    Taycan 4S Review (80kWh) with DC charge sessions and 'Taycan Math'

    I did a YouTube review of the Taycan 4S, with the objective of testing the DC fast chargers (Electrify Canada 350kW -800V, and Petro Canada 350kW - 400V). Also I thought I would offer a 'Math' section going through all the rates and measures as it is a topic that still confuses many. It is...

    Taycan Maintenance Schedule

    The standard warranty on the battery is 8 years and can be extended. Individual cells can be replaced. We may also see some battery-only warranties for older electric cars, that will enable people to continue driving older EV's without the fear of a giant bill (that is my prediction).

    Taking One Lap of the Country in my Taycan Turbo - 10k miles in 6 weeks Cross-Country Journal

    I think the limitation is that the Petro Canada stations are 400V, and the car can only take a maximum of 150kW with a 400V charging station, and that is with the optional on-board 150kW DC charger (and at $C520 I would recommend it). From the Porsche Car Configurator; "Optional on-board DC...
