    Impressions/thoughts after buying a used 2022 Taycan RWD in the USA (long)

    I'm a little confused about the steering wheel thing. Pretty sure I have the base "thin" steering wheel. It's leather, it's smooth, I grab it with one hand...or two...or sometimes just a couple fingers, and it turns the car in the direction of my choosing.

    Long term Taycan owners: Are you still enjoying the car every day? Does it still feel special?

    13 months of ownership and I'll still not infrequently open the door to the garage...just look.

    Long term Taycan owners: Are you still enjoying the car every day? Does it still feel special?

    Just over a year and 10K miles in a 22 RWD. I came from a golf GTI. Still LOVE my car on the daily. After a couple months I thought maybe I should have gone 4S but this is my daily driver and I'm actually now GLAD that I have the trim with the longest range. My biggest regret is no HUD.

    Who charges their Taycan to 100% SoC at every charge

    Valid point(s). It's >100 degrees regularly in the summer where I live....but thankfully I've never gotten the local EA charger to deliver over 120kW (even though it's labeled 350kW). Nonetheless, I will refrain from range mode regardless after using DC in the future...which will be who knows...

    Who charges their Taycan to 100% SoC at every charge

    Very interesting tidbit regarding NOT immediately using range mode if ambient temp >95 degrees and charging with DC over 150 kW.

    FOD 15% discount

    Is ALK FOD available for all models? I have a 22 RWD and would be interested in trying ALK but I don't see it as available as a FOD option. I occasionally use LKA but have to be conscious to turned it off when I encounter a construction area (which is not rare in California) where the lines are...

    Out of Spec Youtuber takes delivery of Taycan: Deciding To Buy A Used Taycan Over A New Model 3

    Love car videos and love my Taycan...but this video was not my flavor of ice cream. The pace and tone of it remind of watching a regular season baseball game or any golf event. To each his (or her) own.

    Stanford study warns against charging electric cars at home overnight

    If the law is that all new cars sold in Cali will be electric by 2035.....maybe improve charging infrastructure and increase grid capacity with renewables? ?

    Newbie incoming

    Welcome sir. I tell people that I love my wife more than my Taycan...but it's pretty close...which is a testament to how much I love my wife.

    Taycan vs Telsa M3P thoughts?

    A year into ownership as well and I'm glad that I'm not the only one who misses their car when on vacation ?

    Just installed Ring dash cam over the weekend. Anybody using one?

    Just looked up and watched YouTube videos for fitcamx. Looks great and unlike ring it seems there's no subscription required. I'm still nervous about messing with the electronics of the finicky Taycan but this seems like a great option.

    I want it but super nervous it will mess with the electronics and/or battery of the finicky Taycan.

    12v battery fails, Hyundai’s insight into their root cause

    Fascinating...but I personally only use myporsche app and connect maybe once or twice a day.

    Beautiful Inside and Out

    Hmmmm....I agree that starting google maps boots the native Porsche nav and vis versa. The main screen in your pic looks more like the maps app native to the iPhone and not google maps but I could be wrong. Will mess with it tomorrow but will be tough to sleep thinking of the possibilities.

    GTS Sport Turismo range

    A year/10K of ownership and averaging 3.6mi/KWh in a RWD with 20 inch wheels and PB+. I plug in nightly and preheat/precool which to my understanding does NOT use the cars battery if plugged in. Regen always on and I'd say I only punch it maybe 1-2/week. I otherwise enjoy the smooth luxury of...
