I think it’s because first uses a dog clutch and they can’t speed match the engagement while maintaining negative torque for decel.

Regarding the side changing, it’s possible the article I read was wrong or that I am misremembering then.

I can’t find the article now, but I’ve read DC is only on one side and which side depends on locale. The PCA article I linked earlier talks about DC only on the left side, but this likely referring to US cars and that’s the same side as the Taycan.

No. The Macan is just a single speed gearbox. The two stage refers to the reduction happening through two gear sets. It’s reduced once and then a common shaft goes to another gear set to reduce again.

Yes. From PCA article last month: https://www.pca.org/news/porsche-electric-macan-details

I wonder what an electric nine hundred onety-one will look like.

I’m a big fan of the seven hundred and eighteen boxter in cayman.

I watch carwow on YouTube. Does that count?

It’s worth noting @Administrator asked the forum a while back what we’d prefer to see in terms of an expanded Porsche EV forum. I voted to keep it all together so I didn’t need different logins. It looks like they solved it by separating it and allowing the same login.

@Avantgarde I have no more interest in your opinion on the matter. Think what you want. Makes no difference to me.

It’s the Taycan Forum and we don’t know how to stay on topic.

I tried that. The dealer just does it so much better.

I’m heading to the dealer for a blow job later. You know, because my tires are low on air.

A quick google search will fix that for you Edit: not on a work computer

Ah, good point…

I have a 2016 Macan S and a 2021 Taycan 4S. Between those two, I pretty much never drive the Macan unless there’s some utility for it that the Taycan can’t meet. Either because I need the extra cargo space, a work trip that I take my personal vehicle on, one of the other cars is in the shop, or...

I don't think we should confuse marketing with engineering. There was also talk about efficiency increases due to being able to disengage the rear motor. I thought that was silly because the friction losses are minimal and they could do the same with a clutch and single speed gearbox if they...

I don't understand what you mean by "second gear" in high 9s as I was asking for a single gear ratio scenario and there would not be a "second gear". I'll proceed under the assumption you meant a single gear. Now we have a concrete number to work with. I'm perfectly happy talking about it...

I don’t know if I have enough information. If I were to actually want to evaluate this, I’d want to look at things the way I described in an earlier post, plus actual speed profiles.
