    A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    His GT3 is a 2018, and while it does have a touch screen, it isn’t of the same vintage of the PCMs I have seen with the application icons. It doesn’t have the same icon type GUI and while it doesn’t have the functionality of the newer PCM design, his works reliably. Mine is very hit and miss...

    A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    As I said in my initial response to the question about experiences with Tesla and Taycan, my husband (who owns and loves his Porsche GT3, and yes, I know that the GT3 is an ICE car) convinced me to get a Taycan. I also had friends who had owned Porsches for a long time suggest that if I wanted...

    No gag, just my experience with both cars.

    A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    I also don’t quite understand your posting. I speak from experience with almost 4 years with a Tesla S. You sound quite insulting about Tesla owners, if I am understanding this. Oh well, I guess it takes all kinds.

    A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    In my experience, I wasn’t a beta tester with my Tesla. If there were issues, a SW release came out with all the release notes that fixed it within days. The Porsche people at the dealership keep telling me there isn’t a problem, that is until I sent them the link from the forum that describes...

    A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    Hi, I think you misunderstood my post. I LOVED my Tesla. My complaint is that the Taycan feels like I am a beta tester, with it not turning on sometimes, screens going blank, not coming up, CarPlay not connecting……….

    A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    Thanks for providing some perspective, in that this isn’t an endemic problem, although there are a lot of forum entries with experiences like mine. Perhaps people without issues don’t post because they are out having fun driving their Taycans. I would rather sell at this point, my confidence...

    A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    If it were only the German nav search bar I might think it was just quirky whimsy. I listed a bunch of other things as well, like no display screens at all, and I didn’t mention that at times it refuses to turn on at all, which I will mention now. I absolutely do have the wrong car, I expected...

    A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    You got that right! Porsche wouldn’t know a SW bug if it came up and bit them! The service manager at the dealership said to bring my car in so they could reload the SW. I asked why reloading buggy SW would fix the problem. Still waiting for an answer on that one. If Porsche doesn’t “get”...

    A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    I had a beloved 2018 Tesla Model S, and my hubby (who is a “car guy”) persuaded me to get a 2022 Taycan Cross Turismo. What a MISTAKE! I have had the Taycan for just over a month now, and completely regret going to the Porsche. I could argue that the Taycan doesn’t have Apple CarPlay either...
