This is the second time that the Porsche Taycan has been experienced, a year ago the Taycan 4S was experienced, and this time it is an entry-level version without a suffix. Although there are certain options for the high-end trams that have been born in the past two years, if the positioning is not supported by the brand premium, it will inevitably become a "concept car" in the end. In the era when BBA's trams have become "miscellaneous cars", I don't know if you have a feeling that wanting to buy a relatively expensive model is even more entangled than a people-friendly car.
The essence and brilliance of Porsche are based on the 911, which also makes products other than the 911 give a lot of keyboard warriors the boring fun after dinner, fuel vehicles are like this, not to mention the Taycan electric car. The product power of Porsche in the era of fuel vehicles is obvious to all, the arrival of Taycan is somewhat quiet, the intelligent configuration that belongs to the current mainstream has almost no feedback on this car, Porsche's own proud mechanical literacy has been replaced by batteries and motors, as for power, in this era when more than 200,000 can buy 3 seconds of acceleration, expensive products such as Taycan also seem to have no advantage. So the question is, is the Taycan a luxury for female friends or a product that is worth buying with money?
Everyone's understanding of sophistication is certainly different, but when most people have a sense of unanimity, there is no doubt that this is a successful product. Let's put it this way, when the Taycan appears in front of you, it is still easy to interpret the sense of 1 million déjà vu, because everyone knows that it is Porsche, and everyone knows that the 911 and Parmei are more than a million cars, which is better than the Mercedes-Benz EQS. Of course, such an example is somewhat inappropriate, but I just want to say that the Taycan has something to offer in terms of face.
The smooth proportions, crisp lines, and exaggerated athletic posture are liked by everyone and Mr. Lei Jun. It not only retains the classic frog shape of the Porsche 911, but also has the charm of a GT sports car like Pame, which is hard not to like. The body length of 4963mm does not look slender on the real car, but it looks quite compact, and the wheelbase of 2900mm allows the rear row to "sit normally".
The color scheme of the test car is:"Mellow Coffee Brown Metallic Paint"., The optional cost is 10,200 yuan, and the ideal color matching option is also 10,000 yuan, so this ** is still acceptable? It is worth mentioning that this color scheme is a little pink under the sun, and straight men are prone to social fear. In addition, the blackening of details such as doors and windows also costs money, and the electric folding of the rearview mirror costs 2800.
Although the four-point headlights are Porsche's family-style design language, the Taycan's headlight clusters are connected to the longitudinal aerodynamic openings, and the size of the headlights is not large, and the four-point LED daytime running lights are made into a horizontal shape. This version does not come standard with matrix beams, and the dynamic lighting system is available, but it is a castrated version, which can automatically switch between high and low beams and adjust the lighting range, such as cornering assist.
"Reinterpreted in a modern way".This is Porsche's official description of the Taycan's interior. Compared to the gasoline models currently on sale at Porsche, the interior of the Taycan does look more technological, with fewer physical buttons and multiple screens as a popular solution. But again, if you compare it with these new power players, you will be thrown out of a few streets, and the only thing that has a role to use is carplay.
This Taycan has an option that is particularly metaphysical, the interior color of slate gray is rare on Porsche's actual car, it looks unremarkable, or cloth seats, but if you touch it with your hands, you will find that the bun has meat and is really not on the folds, the touch of suede and weaving is quite good, and this set of cloth seats is also ventilated.
The storage capacity of the Taycan is not bad, the front trunk is very neat, and it is no problem to put it in the cabin suitcase. Not to mention the chicken ribs of the front trunk, the vast majority of trams on the market do not have them, which is directly related to the layout.
Taycan is a four-seat layout, the rear space for everyone to make a reference, my height is 180cm, the leg margin is acceptable, and I don't top my head, I don't feel uncomfortable when I ride normally, it's no problem for four people to travel together, and there is also a place to put non-oversized luggage.
With the blessing of the motor, the acceleration threshold is getting lower and lower, and the conclusion that the era of fuel vehicles is generally expensive = fast has also been broken. But it's hard to imagine that the exterior of the Porsche Taycan hides a much cleaner and more polished chassis experience than an executive luxury car. The Taycan's chassis is so good that when you drive it over speed bumps for the first time, you will definitely be amazed by the vibration filtering capacity of the suspension, and the air suspension can dissolve the impact feeling super in place, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it can reach the level of a D-class car (Mercedes S). For daily driving, the air suspension is not completely filtered for the more subtle bumps on the road, and still retains some road feeling, but this road feeling is far from that of a sports car like 911, which is the kind of state that does not cause discomfort when traveling normally, and the comfort and sports are just right.
The integrity of the chassis is very strong, and the intuitive feeling is too neat. The air suspension will not only drop to the height of only two fingers in sports mode, but also the hardness of the shock absorber will also change, which will bring sufficient support to deal with the roll in the corner, because the position of the battery pack is directly below the chassis, so the center of gravity of the vehicle is undoubtedly more advantageous than the fuel vehicle can do, the precise and powerful steering can better control the front pointing, in the sports mode will appear very neurotic, any small movements of the driver can be fed back to the vehicle without feeling the delay, This feeling of being one can only be understood if you have experienced it. The only one that can make the electronically assisted steering wheel feel so real is probably Porsche.
As the subtitle suggests, having driven a Taycan 4S before and being a Tesla owner myself, this entry-level Taycan would have made me feel less than happy in terms of power. The acceleration time from 0 to 100kmh is 5In 4 seconds, the G value brought by pressing the accelerator pedal with all his might on the spot did not rise as expected, of course, this was enough to make the passengers in the car frown. For 80% of people, this acceleration experience is certainly enough, but if you have driven some trams for more than 3 seconds, more than 4 seconds, it is still easy to feel the difference.
The calm accelerator pedal setting also inherits the same feeling as the Porsche fuel car, so you don't have to worry about the strong torque of the motor making the whole car easy to drive. The accelerator pedal is clearly designed to be a "two-stage", and in normal mode, you will feel your foot being pushed up slightly when you press three-quarters of the way, and then you will experience the feeling of "full throttle". In SPORT mode, the two-stage power output becomes one section, which reduces the middle restriction in normal mode, and gives the driver 0-100% power output according to the opening of the accelerator pedal; Sport Plus is also the most aggressive mode, and the accelerator pedal has become more responsive.
Electronic sports car sound needs to spend money on optional,4600 yuan**In exchange for the actual experience, it is still worth it。 The simulated sound can not only set off the atmosphere in the cabin, but also be heard outside the car, which is valuable because it has a strong sense of reality, not the kind of brain-dead fuel car sound compensation, but by creating a roaring sound effect of the motor to highlight the acceleration process, and with the opening and closing angle of the accelerator pedal, it will cooperate to bring a full sound effect. This is also the most disobedient "analog sound" I have ever experienced.
Kinetic Energy is off by default and needs to be turned on via the buttons on the left side of the steering wheel and the "Slide" menu on the large screen. The kinetic energy ** strength cannot be adjusted, only on and off, and the braking force is simply negligible in the words of our Tesla owners. And the Taycan doesn't have a one-pedal mode.
The total battery capacity of the Taycan is 792kwh, the official also gives a net capacity, which is 71kwh. The cruising range in CLTC mode is 430km, and the actual apparent range is calculated based on driving style, recent energy consumption and other relevant factors. So you don't have to worry too much about the official standard battery life, this Taycan has a battery life of 360km when the battery is 100%.Responsibly speaking, the TAYCAN's display endurance calibration is very rigorous!
During this time, the daytime temperature in Beijing is generally 2-4, and the measured non-high-speed section (normal commuting).The remaining cruising range on the display can be almost 1:1, almost 1 km off 1 km; The use of air conditioning will switch the remaining cruising range according to the actual energy consumption, and the measured 26 2 heater wind, the apparent cruising range has changed from 350km to 316km, and the ratio of the reduced range is still 1:1. To sum up, such a display battery life calibration is very down-to-earth, and it will not produce anxiety, and it is enough to judge the actual situation according to the power of the display.
Here is a comparison, the Model Y is full of 435km, under the same temperature, the real battery life in Beijing in winter is basically about 280-300km, and the battery life is reduced very quickly, if the home does not have the conditions to install charging piles, the car will be more tired in winter. ps: Most of the home charging piles do not have protocol problems, and they are charged when the gun is plugged, so if your home charging pile does not have remote control, it will be more practical to add a lock.
Returning to the question of whether the Taycan is worth buying, if you are not interested in the intelligent car system or the configuration of the refrigerator color TV sofa, that is, you are loyal to driving, then Porsche will not let you down, this is the case with fuel vehicles, and it seems that this is also the case with electric cars at present. Taycan is still a driving machine that can get off the track at any time, but at the same time, you don't have to worry about it being uncomfortable to drive every day, except for the still very sports car sitting posture and not very elegant getting on and off the car, the whole car ride feels better than Parme. Some friends may feel that Taycan's relatively arrogant ** is really not worth it, but in terms of product experience, the "mechanical literacy" that Taycan can convey as a tram is the most extreme and highest degree of restoration among the models that have been driven so far.
