Dreaming of a time when we can travel properly again and I will drive to the Alps for the next ski season. Does anyone have experience of snow chains on the Taycan?

I think I'll just get the chains that Porsche use. You can buy them at nearly 50% of the Porsche price directly from the OEM – though without the nice bag Porsche give you.

I just can't remember right now the name of the vendor that Porsche is using. I'm sure I've written it down somewhere – will post here when I find it!

Ah, I had bookmarked that post @TIM from back in October. I knew I had "written it down" somewhere :)

I do find it hilarious that they have this marketing diagram (link here) that suggests that the weakest aspect of the snow chains is their "suitability on snow".

I really like AutoSocks if they count as a traction device in your area.
