I considered purchasing a Porsche Taycan, but the story that I stopped at the end.

Porsche Taycan

Would you like to switch to Taycan?

The other day, the person in charge of the dealer said, "How about Taycan by transferring from Cayenne?I got a call.

There is a Cayenne E-hybrid in my house, but the back seat of the Cayenne is very wide and I love running, so "You don't have to change trains ...However, for the time being, I was asked to send me the specifications that seemed to suit my home with the new stock car that I have now.

Looking at the specifications sent by the person in charge immediately, "Base grade, body color is crayon, with fixed panoramic roof, sports design package equipped car etc ...It was a very cool Taycan.

My husband also did this

"This Taycan is really cool! If the trade-in price of Cayenne is good and various conditions are good, you may think about it."

I became enthusiastic and decided to go to test drive the Taycan again in order to positively consider purchasing.

Taycan and Cayenne E-hybrid

As conclusion,The purchase of Taycan stopped at the end.. The reason is that "We love the Cayenne E-hybrid that we have at home so much that the Taycan never surpassed the Cayenne when considering the couple's driving preferences and usability."

I tried the Taycan, and the driving and riding comfort were very good, but more than that, the Cayenne E-hybrid is too versatile.

When comparing Taycan and Cayenne, Taycan was unquestionably cool in terms of design. Although I've become accustomed to it a little lately, it still has a sense of the future and creates an atmosphere of an extraordinary sports car.

In addition, theThe ride quality of the city ride is the best.

I haven't driven so many Porsche and cars, but at least it was by far the most comfortable car I've ever had.

The current Panamera and Cayenne are also comfortable to ride,Taycan is by far the best.Rather than having a soft ride like a luxury sedan, it has a strong feeling of ground contact like a sports car, and it feels good to run in a transcendent flat so that it sticks to the road surface.

I wondered if there were no people in the world who didn't like this ride quality.

On the other hand, regarding the interior space of the car, compared to the Cayenne E-hybrid,The back seats felt narrow and low (naturally compared to SUVs ...)I'm 160 cm tall, but when I got on the back seat and tilted my head a little toward the window, my head got stuck (the test drive had a panoramic roof).

If you are switching from Panamera or Macan, you may not have felt such a big difference, but it is undeniable that if you are accustomed to the size of Cayenne, you will feel narrow.

Also, in the case of my home, the third child is still one and a half years old and needs to load a large child seat, so I felt that Cayenne was better.

Base Taycan's running, etc.

Also, I felt unsatisfied with the acceleration on the highway.

IThe Taycan I tested before was the Taycan TurboSo, I experienced a tremendous acceleration that seems to warp beyond space-time.After all, electric cars are amazing!I was very impressed.

Compared to that, regarding the base grade that I tried this time, "In this case, the acceleration of Cayenne E-hybrid is faster.It was an impression.

... No, the acceleration of the base grade Taycan is fast enough and wonderful.

However.As for the Cayenne E-hybrid, if you step on the accelerator, it will accelerate without putting a haircut, it will not feel heavy and it is really fast and comfortableSo, if I didn't know the acceleration of this Cayenne E-hybrid, I would be fully satisfied.

Also, regarding the motor sound. This test drive is an optionalIt was an individual without a Porsche electric sports sound (like a motor sound production).

So it was generally quiet,It's more fun to feel a little more uplifting when accelerating or stepping on the accelerator.I was talking to my husband. However, it seems that this Porsche electric sports sound can be added later.

After that, considering the trade-in price of Cayenne and the charging environment, it is still better to keep Cayenne now.If you are thinking about replacing this Cayenne, the option to switch to the Cayenne E-hybrid after the minor change is more realistic.It was decided.

My husband, by the way.

If I buy a Taycan, it's not a transfer from Cayenne,Transfer from 911 Cabriolet (Type 992)I wondered if that would be the case. But in that case, I would like to ask Taycan for a little more power, so I wonder if Taycan 4S is good. From 4x4, I think I'll have a little more power on the highway.

He said.

My family often travels long distances with my family, so if the charging environment is set up in Japan a little more, purchasing Taycan may become a reality.

    Taycan is good, isn't it?
    However, it is difficult to purchase it.
    I know it's good, though.

    Someday, that kind of era will really come. .. ..
    If that happens, there will be no manual cars.

    I'm addicted to a manual car right now.
    Anyway, it's fun.
    (Although the performance of the car has helped me a lot)

    I want to go to Ashi! I think
    Will you accept even the first Ningen?

      Oh yes!!!
      I'm addicted to the manual car, even though I think it's going against the times (laughs).
      I really admire Porsche's MT car as my favorite car!

      Ashi is all warm people, so
      I think you can talk to me in a friendly way ^^

      It seems that there aren't many sports cars on other days.

    There is a statement that "Cayenne never surpassed Taycan", but the opposite is true, isn't it?

    Hello.

    If you have small children like Mina's family now, I think Cayenne is definitely better!

    I used to ride a Cayenne (958 type), but it was very convenient when the children were small because of the large load capacity.

    You can load strollers, play equipment, tricycles, etc. In the summer, there are also floats and large dolphin floats.

    When I went home to my wife's parents' house during the summer vacation, I sometimes loaded two 16-inch bicycles and a 14-inch bicycle for children.
    (I removed the basket to stack it up)

    I think it's good that Taycan is looking forward to it again.

    I look forward to working with you on Sunday.

      Thank you!
      After all, having a large load capacity is really useful when the children are small ...!
      I'm looking forward to Taycan a little further, and now I'm enjoying Cayenne ^ ^

      It looks like it's going to be sunny this Sunday, I'm looking forward to seeing you!
