Cool video, thanks. Too bad there are no english subtitles, my german is limited to ordering beers in restaurants

I saw a Xiaomi SU7 at the Ionity charger one time - it was a press/demo car or something like that. It looked impressive and the guy driving it claimed it was very close to Taycan in terms of driving impressions which I find very hard to believe.

thank you! on ipad and iphone there are english subtitles! I watched it with them. You just klick at "CC" (on the ios device a bit longer) and choose translation. On PC klick the litle wheel and go to "auto translate" and choose any language.

Thank, I'll check this out. I'm planning on going back to Taycan next year TBH and was curious about the SU7.

Taycan drives phenomenally well, I did a long business trip two weeks ago with the newest Cross Turismo. It was like 911 but EV. I was surprised by a couple of things though:
- how much you can still hear EV motors compared to Macan - it was the case with last gen Taycans and it was not improved much
- energy consumption was not that much different compared to Macan
- the PCM was still very outdated and slow to interact with

Besides that it's super cool and active ride is next level.

That's funny! Just yesterday, I took a 300 km test drive in the Tourismo Turbo Taycan. I also had the idea of switching. My PC made me a great offer: a fully configured Turbo 2025 with Active Ride, HUD, etc., with 10,000 km for 159,000 (instead of 229,000). But I decided against it. Apart from the fact that the Taycan is super cool, just really special, I don't like the seating position. The distance between the seat and the floor is too small for me. The big selling point is, of course, Active Ride! But I'd rather wait for the Cayenne...
ps: best ride for macan is “low”. no more wobbling..

I wouldn't touch one of their cars with a barge pole.

every video on that channel is the end of the world... you probably shouldn't take their word for it...

Well based on my experience with Macan I could say the same about Porsche

You can find different stories everywhere but at the end it comes down to the car itself - how well it drives and what are the chances you'll get a lemon.

Yes, it’s non-stop doom and gloom. But the problems with the cars are real.

I get what you're saying about the seating position. For me it was ok, the getting in and out was less comfortable and Active Ride helps with this. Cayenne will drive like an SUV there is no way around it. Macan in "low" mode drives better then most other sedans so it's great this way but I doubt you will be able to have that with Cayenne. Maybe?
