[@cmacd8879]

Regarding Brian's fear of accidents due to excessive speed in such a heavy car, I think this is valid. My Range Rover weighs less than this, still heavy, but does not encourage the speeds that the Taycan does, so you never really get into situations where the weight will cause you problems. It will in this car.

[@supaahflyy]

Yeh agreed. I got a Tesla model s which is a porker, a little bit lighter than the taycan but heavy nonetheless and you definitely don't want to drive too fast when slowing down such a heavy car in slippery conditions

[@-Munditimum-]

When the vents are electronic. The driver doesn't have to get out of his/her seat to adjust all of them. Plus, you can also place the positions in the key fob memory for when you come back, particularly if the car is shared.

[@ronb4633]

Thanks for the review. Many good details, but a few things that did concern me. 1. The comments on the"flying saucer noise". Well I don't mean to argue what you may personally think of when you hear it but Porsche has clearly stated in other videos that the sound is NOT artificial, it was recorded from the actual sound of the motors with some synthesizer enhancements. 2. The concern on breaking, I have watched so many other videos and no one had brought that up. Also Porsche has put on 10 piston ceramic coated steel breaks standard on front of Turbo, I think Carbon Ceramic are standard on Turbo S. Porsche does this because they worry so much about breaking performance to verify repeatability from 80% of vmax to 50mph. I have not been blessed yet to try the Taycan, but I expect to be more than satisfied with it's breaking performance.

[@David-Zita]

It's always a delightfully articulate and honest way, when Brian reviews cars. Always enjoy it.

[@supaahflyy]

In regards to your question about braking in a heavy car such as a Tesla: you definitely feel the weight when braking. Most of the braking is like you said with the regen braking. But when you do need the brakes you definitely feel it. But I would hazard and say Porsche have better and bigger brakes than a Tesla and therefore they might have mitigated that weight to a greater extent

[@Hercegovac.1]

I didn’t expect nothing less from the Autogefühl team!! Fantastic presentation from Brian 👍

[@autogefuehl]

[@robingoergner725]

Well done Brian and Jonas and a great review! As a current EV owner, I would be very happy to take ownership of a Taycan. I love the effortless and quiet delivery of power. I will never go back to a combustion-engined car. Excellent design. Clean lines without nonsense like fake air intakes or vents. It's refreshing to see a car with a great alternative to animal-skin interiors from a premium manufacturer. Well done, Porsche! I would have liked some physical knobs for the climate control, but I think I could get used to the touch screen. I understand that the Turbo badging is in line with that of other Porsche models, but I think they could have come up with something more in keeping with a new electric platform. I would go for one with a panoramic roof, perhaps in Thomas Blue.

[@autogefuehl]

This is the Taycan review I was I waiting for.

[@vanceshaw3675]

Great review. I much prefer buttons and knobs. I don’t like parsing through menus or touching a flat piece of glass.

[@joa8593]

It's quite a bit less safe to have a screen as well. Research is starting to really show that.

[@makatron]

For climate control and volume it should be physical controls.

[@karimbero5620]

I agree. They feel "natural". But they won't come back: buttons and knobs are more expensive to manufacture. A touch screen is simply software inside. So for profit reason, they will not bring them back.

[@makatron]

@@karimbero5620 I'm fine with touch surfaces as long as they have a physical marks so one can find by feel

[@autogefuehl]

[@H.K_R]

Autogefühl shame

[@effervescence5664]

That AC display setup is exactly why I prefer the Mercedes S/E/GT 4 door etc set up, wrap around screens and then physical buttons and toggles you can actually use while driving. Until voice controls get good enough (and we can all agree they won't be able to change where it's sending air, only on/off) physical controls will always be better than digital screens.

[@ronpass2276]

Great review and confirmed my decision that I ordered the TAYCAN TURBO almost two years ago and have now sold my Tesla which I loved but this car is a dream come true for the EV fans !

[@autogefuehl]

good luck m8 and thanks for tuning in!

[@joa8593]

The all screen control is a disaster. It totally undermines any claim by Porsche of being driver-centric and sacrifices safety just for a short-lived cool factor. The control of the vents is also terrible; not because there needs to be more settings, but because you need to go swimming through menus to get the air out of your face. With traditional vents you can flail blindly at the air while driving and it'll just work. I hope automakers wake up from this no button fever dream. Volvo and Subaru also have made their controls as bad as possible to fit in big screens, Toyota even put one of these monstrosities in the top trims of the Prius.

[@MaxMustermann-zp5xy]

While I agree with you on the vent controls you have to take into account that all modern premium cars have good voice control systems. I don't know how good Porsche's is but I recently played around with the Mercedes MBUX and found it to be excellent. Having voice control changes a lot since it's even less distracting (and thus safer) than buttons.

[@joa8593]

@@MaxMustermann-zp5xy Voice control does help, but on really crappy roads or something I suspect you'll wish they just kept the damn vents

Great review, keep up the good work!

[@gohkkg]

Very detailed review. Like it!

[@steffenk.652]

Absolutely agree: temperature should be adjustable by knobs. I don’t always want to look at a screen to see where to touch.

[@pfan12000]

Porsche has always given their cars brakes that are rated about 4X their engine output for the very reason of safety and control not to mention ultimate performance on the racetrack. Hence you noticed those massive yellow PCCB brake calipers are there to provide hydraulic assisted conventional braking in addition to the regenerative braking you spoke of, So stopping quickly a 5000 lb car will be manageable. Can't wait to see full performance testing articles soon.

[@jost4786]

31:00 - kW Battery? Battery storage capacity is given in kWh, motors deliver power in kW! Similar: One can’t say that a petrol cars fuel tank capacity is 150 horsepower (or kW)

[@jett118]

Another fantastic presentation my friend..this Awesome Bad Boy is now top on our shopping list "thanks to you" it was very helpful...All The Best .

[@autogefuehl]

👌🙏

[@OIOnaut]

Does it coast? When one presses the fast pedal and then lifts it up in a suttle manner, does it coast. What about when entering a curve and one breaks with the left pedal, does it have a progressive feel to it. This is my biggest concern. I drive my Porsche at a track and I would take a taycan there first day. What about drifting? I do not mean street drifting. I mean the treshold when exiting a curve at the limit with no driving aids.

[@michaelchristopher7470]

What a wonderful video! I thoroughly enjoyed your capturing the experience! When this technology does filter down over the next several years, I will definitely own an electric car! Thanks again! What a car!!!

[@sundayadickson]

When it comes to knobs and buttons, you and I are on the same wavelength as I cannot stand smudges on my touch screens.

[@marjanbatic2913]

[@jamessuttie1261]

Outstanding video. Very well presented. I plan to order a Turbo. I was considering a base 4S. But not now!

[@williamwong8781]

I guess the sliding finger to open the charging port action requires battery to power it. What if the car is at 0%? Is there a manual way of opening it?

[@richyzig]

He didn't mention one very important thing: This car doesn't offer the one-pedal driving enjoyment one has with many other BEV's. I understand why, to make it more authentic on the track, but it should at least be offered optional in the menu settings - it's a very nice feature in the city.

[@964tractorboy]

I can't get over the lack of real buttons. It never ceases to amaze me that touch-screens aren't banned on a safety basis.

[@nikoleknight2522]

It seems a lot of people are stuck in the past with the whole “buttons or nothing” ideology. Buttons make a car look dated and tacky. we need screens for navigation, etc. plus most cars today accelerate so quickly, physical tachometers can’t keep up. I don’t see what the big deal is about safety. You have to look away to press something no matter if it’s a button or a screen...

Those wheels are comical - ridiculously, unnecessarily massive. That said, this is by far the best EV the world right now.

[@karimbero5620]

This is a great review. Very detailed. But I have a question: aren't the air vents 2:04 actually disturbing the airflow? If you look at the headlights 3:23 they don't seem very sleek. Don't those cavities perturb aerodynamics?

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks!

[@barbarusbloodshed6347]

It's funny seeing PORSCHE come out with an electric car when just a few months ago I told some car enthusiasts that we're only a year or two away from the electric boom on the car market and was laughed at. I mean, it's PORSCHE! A sports car brand. If such a brand develops an electric car you know they know that change is imminent and the combustion engine's time is up. Nice review! And an awesome car. Sadly though with a price I'd never pay for ANY car.

[@subzeroarctics1299]

Completely agree with you regarding the center console buttons. I'd also argue the air vents are rather over engineered, though I respect the idea that people generally either want the air facing them or away from them, but Porsche should've instead implemented these options as buttons on the individual vents.

[@wizdeas6064]

The Porsche HVAC interface may be all glass. But at least it has icons that resemble buttons we know, along with the haptic feedback. So it doesn't seem so bad to me (though I prefer volume; station changing, and temperature fan buttons myself). However, you can do a good deal through the steering wheel controls and Voice Command.

[@NeonLuvBar]

32:49 did the car judder on hard acceleration, or was it just the camera mounted on the window shaking ?

[@autogefuehl]

[@kevinn1158]

Great car, that none of us can afford. Thank you Porsche. Battery technology isn't ready yet and the weight and cost of of this vehicle reflects this. Let's see how the winter affects the range. Any who.... Great review Brian!

[@nikoleknight2522]

I think everything in this video proved the technology is ready imo. And the cost of the vehicle has nothing to do with it being electric. Look at the panamera. It’s priced very similar. I think it’s worth the price.

[@kevinn1158]

@@nikoleknight2522 Here in Canada, the Taycan turbo costs 39k dollars more than a Panamera turbo. 5 mins to fill up your Panamera turbo to 100%, 22 mins at a rapid charger your Taycan to 80%. And the Taycan weighs 700 lbs more than the Panamera. (Winter weather and hot summers kills the range of all of these EVs as well.) And Elon pumping up his stupid pick up truck. Watch the range of that POS drop off a cliff once it tows something or has a load in the back of the truck. An Audi E tron costs 90k to start. An Audi SQ5 is 28k dollars less. That's like 10-12 years of petrol costs...

[@h0lyhandgrenade]

I'm more curious about what this feels like compared to a P100D, not any other combustion engine. Because let's be honest, that comparison has been one and done long ago due to Tesla.

[@knightfox1461]

Why touch screens instead of good old buttons and dials? Imagine trying to press a touch screen button on a kinda rough surface. You miss it and press some other button like it happened to me today with my tab.

[@JMartinni]

50:00 Um. You're sure the supposedly weak braking is down to the weight of the vehicle and not because you were driving in the wet? Autogefühl never mentioned anything about long braking distances with the Cayenne and Panamera Turbo S E-hybrid which both weigh roughly the same as this and don't have that amount of recouperation braking on top of the carbon-ceramics. Braking distances can increase substantially in the wet with any vehicle.

This was an excellent review! Thoughts on the touch panels, when the state-of-the-art interactive hi-tech consumer electronic products - being smartphones and apple watches - manufacturers and developers poured in countless of hours and money into the developments, yet still retain some sort of buttons and knobs should be enough to suggest how a level of physical interface presence is needed to achieve the perfect intuitiveness, in the best interest of the consumers. Car manufacturers should take note of that going forward implementing full-on touch interfaces, it should be for the convenience of the customers not for the sake of "looking futuristic".

[@autogefuehl]

[@dsp1970]

185,000 staring price is staggering for an electric car! If i wanted to go green and start hugging trees which I don't but I'd probably save a bunch of cash and get the Tesla model S performance at 105,000!

Serious competition to Tesla Roadster. Much cheaper, is a proper 4-seater, has much better interior and exterior styling. Sure the roadster is much lighter and slightly faster but it will be priced >200k euros. I also thing the handling of so much torque on the Tesla will cause many, many crashes but this remains to be seen. Just one request to Porsche ... please drop that "Turbo" from the name as it sound ridiculous on an EV.

The Tesla Roadster II is a paper tiger, so far only available in dreams of Tesla fanboys. Compared to the original Tesla Roadster there is no doubt that Tesla wasn't 20 years ahead. If you do need to compare this to a Tesla it will be the Tesla Model S, but even then the two cars aren't really competitors as the few who would consider both is likely to be collectors who would want both cars in their collection. The cars that could be threatened by Porsche delivering an EV will most likely be everyday sports cars that run on gasoline. The ones who usually compete with the Porsche 911 and Porsche Panamera and the two cars themselves. It could perhaps cost a few Tesla Model 3 sales, after all some fans of German sports cars will prefer to stay with Porsche, but that is it. The number of electric Porsche models produced is going to be comparatively low to the numbers other EV manufactures claim they will produce, and what Tesla already produces, with just 40,000 planned, so there will be space for more manufacturers

[@flamaest]

So glad Porsches making this and glad to see competition in the market. That being said, this might be the first time that I actually see the car from the side. The front and back look great, but the side of the car looks quite boring and not worth what they're asking. For that kind of money, I expect my car to stand out and make a statement from all angles.
