Oh, and just to say the low suspension setting is low.... it touched on a speed bump earlier so need to remember to raise it ( it was in range mode)

Did it touch at the end of the speed bump? Mine seems to touch the ground going down the bump and the suspension dips down. I normally put it on the high level when driving a route where there are speed bumps. Sport mode seems better.

Yep, just when coming off the bump. Only very lightly but enough to remind me not to do that again!

I have had no problems with speed bumps or anything of that sort yet. To me it seems the fear of Taycan being low is overblown. It is not very low UNLESS you happen to drive with Range or Sport Plus modes. Then it really is like a formula car and one must be careful. Even then the lift button will fix it though.

Normal & Sport modes are good for most bumps even without lift. Severe stuff I use the lift button. Sport mode + lift is the ultimate combo if it's a really bad one, as Sport will make the suspension stiffer.

I was worried about this issue before owning the car. Now as an owner I'm not at all any more. Just don't use range/sport+ modes in any situation in which this might be a concern. Normal/Sport are usually fine even if you forget to lift.

I think it is the pieces in front of the wheels that touch the ground. And yes it is very light but still nervracking.

Lovely car! Congratulations and enjoy!

What colour interior? It looks like a grey colour but that might just be the light?
It’s black, just the light making it look lighter. Red belts though, which look ace.

The best option by far is the sports sound. It’s sounds amazing both inside and out. People turn in the street for both the look and the sound of the car.
