Hi friends
I’d like to know from taycan owners which optionals are best between

hot/cold seats

or

all leather interiors


I know the best would be both but I want to save money and I don't know if I can avoid some things in an electric car

Depending on your climate. We have hot/humid summers and cold winters. Because of my location, I would option the heat/cooled seats. I would really miss the heated seats.

I agree - if you are in a hot/cold climate you'll definitely want the heating/cooling on the seats. The non-leather interior on the Taycan is VERY nice.

Picked up my Taycan 4S Monday. Amazing car. I can say that the Leather interior (mine is in Chalk) is soooooooo much nicer than the standard in my opinion. The leather stitching adds a level of refinement that you want in this car. That said, I also have heated/cooled seats and I can tell you that having cold air on my bum is quite nice (I live in Austin TX - gets quite hot).
If you can only do one - my advice is to do the leather.

Heated & cooled seats will make you more comfortable. The leather will add some aesthetic appeal. Get the options that improve the way the car drives & comfort before paying for aesthetics.

The Standard interior is very nice and suits the car very well. The steering wheel & seats are still leather and the rest of the material is very soft touch and feels as nice as the leather Porsche uses.

I agree that the priority should be on comfort. I have black Olea leather but miss seat ventilation very much. I am also In quite warm climate. Seat heating is quite nice in winter times when as well.

The question you need to ask is: Do you prefer a sweaty/cold ass over a good looking dashboard?

In my case, I hate a sweaty ass and the standard interior surpasses any other car I have ever had.

You have good reasons...I already have black/red full leather interior in my Cayenne coupe hybrid...I like it but for the first time Porsche made a good standard interior.

before that standard interior is more cheap and very rubber...

I ask this because I don’t know if in this EV an owner always switch on AC or Heat pump instead cold/hot seats...

i hope you understand my English

In my current car, the temperature in the cabin can be perfect due to the AC, but I still get warm and sweaty in my back from the seat. Seat ventilation will at least improve that somewhat (I hope).
