Where did you order the rear bike carrier from? I have been told that it not yet availiable to order.
In the US configurator, it’s available as a Tequipment addition with a build.
Suncoast don’t have it listed yet, but as with the Performance Roof Box, you might be able to order through the parts department at your dealership.
You should check that your CT has the NG1 carrier preparation if ordering separately.

Edit: looks like both @ciaranob and I responded simultaneously!

I just finished measuring:

Thanks for the exact measurements.

If my math is correct, these dimensions work out to ~20 cu ft not including the unmeasured side compartments. Not too shabby!

so
35w 40.5d 26h and 17 to the cargo cover.
A little better than the folding ruler method. :)

Thanks so much
Not sure why its so narrow though. Watched a review of the Audi A5 sportback from the same guy and he measures its width (between the wheel wells) at about 40". That's despite the car being about 5" narrower than a Taycan!

Based on a quick Google search, it appears the A5 Sportback does not have an option for rear wheel steering. That may account for the greater space between wheel wells vs. the Taycan.

The Taycan is tapered to the distinct Porsche shape past the c pillar which makes it narrower above the wheels. It would be odd to have angled sides in cargo area so I’m guessing Porsche utilized that space for equipment, perhaps for compressor/air suspension.

I also wonder if the tire/wheel options on the Taycan are wider necessitating deeper wheel wells that invade the cargo/trunk area? *edit* looks like max tire width difference is 30 mm which alone is over 2 inches when accounting for both sides.

As prev shared this review link below shows the guy putting 4 x 20" rims with tires into the CT after removing the privacy tray - not bad!



Someone else mentioned putting two Mtn. bikes in there after of course removing front wheels and placing in separately - have not actually seen that and suspect if larger frames involved may be challenging with even rotated handlebars - but even if just one bike fits decently that's a bonus for me when I do not want to use the full bike carrier, which I have also ordered :).
I got one mountain bike in fairly easily with front tire removed. 2 would be challenging but not impossible. The boot slopes which is the problem. Am still awaiting arrival of the (very expensive!) bike rack. Last time I asked they hoped for September.
