  • My Favorite Porsche Feature: LAUNCH CONTROL!! How to Activate and Does Your Porsche Have it?! I still remember to this day the first time I was in a Porsche and Launch Control was activated.... It was a 2015 911 Turbo S Cabriolet.... after this out of body experience I remember thinking... how is this even legal?... the amount of G-forces your body feels after a launch you literally feel like you are on a roller coaster!! I knew from this day forward this would become my favorite feature on a Porsche if properly equipped because not only is it fun the process is very simple! Watch to find out how to complete launch control on your Porsche!

    I have a Taycan Turbo S. Loving it. Can the launch control be activated on the Sports Plus mode or only the Sports mode?

    • @Pcarwhisperer
      @Pcarwhisperer  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It can be activated in either Sport or Sport Plus mode in the Taycan. All other cars need Sport Chrono with Sport Plus 👍🏼

    @justinnaoe1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi! Thanks for being so informative. I’m looking into purchasing a taycan 4s. I’m debating between two cars- one with sports chrono and the other with none.
    What’s the main difference and am I missing out if I don’t get sports chrono package?
    The car with no sport chrono is my preferred color option, black. The car with sports chrono is volcano grey metallic.

    • @Pcarwhisperer
      @Pcarwhisperer  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hey Justin! Thank you! Congratulations, you definitely wont regret it! In the Taycan the difference of Sport Chrono is not substantial! On a day to day usability stand point you are not missing anything really! Some of the difference from Sports Chrono clock one without is as follows:
      Sports Chrono:
      -GT Multifunction steering Wheel
      - Mode switch on the steering and clock on dash
      - Sport Plus mode which further enhances chassis, PAA (Porsche Active Aerodynamics) and temperature regulation of the main vehicle Battery.
      - Addition of an Individual mode (Personal mode- ex- Driving mode in normal, sport suspension on and vehicle is lowered suspension setting) can save there presets when switched to Individual mode.
      From a day to day usage stand point these differences are not that significant. Sounds like the black one may be the winner 😊. Do both Taycan's have the Electric Sport sound? Overall I feel like this option is more important as it really helps bring more emotion to the car!
      Thanks for reaching out! Let me know if you have any more questions and I would be happy to help!

    Thanks for such great videos. Just wanted to ask if we get a RWD (Base Taycan), without Sport chrono package. Do we still get the Launch Control in the car?
    My second question is how much of a difference you will feel in RWD sport and sport plus mode.
    Thank you.

    • @Pcarwhisperer

      You're welcome Rahul! Thank you for the support! Great question The Taycan is the first Porsche to be able to complete launch control without Sport Chrono Package and do a launch in Sport Mode! Personally I do not feel a huge difference in sport and Sport plus mode 👍🏼

    Just for your own information though, launch control didn't come out for the first time with PDK. It came out in the 2008 997 GT2 MANUAL transmission ;-)
    Which was, similar operation. Clutch in and full throttle to activate, sat at 5000rpm, then side step the clutch and away you go!

    What is the acceleration without launch control?

    • @Pcarwhisperer
      @Pcarwhisperer  ปีที่แล้ว

      Acceleration without launch control is just a quick acceleration. With Launch control activated this supplies the motor(s) with max power. It is similar to pre loading a windy toy car preparing it for max acceleration before setting it down on the ground 👍🏼

      All Taycan's have it! It is the only Porsche that Launch Control can be done in either Sport or Sport +. All other Porsches need Sport Chrono Package to activate Launch control and can only be done in Sport +. 👍🏼
