I haven’t come here to get argumentative. I know the vast majority will love everything about their Taycan I’m only sharing my experience.
it was an InstaVolt charger and the cable wouldn’t reach (not even close) - what else do you want me to say? Are you questioning my parking skills?

The car is fantastic to drive and feels like a quality bit of engineering but the range is proving to be an issue. I went for the larger battery but I...
Hi, I was also there on Friday afternoon with my wife. Had an absolutely fantastic time especially on the kick plate. The hospitality was first class as well! Only downside is my wife is pregnant so she couldn’t join in the fun!
Just wanted to say thank you to everyone for this thread! Got my pictures on Friday after checking daily when the car went into production.
picking up on Friday!
