The '21 will have Plug & Charge, so you will be able to just plug into Electrify America chargers (if you can find a working one) and have it billed directly if you set up a Porsche Connect account. The 20's didn't have it, so you have to fumble with the Connect App when charging.
I'd get the...
This is an issue impacting some Taycan owners, including me:
Dreaded Red Electrical System Error & Poll | TaycanForum -- Porsche Taycan Owners, News, Discussions, Forums
While some owners had their Taycan out for months, in the U.S., Porsche USA now has a stock of HV batteries. From diagnosis...
I tried to order a GTS early last year to replace my 2020 4S+, but at that time the only dealer that was taking orders in my region had an additional $10,000 "market adjustment" price. Ridiculous. Since that time the value of a used Taycan has tanked.
Given the rapid pace of battery technology...
I have used the Tesla as my mobile charger, with a Tesla Tap, for over three years. Works perfect. We also have used for a couple of years a Wallbox Pulsar Plus 40A 240V, 9.6k, that works great. They now have a Pulsar Plus 48A 240V that charges up to 11.5kW. I'd stay away from the Porsche...
I've used a Tesla Tap for over three years for my Taycan, as I have a Tesla charger as my mobile charger. Works perfectly with a Taycan and has survived the heavy rains in the Pacific NW when using outdoors.
3 years and 38,550 miles. I was getting up to 240 miles in summer, but with the new HV it’s regularly 275 at 100%. I can make it to our beach house now without a charge stop, which is terrific.
Looks like in the U.S. Porsche USA now has a stock of HV batteries. From diagnosis to full battery replacement took 12 days on my 2020 4S+ this month. Quite a bit more range too with the new battery.
I was considering a switch to a GTS but decided to buy an extended Porsche warranty and keep...
Didn’t fill my 1991 964 C2 at today’s trip to the fossil station, it was just too damn expensive. Winter is coming too, so fresh carbon in the spring. Miles in a Taycan are amazingly cost effective and for me, with a utility that is carbon free, mostly clean except road trips at EA.
Although I was strongly considering a new GTS to replace my much loved 4S+, I’ve decided to wait until Porsche adopts the NACS in the U.S. Hopefully they will ditch their family’s bad sibling Electrify America nightmare. (Thanksgiving dinner at the family table must be interesting!)
Fingers...
2020 4S+ with 21 inch all season. With a new HV battery replacement installed in September 2023, I'm getting 275-280 miles at 100% this fall. I expect it to drop 10% - 15% as the weather gets colder.
Mine was in a 1926 house, in a super narrow garage, down a slope. I got the tow hook out of the frunk, removed the back bumper cover, and screwed it to the rear tow slot. Tow truck diver secured a strap to the tow hook, I jumped in to steer it, paced it in neutral, and it was pulled out and...
