It took 21mins. I don’t see a battery charge health option, pretty sure Porsche withdrew it as the batteries are resilient enough not to need throttled DC charging.
This sums it up nicely.
I’ve posted some detailed comments/observations and have found the same range improvement as Perry.
Porsche has delivered on this refresh+.

Once you start a DC charging session you cannot change the target % via the slider, so you have to set it before you begin the charge, seems odd the target cannot be set on the fly while charging. Not sure what happens during AC charging.
I visited a 350kW Ionity charger this afternoon to test the new speed/curve.
Arrived with 7% SoC
Outside temp was 18 degrees
Battery temp was about 22 degrees C (did not have time to fully pre-heat, but the new charging screen showed it was within the ideal range).
Charger did not appear...
It is described as Vodafone VTS, was not offered or aware there is a 'plus' version that appears to include remote immobilisation of the car, that would have been nice.
It does have the dreaded driver fobs, but these are the smaller/older card types (still too fat for a wallet) rather than the...
some further thoughts/observations:
Innodrive is no longer a specific mode, there are a bunch of extra 'assistance' settings you can set, this is cleaner and simpler
Active Lane Keep (ALK) now works with a smoothness and precision you'd expect of a car of this level. The standard Lane Keep...
I also came from an RS6 to Taycan and ironically now value quietness! Tyre ware on Taycan is grim but you only live once. I have just bought a set of 20" wheels with PS4's on them, will report back once I get a chance to fit them.
I'm seeing similar, 10-15% efficiency improvement, nearly choked on my coffee this morning when I checked and saw 3.0 miles/kWh nearing the end of a 40 mile regular journey (only had efficiency starting with a '3' once in 3 years and 54k miles in my previous taycan). In the end I only acheived...
I'm in the UK with summer Hankooks, but I've not had the chance to really push the tyres yet but they are more noisy than the 20" Pirellis on my previous 2021 CT. However, I also notice that there is more general cabin noise, for example, in the rain I'd never hear other cars when passing them...
thanks.
it still has wireless charging in the same place but the wireless power is improved and there is now active cooling via a fan, not tested it yet as it is in such an awful location.
No longer factory fitted to J1.2 2025 cars (it was standard on J1) , must now be done at the dealer for an extra £620. New Cayenne is the same evidently. Was not happy when I had to stump this up just before handover!
I've not had regen in any mode, definitely no regen in range mode, will have a look/play tomorrow.
I was surprised to see that push-to-pass still works in range mode o_O
I'm curious if active ride is as active in range mode as it is in other modes. Car felt a bit stiffer and less buttery...
yes, it is active all the time in all modes. Does not feel artificial unless the 'leaning in' function is active (only available in Normal and can be turned off).
I've not had a chance to cover many miles yet but in sport and sport+ it is just flat and solid, very stable over bumps in...
