Esthetically speaking , one of my fav car on the market. Breathtaking design. And , even i'm not an EV fan , I think is the best EV on the market aswell.
To be fair i wasn't a fan of EVs until i got the chance to drive a model s a few weeks ago. And guys, don't say things like _it does have zero emotion_ or _just EV garbage_ if you haven't driven one. This car felt like nothing I've ever driven before and i couldn't stop smiling. Btw I'm not a fan of making EVs feel like petrols because yk it's just no petrol car.
As you say many people have not driven a fast electric car. I drove a Tesla Model S and its low end torque is incredible. I admit it also felt souless and heavy. However it goes like a rocket.
EV is not the worst but tesla is. Bad build quality especially interior, every part feels cheap, no matter it's a model 3 or model S. Cars like i4 or EQE are ok.
@@AllanCuttingedge I guess it depends what you put your personal focus on. Because i4 and EQE can't keep up with price to power ratio. But i didn't really check the whole interior in point of quality when i drove the tesla so i don't know how bad it actually is
@@AllanCuttingedge Have a look at the What car 2023 least reliable electric car survey. Apart from this if you put Porche Taycan Faults into Google you can read many articles about this car and the issues and faults that come with it. I agree with you Tesla is worse. The Audi E tron shares the same problems as it is the brother of the Taycan. If you do not agree with the surveys on this car and the owners who report these problems that is your choice. You are entitled to your opinion.
Taycan is one of the few EVs thats really decent! Except for 'family use' & the weight. Dont listen to the instagram kids, the real car enthusiast like all sorts of propulsion!
Yes I know what you mean. I saw an older one recently, boring EV driving experience aside, it is more beautiful than this one and of course much much more better looking than the Panamera
@timeslowingdown hahaha actually I was speaking about the Panamera with my buddy who runs a car business. They are trying to have an S Class like Porsche which makes it very challenging to keep the 911 shape.
Disagree 100%, so only real car enthusiasts can appreciate EVs? Yeah I see tons of car collectors pouncing on EVs, all the car people want them, hence why the resale on them is great almost zero depreciation. Hopefully you can sense my sarcasm.
takes me back to the days when trains were just transitioning from ICE to EV. Back then there were more legitimate concerns like the practicality of laying down power lines, and the undeveloped EV motor tech at the time, but look where we are at now. Only a matter of time before cars transition as well
This is my dream car because I had promised my late grandma that one day I'll buy this car and u will be the first one to sit in it😢. Now she's not there but still I know that she will be very much happy to see me with this porsche😢.
I love this car its a true 5 seater super car. I was looking at other cars but they only have a 4 seat with equipment in the middle which is nice for giving passengers access to features, but if you have a big family or a family person you definitely will want that 5th seat which is the middle seat in the back.
Unfortunately it will depreciate as fast as the first Taycan. You can get a 220.000€ Taycan Turbo S from 2021 with just 10.000km für 90.000€ right now.. At least here in Germany. The market is full of cars - great deal for the second hand buyer!
Thats why im watching now some reviews as the prices are attractive compared to a tesla that you could buy new for that price... maybe its just my opinion^^
I think you guys you should do a podcast every once in a while. You might be one of the RU-vid Chanel that drives the most numerous and diverse sport cars so you probably have an enormous knowledge to share !
5:15 in Germany it's not allowed to be able to watch a movie while you drive - I bet thats the reason why they made the second display specially for the passenger which is not visible from the drivers position.
people that still hate electric cars should search for a new hobby, this car is the definition of a perfect daily, you'll never actually need more car than this. you can do whatever you need to do on 1 charge (yes haters, you do not drive more than 670 km on a daily base) and still have fun while doing it. at the end of the day you plug it in at home and in the morning it's fully charged again. i know sound and everything is nice but who cares with a daily
Porsche makes a fantastic job to have a modern interior with displays, but still dont make it look like your sitting in a car from 2100 which looks just stupid. They kept the Classic lines and put displays in it. perfection That black porsche logo on the steering wheel looks stupid tho, why would you spec that???
The grey/black logos (Porsche calls it Turbonit) come as standard on every Turbo model since a couple of months. Definitely should´ve been an option to spec
Still i preff Panamera. Sry but i cant accept to charge something afther 200km . If i Drive it with 200kp or even 150/160 after 200km i will be dead , and looking for charge point. No , not for me. But i FAKING LOVE LOOKS OF this car !!!! FAKNG love it! Hope next 911 of Panamera will have similar ...
@@razor_ramon_ Cmon man .. What is Lucid Air someting....... we are talking here about cars with heretic... with V8's nothing will ever replace the emoutions u are getting from internal combustion engine.
And in just 2 short years from now it will be worth 1/3rd of the purchase price today. The world's fastest depreciating EV? Quite probably! Just wait 2 years, and buy one super cheap. Only a fool would buy a new one in 2024, especially with EV demand falling off a cliff, and manufacturers slashing prices to move all the EVs they made before the market developed.
taycan is kinda infamous now here cuz on sunday night in pune, india, a 17 yo kid drove his porsche taycan at 200+ and hit a couple resulting in their death smh
The Porsche Taycan Sport Turismo (station wagon) model seems to have a slightly larger (in liters) and more practical trunk in the back than this Taycan (sport sedan) model?. 🤔
There is a test with a very early Taycan 4S without any software update that improved efficiency. The result was 48,5kWh/100km (range of 178km) with an average speed of ~179km/h. If you charge it from 10 to 80% at every charging stop (70% = ~125km per charge) and you always use >300kW chargers you need 7 charging stops and ~140min for them. Total time for 1000km would 7h 54min with an overall average speed of 127km/h
Super impressive. But I just don’t “desire” an EV at this point. Maybe that will change eventually, but super impressive acceleration and cool screens are not what I love about driving.
Probably the only EV I would even consider owning, but not as my only car. My lifestyle, and the mileages I do, are not conducive to EV ownership as an only car. I suspect the novelty of the ridiculous acceleration would wear off pretty quickly.
Taycan tech brakes. I went to Porche to test drive one and the salesman told me do not buy one yet. Wait a couple of years till we have dealt with the tech issues. Really I thought!
@@danielshinerock1526 no way but as a former carsales man. It’s hard to find someone else who’s honest in that business. The stereotype of salesmen is real
Haha a commercial vlog for the taycan. There are literary parking lots at porsche dealers full of these that aren’t being sold, because they write off very quickly and no one will ever buy a new battery after a few years. Besides this, the follow up will come soon that will be much better. Probably a good car, but it is produced to meet the pollution requirements and the funny thing is it polluted more because no one buys and uses it instead of a ICE car.
