Do you miss the acceleration of the Tesla MYP? This is one of my concerns moving from a P100D to a 4S.

Range is a tough thing to nail down especially for folks in the colder climates. I am still not sure if Porsche was right to understate the Taycan's range. It gave the wrong impression to prospective owners and likely hurt initial sales significantly. As a side note, when I test drove the...

At the EA stations, were you able to use the 350kw stations and achieve peak charging above 200kw?

Great thread and feedback! I have been lurking here for a while. Trying to decide if I can make the jump from my 2017 Model X P100DL to a Taycan 4S, but have been hesitant. Like most former Tesla owners here, I am not happy with the quality and customer service. I test drove a 4S and was...

In the US, isn't this option useless? I thought all non-Tesla DC fast chargers in the US (that are over 50kw) are on the 800V system.

Thanks! Thank you. Great article! Makes sense that they did 50kw, especially in rural areas. Hopefully utilities will figure out a way to eliminate demand charges for EV stations. I see you are from Chicago. I will be doing a handful of trips a year between Minneapolis and Chicago and would...

Why are all the ZEF energy stations only 50kw? Seems like an odd choice. It is great that they have deployed them in a lot of rural locations though. Off topic - I am in MN as well and considering a 4S. How do you like Minneapolis or St Paul dealerships?

Plaid+ depends on the 4680 cells which are not ready yet. Model S Plaid is coming in March and uses current battery tech. I own a Model X P100DL currently and I am considering getting a Taycan 4S to move to a sportier car. I assume the Model S Plaid will not handle as well as the Taycan, but...

Thanks for the info! And great to hear a lot of Taycan owners are road tripping with EA successfully. I am in the Twin Cities area and do road trips to Chicago. The charging curve got me curious and agree that the comparable trip should be the same or faster in a Taycan depending on 150kw or...

I am interested in moving from a 2017 Model X to a Taycan 4S. I plan to take a 400 mile road trip a handful of times a year. I saw the Out of Spec video and all the issues they had with EA which concerns me. I checked my route on PlugShare and it looks like all of the 350kw EA chargers are the...

If you take your car to the dealership to just do software updates, do they charge you a fee?

Is this largely due to the ambient temperature? Do find drain in colder weather?

Is avg. speed correct? Is it factoring stopping to charge?

Do you think that is because of the cold weather or Porsche is restricting kw on new models? Btw - love the adventure! Thanks for posting.
