I have a Turbo but not seeing any differences that would make a Turbo S different in terms of Range. Turbo S actually weighs less: 5,121 lb. vs. 5,132 lb. for Turbo per my printed brochure. The only way I can see Range impacted from one to another would be Wheels and Tires. This EPA range...
I have watched a few of his and the attitude is always that you "do not need this", which is not helpful. You think he is going to do an in depth review of options with pros/cons, but the answer is always the same, you do not need the higher options. For example, he talks you out of optioning a...
I just saw this today. There is more to it. The recall states that the issue has to be confirmed by the dealer and does not mean that every car in the 1,300 impacted has this. Doug DeMuro keeps driving his and posting many videos about it so his must be fine.
There are several factors that play into high valuation of any car that we (my wife and I) have owned in the past and decided to sell with market not being a factor in any single instance.
- We always bought new with thoughtful close to no compromise builds for our needs
- We invest in paint...
Very valid point on depreciation which can bounce back due to unexpected demand. We never expected our 2016 Macan Turbo to keep its value but it was sought after by multiple buyers given its 3.6L engine and condition and we let it go for 30% over best market comparable, and it was CPO'd for 3...
@bdy0627, I am not seeing this statement to be totally true:
" It sounds like the Taycan definitely drives better than the Macan, which is what I was also wondering. I figured as much but wasn't sure. I thought a GTS Macan might be close but it sounds like it really isn't, though it's not like...
I have a Taycan, Macan, and a Cayenne with each having their purpose.
Taycan is for daily duty just for myself with tall teenagers no problem to run around.
Macan is wife's car and she uses it as daily and uses trunk for gardening needs. However, rear seat room is tight, so I would not...
What a review.
- Cross shopped Taycan by sitting in it at the dealership then went into the arms of the other car.
- Other car does not have Android Auto still
- Other car is not user friendly when using HomeLink
- Other car designed in San Fran but cannot handle its speed bumps and steep...
My dealer [not on the list of dealers in the letter, but a nearby Cincinnati dealer is] is crying an ocean having a hard time selling Taycans after making major investments and space swapping to take away from the money growing on lifts servicing ICE models. I certainly benefit a great deal from...
Soft close doors was one feature that I remember on the Panamera loaner that was more luxurious.
I am not sure why they could not make that fit into the doors that seem to have a lot of room.
Other than that, everything else Panamera luxury feels old, but on the Taycan additional leather options...
Toyota went ahead and said, not delaying that Macan EV bumper headlights look on our SUVs.
My wife thought she would be in a second year of production Macan EV by now, but no. She went with the 2024 GTS, and there is nothing Roar Pedal mod can do to fool the driver into direct throttle...
My understanding that the range reporting is dynamic, so the more you drive, typically it shows a higher value overtime from new until it settles. I have driven in the city for the first 2,000 miles and charging at home at 11kW about once a week, and I am showing about 230 miles when charged at...
Another great post on the differences by @whitex between the two. I have never driven a Tesla, so I do not know what I may be missing. OP basically trying to figure out if Tesla does this, how can you do it in the Taycan. One thing I am not seeing more of or actually very few is Tesla Model S...
If I can be simple and direct, we buy Taycans for the way it drives first, as we are the drivers, and for the looks as a close second, as it turns heads, and everything else does not matter. I have never driven a Tesla, so only know about superior things you mention from reading and hearing...
How about $50K off now in lease discounts with a curious comparison to the Taycan... " for those who love to shop in bulk but maybe don't have six figures to burn on a Porsche Taycan by another name"...
Looks are subjective, but I can tell you that I get stares all the time, because the way it looks, meaning unique, and not because it is relatively new or it is an EV. Other EVs all look boring, including a few Lucids and i7 barges in the area, and now looking at many pictures of i5, who likes...
The OP's topic is would we see a Taycan price drop given heated competition from other EV makers such as Tesla, Rivian, and Lucid if I may add, as all I see are these almost daily feeds about price decreases and building up inventory and amped up negativity about EVs in general, and then some...
