I’VE OWNED MY PORSCHE TAYCAN RWD FOR ALMOST 1 YEAR! HERE’S WHAT I LOVE & HATE

EV Channels Review

The reviewer provides a comprehensive, year-long ownership review of her rear-wheel-drive Porsche Taycan. She highlights its striking "sexiest EV" design, exceptional handling that lives up to the Porsche name, and a comfortable ride that can switch between sporty and cloud-like. A standout feature is the highly customizable and dynamic ambient lighting system, which reacts to music and door status. On the downside, the reviewer criticizes the laggy and non-updatable PCM (Porsche Communication Manager) infotainment system, the lack of true one-pedal driving, and the need to manually reset driving modes after each shutdown. Despite these software and interface frustrations, she praises Porsche's excellent customer service and the car's surprisingly good real-world range, exceeding its EPA estimate by about 50 miles (250 miles achieved vs. 200 EPA). Ultimately, she expresses a strong desire to buy the car again, despite its flaws, due to the overall driving experience and aesthetics.
