PORSCHE TAYCAN TURBO S - FULL REVIEW WITH GERMAN AUTOBAHN 2021

EV Channels Review

The Porsche Taycan Turbo S is lauded as an exceptional EV, delivering an unparalleled driving experience that rivals and surpasses traditional sports cars like the 911 and Panamera. Its agility, handling, and acceleration are described as "insane" and "beyond anything," making it feel like a "small go-cart" despite its size and weight. The reviewer highlights the impressive grip, even in adverse conditions, and the direct connection to the road. Positives include the sporty yet comfortable interior, particularly the animal-free material options and the adaptive fabric seats, as well as the distinctive Porsche design. However, the review points out that the infotainment system can feel like "screen overkill" with a "complicated" menu structure. Real-world range is a concern, with figures between 250-400 km (150-250 miles) cited, which is considered less competitive than some rivals like the Tesla Model S, especially in winter conditions or during performance driving. Despite the range limitations and a high price point, the Turbo S is deemed a "spaceship" and a "special" vehicle, though the 4S or even entry-level models are suggested as more than sufficient for most buyers.
