Thanks for the Help!!

Here´s my Questions
1 - The Mission E had/has a illuminated Porsche Logo on the back and on the Taycan teaser video it also shows the Porsche illuminated logo! Did it make to the final production?
2 - Are the rear turn signals "dynamic" with that cool effect aka Audi/VW Dynamic Turn Signals?
3 - How can you describe the digital display for the air con? 918 Spyder, Mission E, Mission E Cross Turismo , Lambo Hurracan Evo or something else?
4 - Size of navi? More like 992 (10.9") or more Panamera/Cayenne (12.3")

Kind Regards.

3) Can you comment on your thoughts when you compare the finished production Taycan to the Mission-E concept?

It's indeed very similiar. Nearly same front and rear Lights, similiar Interior. Just the bulg from the front mud guard won't be as high as on the Mission E. But all in all they've done a very good Job. I'm sure you guys will like the finished Version.
Thank you for all of your information....Porsche and especially Taycan enthusiasts all greatly appreciate your information!

Do you work at Porsche?

Is the pillar between the doors gone like the Mission E design or greatly reduced in appearance? Thanks for taking the time to give us all so much information.

1.) I think you mean the Porsche lettering. It will be free Floating similiar to the 992 but behind some sort of glass Panel. But it won't be illuminated.
2.) I don't know since I neither drove the finished car nor tested the turn singals till now.
3.) Thats too specific. I didn't tested a lot of Things with the digital Display.
4.) See 3.)

You're welcome.

It's the same as you may seen on the latest prototype pictures. But there is still a pillar and it won't be gone as you saw it from the suicide Concept from the Mission e.

Will the front/rear fenders be as big/wide and aggressive as the mission e? Thanks
Yes, nearly as aggressive. But still a little less high at the front.

1.) Depends on the model. But the avaible size of the wheels will be from 19" to 21".
2.) I don't have the final exact numbers.
3.) Yes, depends on your configuration. But all in all there will be just minor changes as for example more Carbon parts or stuff like that.
3.) Can't give you exact numbers.
5.) Both will be optional. Bose is premium option and Burmester is High End Option.

Great idea about the Q&A!
Here are mine:

1. Air suspension, standard or optional?
2. Ceramic brakes, standard or optional? Same pricing as Panamera?
3. Rear view cameras made it to production? If so, as option for EU?
4. I heard something about "special rims" for first buyers? Any info about that?
5. Any surprises of which we didn't ask about? :angel:
6. Tyre size? Front/rear different?
7. Custom color option available?
8. Gesture control of instruments/airco/radio etc.?
9. Remote control (app) of heating/cooling, like Panamera hybrid?
10. Same options for led matrix lightning like Panamera?

Many thx for answering these Qs in advance! :like:

Grtz Dee.

1. Don't know if it will be optional or standard.
2. Standard for Turbo S, for the rest optional. No information about pricing.
3. Yes and yes I think so.
4. I don't have informations about that. I know they try to offer the Mission E wheels.
5. It will outplay Tesla on so many levels :D
6. 19'' to 21''. Interesting point, I sadly didn't regarded this.
7. I don't have exact informations. PTS options are always different in the particular markets.
8. No information. I didn't really tested the infotainment system till now.
9. Should be integrated or available as an option.
10. Base LED / LED PDLS+ / LED Matrix PDLS+ / LED Matrix PDLS+ Porsche Exclusive

Forgot:
Is Porsche really calling the models "4S" and "Turbo"???
They will use Porsche typical names. Can confirm the name Turbo and Turbo S.

Kind regards

i think what user DEE was asking on #3 was mirrors with rear view cameras (like the Audi E-Tron which are not legal in the US) and not the regular rear view camera on the boot.

In a recent article by automobile mag i believe that porsche said the mirrors with cameras didnt make the cut because of the wide rear.

Regads.

Oh..I thought it was about a normal rear view camera assistance system.
But yes, they won't be in the production model - but that was pretty much obvs. since Day 1
