its good to hear personal experience, which is not all bad! I've driven the Taycan and it is undoubtedly a proper drivers car which happens to be an EV. This would be my 3rd EV, with the last being a Jaguar IPace - also great drive and once which also had bad press for faults but mine did not...
thanks a good checklist! Insurance quote ok at £700 and all of the cars I am looking at have a good chunk of warranty left. Longer term I would expect the battery and drive train to be robust and that 3rd party mainteance providers become available. This may well firm up long term residuals...
thanks Andy, noted on the warranty! the range you quoted is that for the Performance Plus? I'd hoped to get 250 miles with sensible driving, when needed! Also with the CT is there room to get a bike in the back with a wheel or 2 removed?
Hi All,
I recently hired an 82 kwh Polestar 2 (£99 for 3 days from Hertz Oxford, if your interested) and was very impressed that the 340 range was very accurate (cross country). However for similar sub £50k cost of the Polestars puts me into a good choice of Perf Plus's. I intend to buy...
thats a shame, the range is no better than my iPace. I need a estate/hatchback so will see how the new Macan shapes up. Pity as used Taycans are a great deal.
I'm watching this discussion with interested as seriously considering buying a used Cross-T with the Perf + battery. However key criteria for me was to a range of 300 miles on a long trip with sensible driving and average UK weather. Its not really clear if this is achievable!
I can see both sides of this. Currently there are no EV's suitable for track days in the purest sense of being drivers cars. ICE cars are way more fun for track hooning. You might want to take your EV to a track day to test that car to its limits, fair enough but that's not what track days are...
thanks for the info. Its my company so I can choose the sal sac provider so looking for the best range of EV's. I am just starting to ring around so will post any info re use leased Taycans.
Hi Folks, I am looking at a company salary sacrifice and see that some companies are now offering used EV's through this scheme. Given the current price of used Taycans this could be a very attractive option but does anyone have experience or seen Taycans offered in such a scheme?
