tires vs its mainstream tire (same marketing name).

1) I presume this doesn't come with the tires? (worth asking). 2) Nice new wheels. Did you notice any real world range degradation?

Porsche Connect and My Porsche apps offer remote pre-cool and pre-heat functionalities. These are useful for days when you want to be welcomed into a nice comfortable cabin on entry. But does anyone know if Hey Siri/Google integration is available? It's a lot easier to tell Siri to pre...

thanks for sharing and documenting the experience. I live in San Jose and I am considering doing the same at some point.

This is a much more elegant way to move the passenger's seat up/down than trying to lean over and reach down...

@FrozenRobert, I bet you could capture the Aurora one of those nights in Edmonton.

2020 4S daily driver. System just warned me to replace key FOB battery today.

how/where do you turn the trunk beeper off?

Has anyone ever plotted battery self heating/preservation drainage vs temperature? Bjorn has done it for warm weather in the link here:

I think from the poll results it's safe to say the Taycan is a great daily driver. :cool: I don't feel so bad putting on 6k miles in 6 months then.

I love my Taycan -- my first EV. Going electric lifted the guilt of "wasting gas" while cruising around and driving on a twisty road, and it made me realize how much I love driving a well built sporty car. Better yet, I get to enjoy it every day going to/from work, picking up the kids...

LOL indeed. PCCB makes sense on RWD Taycans. I am guessing the 265kW max recuperation is limited by the BMS / charging circuits, and not by the individual front/rear motors themselves (since DC fast charging is also around 270kW max). Rear motor on RWD Taycan is still ~400 hp ~= 300kW in...

Agreed -- the motor applies a negative torque based on brake pedal input. And the torque is modulated by a current to wheel torque mapping of some sort? And being in 1st or second is just a DC multiplier in that equation. I get this part. My curiosity is, theoretically, there should be ways...

Taycan famously integrated the first 2-speed transmission in an BEV in the name of performance -- namely faster acceleration. But has anyone ever wondered why you don't feel any brake feel difference in recuperation whether you're in 1st or 2nd gear? I emailed Porsche and got no response, and...

Lol you’re the first one to ask. I put it in just to see if people are paying attention. ?

I have rattles too, and irritates me like crazy. I'm gonna try Chrisk's fix with some foam and report back. In all fairness to Porsche, part of the reason the rattle is more obvious is obviously because there is less noise from a BEV than an ICE car. Sometimes I just fix the rattle while...
