2027 Porsche Taycan

"It’s a Porsche"

"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."

"Perfect EV luxury commuter"

"I sold my V8 M3 6MT and leased a 2021 base model Taycan after we started smelling the Bootleg Fire in Boston. It was the only EV not a Tesla that felt luxurious and could comfortably fit 2 car seats. The car feels like zipping around in a bubble of calm, even in Boston traffic. It handles better than the Porsche SUV's and Panamera; not as good as the 911. Other than an awful bluetooth system that has trouble connecting initially to my phone, the car has been fantastic. A key feature I overlooked when looking at EV's is how quickly the can recharge at a Level 3 charger. The Taycan can do 270 kw/hr, which means that you can add on about 200 miles in about 25 minutes. That made our roadtrips a breeze, even with two young children. I think the car is great, but do think that it's not a "value" buy by any stretch of the imagination. What you are paying for is knowing that if you have a problem, the dealer will pick your car up from you and leave you with a loaner. The service at Porsche is incredible."

"32,000 miles and would definitely buy it again"

"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."
