And this is why I no longer look at "lists" that appear in my news feed by writers that have no knowledge of their subject matter and are merely putting up words to support the clickbait that will benefit advertisers. F*cked up.

Came across a similar article, different source, listing Taycan as least reliable. Among reasons listed included, “starting issues when too hot or too cold, rough idle, stalling, and emissions failures.” Some fine journalism these days. Lol!

Who cares? I know I don’t buy my cars from reading lists or car magazines or from watching YouTubers.

this is the first I hear about "uneven breaking"; does anybody have more details? In my experience, my CT4 despite having standard steel brakes holds up just fine coming down a tall mountain with some repeated acceleration/braking, and from 220km/h to 100km/h in matter of seconds on the autobahn more than once and always with immense stability, using what I judge to be c. 80% of braking power.

The Internet is just 99% utter 5hite nowadays.
Anyone can post anything with almost impunity.

Monetised Click bait and political interests etc add to the mix.

Previously, our primary sources of information (TV, Radio, newspapers, magazines) generally toed the line and were at least broadly honest. Nowadays, anything goes.

And swathes of people are unable (or uninterested) to sort fact from fiction.

when I drive my wife's CT4, the travel progression of the brakes takes some getting used to. I don't think there's issues with power but the feel is different to me. definitely accentuated since I drive it maybe once a month
