EV Channels Review
The Porsche Taycan 4S (2021) is lauded as a truly complete and balanced electric car, not just a great EV. The reviewer highlights its superb propulsion, ride, handling, interior, and packaging, emphasizing its deep engineering and familiar Porsche driving dynamics. While acknowledging its high electricity consumption and less competitive range compared to rivals like Tesla (around 370-380 km real-world vs. 414 km claimed), the Taycan excels in its composed GT car capabilities and exceptional damping, masking its considerable weight effectively. The interior blends classic Porsche elements with modern tech, though some controls require familiarization. The reviewer's main critique is the Taycan's thirstiness and the optional Alcantara steering wheel's durability. Despite the high price and optional extras, the Taycan is presented as a serious, well-made Porsche that successfully merges the best of electric and combustion-engine driving experiences, making it a compelling option for those seeking a premium EV.
