Is anyone running the new PZero PZ5 Elect in 21" ? I am interested in it to replace my PZ4 which only have 4mm of thread left after 12kkm. I like the PZ4 grip and feel, but the main weakness is NVH resonance on rough pavement which can become really bothersome. I would like to retain the grip...

Saw this ad promoted by PH (no affiliation) for a UK Taycan GT offered at 140KGBP (3300mi). The combo with blue decals over grey is a bit odd and i was intrigued by the bucket seat fading blue pattern. Turns out it is an option on the Taycan GT which you get in association with the blue or...

Out of the blue this morning, chassis failure warning. May 25 CT4S with 5600km. Appeared as soon as I moved the car to reverse. I tried to drive a very short distance, but driving without sway bar is ... hum ... interesting. Gives an odd springy/bouncy feeling to the rear axle. Sort of...

Expensive, outrageously priced for the mere annoyance of a little supply chain inefficiency, but definitely worth it for me. Every day i see these stiches glitter, and it makes the drive (or the wait in traffic) special. Which is what these cars are all about. When i placed my order in August...

https://www.thedrive.com/news/porsche-is-now-considering-fake-gear-shifts-in-its-evs-after-earlier-opposition Porsche is reported in this article to have prototyped fake gears à-la-Hyundai N. To me, this sounds like gimmickry that should become standard on all sporty-pretending chinese EVs...

https://www.roadandtrack.com/reviews/a64524492/tested-2025-porsche-taycan-turbo-s-cross-turismo-is-a-painfully-quick-ev-wagon/ Not as insightful on Active Ride as the C&D article. Complimentary of the Blackberry-Chalk two tone interior. Less complimentary of the price of a well optioned CT Turbo S.

Do fellow J1.2 often (ever ?) see 320 kW on their battery indicator ? In spite of toasty ambient conditions, i am never seeing more than 296-297. Even at much lower SOC (12%, 31degC battery, 281 kW). I tried to precondition by pointing the PCM nav to a (claimed) 300 kW DC charger, but that had...

I am (finally !) the owner of J1.2 Taycan CT4S, 6 days and 1100km. It has 21" wheels with Pirelli PZero Elect NF1 tires. Car is opionned with Active Ride, Torque Vectoring and Rear Wheel Steering. And I think i have a problem with the latter. I quickly starting feeling something odd in Normal...

Taycan J1.1 has undeniably suffered from questionable to problematic reliability. J1.2 bears the promise of improved reliability through - a redesigned high voltage stack - a redesigned HVAC module - new battery chemistry A poll comes closest to rendering an objective assessment of J1.2...

A Taycan caught fire on the freeway and burned almost entirely today in northern Malaysia (Perak). Picture from local fire department, but another Taycan owner shared a whatsapp video of the same incident. Local websites do not mention any victims, fortunately. Seemingly and thankfully a...

Yes, that is 3% fewer deliveries than in 2024, but the glass half-full view is that these are really strong results considering a) that 2024 was a massive product transition year and b) that everyone but (or including, depending on how closely you look) the chinese are struggling in China...

Does anyone know the J1.1 sales mix between the 3 body types and 6 power trains ? It is not infrequent that Porsche discloses the sales share of different versions when releasing a refresh. I searched but without success ...

Other than the known high level bla bla on feature and spec changes, what do we know about the BOM differences between Taycan Gen 1 and the Gen 1.5 2024 facelift as far as unreliable Gen 1 components or sub-systems are concerned ? Are there founded expectations that the litany of Gen 1 problems...

Waiting for the configurator to open here in (southern) Malaysia to order a MY25 CT4S. More inclined toward Sport Turismo but not imported here, and road conditions make CT sensible, less so with the CT design 21 wheels i will spec. Somewhat of a brave choice given the embryonic nature of the...
