Vancouver, Canada Taycan driver here. Heater broke two days ago, phoned dealer two days ago and they said I got lucky as they had a few in stock. Normally they say it's very backordered and can take months... what a pain.
Seems like heaters breaking is a normal occurrence?
Hello everyone! I recently drove my Taycan on 2x ~250kms (155 miles) trip and realized the range has been horrible. On my return trip, I took note of the consumption.
Distance: 250kms (155miles)
Consumption: 27.5 kWh/100kms, 44.3kwh/100 miles.
Drove on Range mode, steady 137kmh (85mph)...
Lately, I’ve been seeing a lot of electrical system fault/error posts on FB. From what I see, Taycans that are getting that message seem to be the ones with the 19.6/22 kWh upgraded AC charger. Is this what everyone is getting at too or is it just me?
and how often does the “lock the car, take...
I've seen here on the forum that some people recommend switching off "battery-friendly optimized charging" for faster DC charging. Has anyone tried this before? Is it actually faster? And to those who know anything about how it works, does it actually degrade the battery much faster? I probably...
Pick the leather + the options you want. The leather adds a premium feel to it and judging from what you said, you won't need those other useless bundled options anyways so just opt for the leather.
Hello! To those who received a Taycan Q1 or Q2 this year that optioned the premium package, did your car come with LED MATRIX lights or were they missing like mine? The matrix lights were listed under the premium package at that point in time.
I’ve read on this forum that many were told by...
I promise you the jump from base stereo to Bose stereo is substantial, option it.
RAS can be useful but I do not find it necessary. The taycan is a long car (compared to a mid-size suv, surprisingly it's longer than a cayenne) but it turns better than most cars. I've driven longer cars than...
I’ll like to learn more about the pano roof if anyone knows anything much about it. I have MY22 already so won’t be getting the ‘23 but that pano roof sounds like it’s a game changer for those in hot climates who have issues with the intense heat in the summer. The description reminds me of the...
Thanks for the replies!
Unfortunately, It's a public charger so it's one of those machines that only have a plug and no display.
Are all level 2 supposed to charge at around 8.7kW? My apologies for my lack of understanding of battery physics....
Hello Everyone,
I received my new Taycan around a week ago and charging has been an issue so I'm wondering if anyone can help. At level 2 charging stations, it's only been getting around 3kW/h, roughly 0.4km/min or 0.25miles/min. I've tried plugging the car at my friends' garage where he...
Hello!
Does anybody here know what specs the Taycan press cars usually have? I'm assuming they would show off all the worthwhile features on their cars so I wonder if I can take some inspiration from there!
