    Project Purple - MY2026 Taycan CT4

    It is all a matter of taste, of course, but I do agree on the wheels. For me if was this TG review that still makes me click, design wize: - Cross Turismo design wheels - gloss black wheel arches - offroad design, yes - loved the blue but was just too hard to get as a CPO so went with a...

    Project Purple - MY2026 Taycan CT4

    Hope that issue gets sorted for you easily - sure is annoying. At least there's the warranty and peace of mind, but still.. Just realized I drove 'your' car as a demo in summer. Cool color CT4, didn't have the nice gizmos you got e.g. PAR, though.

    GTS Ride Quality with or without Active Ride

    One has to test drive for himself to (subjectively) understand this, I think. So in terms of comfort AR will smooth out bumps that the ARBs would unnecessarily cause left right movements? But not be better versus just air suspension for small city bumps and uneven asphalt? I love the Taycan's...

    How to get a decent test drive in UK?!!

    You should absolutely be able to get an extended drive - 10 minutes won't tell you much. Dealerships in Europe get cars with big discounts precisely for that purpose - allowing them to be driven by the customers while still selling them with a profit after 6 months. My 2 cents - fiind a dealer...

    Burning Taycan

    Cars will burn, but rarely so, electric ones even less so - that's what we're all saying. I'd not give it much thought provided that (1) there's physical door handles inside and out - the Taycan has that and (2) ideally I'd want to be able to break the glass - mine has the double glazed...

    Panoramic Roof. Good vs Bad

    I don't have a lot of hair so I definitely am sensitive to radiating heat or cold from glass roofs in general - my ID.4 was bad in that respect. Surprize - not so with the Taycan - they did a good job insulating it. Interestingly in summer it does get hot to the point of one being unable to...

    Has Taycan Depreciation Changed the Porsche Experience?

    I absolutely recall that moment when I drove a Taycan the very first time. Took full 10 minutes to know I want one - one does not often get that clarity in life! On the bright side, Porsche did extend warranties for clear manufacturing issues - OBC, heater etc. On the not so bright side, this...

    Has Taycan Depreciation Changed the Porsche Experience?

    To each, his own, I think. I value my CT 4S for the way it drives, for the way it looks like. For merging the joy of driving and a healthy dose of middle-age crisis with the kid, dog and skis in the back - could not do that with a 911 as a daily. Provided not too many dealer visits get in the...

    Is porsche approved used worth the extra money?

    Yep yep - exact same story - I've got a 2022 4S. The extended warranty covered it after having inquired for it.. Those OBCs break very reliably! I'd guess the electric fans are the ones within the front wheel wells, which are known to clog up due to a design issue and stop cooling your HVB...

    Is porsche approved used worth the extra money?

    The problem with that is that you have to wait for 3mo after your purchase. You'd be tempted to say it ain't much, but in that time my 22KW OBC broke and I (almost) paid 7k to replace it. With any other car, I'd probably take my chances. With the Taycan being very expensive to fix and not a...

    Now you got me started on the key :swear: the damn thing keeps pressing itself in the pocket - this is prioritising design over security, it should be the other way around.

    My Porsche app lost connectivity (again)

    Had pretty much your symptoms. Got in touch with the Porsche support. By the time I got a proper response, it self resolved - after 3 weeks.. Here's their response:

    Taycan ski trip - UK to the Alps

    Current 21" winter tires do have the right compound of course. They are now NF0 certified and in my experience the handling is phenomenal. All great bar some wheel well snow accumulation, which appears not to be wheel size related, as per other users here. You are right of course, a narrower...

    They would have to actually release a software fix - which could fix the actual problem, too. But wait, they only do that when the battery might catch fire, an entire continent of satnavs resetting does not meet that criteria.. We could always get a robot to do this for us in the mean while

    Remember radio was on (when Carplay exists) Remember reverse camera settings (e.g. fisheye) - I click that like 99% of the times And for those of us who use it as a daily to pick up the kids - back port this feature from the VW ID3/4 - you basically never have to touch the nav in most cases...

    Taycan ski trip - UK to the Alps

    Got the same tires on my J1.1 - no 21" winter tire option in the PCM. Do you guys reckon this is just the software being left behind (as the 21" winter ones are a recent NF0 certification) or some tech limitation, too? I went through an Approved 111-check with them on and there was no complaint.

    Taycan On Board Charger Died - Dealer replacing 22Kw with 11Kw

    I thought you can actually spend the coupons on a set of tires or servicing cost? https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/22kw-obc-downgrade-compensation.33082/ @Stash182 & @Persuader - you actually got them, what are they good for? It is all about your use case, for me it's either...
