#Porsche #porschetaycan
I don’t use the word that often, but that base model is simply gorgeous.
Yet another analytical review, no hype just in depth detail. Keep up the good work, it’s much appreciated.
Thomas with your outfit matching the Taycan you could be a Porsche salesman !
hehe =)
Are you indicating that would be an upgrade work-wise? 😂
It’s a car I could never afford but it’s a stunning peace of German engineering
in 15 years it will sell for around $40-60k, and still have plenty of life left
@@awhs5435 For me 40-60k is still a lot of money to be honest..
piece
@@ComteDeGracey
This happens all the time upon my device.I hate word correction
@@awhs5435what? In 15 years it will be $10K and only for the parts lmao. This will be $50K in just 3-4 years.
Your Porsche reviews are always special ✨ thanks
Every time i wait for you to say 4k full screen full length 😂 i love it man!! Keep it up..
same
Oh wow, that Turbo GT has an absolutely stunning colour
Love the detail. Thanks so much.
Really enjoying the content on the channel well done everyone 👍👍👍
I swear, this facelift looks older than the pre-facelift. It's a reverse facelift.
Agree. I have a theory that the .1 Porsches always look better than the .2 Porsches.
@@jonathan_careless I think it's the headlights. They look sort of 2004ish. Reminds me of the first panamera. What do you think?
It's a face-slide.
I think it looks better than older design. I'm not a fan of round-ish headlights and black vertical inlets stretching from headlights downwards remind me of "tears" and the whole face seems like a "crying" face to me. New design without those vertical black inlets is much better imho.
Losing the crying eye crud look was an improvement, imo. The problem is it looks more like the new Tesla Model 3. Still looks great though.
That blue is absolutely stunning.
Nice.
When are you getting Porsche Macan EV for full driving review?
I would also like to know!
The common term for ischeal tuberosity is "sit bones". :) I'm always impressed by your extensive English vocab!
Great video, great insights! Just wanted to drop that your whole attitude and way of presentation are magnitudes better than CarManiac. Both of you are German Car TH-camrs, you have just way more class. Thanks for that!
highly appreciate! Feel free to recommend our channel :)
This car has an amazing Thomas-blue! 🤩

looks good... very good looking. I like
Thomas here showing all men what "winning in life" looks like. 😊
Love the proper medical terminology ❤
Great video! And it's really nice to see a pepita cloth option that's not tied to a super-premium edition.
cheers m8 !
Looks like extended 911. Beautiful car!!
The most sound came from the front and suspension....so what does the doublelayered Windows do?
Nice review Thomas. The rear Porsche logo in Glacier Iceblue is still a cost option, it’s not standard on the base model.
Thanks 🙏
Crap option list
Hi Thomas. What a great, great car. Hey, please remember to include some affordable Carsten for us who live in overly taxed countries like DK. Keep up. Your videos are still among the very best in biz. Much love and respect from Peter Rahbek in DK
thanks so much! Please recommend our channel :-)
yeah always trying to do that whenever possible!
"Standard" Turbo as a Cross Tourismo for me😍
For sit bones activation, you need a proper bike seat, maybe a new short stubby ?
Hope the reliability of those cars are also improved as I heard from several owners that they spent more time in replacement cars rather than in their Taycans 🙏
RWD is best Taycan. Best range, fun to drive because RWD and not insane in price.
I just wonder what McMaster will say about this 🤣. Also, the depreciation must make any owner cry.
Thanks
Anyone thinking of buying a new Taycan needs to give their head a wobble. 😏💸
Gorgeous car ❤
Doctor Thomas !
Hi Thomas
I am between this taycan base model and the new macan ev turbo, and for sure the macan can be loaded with more options and still same price or even less
My only worry from the taycan is the ground clearance, it is very low
What do you think?
Never driven an EV macan, but an ID4 GTX and Audi etron 55...in EV SUVs my wife got moving sick as passenger due to heavy weight and you can feel the moving due to Mass inertia at any braking or corner.
This was not the case in ID7 or BMW i4...much lower, although also very heavy...less movement for the passenger.
Simply due to this, I would never touch a SUV EV. The Crosstourismo of the Taycan most likely offers enough Space for the daily transport.
Or if available in your market...the ID7 Tourer is the much better choice...at least for me ;-)
Great review, nice colour coordination! Straight to the top of the EV table again. The only issue in the UK is the depreciation on the car, the tax allowances in particular really upset the used market. The positive is it’s a fantastic second hand buy like my Cross Turismo ex demonstrator where Porsche lost £50,000 in 3 months and 500 miles.
Active Ride is a £6,000 option if not standard and I definitely wouldn’t pay that given how good the air suspension is.
Be aware of the smartphone charger. Not only is it difficult to access the phone gets incredibly hot in a short space of time as it’s enclosed. My iPhone turned off and burned my hand…. I only use the usb charger now. Porsche should have fixed this in the update.
Very good points
@16:01 Better than the Panamera or just the best Taycan?
I hope they made the interior larger, in the first gen if I was comfortable in the drivers seat, NO ONE could sit behind me, making it a 3 seat vehicle.
Whey do they depreciTE? Is it about the potential cost of a replacing battery? How much? 50.000€?
Station wagon is best version. :)
Multiple times more space in a car the same size.
Superman both Porsche :)))
New cars can still be beautiful...Wow.
Ill be back watching this review in 3 years, hopefully buying a tastefully modded cpo one for half the msrp
Ooooo ... Thomas Blue 🤪.
awesome review and would really like to get this car! one question: 16:54 what is the color of the car you are pointing at?
Cheers! Got all colors in video description / comment in the data section :)
@@autogefuehl ah, thanks a lot!
The looks are gorgeous. Skip to 4:00 to see how beautiful she is ( just kidding Thomas! ) Seriously.... Great review. Porsche has steped up and really improved the Taycan. I am going to consider the Taycan as my first EV now.
Cheers m8 😎
Nice! For me its to expensive and to fast, but my son wants to have one!
Best Taycan would be a Sport Turismo for me. Need room for the doggos.
sadly strays even further from the original concept car, but somehow they managed to still make it look so good that its already one of the best looking cars i know on first sight.
The original concept car being an electric sedan. How is it straying from that?
Evolving not straying - the concept car original was assume 😁
Thomas have a question..what is it with Seat now...one video you have told that they wont make it anymore, and than i read last time how VW will keep making it...thank you for answering if you will 😅
From what I've heard, in the future Seat will be replaced by Cupra
@@yissibiiyte yes but Ceo of Seat said that they will continue bcs the company is 70 years old and would be ashame to shut it down...
@@yissibiiyte That originally was the plan, but recently it does sound like they've had a bit of a u-turn and will release EVs
SEAT is going to become the budget brand in the VAG portfolio going forwards.
Outfit looks good and the car aswell
cheers m8! Please recommend our channel :-)
The driving mode button seems of lesser quality than the multimode one I have on the new Austral. Porsche used to build some really high quality cars, but the rest are catching up and Porsche doesn't seem to go up except in terms of pricing.
Can you specify seat ventilation and massage with the cloth seats?
Love the outfit matches the car😂😂
thanks so much! Please recommend our channel :-)
4:01 Thomas, you know what this means?! 🤑😅
Can't wait to get the Taycan in 1 year for 50.000€
Oak Green RWD Taycan Sport Turismo with the two tone cloth seats.
Really struggling to get on board with these cars, now. Picked up my car from the main dealer last week after a service and the place was just full of dullness with just a sprinkling of sports cars. Maybe if I was 30 years younger I'd have more enthusiasm.
Porsche Taycan front face is no longer ugly.
Wow the newest model is the best. Never would have thought
Nice matching 😂color combo
Does rapid charging reduce battery life?
Yes
Fastest drop in value in the world!
That award goes to the EQS. Never seen anything like it. It loses over 50k after 6 months
@@Twin.motors nothing new...this was the case for any luxury car...like A8, 7th Series...etc....as you soon you press the start engine button...50k lost.
A car was and is the easiest way to burn money...and a Luxury car is even better doing it ;-)
By the way...my Passat GTE was at 70k Listprice...bought it for 50% after 13k km...now after 4 years and 45k km a dealer offered 19k €...51k lost for a just "normal" car...as said nothing special to any car.
Avoid any car, if you want to keep your money.😅
I really want this but can't afford it.
Hey Thomas why did Porsche cancel out the Porsche Panamera Gran Turismo R Estate version of the Panamera n yet it was so good n versatile than the electric estate of the Taycan
because they didnt sell enough they say
Awesome vehicle, very impressive
Question: Do you request blue cars to review or do they just know you really like blue?
Both - hehe
@@autogefuehl then I wish you more Thomas Blue in the future
🙏🙏
If you want it always buy used it have 60% discount, just look for the previous model it's a disposable ev car from 100k new to 2 y/o 40k
fun fact!! Xiaomi SU7 EV solded iin 90000 exemplare in 24 hours while Taycan last year sold around 43000
fun fact!!! 40% of Xiaomi SU7 EV buyers wanted to cancel their orders a week later when the many problems of the car became known but Xiaomi did not accept the cancellations.
@@ralfulrich6254 who sayed that to you?? Serpentza and China observer dumb channels!? where is problem if they have warranty several years?? let Xiaomi fix it on own expense!! fackn Tesla dont want to replace dead battery in warranty time if car was on rain
time for 1.ooo.ooo subs!👍👍👍
Did you say the RWD only does 500km @ 100kmh? That is quite poor efficiency at that low speed. I would have expected 97kwh battery to do around 600 when driving that slow.
If I had 97kwh battery, I would be getting 612kms @ 130-140. And around 750kms @ only 100.
Must be the huge tires.
I can believe she sat on the car with a jeans that especially unacceptable in Germany. 😢
The infotainment menus at @8:30 are really disgracefully laggy for a 2024 car. It looks like it takes most of a second to open the Comfort menu.
Where is Brian? Is he still testing cars for Autogefühl?
I wish, at this moment, however he is struggling with unforeseen health issues and we hope that he can be back at some point again
Missing Brian too, I hope we can see him again soon.
I love it but unfortunately I don't have enough money
why the bumpers are plastic? at first release i remember only the base models were plastic? now all of them got plastic? as a car journalist, you should mention this and any other cost cutting things. we need to roast more car manufactures
will pick the panamera over this anydays
Did I just hear a giggle?
Fabulous car - no doubt. But the depreciation is scary. A neighbour has one and his story is completely off putting.
This would be perfect with a 450 hp 6cyl
Nice 👍
Unfortunately it looks like you cannot get alcantara steering wheel without that stupid sport chrono stopwatch ward.
Pricing is absurd
Porsche always ends up depreciation almost immediately with some models because of this

Thommezz blue at last 😊
💙 Leah picked the Thomas blue 💍 Mmmmmmmm
by the time i need a new car this car would have depreciated enough where it would be in the price range i would hope it would I hope would be around 70k
Looked better pre facelift.
Head lights look worse than before.
Without a doubt the best EV on the market
A shame it's much smaller, has less range, slower to 100, lower top speed and lower efficiency than a model S.
But the badge is nice and the badge will sell many of these things.
@@Twin.motors much smaller? They're almost the exact same size. And no the Plaid is NOT quicker 0-60. Don't tell me you still believe Tesla's lying claims that were disproven years ago.
And most importantly, you can't compare a Tesla to something that actually has an interior.
@@yissibiiyte have you been in a Taycan? they're tiny. Also there are so many videos of the Plaid beating any Porsche on TH-cam.. why try to say otherwise ?
A base Taycan probably won't have heated seats, to get a Taycan to even match a Model S interior you probably need an extra 20k in options.
They serve different purposes but as EVs, the Model S is superior. As a sports car I'm sure the 200kg heavier Taycan is better.
@@Twin.motors you do realise the Turbo GT hasn't been released yet? That does have a faster 0-60 than the Plaid and probably quarter mile too, but we shall see.
And the very base Taycan has a better interior than a 140k Plaid for the simple fact it has physical controls and usable ergonomics. The Porsche has incomparably better suspension, better noise insulation, better material quality and overall quality.
And in the real world charging speed is more important than outright range, which the Porsche is also considerably better at.
@@yissibiiyte I've been driving EVs for 6 years. The ability to get in your car and pick any place on the map with zero thought is absolutely unbeatable for Tesla. There's barely any 300kw chargers around and if there are you need to be lucky for them to be working. I have the slowest, smallest range Model Y but I will absolutely love to "race" any long range EV by placing a random destination 2000km away and I guarantee I will win due to the supercharger availability and reliability. Tesla is the only brand on planet earth that actually cared enough for their customers to build a charging network, nobody else cares about their customers, they just want to milk you for money.
As for the Turbo GT.. I'm very curious about it, we'll see what it can do when it comes out and I hope it can be faster than the Plaid considering it'll be twice the price and riding on a chassis that's nearly 15 years newer.
This car kicks ischial tuberosity
👍
Noise insulation as an option - hmmm 😂
The Taycan depreciates to 50% in 3 seconds flat. 😂
Yeah read yesterday how one bought it for 120.000€ and tried to bring it and buy another car in the same Dealership and they said that the car is now Worth 40.000€ 😮😮🤬🤬🤬
I guess I can afford this in 3 years
All EVs
I guess we will all be driving a Taycan soon.
Mostly because thenold taycan has problems. Only time will tell how reliable this one is.
130,000 euros for the base model? Ouch.
Correct pronunciation = Ish-EE-EL Tuber-os-ity. :) like sshhhh. Often shortened in medicine to Sitz bones.
Sitz bones for real? 😂
@autogefuehl - Yes, they are the sitting bones, therefore the sitz bones. It's where the term sitz bath comes from, which is basically a large bowl full of warm water you sit in. Only your bottom and hips are in the water, usually with bath salts. It's to relive pain and discomfort in your perineal region (aka taint) and anal sphincter due to various conditions.
And I though this was a car review. I'm learning all kinds of things.
Hello Thomas. Help me understand EVs please. Confused.
If the batteries get weaker in 3-4 years but are too expensive to replace, are EVs therefore disposable? Over hundred grand euro and in 5 years the batteries need changing?
There are 10 yo Teslas on the road with battery degradation of less than 5%. Batteries getting weaker is not much of a thing to worry about at all.
€130k 😂 I mean better than that new electric 5 series but still an absurd pricing, especially absurd for the range it offers
And lack of charging network.
@@Twin.motorsfake news. it can use all charging networks.....
range is good though. Some of the best on market...
@@CyAn-S yes it can. But it cannot plan anything on its gps, you need to do all the planning, which results in a horrific user experience. If you've driven EVs you'd know how bad that is and it's pushed people away from EV adoption
@@CyAn-S just don't charge it more than twice in a 24hr period as you'll get locked out of fast charging like some users reported. Very unusual to see when... The competition can supercharger as many times as you want
Porsche got rid of the little fantasy that made it different. the fine stretch eye lids which came down to the bumper and made it different from all other conservative porsche design
There is something wrong with the back of that car for me, sport turismo looks better.
