Unfortunately that is not how facelifts work in VAGThey have far more better announced for the Macan EV. I was but hoping it came to the Taycan facelift.
Correct. If I compare with my old S (2017 - max 140kw) I should do 30min. better with the Taycan . But with the new models of 2021 the Tesla charge much faster 250kw . The peak drop garder than the 800v tech used in the Taycan. At the end on a trip of 950km I would do 9h57 with Taycan, 9h37 with new model S. I think the new platform PPE that will be used for Macan and A6 etron with 100kw battery and 800v (+ 2x400v high speed 270kw) will be the good choice. Probably in Taycan 2.The Taycan can charge at 270Kwh. How fast can a model S charge? Honest question, I have no idea.
Range is meaningless if you have to stop for a long time to recharge. In the end, what matters is how many minutes you take from point A to point B.
If you have to do 600km and If the range difference between two cars is like 50km but the car with the greater range spends 50 minutes to recharge while the other does the same in 20 min, in the end, the shorter range car wins.
Obviously that depends on available infrastructure but do the test somewhere with an excellent infrastructure for both cars (Germany?) I'm pretty sure about the results.
No car is currently capable of self driving (currently), to the extent you can answer your emails instead of paying attention. That's a use-case that should not exist at all as it stands, imo. No matter what 'certification' they have. Anyone thinking they can do this is delusional and dangerous if they do itI had a 911 before . I know how it feels. Unfortunately driving the Taycan as it is today didn't bring me what I was expecting from it. I'm waiting for luxury, fun and when I need to have the car taking a little bit control, so I can answer my mails or when I have a drive of 10h , to do it . Speed less than my S , a little more luxurious for sure but not has you might expect from these pricepoint. Audi Gt is then better.
100kWh (not kw) is gross. Taycan's gross is 93,4kWh.Correct. If I compare with my old S (2017 - max 140kw) I should do 30min. better with the Taycan . But with the new models of 2021 the Tesla charge much faster 250kw . The peak drop garder than the 800v tech used in the Taycan.

The tech is out there https://getcruise.com/ - Taycan ST Ecto-1 anyone?!?No car is currently capable of self driving (currently), to the extent you can answer your emails instead of paying attention.
In traffic jam at speed of 50km/h?No car is currently capable of self driving (currently), to the extent you can answer your emails instead of paying attention.

100kw/h vs 84kw/h usable .100kWh (not kw) is gross. Taycan's gross is 93,4kWh.
Are you really expecting significantly more range from this? - Come on.
Your trip calculation is totally wrong in practice. I have Tesla and Taycan as well. Real world charging time is significantly less with a Taycan.
High speed consumption is better with the Taycan because of the two speed transmission. It revs lower when the speed is higher resulting better economy (and better acceleration at higher speed range).
Tesla is a great car in many ways, but real travel time with relatively higher speed is better with the Taycan.
Tesla's economy is great up to 110kph. At constant 140-160kmh on the German autobahn Taycan is way better. This is a personal real life experience not ABRP calculation.
With the note of that our Tesla is a great car on many other ways.
Any speed buddyIn traffic jam at speed of 50km/h?
NO. You are saying things without any background continuously.100kw/h vs 84kw/h usable .
But yes because like you said consumption is beter with the 2 speed and the 800v charge I expect a real difference.. they are 2 great car .
Appliance vs. Driver's machine.Tesla converts are always welcome, but the “look what my Tesla could already almost do 5Y ago” narrative is getting a bit stale. A Tesla is plastic andveganvinyl “leather” with an ugly IKEA dashboard and AliXpress iPad. It’s not a passionate connoisseur‘s car.
Lol. Dumbest post I’ve read so far on TF. And that’s saying something.
