Once again, Thomas’s copilot looking stylish!
=)
10:53 Has Thomas been writing his script notes on his passengers legs? 😁
ahaha =)
Thomas has it all, he got wheels & he got heels 💃💃💃
By far the best car reviewing channel on youtube
LOVE this color on the Taycan. I still think I'd go for the 4S, but one of these with the big battery sounds like a near-perfect package.
Cool to see the interior lights through the tunnel
Great review, luv that colour. Beautiful.👍
Thomas, great review. Just a note at 3:48 you can simply tap on the 16.9km/min and it will toggle to show kW rate on that display.
Thomas making me wish that I was his co-driver. The guy be making co-driving fun. Literally flinging the co-driver around via G-force and saying, “Like that?” 😅 Only Thomas can make feel as though I am going to die and be safe, simultaneously. 😂
:-)
Thanks for another thorough and concise review.
I love this entry level model. I even think the smaller wheels and higher profile tires look fantastic.
Great review, as always!
Glad you had fun in that thing. Sweet car.
Gorgeous car and great review!!
Love it.... the presentation, the car, pleasure to watch the reviews by Thomas 🙂
🙏🙏
Superb review !! Love the Taycan model !!
cheers!
Love the stockings 😍
Love the Taycan, great review Thomas.
cheers Mark !
Excellent, just what I wanted to know. Minded to test drive the basic one, concerned about charging points through Europe to Italy?
Great review! I learnt some interesting points
thanks keep joining us :)
@@autogefuehl sure will :)
RWD with the big battery is a tempting combination.
Is the instrument cluster now coverd ?
Is this cherry red taycan with glossy or metal window trim?
I’m digging into this EV really need to drive one myself
Thnks for the review :) The 4S is not 4x sec to 100, its between 3.6 - 3.8 in all launches. After having driven both the difference to RWD is monumental. Especially in the torque, the RWD takes some time "thinking" before it launches from a roll.
good review, can you review the vw arteon r shooting brake? can't wait to see it on your chanel 🙈👍
Yes of course we will do that very soon! I ll be getting that vehicle next week. Arteon R first though, the sedan.
Ah yes I have been waiting for the Thomas RWD Taycan review! Gonna settle in and watch!
enjoy!!
Nice job on the review.
Thanks 🙏
Thomas, who is the lovely lady sitting next to you??? Good for you!!
thanks Harry =)
Er, Thomas... You didn't answer the first part of Harry's question.🤔🤭
@@autogefuehl And is she wearing an animal skin mini skirt or recycled materials? 😝
G-spot or g-force meter? Good review as always.
Very good video👍😃😁 I love Porsche Taycan 😍 I wait for test Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo 🚗
Yessss we did the shooting today and I can tell you the video will be amazing! Airing next week.
@@autogefuehl Please premier it again, makes it easier to plan the dinner or tea time :-D
Great review. A very desirable car.
Nice stockings bro! 😂 I hope she is more than just a date. 😇
Perfect 😍
Could you please make a video on how you would spec the base Taycan? I’d like to know what you consider a “must have spec”.
Dang it! Thought your 992 GT3 review was going to launch today! 😢
thank you Thomas
thanks for watching !
Thanks!
Looks. So. Good.
هاااي تومس انا من اشد المعجبين بك وباسلوبك الممتع والاكثر من رائع سؤالي هو ما هي المدينة التي تصور بها حلقاتك واسم الدولة ولك جزيل الشكر
Looking forward to your Taycan Cross Turismo review - it must be the best production car ever
Yessss we did the shooting today and I can tell you the video will be amazing! Airing next week.
@@autogefuehl That's fantastic - I'm looking forward to it a lot :) Is seems like it contains all you want and looks so cool. I think your reviews are the best :)
4K 60p.... Yeah 👍
Great video. I happen to have test-driven the base Taycan yesterday. Really base with few options. Must say it's disappointing and feels like an ordinary car. But I also tried a Taycan Turbo S with all options included and that one was fantastic. Nobody needs the acceleration of the Turbo models in my opinion. But if you go for a base Taycan you should pick a few options like air suspension, rear axis steering, Bose sound, nice interior etc. Then you wil have a very good car that is fast enough - even here in Germany where I see a speed limit coming soon ;-(
Thanks for the feedback!
Imagine this with an LS in it ! 😋
I prefer the exterior look of the Taycan but the Audi is better on the inside. Both are hilariously out of my price range though, I'm driving a Golf, lol. Great review as always Thomas, always a pleasure!
Does it have a Sport Plus Plus mode?
=)
How much does it cost to charge it at Ionity as a member? I see the rate of 0.79 euros/kw for non members...that is extremely expensive, it means a minimum of 14.22 euros/100km. For a Porsche owner this would not matter but for more affordable electric car this can be a deal breaker... unless you own a house and you can charge it overnight at home at lower cost.
Why is there a transmission tunnel between the rear seats like in ICE vehicles?
Because there is a so called foot Garage to avoid that your knees are in your face like in a Model 3. Means there is no Batterie bellow your feet, but instead in the Tunnel. This is why SUVs are easier to construct.
Nice review!!! I got one!!! Great car!!!
Cheers and enjoy 😊
Will you be reviewing the Q4 etron soon?
We already did: kzhead.info/sun/Z82hiryJgJ6mhYU/bejne.html And driving review soon
@@autogefuehl yes im waiting for the drive test, so excited to hear your opinion !!!
@@dntforgthis that car is literally the most inefficient electric car on the market. The new Kia/Hyundai products are light years ahead in terms of electric car technology.
@@dragospahontu thanks for sharing ur input however I’m looking for a more luxurious /premium ride as opposed efficient
@@dntforgthis get an S S-Klasse from 1995, that's as luxurious as it gets. Modern cars have lost that touch, and unfortunately that Audi is a rip off. European electric cars are behind the ball because Tesla bought GmbH a couple of years ago. Car companies no longer have the access to this brilliant minds.
Beautiful color and the lines with the low architecture profile make this a sedan just perfect. Now lets see how many coins are under the sofas cushions, cheers ......
Is the apple carplay wireless?
U can get that yeah
Nice color. I would prefer this version if I could afford one...
The only car reviewer who's still using stick mic. So classic!!!!
way to go!
@@autogefuehl can you do a session where you “drop the mic”?
ahhaha awesome
These cars are so fantastically made, and the sound that you’re hearing when his hands are in across the steering wheel that’s real leather there’s not a piece of real leather in a Tesla. You just don’t get the soul in the emotion that you do not have a car that has the heritage like a Porsche.
this colour!
Love the passenger legs! :D
Ground clearance ?
depends on if you go with standard suspension, air suspension and in which driving mode you are and if you use lift function
Very nice video, thanks! I am collecting my brand new Taycan RWD tomorrow morning, in the same colour, cherry red. So exciting! The test drive blew me away, so I placed an order immediately, but had to wait about 6 months for it to be built. I believe the waiting list is now much longer, so it will be worth more secondhand than I've paid for it. Most of the options seemed a waste of money to me. The salesman said the main option to specify, is the longer range battery, which I did. Apart from that, I chose Turbo wheels, and a few small items, but the other options are too expensive and of little value to me.
Enjoy 😊
9:43 Hold up! Nice co-driver! 🙂 Do you know where they bought that whole outfit, especially the boots? I want to go and buy. It looks super nice. 👌
amazon
I think it's his daughter, because she is a passenger in most reviews. She probably handles the camera when doing the exterior review.
@@Scythra what reviews do you mean?
@@loganstans6140 other car reviews done by Autogefühl like the Audi RS5, just naming one I remember.
@@Scythra ok. and why do you think it's his daughter? I wouldn't flirt with my daughter like that
Performance battery also ads more power. It’s about 40-60 less than standard 4S. What they need is an S model. It would fulfill perfectly the sporty need, while retaining the rwd.
I was sure the 4S would be the best tycan to pick, but after this review by Thomas im not sure anymore 😆
😅
5.4 is not that slow but my Cayenne S hybrid does the same time.
Jonas has improved a bit ;-)
ahahaha
Interesting to see this video getting so few views compared to your normal videos, is this due to electric cars still not being as aspirational as a shouty petrol engine?
Had an opportunity to drive this variant of the Taycan today. Sorry to say...I was not too impressed. Felt underpowered under full throttle . The 4S would no doubt provide the acceleration I desire. Also, I'm 6'4" and found it quite awkward to exit the vehicle when the seat is pushed back all the way. The strange gear selector seems oddly located as well. Lots of nice design features too... and I love electric mobility....but the Taycan just doesn't do it for me.
If only it can give longer range like 600 miles US. The rest is glorious! My favorite EV.
Interesting design & color ! Although imo it's kinda loosing the usual Porsche Design
What we really want to see are more babes!
Hi Thomas! A very interesting and cool review like always here! The model of the car, I mean the shape, for me it looks relatively an old model like if it was designed for the year 2004, the back looks like if they brought it from their new cars but sure it looks fake and doesn't fit with the whole shape design look! Sure this is my personal opinion, and I hope they give this car the shape it deserves! Cheers, to Autogefühl 🍻🎵
thanks my friend!
I love the Taycan, but this is not my favorite color. Mamba Green or Frozen Berry make the car more funky! :)
Nice boots of the co-pilot
Love the design though in my opinion it would look nicer in white or silver due to the contrasting black trim design elements. It looked like so much fun to drive around tight corners. Porsche has definitely not lost on their driving fun ethos even in electric...
Is this legendary car sold in Canada 👍
yes
soo.. I can beat this thing with a Cybertruck pickup? :)
The audience is greater with such a copilot.
5:03 Tok kapı sesi için gelenlere...
I still wish Thomas was my dad Great to see that you are truly in love ! These little « you liked it ? » and this face saying it aswell... Nice Nice Nice Nice !!!!!!
They fu****
👌🙂
It's a shame that one-pedal driving isn't an option on any of the Taycan models - I love the feature on my Tesla
it's a shame everything else is shit on the tesla
Love the Taycan model but tell us who the lady is she looks very stylish and perfect! is she a model? xD
While not inexpensive, I believe this model represents value for money. €88,000 euro here in Ireland 🇮🇪 That’s not much more than an Audi A7. Interestingly, given the higher value retention over 3 years, Porsche Ireland quoted me a lower monthly payment for the Taycan than Audi did for the A7. Makes sense to me to buy a Porsche. BTW, the Audi GT here starts at €102,000 🤭 so I wouldn’t even consider it!
you are in love with the lady lmao when Jonas is sitting next to you you are not that enthusiastic therefore pls more videos with the woman!
Nice video, nice car, nice legs 💃
thanks =)
Am not "tay-ken" by surprise.
Can't wait for the 6 speed transmission Taycan coupe. With a manual box.
hot passenger thomas please more with her🤩
:>
No I don't like any of electric porshe, I always love fuel engine porshe and it's sound
The EV dreamcar...
For Fun Drive Experience Porsche did this.
How do all these upcoming RWD models expect to work good as expected in snow and. Even the best latest limousines had bad usability in rain AND snow if only RWD
🤔 the cheapest Taycan will be the best 😁👍👍👍👍👍
Nice car Thomas but being a 'petrol head' I just can't get excited by a near silent car. It may be the future but it's not necessarily progress. Cost of the car and lack of charging infrastructure will be its biggest hurdles.
@Banned Again Ah bless, so true lol :-) Yea ha, where's the sugar lumps :-)
thanks Andrew! Have you tested a Taycan yet? It is a good cure for sound-missing :)
@@autogefuehl Unfortunately no, its well outside my price range but I have no doubt that it is impressive. The styling alone is great.
Ok Thomas, who is the passenger - they appear to be more interesting than the car !!
I’m looking at very cheap plastics: trunk sill, and interior A pillars. I know Porsche is part of VW, but using Polo plastic on a car that costs 5X more is not acceptable.
Design is good, Audis etron is better, the problem is the price of these cars. You can buy two - three Teslas for the price and get more range and acceleration. So obviously most people would rather choose Tesla and save a lot of money.
Such a Rimac fanboy. 🤦♂️
Hi Thomas, while we understand the importance of going electric to reduce carbon emission which i’m supportive, the car lost its “soul” making only very faint engine sound. gonna miss the petrol producing engine sound in time to come.
Looking at the speedometer at the autobahn, the car seems to slow for my taste, especially since it's a Porsche. I can see people buying it because of its price or the RWD fun on back roads, though. Just not for me.
