The Porsche Taycan 4S is an electric car made by a manufacturer who has a history of making cars, but its pricing can go up to $160,000 so you could expect or think it'll be almost perfect. Here are my thoughts.

Note: A couple of days ago Porsche announced an over-the-air update to their infotainment that includes adding Android Auto to the Taycan. The Taycan already had some of this system in place so it's unclear how many of our gripes will be addressed when it arrives. Also we are aware that the Model S Plaid is price comparable to this. It wasn't shipping when we reviewed this car and we can only do one car at a time. We'll be happy to check out the Plaid when/if we can. Porsche made it easier by offering short-term rentals.

@EmbraceMaking Год назад

It's weird, it is like this in my 2018 Q5 - it forgets everything. But when I had an older 2014 A7 I never had to adjust anything. Every time I got in the car, it would remember all of the driver settings, HVAC settings etc. It's like they went backwards and made it worse.

@helplmchoking Год назад

This is a normal thing and is actually often an emissions thing (hangover from ICE vehicles). The testing manufacturers have to do is a fairly short drive representing real conditions, which is why your car will try to get the cats up to temp as fast as it absolutely can, it's why things like exhaust and engine settings default to the comfort modes so they can ensure it gets tested in its most eco state and it's why stop start exists, it makes fuck all difference in the real world but in a brief test run it does make a real difference. Tldr you can only emissions and safety test the car in the state it starts up in every day, so they make them reset to comfort to try and scrape through tests

@oscarg5031 2 года назад

One thing ima say for Linus to know, someone’s probably said it, but they didn’t under rate the hp because the numbers they give are what the engine or batteries can put out. This does not include the powertrain loss which is usually around 15% horsepower loss from the motors delivering the powers to the wheels. So while they torque is underrated, the horsepower is probably on the money

@Kitteh.B Год назад

Also various dynos report different numbers based on the technology they use. Dynojet usually reports higher than Mustang if I'm remembering right. Plus you gotta factor in calibration, how thoroughly they input the relevant information, which can introduce variables, such as ambient temperature (for example, colder temps are better for ICE engines because cool air is more dense), and also number of tests as even three consecutive tests can have a range of results. Everything compounded, it's entirely feasible to have that kind of a discrepancy. That's to say nothing of the argument for measurement types, like hub dyno vs roller dyno and which numbers are "official" and whatnot!

@dwindeyer Год назад

@@Kitteh.B Yeah I would have not made that claim without more than one dyno test and checking with the manufacturer on testing methodology

@squidwardo7074 Год назад

"this car would be better if three of these displays were gone" Me everytime im driving a newer car.

Only exception is having your navigation. Which should be on a heads up display. The tech is there already

As a german I can totally relate to the software being not thought through completly. Germany is stuck in middle age in so many places. As long as you stay with mechanics and stuff, everything is top notch, but as soon as you come to things related to software and use cases that were born after 2000 it feels like the train left without us.

Why you keep using those shitty (in terms of graphics performance) real-time OSes for touchscreens? Just have a separate computer running RTOS for anything vital, and on tablets run a regular Linux or BSD with GPU-accelerated GUIs simply interfacing with said computer (I believe that's more or less what Tesla does). Worst case scenario: if the OS on the tablet hangs - it doesn't matter cause it's not running anything important, you could just detect that it's not responding and restart the whole thing.

I think this review was awesome. I watch tons of car content and getting a perspective from a non car guy was great. Linus is right. Having such crap infotainment and oversights in a car like this is completely bonkers.

@indianboy0453 3 года назад

Especially since the infotainment system is becoming so central to the cars operation. I mean damn, climate controls on a touch screen? Once you have that as an interaction, there is absolutely no room for error when designing the rest of the infotainment system.

@piobu5357 3 года назад

It is probably the first time I've ever heard anyone complain about the infotainment in a Porsche, too, and yet car reviewers will usually be the first to point out that, say, VW Golf mk 8's climate control is hidden 3 menus deep in the infotainment, it has awful touch sliders for volume and temp, along with annoying touch sensitive buttons for headlight modes, the touch sensitive buttons on the steering wheel are garbage, etc. It's almost like there's a double standard for premium brands.

@indianboy0453 3 года назад

@@piobu5357 Actually funny enough. I remember the Top Gear UK episode where the trio were driving those GT cars for a wedding couple, where they spent a day with a Maserati, an Aston Marten, and a Porsche. The trio quickly pointed out that the Porsche Panamera they were driving had awful user interaction cause there were so many buttons and controls, with common settings being hidden in submenus and such. I think its been an issue with Porsche then tbh. I mean, wth does "Semi-Automatic" clock adjustment mean?
