[@Yash9278]

Yeah... Even I liked him so much.

[@venzoah]

[@Boobalooo]

Year... um even i liked him like a lot....

This would be my top choice for an EV. It’s so well rounded. I can tell you had fun on the track and the drifting on the skid pad was a real treat. Good job

[@kingofthenerds7925]

Love how Porsche can even make EV's sound nice to drive

[@ehh2681]

The Porsche Taycan sound is what makes this car the winner for me. It just sounds so amazing on the outside like there’s a spaceship rolling by.

[@claytonjacobs8812]

that drifting section looks fun as hell!

[@danmurphy1994]

Porsche+EV= match made in heaven. They can make RR drivetrain not only extremely safe so that anyone can drive it but also faster than anything else with even remotely similar power level. So when you tell them to make an EV which is already the perfect vehicle design for weight distribution and handling due to how low the weight is and how evenly distributed it can be then they are gonna make something EXTREMELY special and that’s what they’ve done with the Taycan. That car can handle so ridiculously well for weighing 5000lbs, it’s quite impressive that it puts out similar Nurburgring times as the Model S Plaid which makes over 1000hp and weighs about the same! Just goes to show how good Porsche is at engineering performance machine. Handling is their bread and butter.

[@joshuanassir6487]

Mine is only a 4S, but it's an amazing vehicle. Being able to take corners like it's nothing, followed by the instant acceleration and torque of the electric engine is just awesome. Of course if you're just going down some twisty roads a 911 wins, but the Taycan is insane for normal city driving.

[@Mark-rt6fy]

And last week just gave taycan turbo gt 1000hp and shaved *17* seconds off plaid's laptime.

[@Dyer190]

Always a pleasure to see Topher upload so early in the morning!

[@Lil_kmartt]

The Taycan is so beautiful can’t wait to get one 🤩

[@Coffee-xh4kp]

Wow!!!! That was soooooo much fun to watch while wearing headphones. Great video. One of the best.

[@maroofr]

The noise on the skidpad bring back memories of Knight Rider whenever K.I.T.T. suffered some sort of electrical malfunction. I love it!!

[@sabuba47913]

I live close by there, I've passed the red flag guy and the billboard so many times 😭2:02

[@duranamo4297]

Taycan popped my EV cherry after driving a 4S in a pretty spirited manner! It does things a 5000lb sedan shouldn't do but it damn it was a blast.

[@onfootbassin]

I'm not taking anything away from this truly amazing car, but I can't be the only one who thinks putting "Turbo" in the name of a car that doesn't have one (or especially a gasoline engine to pair it with) is beyond stupid.

[@mr.phantom2770]

i enjoyed every second of the video keep up the good work and keep uploading bangers like this daily

[@gettcouped]

Jeebus, the speed you carry with this 5000 lb monstrosity is nothing short of terrifying!

[@LurkerPatrol]

I'm a simple man. I see Topher, I see Porsche, I destroy the left click button.

[@willisjoe2010]

Nice electric slide dancing 🕺💃

[@tateellinwood]

nothing makes me want to vomit more than seeing digital speedometers update every 6 mph

[@TeenPerspektiva]

Yeah wtf is up with that, awful

[@Ben-jz3mt]

People complain about some of the dumbest things, I swear. The speed doesn’t update super quick. So what.

[@TeenPerspektiva]

@@Ben-jz3mt it should. In most cars it updates properly. And its simple for them to get it right. If a car can be so expensive, i want every part of it to be just right. Otherwise there is no reason to not go with something else. Its a porsche. It should be able to display the speed in real time. It doesnt. I will complain. What are you gonna do about it?

[@lukewest708]

@Ben1014 it's a 200k dollar porsche, it's not a big deal in a prius but if a base v6 charger can display speed in real-time then the top of the line electric Porsche should too

[@TeenPerspektiva]

[@coeyischiron9297]

I bet you have a blast driving all these cars, looks like so much fun, wish I can do that.!

[@julio1982]

Sheeesh that thing is fast!!!

[@iantokgirl]

SHEEEESH

[@MisterApeas]

The sound is a cool novelty initially, but I'm wondering how annoying it would be long-term. I assume you can disable all that if you wish.

[@ShoesArtwork]

yes you can toggle it

[@royshavrick]

It honestly is very subtle and just very pleasing to listen to. It's not loud, it's unobtrusive, and gives you a sense of building up speed. Also kinda has a straight cut gear race car sound element to it.

[@astaroth5024]

Why would you wanna do that? The sound is literally the one thing that makes the taycan the only fun EV in the world as of today.

[@rohitknandyala]

@@astaroth5024 some people just like more natural and would prefer not having a sound that is artificial, so that's definitely a reason for it

[@jrzeger]

I love this guy

[@ozarkaviation]

Taycan does sound really good for an EV

[@thinkingai6017]

Nice video man!!

[@elimushinomirsurgenov3336]

Wow, it's very impressive, so fast riding

[@mrniceguy7168]

Nice crossover 👍

[@TheCaesarChris]

Is that your camera gear that is creaking and making that sound or is it the interior 😢

[@larphraulen]

Traction control I think

[@ziggy149]

When oh when are you going to do a vid on the Macan GTS? That was supposed to go down awhile ago. Just realized today that I wasn’t subbed. I am now. Mine doesn’t get here til mid-May now and I know you’d put a tester through its paces. Any word sir?

[@albertvathapally84]

Where is the turbo located?

[@Ben-jz3mt]

Nowhere. That’s just the name of the mid trim model

[@nov1cealgae409]

crazy, similar sound to mission r

[@alengreen589]

has the Taycan a Single Turbo or a Twin Scroll Turbo ?

[@mainsera4407]

It’s electric

[@DoctuhJ]

I was watching this while treadmilling and the head movements had me dizzy. 😅

[@canadianaviator]

Wassup with that interior creaking noises???

[@hampps4729]

love your videos, but honestly can't finish this one. Electric cars are just not as thrilling as watching a petrol car POV.

[@rudolphna54]

Yeah the noise is more important than the speed amirite

[@gDiniM]

I feel that, I’m sure it would be fun to experience the car in this event but that sound is actually annoying to me. Nothing to me beats the sound of an ICE engine and exhaust.

[@MakeItRayne]

Gotta say, the things that Topher was doing in this video is what would sell me on an EV. This or the Audi are the only EV's I would consider until we see the Charger EV or a direct competitor by Lexus. Everything else in the EV market looks like hot trash to me personally.

[@mharro88]

The Ioniq 6 N will be more fun to drive than this

[@SwitchedDreams]

not a fan of EVs.
