  1. Who has experience going from Taycan Sedan to Taycan Cross Turismo?

    I have a '21 Taycan 4S Sedan. I love the car, but find its utility limiting with regard to the rear seat comfort for driving with friends (e.g., taking two adult friends who are both about 6' tall on trips to dinner or road trips) and for luggage space/hauling capacity. This means the car often...
  2. PEC ATL delivery then returning to CT via charging network too risky?

    We drove our 21 4S from Fort Lauderdale to Washington DC last spring with no problems. We had 5 charging stops, all on EA. All EA locations were at Walmart or Sam’s Club locations and generally within a couple of miles of I95. Having the chargers near stores was convenient as they have...
  3. Taycan 4S owner in Meursault a forum member?

    Vacationing in Burgundy and saw this 4S parked in the center of town today. Made me wonder if the owner is a forum member?
  4. US- Secondary User - Access to Porsche charging service no-charge 30 min?

    Can the secondary user simply call EA customer support to initiate the free charge?
  5. Really, How long for service?

    Based on your location, you may be referring to the Tyson’s location. My 4S has been there for over a week without being touched because they only have one technician. Now I will need to decide whether to pick up the car without getting the recalls and updates completed and reschedule or leave...
  6. "System Meltdown - DC Fast Charging in America" - Video by Kyle of Out of Spec

    Kyle’s videos’ used to be interesting, now they are too long and mostly rants to gain views. I rarely find any of his videos worth the time to watch.
  7. Any Maryland members here?

    Thanks for that insight. My service advisor told me that one of their two qualified Taycan techs had recently left and that created the backlog. The same thing happened to me at Tysons for one of the earlier software updates/recalls that required a service visit. Again, I scheduled an...
  8. Any Maryland members here?

    I’m in DC, so close to MD. Purchased 4S from Tysons April 21. Have used them for service. Mostly underwhelmed. They seem to chronically have only one certified Taycan technician. Scheduling an appointment is easy, but meaningless as the car sits on their lot waiting to get into the service bay...
  9. Taycan and Amtrak Autotrain

    My post was for round trip. I checked our records since we have used the train three times so far this year. In January we had two sleeper cabins plus a standard car and priority offloading for $1440. In hindsight that appears to have been a great deal. That trip was one way traveling north...
  10. Taycan and Amtrak Autotrain

    Finally getting around to posting about my experience on the first leg of our journey on the AutoTrain with the Taycan. We have taken the AutoTrain before, but that was with our BMW X5. I was a bit more nervous taking our 2021 Taycan 4S, but decided to give it a try. Here are some...
  11. Taycan and Amtrak Autotrain

    Today is our trip from Lorton to Sanford. The incoming train was 2 hours late this morning, so check in for the outbound train was a mess. We waited 2 hours to get to check in. Temp today in Lorton 91F. Car was in eco mode for AC. Kept cabin comfortable with temp set at 70F. Used 6% of battery...
  12. Taycan and Amtrak Autotrain

    I have seen a few posts on the forum about members who have taken their Taycans on the Amtrak Autotrain between Lorton VA and Sanford Fl. I plan to take my Taycan 4S on the train this weekend. I am interested in any advice on prep of the car so that things go well and the car is is good shape...
  13. Rented a Model Y

    I agree that Porsche already has the software/hardware to enable one-pedal driving. If you use the automatic regen setting (long press on the regen button on steering wheel) and the road conditions require it, you can get very aggressive regeneration similar to Tesla one-pedal driving (I also...
  14. Flat Tire Disaster / Taycan 4S / NY

    I’m glad you were able to get the car to service and are safe. Within days of purchase of my Model 3 Performance with low profile 20” wheels and tires I had a blowout due to a minor pothole on a highway near DC and was stuck for a few hours on the side of a very busy highway. Tesla roadside...
  15. 10 day Vacation Question - Leave Taycan Plugged In?

    I recently left my 2021 4S in the garage unplugged and locked for a month. The SOC did not change. I was not comfortable leaving it plugged in. Did the same for our Model 3 Performance with Sentry Mode turned off and it only lost a couple of % SOC. The latter surprised me since Teslas seem to...
  16. 2021 Taycan 4S Ice Grey/Chalk for sale

    Thanks. It is a beautiful exterior/interior combination.
  17. 2021 Taycan 4S Ice Grey/Chalk for sale

    I have decided to sell my 2021 Taycan 4S. The exterior is Ice Grey and the interior is Chalk/Black leather. The car has about 3600 miles and was special ordered and delivered one year ago through Porsche Tysons Corner in the DC Metro area. The car has full body and front windshield Stek...
  18. "2022 Lucid Air: The makers of the first 500-mile EV should be taken seriously" - Article link

    Car is getting good reviews and an independent 500 mile 70 mph range test. But if you read lucidowners.com you will see lots of complaints about missing features due to delayed software and software bugs. Overall the software issues sound worse than those for the Taycan, and that is saying...
  19. Your other electric vehicle

    We have a Tesla Model 3 Performance, but that does not meet your requirements. I think it is a great city car, less so for long distance travel. Based on reviews I have read the Mustang Mach E or the Kia Niro may be good options.
