Fast, Sleek, High Tech
Smallish rear seat
Excellent EV, 4 door fun with plenty of of luxury!! Only had this car 3 months but it has exceeded my expectations. It is quick and smooth on the highway and around town. At 85% charge I have 235 mile range, which is plenty. I am going to install a fast charger at home but just using a regular outlet will work as long as you start with 60% or much as each night it will go back to 85%. Lots of tech built in to this car via 3 screens which takes some learning but it works well. I did buy a CPO from dealer so everything is warranted for 5 years. Worth the peace of mind. Sit back and enjoy the ride is this beautiful auto.
Styling, performance and pure refinement
Be prepared to open that wallet. This car isn’t cheap but if you can afford it, just do it.
The 2023 Taycan is hands down the best car I’ve ever owned. It delivers the cutting-edge technology of an electric car, but with the unmistakable performance DNA of a Porsche — instant torque, precision handling, and driving characteristics that rival any sports car on the road. The interior and exterior quality are impeccable, easily outclassing my Tesla’s tech-focused cabin and elevating beyond the refinement I experienced in my BMWs. It turns heads everywhere I go. Yes, I’ve had a couple of recall issues, but Porsche service handled them seamlessly — minor bumps for such an incredible ownership experience. Range anxiety? Not an issue. Owners of the GTS and above quickly realize once behind the wheel that performance and charging speed (under 15 minutes to 80%) make the question irrelevant. This is a Porsche that just happens to be electric, not an EV pretending to be a sports car. If you want the ultimate electric performance car with true luxury and craftsmanship, the Taycan is it.
The Taycan is an absolute nightmare. Mine was in the shop for 3 months this summer! Within days of getting it back, the AC stopped working and it’s now back in the shop indefinitely. Porsche’s customer service has been a complete let down all the way from the top, down to the local dealership in Clearwater, Florida. I’m paying almost $2k a month for a car I can’t even drive. Porsche doesn’t care about quality or customer satisfaction anymore.
Head Turning Looks
Electric has its place
Perfect sporty driver. Know your range and it’s fantastic. This is not your only vehicle. This is a cream puff kept polished and ready for luxury driving.

battery life in cold temp's
Has it all - performance, style, handling, comfort, reliability, quiet, fit/finish, and did I mention performance?
Jekyll and Hyde combination of sport and luxury
Extremely limited availability, high option prices
Such an amazing sports car and no paid service required in over two years. I'm bringing it in for scheduled maintenance and recalls soon. The recalls are software updates and preventative measures. The scheduled maintenance is just inspections and fluid changes, with no engine issues to deal with and hardly any brake service since the Taycan uses mostly regenerative braking. I have a Taycan 4S and it performed amazingly at the track for a full day on two charges. I let all my friends and coworkers drive my Taycan and they giggle like schoolgirls when doing a launch control start or cornering at high speed. It also carries a surprising amount of stuff. I've had five adults in the car for short distances and it wasn't terrible. Getting infants in the back seat requires tilting the baby seat, which can be an issue if the baby is asleep. The cross tourismo and sport tourismo versions of the Taycan have larger rear access and this may not be an issue. I drive long distances, such as several trips a year over 800 miles, and have never had a significant issue.
I own a Tesla and yes they are great from a tech and charging infrastructure perspective but the Taycan is a Porsche. It drives like a Porsche handles like a Porsche and is simply solid. It just happens to be electric. The Tesla is a great car handles well is fast but it’s an EV first and a drivers car second.
