You can order it now. $6395 from Suncoast. Dealbreaker though: maximum speed with roof tent: 130 km/hr (~80 mph).

I had an etron and it was nice. Definitely a good value compared to the Taycan, but I would disagree on the glitchiness. Audi also has app and infotainment issues. Even in early 2021 you could get etrons at a big discount. I sold mine to the Ford dealer when my Bronco came in. It was just a...

Please tell me you did not add RAS and PASM to a base Taycan.

How fast are you going? Unless you’re taking your corners at 100 mph / 120 km/h I don’t think you have anything to worry about. The regen alone is braking you very rapidly if you lift off the accelerator. If you are late braking then yeah you’re going to mash a bit with regen on and find the...

Pretty sure Ken Block is rocking a suction cup based cargo box on his etron GT RS that he took around Laguna Seca so it’s dependent on some things like checking the cups regularly. There is a Chinese company with an automated system that will detect low pressure and automatically pump the air...

What about a whiner’s subforum for people who don’t even own a Taycan? That one would be a hit. I’m afraid to come on here because then I have to talk about not having any problems which seems like a recipe for disaster…

Is that a J Patrick house? Do you know the guy with a yellow 911 turbo?

There’s no EV where “long” trips are without risk, especially in cold temps. You will need AAA and a SPOT messenger/satellite phone. However anything under 300 miles is not bad. Once you get to 3X that your route planning gets painfully complicated so the sweet spot is right around 500 miles...

What I was saying is that the entire etron hatch opens to clear a hitch bike rack. It’s not the window (which doesn’t open). Maybe because they run batteries all the way to the back the trunk bumper sits quite high and the hatch does not run down as low as your typical SUV/hatch. It ends up...

Now you just need a frunk bag and a bag that fits the space under the trunk floor.

The nice thing about the Audi etron is that you can open the rear hatch with a hitch bike rack not even tilted or swung open. It makes the CT kinda silly IMO considering how expensive it is compared to an etron.

You need to understand how your initial SOC and battery temp determines charging speed. Show up with less than 10% and make sure you map out the station using the Porsche navigation and the battery will precondition itself (warm up) before arrival. Then you will find shorter charge times. Show...

You can set those filters in PlugShare.

Personally, I don’t see the point in the base Taycan. 1) the air suspension doesn’t come standard, which really affects both the looks and functionality 2) if you opt for the CT then you get air suspension and AWD for a tiny premium and better performance. If I were you I’d consider the CT base...

You want to get the charger that makes the most sense for your situation. I have an Etron and a ‘20 Taycan so I have effectively both chargers. I never used the Porsche charger until we were at an RV spot and it didn’t work because it was detecting a ground fault. The Etron somehow fried my...

In my 4S the lights turn as standard. I think the option package may include something additional to this but like quite a few Porsche “options” they’re selling you something you already have.

You definitely get a "free" sound playing outside the car that you can hear at low speed below 40 mph. You can also upgrade the sound later as it is just software and apparently something that can be installed at any time. As with all Porsche options if you have the money then go for it...

Going to assume you're taking it easy on the accelerator pedal given your experience level... my 7 year old and 9 year old have been driving quite a bit in Forza Horizon 4. Buy yourself a $700 setup and you'll be able to drive your Taycan as fast as you want when Forza Horizon 5 comes out in...

I never said this was a Porsche thing. You made it sound technically impossible so I’m just asking the questions.

EVs alone are a long way from mass adoption. You could argue vehicle ownership is becoming more and more obsolete. I’m not sure what you’re trying to say, but for some, this should be technically feasible. Nobody is saying it will be a universal thing just like EVs are still a niche product.
