Three months after the delivery of Taikan|About actual usability and charging environment.
Published on: 2024.05.12
I apologize for all the talk about electric cars lately...but I mean to talk about Taikan again.
It has been three months since the Taikan was delivered.
The distance traveled is approximately 4,500 km.
Even though I drove about 1,000 kilometers just to and from Fuji Speedway in March, I think I'm doing better than I thought I would. To be honest, I think "I've been running a lot more than I thought I would.It's only been 3 months. I feel like I've been on it more.I have the impression that the "I'm not a fan of this".
So far, there are no malfunctions or problems with the taikan.
Once, there was a problem that the navigation screen would not display, but after going to the dealer, turning the power off and on for a while, it came back on with no problem. According to the owner of the Taikan, this seems to be a common problem with Taikans.
The charging environment, which had been a concern before delivery, proved to be no problem with the 100 V regular charging facilities at home.
I am about,I drive about 200 to 250 kilometers per week, and a regular charge at home is sufficient for that kind of mileage.(Currently, our Taikan displays that it can run about 380 kilometers on a full charge. (Currently, our Taikan displays that it can run about 380 km on a full charge.)
If you travel long distances of 100 to 200 kilometers every day, a quick charge is a must, but for work and neighborhood driving, there is no problem at all.
But recently, Tesla has decided to come to our home,Let's install 200V regular charging at home.As it is called "a", I cannot charge it at home due to construction, but I can go to the dealer once a week and charge it for 20 to 30 minutes (about $2,000).
My husband also told me that if you set a quick charging facility as your destination in the navigation system, you can have the system warm up the battery according to the time of arrival and control it so that it can be charged at the maximum current from the start of charging. (Pre-conditioning)
Indeed, setting this up will result in a totally different initial output at the start of the charge, resulting in a shorter charge time. (since charging is charged by the hour)
In fact, the Panamera that I had before often got 4.0 km/l (it did not show anything below 4), and I had to charge the battery at a gas station about twice in the month when I drove it a lot.
It has been almost 7 years since I started this blog. I have had the privilege of driving many different vehicles, but so far, I have found that the TaikanHow I use it now, what I want.He feels that he fits best in "the
Of course, as lifestyles change, so do the cars that fit, so I may be saying something different in a few years, but at least for me right now, the Taikan is the best.
Taikan is perfect for me right now.
What exactly does it mean that Taikan fits my current usage fit?
The car can carry three children (10, 7, and 3 years old), and they can sit comfortably.
(When I was in the Carrera T, it was cramped! (When I had Carrera T, it was too small! (When I had the Carrera T, I was complaining that it was too small and noisy!)
... shopping at the local supermarket and picking up and dropping off children, but "I'm not a big fan of theThe engine is not warmed up yet, so should I let it run a little longer and go home?You don't have to worry about things like that (laughs).
Even though they are cool looking, I get excited every time I see them.
. parked in the parking lot, turned around several times and said, "My car is so cool!The "I'm so happy" and "I'm so happy" are blissful times to be in a relaxed mood.
I have more and more opportunities to travel back and forth from my home to Osaka City for work, and the car has the athletic performance to drive comfortably and leisurely on the expressway.
The acceleration is tremendous, so it is fast as soon as you step on it. Or rather, it is fast even though you are not stepping on the pedal. No stress at all when merging at high speeds or when the need arises.
When I write it down like this, I guess I am pretty greedy.
A lot has been said about Taikan about the size of its body, but lately I don't care much about it anymore.
I think it is also significant that our house is located a little far from the city (parking lots at nearby supermarkets and other places are quite large),The other significant factor is that the children have grown up.
I used to have quite a lot of opportunities to go to the pediatrician and sometimes had difficulty parking in the narrow pediatric parking lot, but recently my children have grown up and have almost no colds anymore, so I have fewer opportunities to go to the pediatrician. Recently, however, my children have grown up and have not caught any colds, so I have not been going to the pediatrician's office for several months.
For the children's dentist and dermatologist, we used to go a little far away, but now we have found a good place nearby, with a bigger parking lot.
Also, until now, we used to go to the conveyor-belt sushi restaurants that the children loved so much, and it was very difficult to park in many places with small parking lots, but as expected, the children have grown tired of conveyor-belt sushi (such as not winning the gacha-gacha, the prices have gone up recently so they are quite expensive...), so we no longer go to such places either. We stopped going to such places.
Also, sometimes parking in tight parking spaces is easier than one might think because of the 360-degree monitor (the optional rear-axle steering may be a big factor).
Also, our Taikan is a cross-turismo and off-road package, so it has a higher ride height than a regular Taikan and there is less risk of scraping the underside of the car.
Also, the car tax was lower than I expected.
25,000 yen.
Well, it is not "cheap! Compared to the 65,000 yen car tax that my husband had received...we are still grateful for the electric car.
Taikan is fun to ride every day.
If I may say so, in a parking lot in Osaka City,The only thing I can think of is that sometimes they refuse to let me park there, and that the tires wear out fast.
The previous tires were replaced with new ones when the car was delivered, but even so, the grooves are wearing off quickly and it looks like they will have to be replaced once a year. I am afraid that the cost of tires is going to be expensive.
The Taikan is a fun and comfortable Porsche that can be driven every day and is fun and comfortable in town and at low speeds.
It is certainly not a sports car that is "stimulating" or "enjoyable to the senses," but it is comfortable, rides well, has excellent driving performance, and is fun to drive every day, which suits me now.
I haven't been away much lately, but I'd like to get away again somewhere this year, maybe on a trip to take on the recharge challenge.

It's already been 3 months since you bought Taikan? That's fast.
As a fellow Taikan member, I am glad to hear that you like it so much!
I had my first inspection in February and so far I am very satisfied with my car and have no plans to replace it. (Well, partly because my children are growing up and it costs a lot of money.)
The problem is that the tires are consumed too quickly!
I hope to see you again at some event.
See you then.
Ingenieur.
Thank you!
Yes, three months already.
I love it so much. I wish I had bought it sooner.
So the car was inspected in February!
As you say, there is no reason to replace it...and I would like to keep driving it too,
I am nervous about changing tires, but I want to keep riding!
Please keep them coming!
