  Porsche 4S Taycan Plus - thorough winter test 9.1

  test drive of Porsche Taycan 4S Plus 2020

  • extremely low center of gravity

  • outstanding interior soundproofing

  • interior and exterior design

  • versatility - it can be a sports car and comfortable limousine

  • great joy felt over how it can be driven, how it is designed and manufactured

  • hugs the road incredibly as if denying the laws of physics (even on poor roads, the chassis keeps you out of trouble)

  • battery warranty of 8 years/160,000 km (must not drop below 70%)

  • well-placed cameras around the car, they don’t get too dirty even in bad weather

  • 5 EuroNCAP stars (the highest safety rating)

  • there is a surprising amount of legroom and headroom in the back, but only for two people (the middle seat is more for extraordinary situations, e.g., for a child); in other words, the Taycan wonderfully accommodates four adults

  • a few years ago, unattainable acceleration in such a large executive vehicle

  • acceleration and flexibility better than 99% of cars on the road

  • low body - low air resistance (Cx 0.22)

  • rear cargo volume 366 l + possibility of a roof load (75 kg)

  • highly confident chassis even at high speeds on the German Autobahn

  • a wide range of chassis settings in the infotainment menu

  • two-speed transmission installed on the rear axle - supports excellent driving performance even at high speeds

  • software update via the Internet (OTA update - over-the-air)

  • haptic feedback in displays

  • the front storage space “frunk” is relatively large (80 l) and also accommodates standard cabin baggage

  • large wheelbase of 2,900 mm, contributing to driving certainty at high speeds and the spaciousness of the interior

  • quarter mile in 12.13 seconds (Launch Control), 12.72 seconds (without LC) on winter tires

  • wireless Apple Car Play

  • Porsche mobile app

  • rear axle steering (surcharge)

  • high weight, about 2,200 kg

  • it lacks a one-pedal driving mode commonly found in many electric vehicles

  • high prices for surcharges

  • with the battery cold and low (below cca 25%), power becomes slightly limited, i.e., acceleration too

  • poor visibility to the rear through the C-pillar and small rear window

  • this is probably not even a minus, but in light of the weight, let us not confuse the Taycan with the model 911

  • the steering wheel covers the side of the large display underneath it

  • The Taycan is nearly five meters long and nearly two meters wide, which is definitely noticeable when parking in the city

  Reliable, FAST and FUN! 8.3

  owner review of Porsche Taycan 4S 2020

  • Very reliable, with minimal service required.

  • Drives like a slot car; simply point and shoot.

  • Fast and Fun.

  • Porsche and Volkswagen have a long way to go to catch up the number of charging stations offered by Tesla.

  • Getting a PCM module replacement took much too long.
