it was fitted to the car I had a go in at PEC Silverstone yesterday which was superb but RWS was most noticable turning round at the end of the skid area
So, after trying RWS, what do you think? Does it improve the handling of the car at speed, or is it just useful when making slow speed parks (which is where I need it the most)?

Impossible to say without direct comparison with a car without. The only circuit drive was with.
I wouldn’t consider not having it, personally.

Given that RWS aligns the rear tyres with car rotation (slow speed) and car lateral travel (higher speeds) - has anyone noticed improved tyre longevity as a result?

I guess true comparison is difficult, with Taycan being relatively new, so not many people can compare with and without.......

But gut feeling mebbies?

cheers
I drive now 5 weeks with a replacement taycan 4s saloon without and i’ll miss it. My ct is at dealer for a new booster and some other stuff.

Team Tayacan. I didn't spec it. I don't even have the car yet but it is the one thing since lockdown that I am second guessing not getting. In the end a "first world" problem but a perfect example of when you should just go with your gut and just do it.

Not to divert the thread but another regret -- I chose the InnoDrive. In retrospect a mistake. I won't use it and could have just used the FOB.

That said, fortunate enough to be able to get this type of car and can't wait for it to arrive

I read some books last holidays. Don’t regret things you can’t change anyway. Makes your life a lot easier.

and after lock date, don’t read threads that are optimistic about options that you didn’t take.

you will be happy with your car anyway. Don’t worry
