The Taycan is the sexiest EV ever

Second only to the Rimac Nevera in my mind, which I'll never be able to afford! And which of course does NOT come in a wagon variant!

The furry petrolhead dilemma....

Going from a Cayman to this, nah, this is everything I want in a car! Granted it's a bit more effort and planning to track it, but I kept up with a GT3 in this thing!

Only that it has no engine...but that is just a matter of personal preference. I won't doubt its speed though, if electric cars are anything they really are fast, so I bet you could keep up with a GT3. It is indeed beautifully designed, and beautifully drawn by Raf.

I take it that you are a Porsche lover then?

No engine but two motors and a two speed gearbox on the rear axle! The fun is stealthier too, haha.

Having done track days in a Cayman GTS (and some autocross years and years ago with a Genesis Coupe 3.8, and a little in my mate's RX-8 R3), I REALLY enjoyed taking this thing around PIR and Pacific Raceways - it genuinely reduced my anxiety not having the engine noise, and it was helpful to be able to hear what each tire is telling me. Plus it's just neat to be doing 140 and only hearing the wind

I did keep up with that GT3, though the GT3 didn't have to stop after 25 minutes to cool off its battery and recharge, that's still an advantage for a tank of gas over a big battery. But it'll only get better from here!

I do dig Porsche a lot, though I still have never been in a 911, let alone driven one - though I do think the Cayman is __on paper__ a more balanced sports car, I'd still LOVE to drive a 911 someday!

Hope you do get to drive one someday and test out the legend of the 911 yourself.
As a person who isn't even old enough to drive yet, I am a little jealous hehe.
Overheating under extreme working conditions is be another thing EV manufacturers must overcome one day, looks like.

20-30 minutes of continuous hot lapping does get the battery to its thermal limit, yeah, but that's also most of the battery used at that point anyways, haha. For sure they're working on that sort of thing though.

We'll see what they come up with in time

Nice

It could be adapted for paw/hand control like for disabled people? ;)

Yesss, feral assistive devices would be an awesome art subject <3

Yep, it definitely would!

If the penguins in Madagascar can do it, everybody can do it! 😎

You've stumped me on what racetrack this is. I've got no clue

Haha, this is the staging area of the Portland International Raceway!
