  1. Matrix headlights approved!

    So the regulation is about to be released, Porsche had stated they could enable Matrix headlights via firmware if rules changed. I hope they do. https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-technology-business-health-congress-761cac7ae30a03ab6a399b9676ae44bb
  2. Power companies band together for coast-to-coast EV fast-charger network

    From the funding in new infrastructure bill we may finally get much better coverage on major highways. In my opinion this should have been done ten years ago to enable EV sales here, but better late than never. Now let’s see how fast they actually do it And hopefully they support AT LEAST 150 KW...
  3. Electrify America short road trip: typical experience

    So I decided to take a road trip on another EV (around 650 miles in the North East region, good coverage, many options). And I was using Electrify America. And I have to say it was pretty much exactly as most people experience with EA. Which is bad considering this is some of the densest and...
  4. Transitioning from Taycan to Etron GT

    Hello all, After over 1.5 years of being a first time Porsche owner (at the time) of Taycan Turbo S I am about to switch over to the Audi RS Etron GT. The Audi was the car I initially was waiting for, but because the Taycan came out earlier and because of its quality/character and wanting to...

  6. Porsche leading their brand with the Taycan

    I have been very impressed how much and how consistently Porsche has been leading their brand with the Taycan. It is in every dealer I see as the “marquee” car, it is in all their e-mails and print materials. And this over one year after launch and it is paying off. I have seen many Taycan’s in...
  7. Front Collision Braking works….

    Well I was driving today. And was turning left with oncoming traffic. I timed my turn and was about to turn as a car was going by me from the opposite direction. But I guess I was a bit to aggressive for the car. As I started to turn the car slammed on the break, the collision warning came up...
  8. Taycan Turbo S owner's review of the 4S

    As my car is in the shop for a bunch of campaigns and upgrades I was given a frozen blue 4S as a loaner (which I HIGHLY appreciate, last time it was a Macan). It has been a good chance to really compare on a daily situation the "differences" between these two versions. I have always maintained...
  9. Nav Bug and PCM direct connect question

    I have noticed a bug in navigation or maybe I am not getting it. Most of the time when I put in a destination the map will go into manual zoom mode and I have to manually change it back to auto. I have already set the preference for the Nav to enable Auto Zoom, even tried clearing and turning it...

  11. New Porsche Owner needs help with Homelink

    So I am very familiar with HomeLink, rolling codes, learning, etc and have had many cars with HomeLink built in. But I am completely lost with the Taycan. I am following the instructions, it learns the remote then in next step has a synchronization that says "Signal Sent." I have no idea what...
  12. Owner Discusses Taycan Range, Battery Longevity, Charging and Related Concerns

    This is a common question so I decided to start a thread for discussion, and to answer some questions and get information collected for others where this may be theirs first EV. For range I know that both using range and driving style can have a big impact. If you have not had an EV you will...
  13. My Gentian Blue Turbo S delivered

    Hi everyone: It was suggested I post pictures of my new Turbo S in this color as an actual delivery. Sorry for the quality, they are quick snaps on my iPhone for a friend, so they are NOT beauty shots. But this beast is in the wild. Interior is Tex Black/Slate Gray. And yes my neck hurts, I...
