I've been tryin to get to know my Taycan 4S and last night I went for a short test-drive to get more feel with the car.
Since I got the car about 3 weeks ago I've been feeling the engine power is somewhat unpredictable. Sometimes it seems quick, sometimes less so. So last night I turned on the G-force meter (recording max forces) and went for it. I did numerous lanuches and accellerations from different speeds. All done in "Sport Plus" mode.
Here is what I found:
I've been wondering how the Overboost function works on the Taycan and it seems slamming the throttle fully in actually gives better performance than launch control. One thing is the initial kick but it also seems to keep pulling harder this way.
Anyone else experience this behaviour?

Here is what I found:
- Giving it full throttle like you would out of corners from constant speeds at 55-60km/h (34-37mph) : 0,73g
- Quickly slamming full throttle from constant speeds at 55-60km/h (34-37mph): 0,93g
- Launch control from 0km/h(0mph): 0,80g
