2024 PORSCHE TAYCAN FACELIFT REVIEW - EVEN QUICKER IN ACCELERATION AND RECHARGING!

EV Channels Review

The 2024 Porsche Taycan facelift receives a significant update, enhancing acceleration, recharging speeds, and range. The reviewer highlights improvements across the board, from updated LED lighting and new wheel designs to the introduction of the optional Porsche Active Ride suspension, which actively counteracts body movements for a smoother, more stable ride. The battery capacity has increased, leading to a claimed real-world range of 400-500 km. Charging is dramatically faster, with 10-80% achievable in under 18 minutes thanks to a 320 kW peak DC charging rate. Interior updates include a new leather-free option with Race-Tex and wool, and an enhanced Apple CarPlay integration allowing control of vehicle functions. While acceleration is quicker across all trims, the reviewer notes the base RWD model is now faster than previous higher trims. The reviewer praises the overall refinement and the effectiveness of the new suspension, though notes that its sportiest settings deactivate the active ride for maximum flatness. The trunk space in the Sport/Cross Turismo variants is significantly improved in height compared to the sedan.
