I bought a „Stanley Razor Edge Scraper“ from Amazon to take it off each year. Works like a charm! After you have scraped off the sticker apply some adhesive remover or rubbing alcohol to remove any glue residue and you‘re good to go.
FYI: the Swiss vignette is now also available as a digital purchase since last month (August 2023).
Very much looking forward to yet another one of your excellent trip reports.
Hmmm.. this really is difficult to see in pictures. Chalk is especially hard to capture well. Buti would also think that that car is ice grey metallic.
FWIW, this is my Taycan ST, which i am sure is chalk:
When you use the Porsche Range calculator, that configuration (Base Taycan, w/o performance+ battery, 21-inch wheels, 100% city driving) comes out to ~160miles of range:
My mistake. I was a bit too quick in reading and responding. The only useful thing about this chart as far as overall vehicle height is concerned is that you can at see what the difference between the different ride modes is.
I would love settings to prefer certain charging networks (e.g. Ionity) in the route planning so that the car doesn’t route me to some unreliable, slow, expensive charger.
Does anybody know what V1L is supposed to be? I also saw this on my option sheet (after the car was built, there was nothing in the configurator), but have no idea what this would mean:
EDIT: Just read the option code above that:

I was under the same impression until this morning, hence my surprise. this does, however, seem to be different from the TYD (Track your dream) program which has been offered to US customers so far.
Also: I would not invest too much time into this as so far the usefulness is really limited…...
Rather unexpectedly, I was greeted by a push message from the My Porsche app this morning when I woke up. And i thought i would share here, since I hadn’t read or heard about this functionality of the App anywhere yet.
“The manufacturing process of your Taycan is starting soon”. The car now...
Just in case you haven’t seen this yet: There is a pinned tread dedicated to this topic already.

I had the exact same experience here in Switzerland. The dealer contacted me specifically to discuss what he would like me to enter into the survey.... Really defeats the purpose
Just found this German article, according to which production at Leoni (one of the main suppliers of wiring looms in the Ukraine) has resumed again at a capacity of between 60 - 70%.
So one can hope that this would also mean that Porsche can continue to produce cars soon.
EDIT: Just saw there...

Just found this German article from a local newspaper in Stuttgart. According to the article a Porsche spokesperson has stated that Taycan production is currently stopped until the end of next week. The article is from yesterday (08. March), so that would mean production is paused until 18...
2. & 3 Must be a Porsche thing in general. I have the exact same on my 718 (and i have so far only washed that car by hand/with a pressure washer).
For 3 i now usually place some dry towels underneath the hood before i wash the car in the hope that they soak up most of the water
Do they put the “Sport Turismo” on the badge? I would expect that badge to just read “Taycan GTS”. Regardless, I had already ordered the car de-badged.
