This car costs about $200 or more here. It’s absolutely unattainable. Thus why watch this video unless your a masochist. If you’re a millionaire or won the Lottery watch otherwise turn on your TV and enjoy the latest Netflix or Amazon Prime show.

[@snakeeyes9246]

When it comes out, review the Audi E-tron GT, which is technically the Taycan GTS. Then compare it with the Taycan 4S. They're not rivals by the way.

A huge part of the drag coefficent difference is actually the tire width.

[@RCintheShadows]

And probably the range difference too

[@matmul4850]

Never knew or thought about that. Thanks 👍

[@Precisiongaming23]

On the taycan the electric fuel door means the side vent is closed regardless of which model you have- without the fuel door the real vent collects many stones and dirt! I think the co-efficient will be minimal but tires definitely will make that difference

[@DuvJones]

Meet every single Taycan review, it's like a contractual thing to do Launch Control and every single person that does it is... unprepared for the immediacy of it. This is clearly a car where, if you want power and speed while deciding it's a good idea to put your foot to the floor... it just says "Here you go, all the speed I can muster." No song and dance, no waiting for the engine/turbo to spool up, no overheat limit to how many times you can do it, no warning, no problems (well till you find trouble). All the power, at the push of the pedal, till you are under 5% battery charge....

[@Xenon0000000000001]

This is the nicest comment I’ve read all week ❤️❤️

[@ArgonixX]

The difference between using Apple music on the iphone and the built-in app is that the first one depletes my monthly data volume and the latter one uses thy Taycans built-in 4G . So it can make sense depending on your cell phone monthly data volume.

[@NathanThrower]

You said they were the standard brakes but are they the Tungsten coated rotors?

[@PigglyWigglyDeluxe]

Yes.

[@canyonaro]

Yes the white calipers are the PSCB brakes. The red calipers on the 4S are the regular steel brakes. I watched a Cayenne review that said the PSCBs are $11k to replace and ceramics $32k(!!!). But the PSCBs last 30% longer and the car uses a lot of regen so you might get 100k miles out of them. The ceramics will last basically forever on a Taycan but if you crack one it's a world of pain.

[@canyonaro]

It drives like a boat compared to the Taycan but it does have a lot more space. I'm a big fan of hybrids in general but from a maintenance/cost of ownership standpoint they're the worst if all worlds. Porsche has had problems with engine seals from engines that aren't run enough. So if you buy one, remember to drive it like you stole it to keep that engine healthy. 😉

[@snakeeyes9246]

I'd probably get the 4S or wait for the Audi E-tron GT to come out, which is essentially a Taycan GTS.

[@tim-robinthalmann3826]

The main difference in the drag coefficient between the Turbo and the Turbo S comes from the different tire sizes not from the vents you guys pointed out. Although they definitely still contribute a little bit.

[@Henrikkove]

Taycan Turbo comes with PSCB brakes, and it cannot be compared to regular steel brakes. They are made of steel brakes, but coated with a thin layer of tungsten carbide. "Engineering Explained" have made a video about it. Why the callipers are white is because these brakes makes around 95% less brake dust than regular steel brakes. If you chose to have electric charging port on either 4S, Turbo or Turbo S, you will loose the air-vent underneath the port. It may have something to to with the electric motor to the port. You cannot adjust the volume with two fingers over the "field", but you can adjust it if you take from the field up and down in the same motion.

[@thomasyoung7286]

@ 12:57 "Bottoms at the button" You're welcome, Yuri

[@manuelerrazuriz469]

In the Turbo the breaks are not just steel. They are Surface Coated Brakes (PSCB) which are fairly better than just steel discs. Engineering Explained covered them in a video.

[@texastriguy]

I wish to correct a technical error gentlemen: The front motor on ALL Taycan variants is identical. On the Turbo S, there is a more powerful INVERTER that makes the difference. EV's are new to everyone, so its an understandable mistake. And its also a subtle one - net, yes ...the front axle is indeed getting more power. But mechanically its the inverter delivering the watts that is better, not the actual motor itself.

[@davidli9887]

The brakes on the turbo is a new tungsten costed rosters designed by Porsche. Engineer explained did a video explaining it.

[@TheStraightPipes]

Ah I missed that

[@shanemurrish6821]

The front fender vents are not different between the Turbo and the Turbo S. The Turbo S is missing the vents because of the electric charging port. All Taycans with the regular charging port have vented fenders

Error @ 4:36. The Turbo doesn't have steel brakes, it has PSCB's (Porsche Surface Coated Brakes). The coating is Tungsten Carbide. They resist fade and produce very little brake dust just like ceramic brakes but they are much cheaper.

I read somewhere that the cars with the powered charging doors get the closed vents. Might be that but not sure. Some wiring/parts might be going through that space when you have the sliding power door.

[@Jackthesavage]

The only thing? I can’t name one thing that I prefer about the Tesla over the Taycan

[@William93ITA]

Actually the Turbo doesn't have regular steel brakes but PSCBs (Porsche Surface Coated Brakes, hence the white calipers) and it's a unique technology developed by Porsche where the steel rotors have a 100 microns thickness coating of Tungsten Carbide on the surface that makes these brakes behaving better at high temperatures compared to regular steel with a huge reduction in brake dust at a third of the price of carbon ceramics

[@richardanderson9855]

Much love from Honduras

[@bishop131313]

Guys, at 5:55 you talk about the „fake“ brake vents on the turbo s. Donˋt you think this is due to the material of the brakes?! The ceramic needs not that much cooling, in fact, you want it to warm up faster because ceramic brakes literally do nothing when cold and overheating is virtually not a problem of ceramic, whereas with steel, itˋs just vice versa. If so, the turbo should have those „fake“ vents if you option for ceramic brakes. Can anyone confirm this?

Actually the brakes on the turbo is porsche's PSCB, tungsten coated steel brakes, a little different to normal steel brakes.

[@alexperry06]

[@seanx4681]

@@alexperry06 The steel rotor has a thin coating of very hard material (in this case tungsten carbide). This improves fade performance and reduces brake dust (which is why porsche decided to use white calipers for PSCB brake systems). Very high friction coefficient levels would make the braking feeling quite different when comparing standard steel brakes to PSCB. Wonder if Yuri and Jacob could feel the difference on pretty much the same vehicle with different braking systems!
