Compared with many high-end electric vehicles often 500 to 600 horses, direct to somewhat overwhelming power performance, only 326hp Taycan seems to be difficult to attract attention, but the very linear and controlled acceleration response and the solid control feedback that can be called the essence of the brand, in fact, it is more suitable as the general partner to enter the field of electric vehicles or the first contact with the Porsche brand.
Remember the last time we came into contact with the Taycan4S during the relay roundabout test drive, the on-the-go acceleration response and the dynamic performance of the tight and close to the ground allowed us to always maintain a relaxed style in the long-distance Mercedes-Benz process from Kenting to Hualien, and even after arriving at the destination, there was still some hesitation, and the excellent mechanical texture and driving pleasure were definitely worthy of the benchmark level of today's electric vehicles. However, due to the fact that the route arrangement is concentrated in the suburbs and mountain roads, we were not impressed by the Daily Driving Experience of the Taycan in the general urban area, and it was not until the test drive to the standard model that we finally had the opportunity to make up for it.
As with most of Porsche's models, the Taycan test drive light is actually not easy to distinguish the model level from the appearance, but as soon as it is launched, the metal ice plum pink car color that makes people very curious first attracts the attention, and the visual feeling seen with your own eyes is not as bright and pink as the previous official publicity photos, but presents a rather warm and layered delicate texture, which is a type that I am better looking and attractive than the photo. In addition, the test drive also uses a one-inch larger 20-inch TaycanTurbo Aero wheel, so the only way to verify the body is through the rear nameplate.
The test drive was made with a one-inch larger 20-inch Taycan TurboAero wheel, and the charging cap was also upgraded to an inductive electric opening style. The optional metal ice plum pink car color brings a particularly delicate and elegant visual feeling, and the high-tech through LED taillights are not prominent. Open the door, the same optional dark plum purple soft leather interior and metal ice plum pink car color can be described as a perfect match, while the cockpit texture will be higher, such a combination must be able to impress the hearts of many female car owners, and can be seen from the list of options.
Whether it's the convenient and practical Access Intelligent Keyless System, 360 Ambient Photography, HUD Heads-Up Display, luxurious interior mood lights, front seat headrest badge, Bose surround sound system, or the recently popular ACC Intelligent Cruise System and Blind Spot Warning, ADAS Active Driver Assistance Technology can be said to be readily available, but you have to weigh your budget level before creating the ideal configuration. The dark plum purple soft leather interior and the metal ice plum pink car color are a perfect match, which can also effectively enhance the texture and personality taste of the cockpit.
The 16.8-inch curved digital meter provides a wealth of driving information display and custom items, and the two sides integrate touch function keys such as light group and track control. The dual front seat 14-way ESC seat is comfortable oriented, and if there is a strong driving demand, you should choose a sports car with better cover on both sides to upgrade the seat.
Taycan standard model is the only one in the series to use a single rear axle motor configuration, to some extent can be regarded as the RR rear rear-drive four-door coupe concept proposed by Porsche in the past, but the 79.2kWh battery pack configuration still makes the whole car weigh more than 2 tons, driving at 326hp maximum horsepower is indeed not agile, but it also maintains a linear output style similar to the Taycan4S, and the combination of the two presents a very calm driving experience.
Because even if you switch to Sport Plus mode and accelerate out of the corner with a big foot throttle, you will not have a feeling of uneasiness that is difficult to control like a wild horse, and if you want to play the true performance of this car, you can use the supercharging mode with The LaunchControl starting control to increase the peak output to 408hp and bring a performance performance performance of 0 to 100 km/h at 5.4 seconds. Even without the blessing of pneumatic suspension, the Taycan, which is equipped with the standard PASM active adjustable suspension system, still has a fairly flexible and comfortable road texture, and the action reaction of pressing through the large and small potholes is clear and bright, excess shaking or debris into the car.
As for the handling performance, it is as solid and calm as expected, the same linear and accurate steering and braking response can also create sufficient driving confidence, the only thing to note is that due to the lack of motor load and traction on the front wheels, when entering the corner, it will slightly feel that the front of the car is not close enough, and the speed will even cause a little push head, the limit and fun may be insufficient, but it can make people develop the driving habit of really slowing down into the corner, which is also a good thing.
The Taycan comes standard with a PASM active suspension adjustment system that can be connected in the driving car mode, and also features sci-fi electric sports car sound. The Taycan's dynamic response is gentle and linear and easy to control, with solid and crisp handling feedback making it easy to enjoy driving. Compared with high-end models such as 4S and Turbo, taycan standard models are not only relatively easy to get close to the basic price, but also have a relaxed and smooth driving feeling that is more suitable for daily transportation or leisurely rides, which makes people look forward to the era of electric vehicles in an all-round way.
