I am in Minnesota where it’s below 0C for at least half of the year. My Taycan has been my daily driver since September (after an interminable wait!). I find it absolutely phenomenal in the cold with great handling and the lovely precook/heat timers coupled with being able to hit the button at...

This is an interesting post since I had the exact opposite scenario. We had several inches of snow dumped atop ice, I’m on the downslope on the road, my car is holding fine while cars around me are sliding and can’t make it up the hill. Oh I slid when I came to a stop. But once held it was rock...

The car glides without it, it’s a thing of true beauty. I love driving without regen. No mode will turn it on by default. If you have the sport steering wheel and have the individual mode, you can save this in your individual setting so it goes on automatically, but I don’t know why you’d ever...

Any time I am having a bad day I’m coming back to read this thread. Thanks @Dee and @Vim Schrotnock for sharing your misery and making the rest of us feel better.

This is great info! My wife and I have been randomly kicking around (and often kicking the car) to see when it works. It’s become a bit of a joke since we’re totally surprised each time it actually works...now with the secret key I can’t wait to show off my kicking prowess!

I use it almost exclusively for the preheat function. But it stopped working for me about a month ago and still hasn’t been restored. :mad: Yes we can create timers and have those pre heat / cool the car, and that works fine when I have a regular schedule, and I can hit the pre heat/cool button...

No but it is in UK (I recall that PPS post and have been yearning to get that in the States, I hate the bumpy not black plastic material on my jet black Taycan)! Canada is like UK in the Americas, get the cousins to send some PPS love our way, once us southerners are allowed back up north we can...

Left elbow on the B-pillar and right hand on the A-pillar (outside). It isn’t the most natural, but strangely it’s more comfortable than some other cars I’ve had. To be clear, it does suck, mounting my thigh over the bolster and coordinating a push / pull to lever myself out of my car (I’m 6’1”...

Same, and I have not yet had the frunk actually work from the hand gesture. Fortunately it’s so seldom I want it open that I don’t really care, at least not much. Now if the trunk would stop sounding like a trash truck backing up (without requiring a mod)...

I am pretty sure it is acrylic or treated glass as they state to not use cleaning products directly on it, but I don’t know the definitive answer. I will say whatever the surface is, it sure loves fingerprints!

My problem is similar but different: I can see my car info in Connect app, but I cannot remotely preheat / cool (MN fall, it’s heat I’m after). I started with my dealer, he contacted the Connect team on my behalf. They were able to replicate the same thing and so I wait again...

Ditto. A few minor items, and a few annoyances (like the stupid trunk lid), but nothing really major. Sounds like @The Captain got a pretty crappy hand!

Weight matters a lot in terms of power and efficiency. What you’re seeing isn’t just weight, but weight of components that negatively impact weight but positively affect the performance. Efficiency is the big loser here.

Follow up...same route but avoided the freeway work around saving 3 miles of circuitous driving. The real BUT this time is that it isn’t a gorgeous October day requiring air conditioning to cool the car, instead it’s running the heat the whole time while the external temp went from 34F to 36F...

That blows on so many levels. And sadly I may have to start escalating as well. It’s really weird, the Connect app and the website see my car, give me current info, but when I try the remote pre-heating I just get an error message. I’m more than a little irritated right now. Please keep posting...

I didn’t spec it. I don’t use CC a lot as it is and didn’t see the value of the purchase. I have done a few 100+ mile drives since getting the Taycan, I spent a lot of it using normal cruise control. I’d have to go up and down on occasion, the stick control is easy enough. I did think a few...

Once you get over the sticker shock, you get to enjoy a truly amazing piece of machinery crossed with luxury. I love mine, I’m sure you will love yours as well.

You have 5 minutes to jet and get warm before snow? I’ve never seen the symbol, would love to know the real answer!

Battery Plus is a larger capacity battery that improves range and performance. The heat pump will warm the batteries to improve efficiency.

I missed something. Where is the posting / details of this January PCM update?
