In my experience the charging with regen is quite minimal. Also the lowering in range mode will have some effect but quite minimal.
Biggest effect on range for me was reducing the temperature and eco pro mode in the winter and reducing the speed. It switched of heating increasing the range a...
I just had a look at the Porsche Canada site. I presume it is the one in Toronto. You should have a look at the standard equipment at the bottom of the option list for the GTS. It has much more standard options than the 4S. Like PTV + and sport chrono and the GT wheel.
The only thing I don’t...
ACC for me is really important. I use it all the time. The ACC radar is also necessary for emergency braking at higher speeds. That is another reason for me to always option ACC. It has saved me twice in previous cars.
Good point. Should be standard in an EV , certainly at this price range. But in Europe it isn’t. Don’t know about Northern America. Some surprises on this forum with people who forgot to order it. Same for folding mirrors and non blinding mirrors. Also optional in Europe.
If it has a sport chrono nob it is a GT sport steering wheel.
Are you sure about the 4S ? If it doesn’t have a sport steering wheel, it doesn’t have sport chrono either. Which would be really weird.
I think that PTV+, power steering plus and GT sport steering wheel are standard on the GTS.
strange that the 2022 doesn’t have the GT sport wheel. It comes standard with the sport chrono package. And I think with PDCC and PTV sport chrono is needed.
the side skirts usually come with sport...
I heard the Porsche technicians at Spa during a meeting and the Weissach is designed for track purpose. Doesn’t really make sense to drive it like a daily driver just to show you have more bragging rights than an GT.
Even if the reason is the 800V system I don’t think it’s an excuse. For Webasto and for Porsche. At this price range they should have tested it thoroughly. Maybe even Porsche more than Webasto. Hundreds of cars needing a repair and going in for sometimes weeks not being able to drive in cold...
Looks nice but still expensive for a 3 year old car. The manager lives really close to the dealership with less than 5000 km.
Just checked on the Belgian site and lots of 2 year old GTS for around 100 k and 4s for much less. Even some facelift versions 4S coming close.
If you can live to with...
Other issue. But just heard someone with a 22 kw charger defect collected at home and repaired at Porsche Centre East Flanders within 24 hours. Good service !
I never went above 22 degrees and first freezing in December fritzed my heater. Maybe your are just lucky. And afterall a large % of owners don’t see any problems. Maybe you will never have a problem. But a too high % of other unlucky knes does have the issues.
I had well below 10 kWh/ 100 km driving from Sankt Moritz over the Maloja pass to Menagio at Lago Di Como. First part was even negative, charging the battery. But that could be considered cheating because it was a decent from 1800 to 200 meters above sea level. Sorry no pictures. Was 2 years ago.
I returned my Taycan to the leasing company 2 years ago. So I have some experience on this.
I tried a second hand dealer and they just don’t want them. They have to give one year warranty and the risk is to high. They know by know what they potentially are getting into and why people want to...
After seeing all names I thought it should be Heidi. But off course it should be Schatzi now that I saw it. Just retuned from the Austrian Alps. Schatzi bar, the song Schatzi schick mir in foto. It should be Schatzi.
If you set a destination in navigation the range prediction is really accurate. Even when driving through the mountains or really cold / hot climates. Germany is an exception when driving more than 140 km/h. Range after charging just reflects your drive style before you parked the car.
If your...
