  1. VW Group (Porsche, Audi, Scout) Commits to NACS

    yes, although apparently the BEV Macan will do this too
  2. VW Group (Porsche, Audi, Scout) Commits to NACS

    it was literally my answer to every question on the survey, regardless of the question.
  3. Tire skipping on sharp slow turns.

    The front axel lift can also exacerbate this
  4. Do you remember last time your filled up your ICE car?

    Costs over $120 to fill up my 911. Usually spend about $10 / week on the taycan.
  5. Battery Range: Is 100% full charge of 188 miles the best I can expect?

    TTS with the 21” wheels. About 230 at 100%. Actual depletion varies with driving vigor, so real world I get closer to 180.
  6. Lucid Sapphire by Savage Geese

    @daveo4EV have you test driven a lucid yet ?
  7. Taycan Problems are overwhelming an otherwise great car

    well one of the things they claim they learned is that they were much too conservative over provisioning the battery with the reserve capacity, and the reserve would be much smaller in the Macan. ironic for this thread. in any event, if OP can’t get them to do anything, I’d suggest enjoying a...
  8. I'm done....cant do it anymore

    met expectations, works fine. ‘22 TS, 10K miles
  9. Depreciation

    Different regions have different standards, but in the US wardrobe doesn’t matter nearly as much as just making an appointment. A friend referring your to their SA is also a good connection, but if that’s not possible, just calling and making an appointment ahead of time works wonders. Cold...
  10. GM follows Ford with NACS Tesla charge port adoption -- time to ditch CCS1 (at least the physcial design)

    I use a lot of 350kW stations at EA, and they almost never deliver more than 160-175 effective.
  11. GM follows Ford with NACS Tesla charge port adoption -- time to ditch CCS1 (at least the physcial design)

    VW was forced into EA from Dieselgate. If they gave a shit about it, it wouldn’t suck this much. As best as I can EA exist only to siphon government funding and court settlements.
  12. Long term Taycan owners: Are you still enjoying the car every day? Does it still feel special?

    No car is perfect for all people in all conditions. The 911 TTS comes the closest, to me, but being a jack of all trades sports car is also master of none. the taycan is just outstanding as a daily driver with rush hour traffic. So comfortable, quiet, smooth, fast. No clutch slip at low stop...
  13. Depreciation

    this is normal for the panamera and cayenne and other product lines. It’s really just some of the most special sports cars that play by different rules. Even the high end 911 TTS has historically taken a big hit, at least before 2020. Basically, panamera < 911 < GT < limited editions most of...
  14. Porsche wrecked in crash on A6 in Preston and driver 'dealt with'

    Lol. It says in the article. Driver received a summons.
  15. Porsche says “significant price increases” coming middle of this year

    maybe ? They also want to go upmarket and charge a lot more with PTS and Cxx and expand those customization programs for the high rollers.
  16. Porsche says “significant price increases” coming middle of this year

    you didn’t read their press release. They’re a publicly traded company now, and they wanted all their shareholders to know they plan to increase average profit margins across all lines to 20%. Oh, and extra on the EV. Yes, it’s on their website. Buckle up. Prices will rise until demand...
  17. 6.9% finance rate jumped to 10.9%!!

    TL;DR the central banks WANT it to be a shitty time to make new large purchases in order to slow inflation
  18. 6.9% finance rate jumped to 10.9%!!

    It’s unfortunate but interest rates are going up and have been for a year. it’s a rough time to buy an expensive new car. 10% doesn’t sound competitive. 6.5% is more like it (for the best credit ratings). Still a lot more expensive than a year-ish ago were 1.9% was possible Unfortunately...
  19. Stanford study warns against charging electric cars at home overnight

    This is a stupid argument. It’s like a few weeks of engineering work. EVs offer their customers charging schedules based on the cheapest rates, as published by their local utilities. People plug their cars in whenever they can, and the cars draw current based the calculation of the least cost...
