I believe the Audi e-tron GT configurator just came online in the US? Did any member of this forum already compare the relative pricing of the e-tron GT with the Taycan in similar performance and options specs? Big difference?

We went to a wedding in Baltimore last night. Given the somewhat rough reputation of downtown Baltimore where our hotel was (I apologize for my prejudice as the environment turned out to be quite lovely), I planned for my wife and I to drive down from Princeton in her ICE BMW. However, a...

Out of 2,014 new Porsches registered in Germany in April 2021, 359 were BEV Taycans and 311 were PHEV Cayennes/Panameras. 33% of all new Porsches in Germany last month were therefore plug-in's.

When I got my MY2020 Taycan delivered in October, the Porsche-recommended SoC to charge the battery to on normal days (i.e. no long roadtrip shortly after charging) was 85%. If I am not mistaken, the forum members with MY2021 Taycans reported that for their cars the recommended SoC is now 80%...

I never owned a Tesla but always respected the company for its audacious pioneering role in bringing EVs into the mainstream, even though some of its hyperbolic language is silly or sometimes even dangerous (think Autopilot or Full Self-Driving). However, I was disappointed to read the article...
