Ridealong: Porsche's Taycan Turbo Absolutely Redefines Speed and Acceleration
Review of the Taycan for those interested.
I believe that at least the top line version will have better performance than either Model S or 3P (note: performance is more than just acceleration).
From my perspective here are the pros:
1) Size: In between Model 3 and Model S. I would like more luxury than my 3, but don’t want a car as big as the S.
2) Performance.
3) Customizability - If it follows Porsche tradition, there may be thousands of different combinations and one can choose exactly the options desired.
4) I love the looks of the Mission E, so if they come close?
Cons:
1) If it follows Porsche tradition, the base model will be decontented and Porsche will bleed you on the options.
2) Probable lack of efficiency and therefore range.
3) No Supercharger
4) Probably way less tech, OTA...
5) Probably inferior autonomy.
In summary I would not choose over Tesla, but there are definitely some things I like.
