I don't think Porsche can successfully migrate to NACS until they change the location of the charging port to the Tesla position of left rear corner or possibly the front right corner. I remember struggling to get the relatively long EA cable to the front fender port on my Taycan CT without it...

I agree that neither the EQS Sedan nor the BMW iX are going to win any beauty contests. But IMHO there is nothing wrong with the way the EQS SUV looks. "Personalized" may have been the wrong choice of words since I have not done anything to change the outward appearance of the car. So far my...

I sold off the last of my Taycan CT accessories so I don't have much reason to hang around the Taycan forum. All of the stuff went to forum members except the PMC+ since the forum members are better informed than eBay buyers. I have been busy personalizing my MB EQS SUV and posting the results...

That's why I intend to get a different one every year or two for the few years I have left.

Thanks for reminding me about the back up camera that is put to shame by the one in the EQS. Actually, I wasn't worried about the Taycan burning down the garage. I should have been more precise and called out the ill-designed PMC+.

My Taycan CT has been gone for a week. Sure, I miss the handling in the Taycan, but I feel more confident that I won't get stranded in the EQS 450 SUV. We experienced drama in the Taycan almost every time we took it on the road. Stuff like the screens going dark leaving us unable to turn on the...

Setting up the AC charging schedule at home is more intuitive in the EQS. Simply specify up to four time slots per day when NOT to charge. You can also specify a departure time like in the Taycan. Maybe MB follows this forum to learn from Taycan owners' experience. Another feature I like is that...

EPA range on EQS 450 4Matic SUV is 285 miles. 100% charge at home indicated 347 miles. You probably won't have to wait 8-10 years to get an SUV that can comfortably make that round trip.

I purchased a 5-seat version from dealer inventory. The mat in the cargo area is 43" long by 39" wide. The entire floor lifts up to expose a somewhat irregular shaped storage area. I did look at some EQS SUVs with the optional third row. They are more like the GLE with three rows. The EQS SUV is...

I am not going to defend MBs styling choices except to say that the EQS SUV looks better than the sedan. The temporary $7500 tax credit is compensation for the styling I gave up by trading the Taycan. I am discovering more useful features everyday. For example, I can connect to my WIFI at home...

Actually, I didn’t get lost. It’s almost 2:00 am and I needed more time to properly answer your question. Maybe tomorrow .

I agree with you that this post does not belong in the General Taycan Topics forum which is the reason I posted it in the Porsche Taycan Versus… forum. If you look at other threads in the PTV forum you will see that pretty much every one is about another brand EV.

I put a couple of hundred miles on a new EQS SUV since Saturday. The Taycan is definitely a better handling vehicle, but the EQS has a lot going for it. I had to give up the 800v architecture and the 2-speed transmission, but the MB does have two of my favorite features - air suspension and...

In the City vs Highway: paragraph you state "EVs add energy back to your battery when you hit the brakes." This is certainly true in the Taycan where regenerative and friction braking are blended. But in other EVs I don't believe that "hitting the brakes" actually charges the battery the way...

I think you may change your mind about the finish after a few months of ownership. The thing I hated most about my 2018 Model 3 was the way bird turds would ruin the clear coat. Before I traded the Tesla on the Taycan I used a Griot's Garage buffer and correcting cream to restore the finish so...

Former Tesla M3 owner here. I hated the rough ride and substandard paint job. Neither of these is an issue in the Taycan. I especially appreciate four standard features in my Taycan 4 Cross Turismo - the 800v architecture, the two-speed transmission, the blended friction/regen braking system...

How does the user interface compare with the Taycan?

No racing challenges at stop lights. But it’s not uncommon to get a thumbs up from strangers. I recall two in particular…. One guy pulls up along besides my driver side with dark tinted windows and rolls down his passenger window so I can see his thumbs up gesture. The other was a motorcyclist...

Maybe if you referenced one of the technical threads in the forum and compared what the members had to do without the benefit of LaTeX to express their thoughts others reading this thread would respond to your question.
