    Taycan 4S gets 323 mile real world range in Edmunds EV range test!

    Maybe RHD cars have misconfigured batteries? Seriously seems weird the dichotomy of experiences. I get comfortably over 227 (EPA estimate) in winter, driving “vigorously” in sport mode with no regard for economy. Note I probably have the most efficient setup (19” with all seasons - despite the...

    CarPlay & phone getting hot

    iPhone 12 works fine with some chargers but not others. Doesn’t seem like they followed the Qi spec very well. Google iPhone 12 wireless charging problems and you will see. Also which cars and what power output do they have? Taycan actually has a relatively powerful charger. So you can’t hold...

    RWD driving experience

    I don't understand this, it should be heavier because there's more weight up front?

    CarPlay & phone getting hot

    Agreed, Apple sucks. This is clearly not Porsche’s fault (except PCM rebooting, although I’ve never experienced that when my iPhone was overheating). Maybe they could’ve put the holder near a vent but who’s to say it wouldn’t be blowing hot air? I heard Porsche is starting to offer Android...

    Moving from a 911 to a Taycan?

    The one thing that feels materially worse in a Taycan is braking hard into a corner. Although I have all seasons and it’s only summers on 911. Does anyone know if that’s significantly improved with summers on a Taycan? Probably not since the Taycan weighs what it weighs but not sure.

    Taycan without 800V Battery

    Why yes, I did know that. That’s why smaller battery pack gives you less hp.

    Rear Axle Steering

    These threads keep popping up but I can't help repeating myself... don't forget that RAS allows Porsche to make the steering 10% more direct. Turn the wheel a little, car turns a lot, yet is not twitchy on the highway (due to rear wheels moving in same direction).

    Tire pressure

    Unless you're going for the "fuel" efficiency that's way too high. Ride will be harsher, tires will wear at center, traction will suffer, tires more likely to bubble. Part load for that spec is 36/32, full load is 39/38. I run 37/34, after experimenting with higher which was too harsh for me.

    Maps and Radio take 30 seconds to load after turning the car on

    HD radio is over FM, not LTE (cellular)

    Apple Car Play Cord vs. Taycan Armrest

    Actually I blame Apple. iPhone 12 is just buggy. For example it also has problem wirelessly charging, and that’s 100% their fault.

    Apple Car Play Cord vs. Taycan Armrest

    If you have an iPhone 12, it’s finicky whether it connects. I have to toggle WiFi on the phone sometimes. iPhone X worked every time.

    Apple Car Play Cord vs. Taycan Armrest

    I didn’t have to do an initial wired setup on a ‘21. 100% sure since I don’t even have the cable.

    XPEL "chips"

    I don't know about XPEL in particular but I see this on cars with PPF all the time. Many seem to be fine with it but it would annoy the hell out of me (which is why I don't get it even though I like how it'd make car washing easier). What's the point of wrapping something to keep it looking...

    Which extras you wouldn't order again

    What would really be futuristic is wireless charging. They've been talking about it forever though and no real progress.

    Nick Murray Taycan Base review

    I thought someone (@ron_b) would've posted this already but since not.... I offered to lend him my 4S for a real drag race (unlike that other clickbait video) but he declined.

    Software Update Has New Features for 2020 Taycans

    So is it confirmed no plug and charge?

    Standard cast iron brakes vs ceramic coated

    Almost like people who sell their cars after one year are the sort that don’t care about being frugal with money.... ;)

    Audio upgrade for base sound system

    "Local hifi" means USB stick or through CarPlay? I'm not aware that CarPlay supports greater than CD quality audio. Also some people have glitches through CarPlay (you'll see lots of complaints if you google it). If you really want to isolate it make sure you're trying with files on a USB...
