The thing that intrigues me is that they are all using some variation of the sound you get with an electric train motor. This makes sense as it is a sound most people will have heard and would associate with electric traction. The new electric London Black Cab makes a sort of whirring noise a bit like the sound straight cut gears make as in old gearboxes. I remember back in the 70s, Lucas were experimenting with electric drive and had a couple of single deck London buses. At one point they were trying out various sounds and one was horses hooves! It cause more trouble because people didn't look for a bus but for a horse wagon! Edit 28/09/19 for spelling
I put 4 pairs of hiking shoes and beach flip-flops when we went on this years summer holiday road trip of Norway. And 4 airline cabin strollers and an XL sizedNorth Face bag and 4 all weather coats in the boot👌🏻 Perfect long trip car with ~400miles of range if needed to (4S+).

you talk and explain so calm without being boring. I think you got the spark everyone wished his maths and science teacher to have. First video i've seen on this channel and i really enjoy watching this :)
Great video. As a Tesla fan I can say this was well done and props to Jonny in presenting it in a fair and honest way. Porsche has made a fantastic car. I'll never afford one but those that can will get an excellent car. As Jonny said, that badge is important. Porsche have done their badge respect.
im also somewhat a tesla fan, and i have to agree with that ansesmest, and im actually also a porche fan :) i just wish they would have thrown bigger batteries in, since the porche is already pretty expensive (2 x the price of a tesla s in my country).
@@chrisjon True. But let's see the real world driving, and/or will Porsche release more of the battery in the future?...Plus, the 4S, and single motor Taycan's should creep up into or surpass 300+ mile range.
@MSL525 they wont release anymore of the battery, i believe like any other decent electric car, they keep a certain % capacity in reserve, so they can guarantee a certain KWH through its lifetime. But atleast i love that porche as in my opinion is now the "second" car company to release a compelling electric vehicle even though its very expensive.
What an incredible first sports EV from Porsche. I’ve never wanted a 911, but I want a Taycan Turbo. With the “Turbo” badge removed obviously. Great film guys, lovely photography.
Because, just like Johnny and Robert, I think Porsche are being silly by using the word “Turbo” on a car that not only doesn’t have a Turbo but doesn’t even have an ICE. They’re citing “brand continuity”, “brand recognition” or some such tosh. But it’s silly and I’d remove it. End of.
As a Tesla fanboy, i'm really impressed with what they've achieved with the Taycan. I'm picking up my Model 3 performance on Sunday and i'm sure i will fall in love with it. But it in no way compares to the Taycan. This car is in a different league in many, many ways. I hope the Taycan sells like hotcakes and the rest of the industry pick up the pace on moving to electric.
Have a model 3 Long range, dual motor EA, FSD (everything except performance package) for a year in Montreal. Wouldn't use any other car than Tesla. One slight issue, the suspension is stiff. Actual problem without interior parking, unfreezing the car and particularly windows to get in is absolutely terrible (more than 50 mins preheating at -20C). Music, theater with V10 with over the air upgrades are amazing ! No other car manufacturer provides updates on a 2 weeks basis.
Well the Taycan is 4 or almost 5 times the prize of a Model 3. It is common sense that it is a lot higher quality and performance. Both are great for what they do! ;)
Well, the subject is surprisingly often out of focus (unintentionally). That's a little sloppy - or lack of skill. On the other hand, the camera angles and cutting are mostly very nice. On average photography is in the plus side in my eyes, and seems to be getting better by every video.
Taycan is stunning , so many details that you pick up on the more you observe in typical Porsche fashion. And the official press videos with that enhanced sport motor sound is pretty cool .
At last - a car that is actually beautiful to look at, I hope it catches on - I'm sick of the "angry" look in all modern vehicles these days! Great video and report, Jonny! Amazing machine, it's just energy storage that's getting in the way at the moment, but it's coming on leaps and bounds i'm sure.
The looks, the badge, the heritage, the fast charging... man, the Taycan is already so much more appealing than the Model S. If I were rich I would get one day 1
@@Secretlyanothername Nope, it's the badge (and PERCEIVED quality). We all know that those Porsche motors and complete powertrain are NOT tested for 1 million miles. We are pretty sure the batteries are NOT tested for even 300,000 miles. We know the Teslas are. Therefore, it is not about the quality that counts.
@SysPowerTools Sorry to burst your bubble, but Rivian uses CCS, the standard that everyone outside of Tesla is settling on. People don't go with Tesla for two reasons. Tesla, wants to charge other manufacturers for access. Why would they subsidize Tesla's network when they could use the open standard. Which leads to the second reason. Proprietary interfaces almost always lose to open source ones. Anyone can build a CCS network and dozens of companies are.
@SysPowerTools Because Porsche is part of Volkswagen Group,they so big they will build their own network in no time,using the open standard. VW Group has pumped over 25 billion Euros,that´s billion with a "B" in their EV programs,they will put Elon Musk out of business in the next years.
This, Johnny, is not fair! I was eating at the Burger King right beside the ionity charging station. Drove by and got excited because there was a Taycan there! If I am not mistaken, there were two. I was going to stop and just take a quick look at it. Appearantly you were there as well! So unfair! Such a fan, THE main reason I follow the channel. The way you review, bliss. Had my chance to meet one of my favorite presenters ever, if I would only have checked the Taycan out! F*ck! Unfair! Fun to watch though, informative as always!
At FCL2018 an engineer connected with VW group explained to me that the gear change wouldn't need a mechanical "syncromesh" because the motor can be so finely and precisely controlled, ie it would align itself. Clever, it would be well worth having it explained in detail though.
@@MarkGarnettUK Sounds like something any "stepper motor" can do. If you know where the gear is and you know where the motor is, just equalize them electronically and then press them together.
@@JasonCarmichael An electric car motor won't be a stepper motor. Of course they will have an encoder or a speed sensor like any axle on a car that has ABS / ESC. Probably all it takes.
they said it is on the longer gear every time, even when stopped, except when you turn the launch control on, so it would be difficult to feel, probably it changes back to high only when you release the gas to get the required mileage
@@marcnobel3938 I'm retired, but, I use it almost daily. It has all the range I need. We've done 17,500 miles in 18 months (need to cut back a bit to get under the PCP miles). We've done several long journeys. Some over 150 miles without stopping to charge, but that's when I'm sure of a charge at the end. I can carry 2 sets of golf clubs and a playing partner quite comfortably.
Bravo Porsche. Really like this and the green colour was amazing. Great review as always carpervert, I’m an impressedTesla owner. I’d have one if it was with in my price range👍🏼 And Before we get the ‘EV for the rich’ comments could you have financially bought a Porsche before? No...well then the EV for the rich is a pointless statement, it’s a Porsche, Porsche are supposed to be expensive.
Quite. And a Porsche 911 Carerra S costs 4-5 times as much as a Civic Type R. They both do about the same track times - but they're not cross-shopped by anyone. There are a lot of silly comments below this video. As for me, I'd rather have an XC40 EV
Wise...sure a taycan is expensive...it is a porsche..performances are not the only reason for prices, just look at a Nissan Gtr prices and a Ferrari ones
honestly seems over done are 5 screens really necessary. Feels more cringey than luxury. but yes the model 3's screens seems to stick out a bit to much, it was probably to cut costs though consider the model 3 is a quarter the price of this car.
Welcome Porsche to the electric revolution! I was lucky enough to sit in one of only 2 in the US during Drive Electric Week. Sadly, I didn't even think to take a selfie or get my spouse to take a picture.while I was in the car (I did get outside photos though). Beautiful car and show winner in my book (however, my Model 3 is still my thrill)
17:23 I think the battery pack has holes for the rear footwells, and that's why the back seats have good thigh support for such a low roofline vehicle. Nice touch.
Great video of a great car that never in a million years could even dream of affording. Johnny Smith is one of the best car journalists out there. Thanks fullycharged. 👍
Another excellent review, (you should do this for a living), the car sounds and looks tight, fit and finish look excellent and I love the dashboard....hey, it's a Posche!
Porshe, if you're reading this, I suggest you make raised ridges and dots on your touch screens so people can use muscle memory to find their buttons without taking their eyes off the road. That will probably further help differentiate your product vs others and be a major help in reducing accidents. Right now, I still see many people not liking those touch screen buttons, no matter how futuristic they feel. Just coz it's an electric car, doesn't mean you have to cover it with screens to make it competitive. It makes you look insecure, but props to you for making the car look take a traditional cal overall, and a very good looking one at that.
Superb production and filming, best FC vid yet. Well done to passenger, deserves a credit at the end. Anyone else think the Taycan looks like a 1990's Mazda MX 323?
What are you guys on? Six videos in a week! Outstanding. Keep it up please. That car looks great. Interesting to see how the various manufacturers are wrestling with how to blend physical buttons with touch screens, and the ergonomics of the future car. I suppose some kind of consensus will emerge eventually.
Great review, I especially appreciate the details on the driving experience vs ICE Porsche. The details on the interior helpful after it being held secret for so long.

Oh. Ok....Directed to me, or someone else?
I have no problem having a little friendly repertoire. LOL
Another excellent review, (you should do this for a living), the car sounds and looks tight, fit and finish look excellent and I love the dashboard....hey, it's a Posche!
Porshe, if you're reading this, I suggest you make raised ridges and dots on your touch screens so people can use muscle memory to find their buttons without taking their eyes off the road. That will probably further help differentiate your product vs others and be a major help in reducing accidents. Right now, I still see many people not liking those touch screen buttons, no matter how futuristic they feel. Just coz it's an electric car, doesn't mean you have to cover it with screens to make it competitive. It makes you look insecure, but props to you for making the car look take a traditional cal overall, and a very good looking one at that.
Loved the cinematography!
I thought that was an excellent video. Very informative.
Superb production and filming, best FC vid yet. Well done to passenger, deserves a credit at the end.
Anyone else think the Taycan looks like a 1990's Mazda MX 323?
I like the green one
Imo 🟦>🟩>⬜. Haven't seen red yet though.
I'm sorry but that digital driver's display is gorgeous. It's absolutely lovely and the best looking driver's display by a long way
Gorgeous Porsche ❤️
The most impressive part of this video is your music selection - Roxy Music Avalon! Well done Jonny.
Absolutely the car / great episode and awesome how you showed the car looks like in a daily use/
Masterfully executed production, this review. Props to the editor!
I love how a comfortable, practical 4-door electric sports car now humbles the performance of most ICE supercars that cost 10x as much :)
How does it?
Really well made video. Lots of information, and at the same time good entertainment. Lovely car also!
Must get my Euro Millions lotto ticket before 7.30 tonight!
I recently bought my first lottery ticket in many years after visiting a Porsche store and sit in a Taycan.
Huge upset, I did not win.
If ypou won the lottery why not drive a real Porsche Turbo? No need to worry about range anxiety
What are you guys on? Six videos in a week! Outstanding. Keep it up please. That car looks great. Interesting to see how the various manufacturers are wrestling with how to blend physical buttons with touch screens, and the ergonomics of the future car. I suppose some kind of consensus will emerge eventually.
Cant wait to see it in person!
Great review Jonny. Really enjoyed seeing the functionality and usability of the Taycan. Looks fantastic!
"I'm 6'3'', I don't know what that is in new money." 🤣
Best Taycan video I've seen thus far - very well done, across the board.
2:12 Jonny sensibly moves his sunglasses to his leg this time to minimise launch effects.
Best Porsche I've ever seen
Just configured all the specs I would want and added another 20 grand, ouch.
Sounds pretty normal for a Porsche 😁
Model 3
Get a used one in two years and you could probably chop 50 grand off the price
@@Adam-lz7sr I don't know, this is the first Porsche EV. It might hold to it's price even used
Great review, I especially appreciate the details on the driving experience vs ICE Porsche. The details on the interior helpful after it being held secret for so long.
Just went on the Porsche UK website and 'expressed an interest'.
You guys beat Alex at the trunk test! Nice... Great overview man. Keep up the good work!
Scary at times as you are not watching the traffic while describing the car :)
the car is keeping you at safe distance, right?
This could be your best video yet!
Brilliant, well done and keep up the great work.
👏🏽 👏🏽
Johnny, it seems you can only fit one nutcase into the boot. I couldn't resist it sorry.
Great review Johnny! I think the Taycan is one of the most exciting cars in production today.
The "Turbo" badge is a stupid idea. I saw that and thought, despite everything I had read, that this MUST be a hybrid.
The sound is out of this world.
Fantastic video. Very well put together and very informative. Good stuff.
9:33 "look at the girth on that" That's what she said!
Great video Jonny other youtubers could learn a lot from you. Nice unbiased look at the car
