The Porsche Taycan 4S is a 560HP, Long Range, Electric Super Sedan - One Take

[@TheSmokingTire]

Correction: The wheels on this car are the optional 20" Aero wheels, not the standard 19" Aero wheels. Of course, Porsche would have two different aero wheels options. They are equipped with Continental All-Season Eco tires.

[@Nord_Mann]

TheSmokingTire you sure Matt? The 21" don’t come in Michelins, but GoodYear F1 tires. Drove a Turbo this Tuesday with the Misson-E wheels and they where shod in GoodYears which are inferior to the Michelin PS4’s on my Taycan 4S. PS4S don’t come in the Taycan 275 section tires unfortunately, but the PS4’s do a great job. Never heard a squeal.

“The main benefit of this over the Turbo....” is that $60k saved goes a long ways towards buying a nice 911 to park next to it.

I think you might be overestimation the income of people who can afford Porsche’s. I’m sure theres plenty of potential customers planning to have the taycan turbo as an all rounder then being told by sales people that if they get the 4s instead for the weekly trips and family stuff they can have money left over to buy a proper stick shift weekend Porsche sports car. I’m sure there’s a lot of potential customers who love hearing that news.

That is the funny part. Alot of people would likely be shocked to learn that the 'fake' engine nose actually isn't. That this is the sound of this very motor, dialed up a ton. Also "Electronic Sports Sound" is an option on the 4S and Turbo (it's about $500 USD), not so much with the Turbo S which is part of the package.

[@RealRaynedance]

@@DuvJones I think what most people mean by "fake engine noise" is the fact that it's still a recording being played back through speakers rather than it coming out of the engine (or motor, in this case) at the time. Whether it's the engine or motor in the car is irrelevant in that case. I _THINK_ BMW is one of the few companies that gets specific enough to say that they play back the "best tones" of the engine through the speakers.

"This is the car that normal people are supposed to buy" about a $125k car. Los Angeles really is a different place than the rest of the country.

obviously these cars are very expensive. By "normal" I don't mean "Poor." I address the cost of these cars elsewhere in the video. But I can't dance around every single bit of phrase I use to make every single person feel better. By "normal," I mean it's the volume model within the range, and the kind of Porsche EV that will attract folks not looking specifically for a 700-horsepower nuclear weapon. A wealthy person might, for instance, buy a Taycan 4S for their spouse to use as a daily driver, even if the spouse is not particularly enthusiastic about cars. You would never want to hand a non-enthusiast, or a non-expert driver for that matter, the key to a Taycan Turbo S.

Why is it that the EPA majorly underestimates the Taycan's range, but majorly overestimates Tesla long range ranges?? They end up being similar but their EPA ratings are about 100miles apart.

[@kraenk12]

EPA is patriotic and loves to push Tesla.

[@sultanqasim]

Different rating methods. Tesla uses the average of 5 tests scheme, whereas Porsche used the simpler average of two tests multiplied by 0.7 standard. To get numbers roughly comparable with Tesla EPA ratings, divide the Taycan EPA range by 0.7.

[@pepstein]

The EPA rating is for the smaller battery pack. We don't yet know what the EPA rating is for this car.

[@nickch_80]

The space motor noise just suits it so perfectly. Fake ICE sounds would just be wrong

[@pepstein]

Thank you for the canyon carving experience! It's clear the car handles exceptionally well, and indeed there is little use for more power. It looks like Porsche has carved out a niche in the EV space where many others have failed, and that's awesome! I suspect the 203 mile EPA rating is for the smaller battery pack. And of course real world range will be reduced with larger wheels and/or grippier tires. So it's not as crazy as it looks, but it's still disappointing that they chose the easier but less accurate method for computing their EPA rating.

The sounds are perfect for an EV, it looks great on the move, I like the size, and it looks like you're really achieving a fun and sustainable flow with the car! The lack of regen on the accelerator as an option is disappointing, and I hope they come out with an even cheaper, slower "Taycan 4" or something because I don't see why 560 HP and 6 figures have to be the entry point into a high-quality driver's EV.

When the Taycan is getting its pdi done there’s a function that has to be done to bed in the brakes and it deactivates brake regen when lifting. It takes awhile for it to bed them in.

[@peazy3048]

I would hands down pick this up for $125k versus $110k for a Model S performance and this is coming from someone that owns a Model 3 performance. Curious, how does Porsche maintain power throughout the battery state of charge? Did Porsche comment on this? Is it the 800 volt system, cooling, software? I typically see full power from 100%-75% in my M3P then it slow gets a little less fast from 70%-20% then starts pulling more power under that. Mine is always fast regardless but pretty amazing that Porsche maintains full power from full to empty.

[@SegerGiesbers]

Peazy304 stays the same because 100% is actually 88% battery level.. Same level of regen in all 1-100% state of charge

You are on probably fairly narrow tyres (to help achieve the long km range) and i bet that car weighs a lot. fair play to Porsche to get it so manoeuverable, which shows, because you are asking a lot of a heavy car to tank it round the bends without squealing. you cant have the weight and the speed and the narrow tyres without the squeal unless porsche got their systems to cut-in and forcibly trim your speed on the corners. Fortunately they don't, so drivers are free to cover the whole range - 'not squeal, 'squeal', and then 'hedge'!!
