- Taycan 4S MY20
I have a 2020, and the only real issues I have had are when the charging station is offline or failed. Otherwise using the Porsche app, and cc have both worked fine. The shell app also has worked well.Before you decide to ignore lack of plug & charge on a 2020, try to have someone demonstrate on a Taycan what is required to successfully do DC fast charging at an Electrify America site (not at the Porsche dealership). DC fast charging using credit card or app is not always as easy as it looks on many youtube demo videos.
It is possible per Porsche to get plug & charge on a 2022 by installing a higher capacity 19 kw on-board charger, but that is a costly upgrade.
Not saying don't get a 2020 model. Get informed about the reality of non-plug & charge DC charging, if you plan to do DC fast charging in your Taycan.
The one sucky thing near me is stations are limited and imo fail often. Luckily I usually charge at home.
