EV Channels Review

Doug DeMuro reviews the 2020 Porsche Taycan Turbo S, highlighting its significant impact on the EV market and its performance capabilities. He praises the car's exceptional acceleration, describing it as "crazy fast" and "insane," and commends its sports-car-like handling, comparing it favorably to a 911 and finding it sportier than the Panamera. The interior quality is noted as a significant step up from Tesla, with premium materials and excellent build quality. However, DeMuro criticizes the touchscreen-only volume control and the somewhat basic plastic panel on the door pillar as minor drawbacks. He also points out the limited range compared to Tesla and the very high price point as significant disadvantages. The "electric sport sound" feature is singled out as particularly disappointing. Despite its flaws, DeMuro concludes that the Taycan Turbo S is a "fantastic car" that drives like a true Porsche, though its high cost and less developed charging infrastructure mean it's playing catch-up to Tesla in some areas.
