There was never enough released about the Bose one to tell how well it was implemented, but the videos of the Lexus with it from the 1990s looked almost identical to the content here.

Using the energy taken from the suspension damping to charge the battery would fully close the loop for an electric car.

Wow, the clips of the new active suspension are so impressive! I got to briefly drive a Tycan Turbo S last year and was already completely blown away by its suspension - I thought it couldn't be as perfect as I imagined/heard but it really was (it was the first Porsche I drove and I never experienced a suspension in that league in other cars). Looking at those comparison clips, it feels like the new suspension must be truly surreal! IIRC there is also a setting to allow some body roll as the absence of body roll can feel quite weird? I cannot wait to experience it for myself someday (hopefully).

I'm dead.. i laughed so hard at the ski boot and swim flippers

Finally someone's put active suspension into production. Bose prototyped an electric system back in the 1990s that went nowhere (Look for videos of it installed in a Lexus LS400, where they're not only doing all the same things as the Porsche does in this video, but they also use the suspension to make the car jump over things, just for fun 🙂). I suspect the main thing that stopped the Bose system making production was that it required a big battery (Compared to the 12V starter battery in an IC engined car) to run. Electric cars already have batteries massively bigger than needed to run active suspension, but until now nobody has made use of them for suspension, which has always struck me as a massive missed opportunity. It wouldn't be hard to set up a system like this so the energy usually lost to suspension damping charges the battery, making driving rough roads both smoother for the driver and passengers and more efficient. The biggest issue with any system like this is to make sure it fails safely though - imagine the harm this type of suspension could do if it decided to rattle the life out of the passengers or do exactly the wrong thing to maintain grip around a bend due to false readings from the sensors measuring the road surface.

I drove a C5 with hydropneumatic suspension nearly 20 years ago, near enough the last they made with it, and while the ride on bad roads was uncannily impressive, the engine was so gutless it was borderline dangerous, so I got a 1.9 TDI Octavia instead, which pulled much harder, and the ride was still more than good enough. The auto leveling in the Citroen suspension would come in useful when towing or carrying heavy stuff too - keeps the car level for better handling and stops the lights from dazzling oncoming drivers.

Great video ! One of your best to date, you’re getting better, just like the Taycan !

From one nerd to another re the regenerative braking strategies of Tesla vs Porsche: As a former Model 3 and current E-tron GT owner I prefer the one pedal approach taken by Tesla, but there’s one huge exception. An exception so big that I can’t stand Tesla handling at the limit; I suspect it forced Porsche in the direction they took. Braking, regen or otherwise, works to transfer weight forwards. Thus in a Tesla with one pedal driving lifting effectively tightens the car’s line towards an apex. This works great… until you push hard enough that stability control decides to intervene. Then Tesla stops regenerative braking completely, the nose unexpectedly doesn’t tuck, the car doesn’t slow and you’re instantly a car’s width away from where you expected to be. I’ll concede most people’s goal is to never push their cars hard enough to invoke stability control. For those that do, however, feet of uncertainty at an apex depending on the car’s mood is unacceptable. I get why Tesla does it- their #1 job is to insure the car doesn’t spin with TC on. The regen braking causes the rotation so that must be removed. In the Porsche, on the other hand, the driver’s foot is causing the deceleration/ rotation, not the car, and the car doesn’t arbitrarily take the brake pedal away. The result is a more consistent experience that’s both far more enjoyable and safer to push to the limit. If you want to see the effect yourself without it biting you simply go in hot into a spacious cloverleaf/ sweeper, lift abruptly to get the rear moving, gather it up and then try lifting again… Probably the worst thing about Tesla handling IMHO.

If I see a red light in the distance I just lift off and let the car roll and use steering wheel paddles for regen and break pedal at the very end for fine control (cause the automatics can't stop as smoothly as I can).

I love the Taycan but you can’t compare with such a massive price difference. Nice to see Porsche flexing its luxury and performance history. Tesla is way behind in the interior luxury side, but is allowing a great many more to afford performance. It really is Apple to oranges for now.

​@@4literv6lol did you really compare lap times to a car that is 16 years old?

Reminding people that you could buy multiple Teslas for the price of one Taycan is like saying “yeah, you could buy a mansion, but why not buy 10,000 sheds?”

@@CarlosGutierrez-qw6prthat’s a joke teslas reliability is just as bad as Land Rover, Mercedes, Lincoln, etc teslas are no different to those brands teslas reliability is horrendous look at the consumer reports if you somehow think a Tesla is more durable and reliable than a Toyota who btw are known to make some of the toughest cars for eternity then you know nothing about cars 😂 Toyotas have reached 500,000 miles to millions with ease meanwhile teslas struggle to even hit 100k I’d rather take a Land Cruiser over a model x plaid any day 💯

This thing is sick. If it weren't electric, I'd kill for one. That suspension tech is especially crazy.

I love my old Taycan, I had two, 2020 and 2022, and I knew this improvement was coming....so I sold them - now these cars are totally impressive

ICE has reached it's peak in terms of performance and efficiency. There is no more room for relevant gains. Batteries still have a huge margin for improvements. In a few years you will barely even have to charge your EV.

@@sutherlacd27 You mean as a race car? Maybe. For normal use... Well my EV can do 250km/h, thats about 150 miles per hour. I never go that fast. Such speeds are simply irrellevant outside the race track. And if you really want, buy a Rimac to have an EV much faster than that,

The same ones working since the 1730s to mine for cobalt? Artisan mines contributed less than 2% to the global cobalt supply genius. 👍🏻😁

@@4literv6 I strongly doubt that you could find a reliable source for that 2% number. Siddharth Kara in his book Cobalt Red visited many of the actual mines in the chaotic DRC and found them very different from official reports. I don't know where Porsche gets its cobalt. Perhaps a clean documented source is included in the hefty price tag, but the current reality is that the EV market in its present form could not exist without the cobalt from DRC. BTW, where did you get that 2% number?

The kids would still be there if EVs did not exist. Same basic battery formula is used in phones, tablets, etc. And cobalt is needed to make gasoline.

Tell that to the oil industry. They're not gonna stop using cobalt.
