Little Details

Has anyone else noticed the hidden drains in the rear trunk side frame? When you raise the trunk lid after a wash or rain any residual water on the lid drains nicely off the lid and down into hidden drains in the trunk frame.

Love that attention to detail!

I thought the exact same thing the first time I washed the car and opened the trunk. Love the attention to detail.

Oh, so it doesn’t run off the window directly into the trunk??? ?

Hilarious. That about sums up the Tesla/Taycan comparison!

Is that the same on all model 3s?
Really poor design.

I noticed this yesterday as I was washing my Taycan. Superb detail.

My Volvo V60 from 2015 easily gets rid of the water as well, so perhaps it’s a Tesla problem and not Porsche excellency? ?

I think it was just on early designs and they have since fixed it.

I get lots of water falling onto the quarter panel from residual draining from underneath the spoiler after a wash. I have not yet washed with the spoiler in "wash mode" - I will try that next time.
