These are some crazy battery degradations guys. Driven my previous Taycan 4 CT, i4M 50, 2 Tesla model 3 (LR and Performance), iX3 and Macan EV now and never had even remotely same degradation. Maybe 3-4% max and actually almost always would get better range over time. Most km I did was my Tesla...

My new Taycan will be built in May - so assume this will be standard by then right ?

What’s the purpose of/ outcome of this update?

it’s about choosing a cool color you like and having it coincide with Porsche PTS which is being offered at non-PTS price on a particular model. Ie Oak Green Neo - that’s a legend and a PTS normally but available on current gen Porsches at ~3.5-4K premium. for me was a no brainer - previous was...

Just yo-yo it as others have said, works on every EV. Sport mode, hard accelerate-decelerate to max regen, do it like 10-20 times just before HPC charger arrival (when 3-5km out), then arrive in hot and go max regen plus breaks into the stall?. Not same as full precondition but will raise...

Thank you for checking! In any event it looks like the matrix functionality is there and auto high beam (otherwise why matrix right?) so that should be plenty enough! As a side note - I can confirm also that Macan EV standard lights don’t swivel

Just saw similar spec CT refresh parked on my weekend trip to Norway. On pics the new grille and lack of “tears” seemed not as good as the original Taycan, but in real life the refresh is so amazing. Also same rims as in my spec - the Turbo S Aero style 20”s. What a car! Placed the order. Can’t wait

Just to get this right - the EU one’s standard Matrix ones (not the HD upgrade) have auto high beam and can disable/focus up to 13 zones on the highway right? Not much interested in swivel just auto high beams and disabling them partially for oncoming traffic

Interesting feedback, I've driven my Macan4 in Amsterdam for about 2600km since September 2024 (travelling a lot and mainly driven my 2025 Panamera in Dubai). Have to say if comparing to the old Taycan and the Panamera - the Macan feels made of cheap plastic. While I haven't experienced full...

That’s the thing - I don’t have the old Taycan anymore. I traded it in for the Macan 4, which is a decent EV, but doesn’t give the thrills that Taycan did. And seeing the new 4CT is now 4.7 sec down from old one 5.1sec plus 120-140km extra range it might be the perfect fit. Obviously this...

After owning the Mamba Green Taycan 4CT (stil in profile pic), I've went onwards to: - Panamera 2025 RWD, V6, non-hybrid (still have it, its my Dubai ride) - Macan4 CT (many posts over at Macan EV forums) Now I have decieded to sell (as trade-in from Porsche isn't great) the Macan 4 (prices...

2023 model I have (CT4) is pretty flawless SW wise, 8 months of ownership and only minor issues: - 2-3 times the PCM was stuck (and only 1 time I had to let it sit for some time to unblock), rest just 2 finger reset worked flawless - 2 times PCM touch functionality gone until restart of car...

I5 is outdated tech on release, battery and motors based on i4, which is 400v architecture and just 81-82kwh net. i owned the i4 M50 and made the switch to Taycan 4 CT and never regretted even for a second

Get a black gloss rim paint and a small brush, plenty of $20 packages online. And paint it simply. No one will ever see. Once you plan to sell or have much more damage you can do a professional repair all rims at once. So basically it’s nothing

Truth is Chinese manufacturers are really stepping up the game and cost/performance wise are becoming crazy good. The top ones like Geely with Zeekr001 and the Lotus Eletre (also Geely essentially), as well as the new refreshed Polestar 2 with many optimisations and tweaks (the Performance...

As many have answered - don’t trust the guessometer. Just charge 100%, reset trip counter and see how much kWh you’ve used up / km driven until 0% (or close to). Or if you don’t have the time for this- just drive constant speed 60mph/100kmh on calm day (to avoid wind effect ) and see you average...

it shows which motor is currently engaged. in this case rear. this has been most likely removed in newer firmware updates, as I've for one never seen this screen either in the 4CT (which is dual motor)

Try Hankook ION EVO they seem to be getting crazy scores

It will probably level out indeed. If you see sticker prices of new EVs for which there is no secondary market yet, you will cry. BMW i5 M60 costing 108K no options. And it’s inferior 400V architecture and smaller battery (85kwh gross, 81 net). New Chinese cars (Polestar3, Zeekr1, etc)...

This is way more than regular depreciation. If you check 4-5 year old Panamera (E-hybrid or normal), they are still selling for 60% original sticker (in NL you can look up original fiscal value, maybe other countries as well). Where taycans from 2020-2021 (so 2-3 year old cars) are selling...
