I got to test drive the Taycan Turbo at Porsche Bellevue, WA. Did anyone else got to test drive it?

Its amazing. Did not expect that. It closer to a 911 in driving experience than a panamera. In every way (luxury, sportiness, handling) in sits in between a 911 and panamera.

This is very close to what I want from an EV. I haven't bought any EV till now, but this got close. When I test drove a Tesla Model S and M3P, I liked the acceleration, but the driving experience was not good because tesla did not get the seating, steering, suspension and chassis correct. Porsche got all of them correct, and has better design (especially the interior). But it falls short in terms of range and number of charging stations.

The steering and chassis feedback is much better than Panamera but not as good as the 911. It is a bit difficult to get it to slide compared to my Boxster. And we can feel its weight around corners.

I am still thinking of buying this to be used as a daily and to use it for fun drives, shorter than 200 miles.

Has anyone else test driven the Taycan?
