ive heard that alot but why is that?
@@Fuck90Percent low heat, cant be detected by police helicopters. A bit like LED spotlights vs Halogen which emit excess heat. Your house would glow like a Christmas tree on the heat camera
Porsche should enter the game at this point, overpriced Porsche branded lamps

The sales figures will be great...bolstered by existing Porsche owners buying three at a time, just to get the chance of owning a GT3 RS.
If buying a Taycan could get me a GT3 RS that's a done deal. LOL
@@venom5809 not just one, you need to buy around 10 porches in order to get the chance to buy a GT3 RS, with the dealer's markup.
You don't need to buy any previous Porsches to get a GT3 RS. it's just that it's in extremely high demand, and they're prioritising existing customers.
Trust me people love the Taycan, sure the depreciation sucks but no one expected these to hold value or appreciate, and it’s not like 99.9% of luxury cars hold their value anyway
Porsche copied Ferrari with this corruption
510 mile range? I mean, VW have never lied about their figures before...
City range - mixed is 400 and if he did 320-330 on motorways, it seems achievable.
You do realize even the older taycans exceeded over 300 miles of range even though they were advertised much lower right?
VW sold Porsche
Out of Spec got over 450miles with 4 people on board, granted they were pretty much hypermiling but seems like it should do 350miles at high motorway speeds and given the charging rate that should be more than enough for most people (that can afford it).
@@ghadeersyriac VW AG holds 75% of Porsche. Stop spreading lies on the internet.
This is only tangentially related to this video, but I saw a 911 Dakar at a dealership when I was walking through Barcelona and that made my fkn day. Such a gorgeous car.
i haven't seen one yet. someday. maybe. i hope.
@@Meatsweats_o_O Yep, recently saw one at the NYC auto show! $240K. CRAZY PRICE but I still want one!

Fastest car on the market.. ..for depreciation.
Which is great for us! Cant wait to buy a Used one in two years for a bargain.
@@atthelord i do hope that goes well for you brother cause I hear insurance for used EV's is insane 🙏
@@Khaladkar2tv oh damn! I never knew that. I’ll make sure to check it out. Thx for the heads up!
@@Khaladkar2tv it's much less for EVs than combustion cars,at least it was for me.
@@sorinelpustiu5674i guess it depends on the country - in the US some insurance companies wont even insure EV's
The Taycan Cross Turismo is my aspirational EV; it's like what my Mach-E GT wants to be when it grows up.
So, a few things. One Porsche isn't responsible for WLT range tests. No manufacturer is. Whether you like or dislike gov. MPG or range tests - they provide a basis for comparison and so are useful. The real way to measure these cars is by looking at the miles per kilowatt hour. I ignore most of the other numbers. This test got about 3.2. That's ok, it's not that good though. The math is simple enough 3.2 miles per kilowatt hour and 100 kilowatt hour battery is 3.2 x 100 or 320 range. For example Edmunds test of the Lucid got 438 miles on 118 KWH battery which is 3.7 miles per kilowatt. So Porsche is competitive here but def not best in class...yet.
But you also need to count that in such test ride like this one, he drove it hard. Testing the power, 0-60 ..etc. So, If you could be gentler, the range could be closer to the estimated one.
Also manufacturers do their own tests for WLTP. Some are conservative, some (tesla) arent...
You're right, except that you're using one data point where at least the official testing is standardized and repeated - which means you're kinda invalidating your first point. The efficiency is what matters, but over normal usage, which we don't have data for now. Therefore, the WLT gives us a basis for comparison, at least.
Values of 1st gen Taycans just dropped to 0 $ 😅
Not really, except little bit more range there is not much that would current Taycan owners make to switch. I hoped for new Android software which Macan EV has.
@@hrtlikThere’s a huge difference in range, charge time and a bump in power! That’s 3 solid reasons to get the 2nd generation. Hahaha
If so that’s the time to buy then because the first generation is still a good car for a lot less than the new one.
@@JCizzleSoCal No and I am saying this as current Taycan Turbo owner. When you see the power consumption in these reviews they are similar to old Taycans, so battery size is main factor. It is 15% larger, but you usually use like 10-85% battery on long trips so in reality it is like 10-13% larger. Charge time is like 3-5 minutes better, again it is irrelevant on long 10 hour journeys. Power bump...well Turbo is already very powerful and when I tested Tesla Plaid it was too much. You cannot use that power on roads anyway because you will be dead in 5 seconds, it is good for passing tho. It is good evolution, not a significant revolution.
@hrtlik I have a Turbo S with the carbon pack and prefer its design to the new one (well the front at least). Not much to convince me to change it, other than a bit more power (which you really don't need unless taking it to track days) and more range, which to be fair does what I need most of the time anyway (just handy for longer road trips).
Only just Headlights don't work for me.. Headlights in the previous generation was a lot better and so unique it was that they literally can be identified instantly...
...and stolen easily.
I've actually wondered how Porsche will modernise their headlights as the technology becomes better and they dont need to be these big bulbous things that look like frog eyes that Porshce has become synonymous with. Looks like they are veering that way and yep, it looks less like a Porsche
True, but new headlights looks more like other Porsche models.
@@livinagoodlife probably a lot like Tesla, sacrifice looks for lesser drag and more range. However trying to find the perfect balance between looks, identity and range is probably very important to Porsche. I feel Tesla really made it work with their new M3 Highland. The Ludicrious M3 also looks very nice. The EV Macan has great potential though as Long as it is priced reasonably.
Excellent review. Fun to watch/listen to and yet very informative also. Well done! Well done Porsche for making a great Taycan so much better.
510 miles, yeah that claim needs to be tested in the real world....
He did say in the city. It's much lower at highway speeds. I think it's believable, EVs range is much higher at lower speeds.
Considering it has rimacs tech now, which is the best EV tech in the world, it should be right up there
@@jghall00 well, just like ICE cars, electric cars should be giving City, Highway and Combined figures. Unless they already do that I'm not aware of?
@Patient_Lion_BS they do that already
@@Patient_Lion_BS most EV makers share that info.
Thank you for leaving that charging blooper, reminds me of RichRebuilds video of road tripping his Rivian
The World Record for fastest EV Charging is hold by Rimac Nevera with up to 500kw. But yes, in realistic buying range, the Taycan is the fastest.
150,000 units sold!! probably 70,000 of them were sold to people who wanted to own GT 3 cars and wanted allocations
Bro FUCK the GT3RS 😂😂 Taycan buyers wanted Taycans The GT3RS was made only for the track, a Taycan or Bentley, Rolls, Aston, AMG, etc shits on it for a luxury boss daily driver
@@hovanesmarkaryan896 what? a car that is not meant to be luxurious is not luxurious? the GT3 would slap those car in terms of performance any day of the week.
@@hovanesmarkaryan896 all I’m saying is many people were forced to buy a Taycan maybe even multiple units to get a chance at buying a GT3 RS. Dealers are shitty, nothing against the car
@@mineralwater6736 Taycan GT was faster around Laguna Seca than the 992 GT3RS and 991 GT2RS 💪🏼
@@StevenYannino one was forced to buy a Taycan to get a GT3RS. It’s not how Porsche work. There was only a small number of RS models made and most went to long term valued customers, the same all luxury car makers do. Some went to famous people for promo purposes and the rest were allocated to the top dealers to offer on a first come first serve basis. Porsche sell themselves, they don’t need to play game to shift their inventory
Nice. When are you getting Porsche Macan EV for full driving review?
The interior dash is immaculately sublime.
318 kw is insane...... Big ups to Porsche for actually achieving that.
what porsche got to do with it? Its either LG of Catl that makes those batteries. In previous version it was LG chem in Poland that made the cells.
@@hagestad It's a mixture of cell-chemistry, battery-management system, and supplier-requirements from Porsche (if Porsche didn't specify it, LG / CATL wouldn't have made it for them)
@@hagestada lot. Everyone is using CATL batteries. Most manufacturers are not hitting Porsche charging curve performance. I know people want to give praise to the Chinese company, but no no, give Porsche engineers the credit they deserve here too.
I see plenty of Taycans in Farnham, perfectly suited to the new 20mph speed limit in the town.
They're very easy to drive at 20mph. That's one of the advantages of EVs
@@adamuk73 I've genuinely seen EV's cruising at 20mph on the M6 between charging stations when they realise they have to drop their speeds to make it ...
@@PixelVibe42 20mph.. on the M6.. yeah, and Jesus bought me a beer on Easter Sunday.
@@jp6975 Sorry to break it to you, but yes I really have seen this a few times! EV's literally crawling into Warwick Services after moderate traffic and the odd delay. They were in the inside lane, hazard's on for one that I saw, another (months later) was clearly trying to reach Warwick and almost at a crawl. Cars and trucks having to avoid. Hope you enjoyed that beer! BTW how was Jesus?
Will definitely be achieving its wltp claim then.
‘It comes with a new noise” 🤔Milk float 😂😂😂
Love my new taycan! What a blessing
Why are these chargers so poorly designed, no canopy and that cable is scratching all your paint whilst you're charging!
yeah, what would happen in heavy rain?
It’s fine. Chargers don’t scratch the paint. Doh.
@@manoz6194 chargers work fine in the rain, and unlike petrol/diesel pumps, you don't have to stand there holding it... so unless they covered the entire walk from the charger to the services building, you're going to get wet regardless.
@@logicalChimp that's really not a good point since no one is going to hold a petrol pump for more than a minute or two. I just filled up my petrol car in the pouring rain, didn't get wet at all
@@manoz6194canopies are expensive. But the nice places do have them, especially if they can install solar into them. But realistically, you should only be out of your car to charge for around 10 seconds max. And the rain would probably help keep the temps down and help your charging session lol. For all the complaints about charging station issues, this is not high on my list haha
The proclaimed 510-mile range will fall even faster than this car's resale value!
used turbos s tycan is selling for around $100000 now
Mine is rated 230 or so (standard battery), and I get 300. Could imagine I would get up to 600 with this new model with my driving.
Transfer the number in miles to km and you have the realistic range, being 510 km.
Sure, there are some stupidly expensive, high-end EVs that lose a ton of money in depreciation - though, much in the same way that stupidly expensive, high-end combustion-engined cars do, too. For example, the Mercedes S350L d AMG Line Executive can be bought new for about £90,000 after discounts etc A 3 year old example with 56,000 miles sells at £38,980 = 43% residual value. A Porsche Taycan 4S can be bought new for about £86,500. A 3 year old example with 48,000 miles sells at £45,950 = 53% residual value. And, even at the 'sensible' end of the market… A brand new, entry-level VW Polo 1.0 petrol city car with an automatic gearbox can be bought for £20,712 after discounts. A 3 year old example with 56,000 miles sells at £13,244 = 64% residual value. The equivalent, brand new, 200 mile range Vauxhall Corsa-e city car with an automatic 'gearbox' can be bought for £19,795 after discounts. A 3 year old example with 41,000 miles sells at £11,690 = 59% residual value.
@@jonathantaylor1998the depreciation thing is such a meme. People don't seem to know it care much about what depreciation is and what factors go into it. 🤷
400W regen - so impressed😂
Yep that is pretty funny number , agree :)
Guess it should be 400KW
Great informative video - as usual…
harder, better, faster, more depreciation 👍👍
Having owned one and lost a ton of money like so many customers have, the thought of doing it all over again does not fill me with much enthusiasm regardless of how good it is. It wouldn’t be so bad if Porsche rewarded the original owners who helped get the first one off the ground but even the dealers don’t want them.
It is only recently that 'luxury' cars have not plummeted in value as soon as they were driven out of the showroom.
That's interesting indeed. The second hand EV market seems to have many devalued and not to say unwanted vehicles for sale.
@@madmcadder4536 I would say it’s a buyers market for second hand EV’s for sure. As a seller, it pains me to see how the original buyers have faired and I suggest many will not do it again which is why EV sales have fallen significantly.
well, you are buying a new car which counts for 30% value loss, that new car is in the luxury segment which only makes the loss more severe. now you want Porsche to reward you ? you must be english.
Customers cross shopping the Taycan with Cybertruck , will Ultimately go with Cybertruck.
Great review. It is amazing to see how quickly these EV are improving!
Nice to see they have finally caught up with the Pace from 2018 in performance and same with headlights.
nice ending music tbh wasnt expecting it, congrats on the editor!
Do you know the songs name?

Thanks for posting the song!

"why does this always happen with electric cars? You go there expecting to be seamless, and then this happens" You mean to say "why does this [always] happen with Ionity chargers? You expect them to be seamless, like Tesla's or FastNed's or MFG's or Sainsbury's (Kempower) but they are not like those" There's a reason Ionity has made a deal with some manufacturers, and it isn't because they are quality chargers. And the same can be said about GeniePoint, Instavolt, bpPulse, even Gridserve. There's a reason some chargers are better, and it really pays to avoid the shit ones so that they get their act together and change suppliers. If you had gone to a charger made by KemPower, you could have even got the charging curve in real time, and whether it was limited by the charger, the grid or the car itself.
Maybe, although in this case, as Rory said, the issue was with a previous reviewer switching the 'seamless charging' feature off in the test vehicle... once he turned it back on, it 'all just worked' as intended.
Love the range on offer with this car that at least makes it practical and more on par with my petrol or diesel car and the fill up is also better being able to charge at such a rapid rate. The only issue is for what is a four door hatch with poor styling ( in my opinion) the cost is still too much and would need to come down substantially for me to shift from a petrol car.. depreciation ring the main issue for me as this will go the same way as the previous Taycan
I heard a new Taycan was coming out so decided against leasing the current one ended up with an i4 M50 lease and hopefully in 3 years a Taycan Turbo 😅
10:15 that's why Tesla's Tesla. Software and the charging network with amazing ease.
It's ashame that no insurance company wants to insure them
Don’t believe everything you read in the trash media
That's not true, but don't let that stop you posting.
Tesla insurance will insure them
Why’s that then oh wise one
Why’s that then oh wise one
did you pre condition battery?
Love the new substation built there for the 3x chargers 😂
This is why the current value of the previous model has tanked. Saw another video of a guy stuck with his taycan as no one (even the dealership) would touch it.
Why? Why won’t the dealership touch it?
@@samwilson745 It's just not worth it for them. Nobody is buying them.
Porsche buyers like the latest and greatest...they're probably waiting for this to be released. More deals for those of us that shop 2nd hand.
My heart weeps for him 😢
If it is who I think it is, he leases his car anyway, so it doesn't matter, he will just give it back at the end of the lease deal 🤷♂️. 2nd hand, Taycans are now a bargain compared to new and still the best all round EV on the market (just don't expect Tesla efficiency on previous model).
The fastest depreciating car on the planet earth
In the UK and USA the #1 fastest depreciating cars are both ICE. Whoops 😬
how come
I charged about 10 times at Ionity with my Taycan: it did start automatically all 10 times. So it does work, if it is activated correctly. About the depreciation: it is at a normal level for a luxury sedan if you exclude the extreme expensive Turbo-versions.
Do the heaters actually work ?
The king of depreciation. Loses about $200 a day minimum.
Without the tears, it just looks like a Panamera. Goodness Porsche
I so wish I could drive that car. Looks amazing.
Love all the updates that they did proper update, hope Audi E-tron GT gets some same updates 😊❤
Beautiful work Porsche!!! Love the styling of the Taycan.
Is it a daft punk song ? Rectification. I wrot it down before hearing you saying it. I know you would open the video by the song itself. Just like i heard it.
又被推坑了 這台感覺不錯!
Don’t try to trade in your old Taycan - Porsche dealers don’t want them. If you’re lucky you might get £40k back on a car that cost £120k new.
why do they go down in value so much or people dont want them?
As if the first generation Taycan wasn't already fked by depreciation. This is the final nail in the coffin for all those early buyers.
Coffins don’t use nails anymore for ecological reasons
Tesla also depreciates like hell so stop crying like Porsche is the only one.
@@mineralwater6736I wish that was true, I can’t see any cheap Teslas
@@jsanders100 30k is not cheap for you??
Industry problem across brands: Manufacturers: Our batteries charges super fast so you can quickly charge anywhere. Also Manufacturers: Here's an extremely heavy battery with more range because actually you cannot charge anywhere in a reasonable time.
The battery got lighter than before. But I think it will take at least 10 years to achieve truly light batteries.
The lack of decent fast-charging infrastructure is a UK issue (at least, Europe has *far* better fast-charging networks, compared to the 50kW 'standard' chargers we've got at services). Also, charging speed scales with battery size (bigger batteries can charge faster), so even if they fitted a smaller battery, it wouldn't actually charge any quicker (you'd just get less range).
@@logicalChimp That's a good observation on the battery size. I meant to say that more range = more weight, which is counter productive. And as for the infra, I have tried in france and germany with some rentals and the limiting factor was the car's tech. (an ID4 and a Polestar 2). None of them maxed out the fast charger, but forced me to stay for 20 minutes with a cold bad coffee in a highway station 😅
And what about the UI? How smart is the navigation? The previous Taycan had glaring shortcomings in these areas when compared to even a Tesla Model 3.
Performance and efficiency 🎉❤
30 seconds haha……..Thought it was only the McMaster had issues lol
The thing with electric cars is that you have to read the instructions. Rory didn't did he. As for that prat McMAster...........
@@kevinashurst634to be fair, his vids are somewhat amusing and he does seem like a genuinely nice person.
I can smell the depreciation through my iPad.
why do they go down in value
I like the tint on the windshield
No Disrespect, but watching Rory's car reviews to me feel like Watch the brother Vlog. I mean I don't get an in-depth look of the car, like see what the car looks like on the inside, it's practicality but rather the video is just showing Rory driving around having fun : (
It may well charge faster but that puts more wear and tear on the life of that battery pack, nothing is all rosey when it comes to e.v's.💩
It isn't that easy. Porsche changed the battery cells to ones with more cobalt and nickel in them. This results in a battery which can handle high charging speeds and temperatures better. However both materials aren't the cheapest, so the battery is very likely a lot more expensive
Most of the time they're charged on 7kW chargers. The fast chargers are used for long trips only tbh
Test that range on long motorway drives in winter using heater and lights. Or in the summer using air conditioning. I doubt it will do even 300 miles. That’s being generous. Some of us travel long distances everyday.
It's BS and overly optimistic just like the ID7. VW never lies....
Modern EVs have heat pump and double glass windows so they are better insulated. They take heat from motors and battery and heat cabin with that. AC is not that much a problem as well since the motor is not that hot as in ICE cars. Therefore not much energy is needed for cooling.
@@hrtlik LMFAO yea right, have you never seen the tests in the winter. These cars ranges are decimated. It’s nearly as bad in a hot summer. If the motorways you are on are hilly this makes things even worse. Also Rory demonstrated the charging problems. My car does 400 miles on a motorway no matter what the weather and takes less than 10 mins to refuel. Electric cars are a gimmick and not the solution. Try imagining the infrastructure needed to recharge 10’s of thousands of cars at the same time. Even generating enough electricity would be a problem let alone transferring it.
@@classicraceruk1337 Yes, the range is worse but not because of heating or cooling but because of battery, my car is actively heating and preheating the battery so winter range is less affected. It is a part of a solution. On average car is standing about 97% time and average commute is like 30 miles. You do not need to fast charge every time, you can slowly charge once a week at home, work or shopping mall. And once you have electric car, suddenly you have much use for your solar panels and then you may change your fossil heating for heat pump as well. If as a humanity we do not stop burning fossil fuels, our grand children will have very hard time. You are not saving planet, you are saving comfort and similar life style for your descendants.
Different car but illustrates the point. My Polestar 2 in winter, pouring rain 3 degs, light wipers everything going. Used 5% of the total energy on heating and lighting over a 150 mile journey. Unless its really cold, like minus 10, winter range in the UK is about 10%. If you preheat the battery it is less.
I am excited mainly for massive depreciation on the first gen. Hopefully they dip and I can slide into the driver seat of a gen1 car.
It would be gr8 if they started retrofitting a flat 6 turbo to the old cars to make them saleable...I'd buy one then! 👍🏻😁😎
I’ll swap it for my ZX Spectrum in 12 months

That will only work if you throw in Jet Pack and a cassette deck.

@jp6975 oh I remember Jet Pack, building that rocket 😂
Came for the comments
09:12 Rory explicitly states that the 510 miles of range is from the WLTP, _not Porsche._ So, for once, the VW Automotive Group cannot be blamed for this absurd number. Also bear in mind that the WLTP gives ratings based on how the car does in their test, and _extrapolating the result._ The WLTP test route is NOT going to be like the roads people will actually drive on. If the new Taycan did exceptionally well on the test route (e.g. for whatever reason, it was better able to make use of regen etc) then that will result in a high figure. In the real world, it's unlikely this new Taycan gets anywhere near 510 miles. On a perfect day with few hills + hypermiling, getting above 350 miles deosn't sound too unreasonable based on the Gen 1 cars' endurance.
When are you going to get your hands on the Tesla cybertruck? Can't wait for your review
Don't forget "most depreciated"!
The real-world range is about 340 miles. Misleading, Rory, to use such a clickbait title.
Thank you. Source, please?
@@DrRussellKyle Connor, who extensively tested pre -production cars.
@@andrewhurstcars thank you Sir
Kyle tested it at 450 while driving at aggressively low highway speeds. That being said, a “real world” range test is not necessarily a road trip context. Most “real world” driving is very much a mix of highway and city, which means the Taycan should very much be able to hit 400-450 miles for most peoples’ real world commutes.
@@jayem8981 I don’t think 400-450 miles on a regular commute is realistic. He was hypermiling to get that. He has stated publicly that it’s a 340 mile car for normal useage.
No cordless charge pad or place for your phone??
Will it stay out of the repair garage though?
Tell me you've been living under a rock without telling me you've been living under a rock: "Porsche charging at 320kW is a world record." This isn't even funny; as a pro car reviewer, you should know that most newcomers chinese high-end brands, are charging at 450/500kW now. Even there in Europe you have the Xpeng G9 charging at 400 kW. You just never bothered to get updated about new EV tech.
Hey, now you're beginning to see how biased reviewers are. All azz-kissing, if not, Porsche won't call you back for a review.
How many miles!? Lol
Last song?
So... no conversation about the old Tycan´s reliability issues?!
Chinese electric cars like Zeekr and Li Auto can charge up to 540 kW, so it's far from record
Peak is, however, not actually relevant in real world. Porsches (and VW in general) are known for a very flat and efficient curve when it comes to recharging.
😂😂 sure buddy and who told you that china?? yeah because they would never lie.
Porsche is mobile version of iPhone, no much innovation from prev models yet unique
With far worse software
and yet the are still the best cars quality wise.
Lotus Eletre Rory has 350kw DC also,good video ,well done Porsche,can you now work Tycan depreciation?
I've never seen a test where Lotus exceeded 300kW. Still amazing though
does this mean we will be seeing an updated etron soon ?
Could you tell them to not calling it Turbo
OK... so could you tell NVIDIA`s grafic card "GeForce TURBO RTX " not to calling it Turbo 😄 😄
The depreciation machine
as any car..
I thought you all complained about EVs being too expensive... make your mind up. If you aren't happy with the depreciation just don't buy new and get yourself a bargain on the used market. Don't know why that needs explaining
@@christianolsen9781 as most cars*, but the taycan is in its own league when it comes to depreciation. I would NEVER buy an EV. Leasing is the way imo
@@mstech4314 EVs are too expensive, but I’ll still buy another one, not a Tesla though as it was a piece of junk. But I wouldn’t ever buy a 2nd hand EV over a few years old, it’s just too risky.
@thunderbug8640 to be fair everything is too expensive these days. For my situation, EVs are just cheaper to own than equivalent ICE cars. I save so much money on fuel, tax and servicing
I wonder if this model year has Maserati levels of depreciation.
Stunning piece of engineering and that range is fantastic--if the price suits you, it's one heck of an EV.
That's even more money then old Taycan customers have lost in depreciation. I suspect these things are a poison chalice.
Lets be honest though no one actually buys a taycan they just get them as company cars and bin them off at the end of the lease
Nobody wants to own an electric beetle
So of this has a really quick charge time, how does that affect the battery over time? Be interesting to know how much the cells deplete over a longer period of time.
Based on other fast-charging vehicles (e.g. Teslas), it turns out to not have too much impact. Leaving vehicles sat at 100%, constantly charging to 100% (instead of e.g. 80%), and other 'bad habits' have far bigger impact on battery health than fast-charging between 10-80%. Note that this is with similar/same 8:1:1 NMC cell-chemistries in the Tesla.
nice to see a new laser eye technology. I'm yet to find a new car where it doesn't leave you blind every time it passes you by.
Porsche always remains the GOAT !!
510 miles I smell bull shit
I can't believe it's been nearly half a decade since this car came out
Is that WLTP or EPA? WLTP is highly inflated, what is the EPA range?
Nobody cares...
You cared enough to click on this video and comment...
