Gotta say it. They are certain to have plenty of lightly used Taycan battery packs, since apparently any minor scratch requires a full replacement!

Now we can ask for a discount if the battery needs to be replaced outside of the warranty.

But this is awesome that they are recycled.

It’s the size of almost two basketball courts and consists of 4,400 battery modules: the new battery storage system to supply the Porsche Plant Leipzig with power. The extraordinary thing is that this stationary energy storage system was built out of used Taycan batteries.
Second Life concept: how used Taycan batteries became an energy storage system for the Leipzig plant
They should have used mine, which is not suitable for a car, after 2nd module failure. Maybe not even suitable for their factory... :angry:

"individual battery modules can be replaced individually if necessary." Oh, I see, in their factory power plant its easy, in my car its a nightmare... Excellent customer service...
