PORSCHE TAYCAN 4S FULL REVIEW WITH SNOW AND ICE ELECTRIC AWD SPECIAL

EV Channels Review

The Autogefühl review of the Porsche Taycan 4S in Finland highlights its impressive performance in extreme cold and icy conditions, showcasing its all-wheel-drive capabilities with standard winter tires. The reviewer praises the Taycan 4S for offering a significant portion of the driving pleasure and refinement of its more expensive siblings (Turbo and Turbo S) at a more accessible price point. Key positives include the comfortable and well-appointed interior, the availability of a vegan interior option, and the intuitive, albeit digital-heavy, control interface. The reviewer notes that while it lacks the blistering acceleration of the Turbo S, the 4-second 0-100 km/h time is still exhilarating and more than sufficient for real-world driving. Practicality is also a strong suit, with decent rear-seat space and ample storage, including a front trunk. The main criticisms revolve around the extensive use of touchscreens for functions like climate control, which can be distracting while driving, and the complex WLTP range figures that are difficult to achieve in real-world conditions, especially with extensive use of heating and stop-start driving. Despite these points, the Taycan 4S is presented as a highly capable, refined, and enjoyable electric sports sedan that justifies its place in the Porsche lineup.
