Does anyone ever actually use Sport mode?

Oof, lowest suspension in soft mode. Do you hit bump stops at all?

I have a CT which is slightly higher ride height than sedan, so haven’t hit it yet. But the roads here are bad enough I drive in regular height 99% of the time

... The main meaningful difference seems to be the permanent preconditioning of the battery.

No. Sport Plus will also set your spoiler to stage 3 (highest angle) at 90 kph And keep it there until you're down to 60 - 65 kph.

Thanks for the correction. I wouldn’t know, the wagon doesn’t have such a thing. But ?

Oh yeah, right. Forgot about that. Oh well, it's not the end of the world. With no manual control over it, the spoiler just isn't that "cool". Give me my "hey-look-at-me" button, Porsche. The Etron GT has it! Even when you prop it up with a PIWIS it'll still automagically go down after 60. Can't park it for attention. ?

I saw a Taycan sedan in stop and go traffic (definitely below 60) with the spoiler up. I remember it because my passenger pointed out "look, same car as yours" and then added "oh, it looks something is broken on the back". I replied explaining it's just a manually extended spoiler (I too have a CT, assumed you can manually extend it on the Taycan like in my old 911). So it seems there is a way, unless my passenger was right and it was just broken.

That's just manual cleaning mode. Sets the spoiler to stage 1. Aka the "oh-look-they-forgot-to-close-their-trunk" look. If you ever see one fully out then it's a broken one.

You have speed cameras in EU don't you? They will mail you a picture (or maybe email you a link)

Was driving to lunch today and suddently saw a UK taycan GTS in front of me.

Guess what? It does have a spoiler. Well an appendix at least

Confirmed that there's at least one taycan with a spoiler out there. ?

Couldn't confirm if mine has one yet ?

Don't know if the driver is a member on the forum but the license plate is personalised
