Is Porsche the future of luxury EVs?! 🔋

[atomhelios]

IMHO, probably one of the best looking EV cars on the market.

[roguedogx]

It's a nice improvement, but the price is something else.

Glad the range is now acceptable.

[Tzuau]

Is it me… or does it look like the front lights just don’t quite fit right? I mean I like them, but something about the angles, make them look like they were from a different car 🤔

[pjroberts]

Avoid 21-inch wheels as they are only equipped with summer tyres. For instance, if you live in the UK, you'll find that you can only drive the vehicle for 9 months of the year because it's extremely dangerous to drive on summer tyres under 7 degrees—a detail they often fail to mention.

Literally only one of the only EV's I'd consider buying if I ever won the lottery. Still look's stylish without being over the top and too futuristic looking 👌

[brightnight]

How about comparing to Lotus Emeya, Zeekr 001fr, Yangwang U9, Aion Hyper SSR, and Model S Plaid? Things getting interesting now

[akotten]

Didn’t do well quantifying the changes. “Charges faster, longer range, ” By how much??

[T-RIDER]

Will this deprecate more than the last model? 😂

[khasmir]

These cars depreciate faster than ice melts, just wait a few years and buy one 2nd hand at half the price

They dont offer one pedal drivning, because they want it to be a drivers car. Like Porsches are supposed to be. Another gain is the feeling of drivning the car, also as it should.. Just leave it as is, its MUCH better. If someone dont like it, its because they cant drive

If porsche really wants to beat every one in the game, they should use battery cells with over 450 wh/kg energy density, and they should manage to have a battery pack with atleast 400wh/kg in pack level energy density, CATL will massproduce it's automotive version semi solid state condensed battery early summer this year with over 450 wh/kg in cell energy density, 2025 porsche taycan turbo s weighs 2280 kg din which is 15 kg weight reduction and considering that more power and range and battery size is amazing but if they manage to have CATL semi solid state battery in their taycan line up they will have 400 kg weight saving from battery pack and they can reduce the weight of e drive units with another 80 kg from drive units, if they do this taycan turbo s will weigh 1800 kg din and a lot more range and performance i hope they will do what they should do to be the best

[dmomcilovic]

At this price, the Model S is a bargain

[strangerthanparadise]

Jump in new if you wanna lose money real quick

[JonathanLittle]

1 pedal driving, is not an up grade coming from an ICE vehicle... combustion drivers are more familiar with the sensation of coasting when you come off the accelerator. Actualy grateful Porsche is preserving that in their EV

[JayDee-bu]

Huge misstep by Porsche. The old ones aren't selling at all and I'm not sure these will fare much better.

[TheKingkingg]

Looks awesome, but hybrid version and hydrogen powered should be offered

[frankjames]

Did they fix their garbage infotainment system?

[errorblah]

Problem is, we know now if you buy a Taycan, it will immediately suffer enormous depreciation... the electric car fad is dying quick...
