    Nice.
    Your Shakedown Drive of Macan EV is eagerly awaited, especially the base RWD model.
    The RWD model could be an interesting one, as it has the same battery. Most cars reduce battery size for the base model, but it's good they kept it the same size here as in all other models.

      @@Aggie4life77 2020 and yes, it is PLENTY powerful, but I understand if people want more power. The 4S is at the perfect power level IMO for daily driving. You rarely get any opportunities to put it to use outside of track or empty back roads. That said, go for the GTS if you want just a bit more kick, and the 2025 models new range, power and charging speeds are a sweet deal. If the GTS had been out back when I bought my 4S, I think I would have gone for it.

    Finally some mountain roads in the alps! I hope this road gave you a taste for more since there are sooo many more amazing driving roads in the alps including some mountain passes. Both Austria and Italy is great since they have 100/90 km/h base speed and are quite relaxed with speed monitoring. Switzerland have some really great road as well but its a ⛔ for speeding.

    Man you going down those twisties brought me back to playing video game days lol! That was insane! As far as who this car is for, I agree that this is for the person who wants to track this thing and track it only. I’m specifically talking about this version in particular. For the regular GT, that is for someone who simply wants one of the fastest cars on the road that you can daily drive. I’m personally going to go for a used GTS. That will give me all the speed and range I need along with great handling!

    @mickyd3 6 місяців тому +1

    I love this car, however, I wish Porsche and other manufacturers would remove GT from the name unless it truly i designed for long range grand touring which is supposed to have comfort and luxry for long drives. Removing insulating and having thin glass windows invokes more of a performance oriented vs. grand touring (GT) name. Secondly, my bigger gripe is that Porsche continues to use Turbo on a non turbo car. This should be reserved for only ICE engines with a true turbo setup. Porsche needs to come up with a new badge or name to indicate the top of the line performance EV model. The Porshce Taycan GT Turbo is great but the names should be different and reflective of the motorized platform and purpose of the car. I would suggest Porsche use Taycan UP (Ultimate Performance) name and badging for these high performance models and Porsche Taycan P-4S to replace the Taycan GT 4S model.
