I would be concerned about the resale value of a base RWD car w/out any options. Paid up for about $25,000 of options and wishing for more (adjustable suspension, retractable mirrors, turning rear wheels primarily).
Never heard that this component was M.I.A. on my '21. Is it the case that every Taycan with 14-way seats is qualified for this rebate if they don't have the electronics for the steering wheel already inrstalled? I have a heated steering wheel but movement is manual only.
An easy way to access news articles mentioning Taycan is to create a Google Alert. My alert string is "Porsche Taycan" and just about every day a list of new articles mentioning Taycan are listed. Here's one from today's list:

If I understand it right, the real-time %-age battery charge reported by the myPorsche app comes from the Porsche key bluetooth. If so, I'd hope that at it's next iteration Porsche would optionally or also send this info. from the car to the app during a charging session so that there wouldn't...
Unfortunately here in the U.S. EVs and solar panels are likely to become a significant political flashpoint over the next decade.
In the case of solar panels, there is already a major push by California electric utilities for a special tax on houses w/ rooftop solar because such subsidies tend...
It's all relative but I'm thinking 0-to-60 in something like 5 seconds qualifies as 'fast'. My 2003 911 6-speed was just under 5 seconds (not a turbo).
All my car's interior lights are set to -5 (lowest setting) ... still considerably brighter than I would like when driving, say, at night on the highway. Ditto for the overhead.
Interesting. The snippet from the study doesn't really support a conclusion that the study included only Taycans in its reference to Porsche vehicles in general.
After changing a set of 19-inch tires for a different set of 19-inch tires I tried the "drive 15 minutes or 15 miles" routine to reset the tire pressure sensors. Didn't work for me ('21 base model). Instead, as other threads mention, simply change in Settings > Vehicle > Tire Pressure Settings...
Just to close this thread, I took a set of replacement wheels+tires to our local great tire store. Watched the process, which was straightforward.
The instructions provided above are good, although in my case I was not changing to a different size wheel. In that circumstance there is a trick to...
I recently bought a set of nearly new 19-inch Taycan aero wheels which I want to swap out for the current 19-inch base wheels on my base Taycan. (Another Taycan owner moved up to 20-inch wheels, hence the availability of these.) I've been assured that the new wheels are balanced. The tires are...
Great ideas here although some feature requests seem to have been granted on my vehicle such as automatic locking when walking away from the car. I'll just throw two more ideas out there:
* Provide a radio station selector mode which displays 10-12 favorite FM stations by number (1,2,...) (or a...
