We had our 2020 Taycan Turbo updated about two weeks ago and just received a call from the dealership that they received a new owner's manual for us. The dealership is going to delivery it to me later today and I'm looking forward to see what has changed. Since it was a 2020 Turbo, the update added smart location based front end lift and wireless car play but I'm not sure what else the new manual would cover. Anyone else get a new manual?

The manual is the same as the Porsche Good To Know App - there are now 3 versions of the manual available on Apple and Android. MY20 x 1 and MY21 x 2 (most recent is for April’21 build onwards).

Smartlift lifts the entire car not just the front and is smart enough to store geo co-ordinates (if you want) and remember for the next time.

I don’t think you’ll notice much different in the manual however but always good to have access to what’s current.

Good point, thank you. I've always just referred to it as a front axle lift (FAL), like whats on a GT3. It definitely lifts the entire car with the air suspension and I'll start to think about it like that now instead of just the FAL.

I received a new manual hardcopy when my car went in for the WMA5 update.
