I thought people might like to see some Taycan comparisons with other EV's, all in the same place. There are lots of tests on YouTube but most are anecdotal or just descriptive. There are several reviewers who have a test protocol and provide screen shots that allow you to determine the state of the car. I think they are the gold standard as far as real world testing goes. It should be the EPA, but Meh! If anyone knows of other good quality tests, let me know and I can add to the table. Also if there are any errors or clarifications. It is always a bit of a dog's breakfast figuring out other people's results.
So here's a table ranked by indicated range travelled.
Additional points
I have included my tests as they have a set protocol and are documented. I just don't have any warm weather tests yet.
The only car in the table above that could be considered a direct competitor to the Taycan is the Tesla Model S LR Raven. I have never sat in one let alone driven one, so I have no idea as to how it compares.
There are two cars, the Audi Etron Gt and Mercedes EQS, which could be legitimate competition to the Taycan but that have not been tested yet.
And there some missing tests for the Taycan which could be helpful. Tests at speeds above 80 mph, at temperatures above 90F and below 0F.
Sorry, the tables are misaligned. I don't know how to fix that.
