Definitely prefer this CrossTurismo than the regular. Looks like big hatch than a crossover which is good and Taycan design overall looks more fitting with this body style imo. Not to mention, it's more practical with full hatch at the back. Nice Porsche 👌🏼
I agree, the Cross Turismo especially in Cherry Metallic or Gentian Blue looks better than the regular Taycan. The Electrify America stations still need some improvement in the United States, it make a good second or third car though
For me, it would be the Cross Torismo over the sedan. Still looks very sporty. But with the animal-free interior, of course. Please Porsche, give us manual air vents. Having to use a touch screen simply to adjust the vents is a non-starter. Now, I'll just wait for Thomas to review the Porsche E-bikes. :)
The body shape looks a lot better than the Panamera, that's for sure. I have to say this though: I am not especially excited about the coming electro-car future. There is no such thing as unique character in terms of power delivery when it comes to an electric motor. In order to get max performance all cars will be 4wd. All vehicles will necessarily be big and heavy to fit all the batteries needed to have a decent driving range. And on and on it goes. Essentially, we are moving toward homogeneity in the automotive world, not toward more creativity. The exterior and interior design of cars will look different (somewhat) but underneath they'll all be just about the same and driving the cars will also likely be a very similar experience.
Hey guys, this was possibly the best intro ever on one of your videos so I wanted to commend you on that. I liked the getting out of the car saying hello bit particularly :-D Enjoy yourselves and stay safe!
Magnifique! In response to your question, I think that with Porsche's fine history in Rally racing, the history might continue with Porsche BEV's! Although range is still an issue. My question is: Can one get smaller wheels & higher-profile tires to help absorb the impacts of dirt-road/off-road operations?
I've been waiting to see a review on the Cross version, I was already sold on the design, but having seen your review I'm convinced I love it. Great to see the colour options on screen as well, the configurator never comes across properly. What was your favorite colour? I can see it being a big seller in the UK, my OPC is suggesting no cars until Sept at the earliest. I'd go for base CT4, good value really when you consider, air suspension , performance battery etc
Another channel showed the Cross Turismo in Cherry Red metallic, at this very location. That would be my favorite color 🤤 As always, great review! Calm, sympathetic, detailed -- absolutely the best car review channel on YT! 👍
@@autogefuehl Dear Thomas, i wait to see your reviews about recent Citroens and DS...I drive a DS4 mod.2012 . For years fan of French cars but i always admired the German quality and efficiency!!! Excellent products but a bit expensive for my wallet...Admirer of your videos!
No way, sedans are dying in the US. I think Porsche made this "Outback" version of the Taycan with the wheel arch cladding specifically with the US in mind so American consumers will think it is a crossover even though it is obviously a station wagon. I predict US sales will also favor the Cross Turismo over the sedan.
The base Taycan Cross Turismo is THE sports car to own. $100k in base and able to be sporty and an estate wagon. Better than the Audi RS Avant, less expensive, faster and no emissions. Genius!!!
I find 270mi range pretty reliable with freeway speeds and approximate 60-65F temps with 20” heels on my Taycan 4S. I think it’s an excellent road trip EV because of its very fast charging. I also have ordered the roof rack and box. The handling is where the comparison will end with other EVs in my opinion.
Never thought there would ever be a sort of crossover hatchback (and electrical) beneath a Porsche badge... Anyway,looks practical,speaking frankly, so kudos 👌🏻
Oh, that frozen berry is a wonderful colour. I’ve been seeing more interesting colours and wider ranging colour options in the last year, hopefully this marks the beginning of the end for manufacturers only offering 3/5 colours. I miss when brochures had 15-30 different paint options!
So much smarter than the regular Taycan. Audi needs to do the same with their new e-tron GT. The estates/wagons will sell very well. Thanks Thomas for another great video. Greetings from Australia.
This and the Top Gear review of it (excellent check it out) are the only reviews I consider worthy and I am a Porsche customer trying to convince myself of this.
First Taycan video I see that does a really good job at highlighting differences between the different models and colors. Great job as usual Thomas. I’m still really torn between the Panamera Sport Turismo and the Taycan Cross Turismo, but if I go Taycan, the bike carrier and off road package would be a must!
Thanks for the video Thomas. I think a hatch (estate) is so much more practical for anyone with a family than the sedan that it will quickly outsell it in most markets. I would have one in mamaba green...but will all the options why aren't the black gloss wheel arch trims available unless you go for a Turbo S?...the 4 S is probably much more affordable and has a bigger range...but I want those gloss black trims please!! 👍🏻😎 This is the first EV that has got my mouth watering.
As an owner of both the Tesla Model Y and the Taycan 4S across Turismo, I’d take the Taycans accurate range which ends up being more functional range over the Teslas over exaggerated range any day!
Geez complaining about that touch screen clima control… I swear my Panamera is set to 22C and I haven’t changed it for 3 years, only when someone in the carwash moves the vents or to turn on the heated / vent seats. That’s like the Piranhas in our childhood turned less of a problem later on…
Excellent review! The Thomas performance drift lounge was in full effect ⚠️🚧‼️ In the USA my guess is that the sportier ‘off-roadische’ version of the Cross Turismo will be most popular. The sedan is very beautiful though in the special Neptune blue. The greater headroom and adventure options of the Cross Turismo also look very good! 🏁
Watching from the US, and I can personally say, this Taycan Cross Turismo (especially the Turbo S) would be the only EV if I was in the market. I do think that Rivian is extremely interesting and unique, as well as that Lucid offering, but for a vehicle that can do pretty much everything, be as fast and agile as it is, AND coming from Porsche....it's really a no-brainer. I would like if they offered an Exclusive Manufaktur interior option though, plenty of interesting Paint to Sample offerings, but most would be limited to running a black interior if you went with one, so an Exclusive Manufaktur interior option would go a long way.
I have yet to see the Cross Turismo in the US but it looks like a huge improvement over the Taycan, which are showing up in the usual places. If you have the charging infrastructure at your home/office, it's a no brainer to get this over the Panamera wagon. Re the price point, I was riding my bike up the Merritt Parkway in CT last week next to a Mustang Mach E in electric blue. Very cool car at 1/4 the price. Interesting times for personal transport.
I notice that the door handles pop out when you unlock the car with the key fob. What happens to the door handles once you get inside the car and close the door? Do they stay extended? Do they fold back in when the car is turned on, and extend again when the car is turned off?
Beautiful car, another fine review by Thomas. I expect that a large share of Taycan sales in the U.S. will be Cross Turismos. Which may not be many cars in this country if VAG/Audi/Porsche stick with these low capacity/short range batteries. They are giving Tesla lots of breathing room and time by trying to sell us on short range batteries. You can be sure that Toyota/Lexus, Hyundai-Kia/Genesis, Honda/Acura and others will see battery range as a major opportunity vs Audi/Porsche.
I would have liked a steeper rear window and extra side windows. I don't believe it would be so bad for range. Maybe even a bit more rear overhang for extra cargo space.
Very good review! Would love to see more of the negative aspects of the car as well, to make a balanced decision. I heard the storage in between the front seats is positioned very uncomfortable. Also can’t decide between the cross turismo and normal 4S…in terms of the looks
I live in California and I already spoke with my wallet and put a deposit down for the Cross Turismo 4S. Ideally I'd love to get the Sport Turismo version but it seems due to piss poor sales of the Panamera ST in the USA, we'll never see a TST here either
'estate, estate, estate, estate, estate.' That's a thumbs up. ... If I purchased one of these it'd be a ditch banger, it's not that pretty a car, some scratches and dents wouldn't hurt.

It's beautiful I would love to have the Cross Turismo Sport S😍😎👍
This car is everything: a Porsche, an EV, and a wagon! All the food groups represented!
It's an electric rally family hauler.
Now they just need to make a targa roof version of the CT. ;-)
@@scratchy996 lmao.
This is THE car. I can’t yet buy it, but I will.
I'm a cyclist, luv that functionality of tilting rack so you can access boot. Another great review Thomas, thank you.🙏👍
Finally a non-premiere video; I love it. Both the car and the video, that is.
Definitely prefer this CrossTurismo than the regular. Looks like big hatch than a crossover which is good and Taycan design overall looks more fitting with this body style imo. Not to mention, it's more practical with full hatch at the back. Nice Porsche 👌🏼
It looks incredible as the wagon - fast wagons all the way!!! I love the attention to detail Porsche put in to that quarry too :)
I agree, the Cross Turismo especially in Cherry Metallic or Gentian Blue looks better than the regular Taycan. The Electrify America stations still need some improvement in the United States, it make a good second or third car though
Definitely Cross Turismo for me! Picking one up end of June!
You lucky man...enjoy! 👍🏻😎
9:02 No shoe tap when getting in from the dirty outside, but a shoe tap in a clean EQS studio. 😂 Only Thomas. 😅
because EQS is a luxury car and this is an abomination.
😂😂
@@g1981c Edit: nevermind my comment, I confused EQC with EQS.
@@g1981c Love this. It’s one of my top three. The latest Hyundai Ionic, the Tesla Model Y and this. Can’t afford the Porsche though!
@@autogefuehl 😅
0:52 What a clean up! That look like a different car.
😅

Yes this model just looks amazing.
1:04 Shout out to the person who took the time to mark out the Taycan's profile on the old building in the background! 😉
😎
And don’t forget the “Soul Electrified” stencil also. Porsche marketing is first class. 👍

Yes Taycan Cross Turismo 4S will improve range.
Stunning. Fantastic review as always Thomas. Your presentations, even from an English viewer are excellent. I need this car in my life👍

I can see it being a big seller in the UK, my OPC is suggesting no cars until Sept at the earliest.
I'd go for base CT4, good value really when you consider, air suspension , performance battery etc

In my opinion plastic wheel arches/bumper things are better looking than black painted or at least most for cars
Thanks Thomas, another great vid. Great work to your production team also. Cool 🚗
Deserving of 1million subs... Why are you not 1million!? C'mon people, this is top reviewing! Impressive car also

The roof box is pretty cool, good for skis
Thanks Thomas, love the green colour.
Thanx!

Heyyy.... No hand-held mic!
Looks different but refreshing :D
Great review
👍👍
Yayyyy more Autogefuhl!!!!
👍👍
I would have the turbo S with the off-road package with matt black details. And the body work would have to be in green 💚 Stunning colour 😍
Cross turismo it's drop dead gorgeous compared to the sedan. Also way more practical for taller people to sit in the back with the extra head room.
This and the Top Gear review of it (excellent check it out) are the only reviews I consider worthy and I am a Porsche customer trying to convince myself of this.
This is fabulous and watching from Ireland
Thanks and best greetings!
The best EV car ever made, and the best car ever made all around

I’m still really torn between the Panamera Sport Turismo and the Taycan Cross Turismo, but if I go Taycan, the bike carrier and off road package would be a must!
That bike rack and the bikes are pretty cool.
I’d take the Cross Tourismo any day. I’d gladly trade my A4 Allroad for this.
Where is the lady g-force indicator?
If I could only have one car. This would be it, it does everything

Love your honest reviews 😜👍

great review，thank you Thomas

I would go for the Cross Turismo
I would always go for the Taycan Cross Turismo for it’s versatility. Any insights on charging speed?
Generally, Porsche is getting right with the EV rims design... excepting those on the mamba green one. The heck is that?🤷🏻♂️
I'm wondering if rubber all-weather mats would be included? Carpet + Mud/Dirt = not so good =) Love this car! thank you for the full review!
Cheers! Hm guess they have some in the accessory department

Interesting!
Completely bypassed the GT3 😂
I'm in the UK, cross turismo everytime, especially in Mamba Green 😃
That makes 2 of us....what a car colour combo!! 💚😎
AMAZING CAR! LOVE PORSCHE! LOVE THIS MODEL!
Yeah if Porsche won’t have any important use afterwards for those cars with the „ruined paint“, I‘ll gladly take one.
😎😅
The beauty of these turismos are sinful,too much, too good, do we deserve this ?
Can you fit a folded stroller in the trunk?
I would take mamba green with black Off road package. A small minus for not having 40/20/40 backseat. Was there even a skihatch?
Why would they paint wheel arches black? Looks wired, like they put 18" on car. Rest of it is fine, one good looking car
Yes it is a dream Porsche for me because it is much more practical, which makes more sense for me to spend the amount of $ on a car.
'estate, estate, estate, estate, estate.' That's a thumbs up. ... If I purchased one of these it'd be a ditch banger, it's not that pretty a car, some scratches and dents wouldn't hurt.
