    [US] - Over the Top - the well equipped EV home garage…for those that wish to "over do it"…

    Your right. The US misses out on the advantages of 400v three phase. Ie 3x 240v 120deg apart. (240+160) Your 240v is split phase. Ie 2x120v 180deg apart. (120+120). As Porsche has demonstrated, higher voltage can deliver more power (kw) on thinner cables.

    [US] - Over the Top - the well equipped EV home garage…for those that wish to "over do it"…

    Exactly. 11kw is more than enough for home use (unless you use your Taycan as an Uber). We also have 415v 3phase 100amp to the house and have the PMCC 22kw charger. Was originally planning on upgrading the internal AC charger to 22kw when it becomes available however now I don’t think it’s worth...

    Porsche Please Listen the Customers and change……

    This just goes to show that Porsche and Tesla serve two different markets, those that want a drivers car and those that want a flashy Uber. It comes down to taste.

    Do you think it’s hard to get in and out of your Taycan?

    Only when parking with the nose up hill. ☺️

    Any recommendation on portable charge solutions for Taycan in Australia.

    PMCC. I ended up getting a type 2 to type 2 cable for the 7 a 22kw chargers out their with BYO cable. Other than that the ultra Rapid chargers are doing the trick and I am becoming more accustomed to the range on the Taycan.

    Web interface for Porsche connect charger

    I had the same issue here in Australia last week when setting up for my new Taycan. The issue is most likely the IP Address Range of your home network. I initially had 10.0.1.x. and the PMCC would not resolve an IP address. When I changed my home network to 192.168.1.x it all just worked. My...

    Taycan charges to 100% despite profile

    I am having the same issue however it seems to only happen on a Sunny Day as I have a PV system with excess capacity so I feel the car is trying to use that (only Charging at 3kw) however it will ignore the 85% max setting. I feel there is a bug in the optimised charging settings.

    Mobile Charger Connect Does Not Like Class A Networks

    All, Discovered after much Trial and Error and countless calls with Porsche Australia and JetCharge that the Mobile Charger Connect (MCC) does not like Class A IP Addresses. My home network was set up as such with IP addresses in the 10.0.x.x Range. When we first set up the MCC whilst we could...

    Wheels Magazine local review Taycan 4S

    Must admit I do miss the PDK gearbox and the sound of the "flat 6" of my last Porsche however, I am sure mating a PDK to a Taycan engine would create a number of issues to do with Torque, RPM and the fact there are multiple engines to sync also. Sure someone is working on the concept though for...

    Taycan Turbo vs. tuned biturbo Corvette C8 drag races

    Everyone saw it. Out of the box Mid Range Taycan holds its own against a heavily modified corvette. If it was not for the Capped Max speed of the Taycan, (I am sure they could pull more out of the Taycan if they wanted to) there would be no comparison. the message is clear though, 1st Gen...

    Any recommendation on portable charge solutions for Taycan in Australia.

    Seems having a Type 2 32A (22kva) cable in the boot is mandatory to avoid anxiety on long trips. Any suggestions on what would make a good Portable solution?

    Any Idea when Porsche will introduce FoD in Australia.

    Luxury Car Tax avoidance aside. I would be keen to explore other features such as Innodrive in the not to distant future. What are the plans to launch FoD in Australia so this can become a reality like in other countries.

    Took delivery of my 4S in Sydney

    That's not bad. Is yours financed or paid upfront because Shannons quoted me $5300 for the Turbo which I thought was a bit rich as it is only 80Kish more. Maybe the word "Turbo" scares them

    Quick one. Who did you insure with. Seems many Aussie insures are scared of the Taycan ?
