EV Channels Review
The Porsche Taycan RWD delivers an impressive highway range, significantly exceeding its EPA rating. The reviewer highlights the vehicle's exceptional efficiency in range mode, where the rear motor decouples, allowing for front-wheel-drive operation. Despite initial skepticism about whether the two-speed transmission would be more efficient than decoupling the rear motor, the test proved the RWD Taycan's capability. The vehicle achieved 293 miles in the 70 MPH highway loop test, surpassing the 225-mile EPA estimate for the large battery. The reviewer praises the Taycan's overall driving dynamics, charging speed, and road-trip suitability, calling it a "charging monster" and a "special vehicle." Minor points of note include the absence of InnoDrive on this specific German-spec model and the reviewer's preference for running tests until complete battery depletion for accuracy.
