i drove the Audi RS E-Tron GT recently and yeah it's as good as they say but Panamera has double the range and double the boot space, which is what matters in the real world ... the test also should have included Model S Plaid which is as fast as Taycan and has a boot as big as Panamera while also having a peerless charging network ... of course Tesla's quality is some of the worst while Porsche's is some of the best, but also Tesla is far cheaper. Personally i will not consider a Tesla but my friend just got a Plaid and is very happy. I think all 3 cars have something great to offer.

Agreed The Panamera & Caymen Underated

Taycan way more classy

At a comparison level below that of your testers, the Taycan 4S Cross Turismo competes squarely with the Panamera E-Hybrid. I first drove he Panamera, in 4S guise, back when it was launched and since then the car has just become that much more capable and attractive. But without a doubt, choosing the Taycan 4S CT was the better choice for us. Imagine a world where you wake up to a full tank (or 80% full if you want your tanks to keep operating optimally) every morning, for 20% of the comparable $/km of gas; or can pay for your fuel using the panels on the roof of your house. Now imagine with zero fuss or fanfare, sub 4 second 0-60 launches are the turn of a knob and two pedals pushes away, all day. Every time you get into the vehicle it’s the temp you choose. And it drives with ethereal, telepathic precision leaving you to think “well of course it does; it’s a Porsche…” The hood line is low and blends 911 with Mission E. Looks are gorgeous and everyone around town looks twice to see “what was that?!?” Both are amazing cars and there are certainly some luxurious touches the Panamera has over the Taycan. Ultimately Taycan wins!

The 20% of the cost will only hold as long as EVs are a small minority of vehicles on the road. The UK government gets over £25 billion a year in fuel duty, and another £12 billion in fuel VAT; it will get that money from somewhere else (e.g. electricity...). In the US, taxes on fuel are lower, but the same applies (never mind the current "eco-incentives" on vehicle purchases).

I have been taken around Silverstone in a Taycan S Turbo and the Porsche drivers do not hold back, full send from the moment you launch (with launch control that 2.8s). I can testify that in high speed corner and tight corners there is little to no body roll and the grip is insane. One of my drivers even tried to get the car to break traction mid corner at about 100mph... Nope, the tires would NOT allow and the chassis was way too planted. The Taycan is a beast and a total sleeper. If you pulled up next to one in many supercars you are about to get a very fast surprise when the Taycan leaves the scene. Depending on where you read online it's 2.8 or 2.6s 0-60 (0-100 kph). The launch control is almost dangerous. If your passengers head is not forced back into the headrest.... It's about to be...

@@michael-masi-2021 The cost of electricity is not at all what I'm talking about. It's the government's tax revenue deriving from fossil fuels that will decrease and eventually disappear. However, the rest of public spending (of money coming from taxation) is not majorly influenced by the price of energy, and will still need to be financed. If the government can't get that revenue by increasing electricity prices (and they may or may not be able to - they could simply outlaw unregulated solar panels and tax the regulated ones, just like they do with alcohol duty), other taxes will have to go up. From VED to road charging to whatever else they come up with. ETA: whether the balance in tax changes results in "lower costs" going to the owners of BEVs is a completely open question; it might, it might not, it might even reverse the situation. What is certain is that that amount of tax revenue will not simply be forgotten or forgiven.

Gear heads are about to get real mad at me, but the Taycan is basically the electrical replacement of the Panamera! Porsche is slowly going through their lineup and adding electric versions to their popular models. One day, the 911 will cross over! That will be the last line to do it though.

So. On the acceleration test you didn’t press the sport response button in the middle of the mode selector on the Panamera to give ur its full power. And it looks like in the track test, yes the car was in sports + but the suspension didn’t look like it was set to the low ride height.
