The interior spec is essentially the same that I have with my current Taycan. The "contrasting" atacama stitching primarily shows up on black leather on the dash, doors and on the inside of the steering wheel.
I agree that it's a bit strange that the club leather option overrides the Turbonite...
It's actually ~€53 in Sweden (600kr), however, since I specced it with my old car, I'm probably just going to bring it with me.
That's an extremely good point. I did inform my dealer that I would be bringing the net over, but I'll definitely make sure that they quadruple check about the...
Those should definitely have been included! I had to redo the whole configuration manually on the international website to get it in English for this post, so I must have misclicked there. I had accidentally clicked on some RaceTex option rather than the leather ones. I've updated the post with...
My plan was originally to keep my current CT for a few more years, but in the end, I found that the facelift was such a significant upgrade that fixed most of the pain points I had with the old Taycan that I felt it was worth the upgrade.
The extra range and charge speed was perhaps the most...
Yesterday, I finished speccing and placed an order for a new CT. I don't have a build date yet, but preliminary indication is for a June delivery.
It's a relatively high-end spec, but feel free to come with suggestions for anything I should change. I went back and forth for a while regarding...
You shouldn't manually connect your phone to the car WiFi. How CarPlay works is that the phone will first connect via Bluetooth and then reconnect through WiFi. If you've manually joined the WiFi, the phone will connect, disconnect and then reconnect to the Wifi, making everything much slower...
If you're asking if it's electrically possible to use an extension cable, then yes it's technically possible.
If you're asking if it's a good idea, then no, absolutely not. If you have to ask then it's probably not something you should do. A regular household extension cord is typically not...
I haven't seen much discussion about this on the forums and since I'm again on the journey of speccing another Taycan, I'm interested to hear what everyone thinks about this?
On the Turbo models, Turbonite is mandatory for a few details like the Porsche crest, while some are optional. For the...
As someone professionally struggling with the curse of SAP, I can vouch for that the main control board of a Soviet-era nuclear power plant is apparently the hottest shit in the German UI/UX design scene right now.
Eh. I'm not saying his videos are amazing, but I think the amount flack he's getting here and at Reddit is completely disproportionate.
He keeps rambling a bit, but I like that he often focuses on more technical and EV related aspects of the cars rather than just parroting the same 0-60mph...
They've definitely blasted through all of my expectations for a refresh like this, but I think there is still quite a lot of room for improvement.
The software seems to still be the achilles heel of Porsche. The fact that the Taycan doesn't seem to be getting the Android Automotive based PCM is...
Is anyone else a bit confused about the new CarPlay functionality? They seem to be referring to it as CarPlay+, but that's not a branding that I've seen Apple use anywhere. At the same time if you look at the PDF that was posted earlier, they appear to mostly be talking about the Porsche CarPlay...
I guess I jumped a few steps, because I think the Turbo styling actually looks really good. It's a bit edgier and scifi-esque than the old styling, which I think really works here. Especially at an angle.
I agree that the base styling is a step down, though. I don't hate it, but it's not as...
Not arguing otherwise, but I think the main benefit of longer range isn’t the time saved as much as more ease of mind. Instead of having to plan your trip, you can just stop whenever you’re hungry or something.
If a charger is broken, it doesn’t matter because you probably have enough range to...
Seriously, looking at the video reviews, this really seems to be what the Taycan was supposed to be from the beginning. Even small things like the fact that the lightbar actually animates like the rendered graphics and a rear Porsche logo that lights up like the Mission-E concept.
Hm, no mention of the Sport Turismo?
Designwise, I think the standard Taycan looks worse than old Taycan, but I think the Turbo (S) looks absolutely awesome! It's obviously that the design is mainly driven by improving the aerodynamics, but I think it really worked with the Turbo.
It really...
