    UK new BEV registration stats by model, by quarter year

    Q3 2023 is the most recent period for which data has been published. I cut the list- the source continues in descending order beyond the Eletre. Audi E-TRON only appears once, so presumably anything with that badge is lumped in to the one line.

    Anyone seen any Porsche Finance PCP final value/payment figures for the refresh Taycan yet?

    I'm curious to see how, as a percentage of the base (i.e. before cost options) price new, they compare with the 66% of base price (ignoring cost options) I was quoted late 2021 for a CT 4S and CT Turbo, after 3 years at 6k annual miles. If I weren't intending to keep this car longer, I'd be...

    New Porsche Taycan first drive: real-world range test (Autocar)

    Despite the title, I didn't see any mention of the tested real-world range...but I found this bit interesting: "All of which, says Giek, is why we can’t expect a sub-2000kg Taycan in the near future: “Not with current tech. You have to use carbonfibre, but then it’s not a Taycan any more, then...

    BBC NEWS- Electric cars: Lords urge action on 'misinformation' in press [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    Not news to us, but good that there is at least acknowledgement of the media campaign to feed the easily-manipulated. What the government does to counter it is another matter. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-68130432

    Wheel & Tyres storage service- did you get a record of the specific items stored on your behalf?

    I've been told that my Porsche dealership only provides a tyre storage receipt for the amount I pay for the service, not a description of the items (specific wheels, tyres, hub covers). After several weeks, I've managed to get an email acknowledgment of what I told them were the items. I'm...

    Left foot braking with foot on throttle- how does car interpret simultaneous pedal inputs?

    In track driving at full throttle, when taking a nearly flat-out corner (so not a common scenario), when it might be better to transfer weight by braking while staying on full throttle, how does the Taycan react to those inputs- does it give one pedal priority and ignore the other, or try and...

    "It's got to be the best all-round car ever"- Taycan Cross Turismo 4S review

    After doing a video about the UK EV values crash, reviewer buys a MY23 Taycan for £66k. Notably, in another video about his car (apparently with 20" wheels) he says that the ride comfort isn't far off that of a Wraith. Review after 7 days of ownership-

    Porsches v Ferraris

    I found this an interesting take, though I find his prosody* rather distracting. (*yes, I did have to find the right word to use and now hope to remember it long enough to use it again).

    "The best EV on sale for driving fun"- Autocar tests the Ioniq 5 N

    He's obviously loving it, and it seems a very competent car, though its USP seems to be offering thr most ICE-like experience from an EV. Personally I think the control interface and its configuration look overwhelming- not in a good way- and for all that drift optimisation functionality it...

    Great FREE Porsche app for capturing & analysing real-time driving data (requires MY22+ & Sport Chrono)

    I decided to familiarise myself with the free Porsche Track Precision app (for Android phones or the other one) as a potentially useful tool for my upcoming track tuition course. Not only does it automatically recognise and lap time many circuits (and can easily be taught additional ones), it...

    😮 It's a LEGO BMW i8 Jaguar i-pace taxi kind of thing...and I salute it. :clap: Sad that it's not lined up for the UK- not that I want to buy one, but the more interesting-looking cars on the road, the better as far as I'm concerned.

    Win a Taycan 4S CT!- enter draw by 9th July 2023

    Fed up waiting for your order? Quite a lot of detail is listed, including some of the £20k of cost options. Maybe this car was an order cancelled by a fellow forum member? (Apparently, 80% of the overall draw net proceeds goes to Blood Cancer UK charity.)...

    MyPorsche is reporting Total Trip economy 13% higher than supported by individual trip data

    I've long been suspicious of my reported 3.1 mi/kWh over the 12 months I've had my car, because I rarely reach that number in my individual trips. Recent discussion in another thread has prompted me to review all my trip data reported in MyPorsche: Having laboriously copied and pasted all the...
