By EU law, all data must be stored and preserved in European or US data centers. Again, all of these cars would go through EU insepctions, like all cars. And all of them would abide by EU regulations, like all cars, and all devices sold in EU

Again, look at Huawei. The consequence is being banned from the global market. Huawei is not selling products in EU & US anymore.

100% false :) Your iphone is DESIGNED by a US company; and manufactured 100% in China or India, depending on model.

1. They absolutely do not replace the whole battery. Just defective modules. I am already on my 2nd case of this. 2. All chinese cars that make it to European market go through very rigorous testing, same as german cars. I am not worried about any malware or whatever :) Need I remind you, most...

None, as I am not changing cars like socks. Will run this one until 2028 the least. No need to replace it, as it wasn't "an investment", and it works just fine. Would it be better without a battery recall every few months and an infotainment system faster than a 90 year old grandpa with...

These videos are not for us, current Taycan owners. They are for future taycan owners, and it sends the message well: "Stay away from this shit show" Porsche has a massive reliability issue with the taycan, that is very visible to potential buyers. And they don't seem to care enough to address it.

You are all discussing about the “now”. Porsche and German automakers are very concerned with the “now”; and the current buyers. Chinese automakers are very concerned with the future, and the future car drivers and buyers. And that shows in the final product. Chinese are developing EVs with...

Market saturation would be my guess, many people already having an EV But a confirmed thing is also that some EU countries were opposed to the tariffs, among which was Belgium also as far as I remember, one of which, Norway, went as far as to say they will actively ignore the tariffs and...

This will likely get worse, with BYD building plants in Hungary & Poland; SAIC is going to France, Chery to Spain, Leapmotor to Poland; and more to follow. And all of these are also going to South America. Chinese have proven that they can get to production within 1 year, over and over again...

To be fair, they are coming out with a road legal version also, and they did test that one also, but no numbers published, so likely not so impressive. In the end, all marketing, it is listed as the 4th fastest prototype officially, definitely not as a 4 door sedan. The road legal version has...

You mean that a 230.000 chf car, that as soon as you drive it out of the dealership is valued at 90.000 isn't worth 230.000 in people's eyes? Who would have thought ? Or the fact that a car with 4 battery recalls a year has no plan for battery warranty beyond the 8 years mandated by EU, also...

Will add that Porsche is somehow dreaming that regulations won't adjust. But those are dreams. They were forced to launch the new GT3 early due to new regulations from 2025, that wouldn't have allowed the car to be released. Chinese automakers are coming to EU; and east Europe is supporting...

It's less about that, and more about making compelling products. So Porsche is doubling down on what compelling products they can make. But that is a temporary measure; new buyers will find it harder to justify a 500hp "sport" 911 for 300k; when a 30k KIA / BYD EV can outmaneuver it and...

As other chinese brands branch out of china in 2025 and 2026, I suspect that top 10 will only be chinese cars. As that's where innovation will happen, fueled by economy of scale, state subsidies and sheer sale volume and amount of money spent on invocation. Right now there's 12/20 chinese brands...

They won't make a tri motor, as they didn't in the taycan GT; a car costing close to 300.000 in some markets. 718 EV will have single motor, and maybe top of the line a dual motor. Also, 300hp in a EV is a joke, much less in a 718. The Macan EV base starts at 402hp and its 75.000. 718 base...

Is it though? To me growing up Porsche logo ment: the affordable understated performance. Now? Affordable not. Most EV around 100.000 can equal taycan's numbers. Hell, chinese ones below 40.000 can. The engineer that started the "active ride" thing at porsche is with BYD now, and many others...

Porsche owners don't have to worry about that. Our PCM software and app barely work as is. Turning them off completely won't even be a big downgrade.

So if a specific car type goes to the service shop 12 times a year, on average, for every one of them on the road, you are saying insurance companies will just pay it out, no worries, they won't even care, do full replacement of batteries 2-3 times a year, and not increase premiums for that car...

It's been rated least reliable car in UK, switzerland and EU for 2 years staright. :) Facts usually beat anecdotal evidence Some insurance companies refuse to insure it because of UN-reliable it is; while other insurers just put insane premiums on insuring taycans Somebody just posted about...

I guess taycan is no longer a porsche / included in those satistics
