    Question on regen …

    I think you’ll always have an option but right now too many drivers are driving one pedal and getting used to it. so eventually Porsche will need to address. I see it like a mode, just like sport. You can set to none, some, and one pedal depending on how you like to drive or how you are...

    Question on regen …

    I can’t wait until Porsche just lets you have the one pedal driving setting. Its inevitable.

    Macan 4S EV, coming from a Tesla Model Y: Thoughts?

    I think Porsche might be clinging to the thought that how a car drives is how a gas engine car drives, when people are quickly moving to how a car drives is how a EV/Tesla drives. I really think Porsche need to discover what a Porsche EV drives like alone and not what a Porsche EV trying to...

    Macan 4S EV, coming from a Tesla Model Y: Thoughts?

    I came from Tesla as well. Model Y is a great EV and just ok car. Macan will be a good EV and an amazing car. You may also want to consider Rivian which is both a great EV and great car. The R1S is amazing and the R2 will be pretty much the perfect replacement for a Y. Macan - the fun of...

    Powered Charge Port Door - Be Careful

    I have auto on my Rivian and it is ok but got manual on the Macan. I dunno for Macan it just feels more “manual is better”. Very good PSA though. As I think this would be a common occurrence.

    OTA software update , does it work ?

    Having driven Teslas since 2016 this is not at all reality. The general car UI and functionality was mostly rock solid. Apple like. It just worked. Updates only added features. So the car I bought was an even better car each year. Full Self Driving and those features, yes that was more...

    Should You Buy The Porsche Taycan Innodrive Function?

    Coming from FSD on Tesla for years, literally don't want to drive a car that can't keep a lane by itself on highway drives. Lane changing also is a huge plus. It makes long trips 1000x better. Now whether innodrive is as good as Tesla, probably not exactly, but based on reports, the version...

    [FAQ] What exactly does the AR HUD do? [Augmented Reality Heads-Up Display]

    It was really fun to play with during a demo drive, but ultimately I wasn't sure how much I'd use it and didn't like the bump on the dashboard it added. But yeah, it is pretty cool...

    EV batteries may last up to 40% longer than expected

    A gas car is degraded as soon as it comes out of the factory. Only 20-30% useable in the tank. A gallon of gasoline contains approximately 33.7 kWh (121 MJ) of chemical energy. Internal Combustion Engine Efficiency • Internal combustion engines are inherently inefficient due to...

    Study: Less than 1% of EV owners would go back to full gas-powered vehicles... would you?

    Been EV since 2016 going back is long gone so psyched Porsche has a great option now best thing ever.

    EV batteries may last up to 40% longer than expected

    The chips that run it age faster than battery. thats what I found in 2018 Model S

    What’s the config option you hope they adjust in future versions?

    What are the “I want the X but don’t like…” Bose: I want the Bose but don’t like how the amp and woofer system takes up the well in back. Coming from previous EV like Tesla you really get used to having that space and don’t want to give it up. S: I want the S but don’t want to give up range...

    Quest For The Reasonable Config

    I stuck with the original spec. Though it was interesting seeing everyone’s thoughts on it. I think there is a rear wheel driving spec in my future.

    Quest For The Reasonable Config

    I think that is the best way to approach a reasonable config. Figure out which thing matters most: look, comfort, performance and focus the spec on it.

    thanks for the videos. Your spec and thoughts on it helped keep mine reasonable.

    Quest For The Reasonable Config

    Also interested in real world range, as I wanted the speed boost but didn’t want to give up range.

    Quest For The Reasonable Config

    It happens. Making a "reasonable" Macon takes massive willpower.

    Quest For The Reasonable Config

    I agree that RWS is awesome, but may not make sense for the "Reasonable Config" ?

    Quest For The Reasonable Config

    Coming from Tesla Model S. With interest rates where they are at, and depreciation looming, I thought I'd try to do the "reasonable" config. Not too over the top, but not basic. I found I definitely started more higher than not, but gradually really thought about things and got to a really...
