Not in USA, but here in Switzerland, it’s a 1/3 chance for the charging to start at 250kw Tesla chargers specifically. It’s quite frustrating.
I have also had red ring of death errors several times from Tesla 250ke chargers specifically - and porsche road assistance has told me it common and...
It does, and it is in testing at nurburing every day since january. On the initial EV only platform.
No official announcment window, but my dealer is certain it will be in client "hands" by summer 2027
ICE/Hybrid variants will release sometimes in 2030, only in "top spec model line", on a...
Horrendous
The interior looks nice though - only 3 materials: matte aluminium/metal, corning gorilla glass ( and leather. All physical switches, no software buttons.
Underneath the camo, it has front bumper and intake like the new 911 with electric turbos (so gts and turbo s) + taycan headlights. The camo bumper adds at least 5-10 cm of extra length.
The rear, under the camo, is another light bar with porsche logo lighting in blue. The whole light bar can...
As a test?
So as usual, the end customer is the testing platform?
Or is this not the final update?
This company is so far removed from the concept of proper software rollout and maintenance that is a bit pathetic… they seem to be 20 years behind
I guess the whole taycan was a test product...
If you turn off the car manually, from the power button, it will pop a notification on the center screen as it turns off with a check box to turn off passenger monitoring. So you deactivate it from there.
That’s the only reliable way to do it
The treatment in germany seems to differ widely. Some people are getting denied the campaign.
While others are getting letters about it, as if it's a recall:
Truly, consistent premium german car experience :D that comes after 9-10 months of the navigation being broken.
If it were a...
Taycan production going on breaks for a few days every month by the looks of it.

You guys are exagerating a bit... the grill is literarly copy+pasted in design from their 2 door sport amg.
Beside the lightbar/headlights, the front looks like a mercedes, with or without the star.
The back 6 circle lights stay aligned with the concept car, and is definitely more unique than...
The car had 2 different sounds before also, but they were tied to driving modes, not manually selectable.
Sport+ driving mode would play a more aggresive sound, likely what's called Sport now.
And all other drive modes would play a less aggresive one, like what's called normal now.
But that...
I think the looks will grow on people.
Taycan headlights / front with the “tears” was hated on lunch across the internet. And now it’s considered “better” than the facelift by many and a good unique look
They’re not, but they are somewhere in between j1.1 and j1.2. Definitely no “tear”.
A good compromise, as a lot of people hated the j1.1 “tears” on lunch, and the discourse was much similar to how it is for the new merecedes ev
CT14 has reported that isolation faults are very common, and almost all the batteries he opens have some water damage.
I would suspect the battery is compromised due to water damage, and porsche should have replaced it whole, but they arent’t, because porsche is a “premium” German brand.
They also require in Switzerland, and they have required video every time I had to bring the car to service for this issues, probably more than 6-7 times.
The problem is, as long as the car had warranty, they cannot deny you support, but to be able to invoice it to Porsche mothership they need...
2 people with the update started reporting that the issues are still there. For now both cars are 2023. Stos has had his PCM hardware replaced earlier this year also, so new pcm + WTG1 - and still the issue.
Not 100% true. There are extra and bigger audio speakers on the inside and outside, dedicated to replicating engine noises.
Spy shots of the interior of the cayman shows them messing with the seats, so likely there will be vibration motors in the seats also - similar to the new Mercedes that...
