I have watched a number of How To videos on setting up the Taycan and have to say this is an excellent whistle stop tour without going into the greatest detail. Well done.

This was useful. I'll be renting a Taycan (via the Porsche Drive program) and I wanted to be up-to-speed before the rental. Thanks!

Nicely done. I bought a 2020 Taycan that was delivered during COVID. I just signed the paper and left, then had to figure out all that on my own- lots of troubles! GREAT learning video. I wish you would do one on bringing the battery temp up to temp on cold mornings . I think I know, but it doesn't work well so I may be doing it wrong.

I am picking up a Taycan 2021 only for one day, and you learned me everything I need to know, thanks a lot!

I’d like to see how the Porsche app works with the car. I’ve read somewhere it uses facial ID or fingerprint to open the vehicle, that’d be fantastic if it were the case.

Thanks - this was good. YouTube on the other hand sucks with an add every 2-3 minutes

Really good explanation and showing of Battery regeneration and active/lane keep!!

[rfeller]

Helpful and well made video. One correction : at 26.02, you state that this is the last time the battery was charged. This is not correct : the time indicated there is the time the battery will be charged (according to your settings, e.g. 80% or fully charged if that was selected).

does anyone know the exact color of this car?

The heat will charge your battery, ... yeah and doves will cry
