    Is there any warning sounds for blind spot detection & adaptive cruise control + lane keep assists ?

    My RWD does not have audiable warnings for anything [except the frogy sound for lane departure and parking] and I don't remember seeing an option in the settings anywhere for them. My Audi etron does not audio response either. I would agree that would be a nice option. Would also like to see...

    Best route planner for “arrival state of charge” ?

    Because there is rarely an alternate charger close by it’s a good idea to check PlugShare, vendor website or even call the charger vendor to make sure the planned chargers are up and available on your route.

    Important Free Software Update for Your Taycan Now Available at Your Porsche Dealer

Normally I get 250 miles of range when charging to 100%. Drove the 182 mile trip and the car indicated 68...

    Shocking Lease quote from Porsche Usa

    It will be interesting to see what the depreciation will be for the Taycan over the next few years. With the production low and demand high it seems using a bank loan may be more favorable in terms of total cost for the next few years.

    Interview with EA Sr director Robert Barrosa

    Adding to the above, the car dictates the charging power not the charger, of course the charger must be working properly. On YouTube there are several good videos detailing the Taycan charging curve. Here is one:

    Yes, the EA app does not have a "MY '22" choice yet. Doesn't matter actually, make sure you have a Porsche internet Login and the dealer sets up you car so you can login to the Porsche network on your car PCM dash panel. There is a green overhead LED light [above the rear view mirror] that...

    Taycan in cold climates - your experience?

    Charging speeds are dimished when the battery is cold. Fortunately Porsche has included a heat/cool feature that works on the cabin & battery and can be operated from the app. Taycan is one of the few EVs that displays the battery temperature. If the charging speed is slow the battery...

    What is your opinion of the HUD option?

    This is my third car with HUD and I like seeing the speed limit without looking away from the road. Wish it included blind spot indicators and side mirror view when the turn signals are on.

    Taycan Cross Country Trip Sets Record With Under 2.5 Hours Total Charging Time
