I drive a Taycan Sport Turismo RWD for two years and enjoy it. depreciation only affects you when you sell your car after two or three years. Not when you keeping your car !!

That kind of car is not am investment so I am personally not worried about depreciation. I would if I was planning to keep it for 2 years or less. My Taycan is a beast and I love every second of driving it and would recommend it to everyone.

Once you get a starter charger at home you are hooked on EV's. Then when you get your second EV it's a pain. We all need to get 3phase electricity. An inverter & D.C. Charger. That's 3 times 100amp phases. Three leads & you can charge 3 cars simultaneously for 8p/Kwh. With the cheaper electricity period. 7 hours in my case. All at ambient temp when you leave each morning fully charged! Due to Electricity supply limits, only one in ten house can have 3 phase. Mine was £4K. Good investment for the future sale of the house. Maximum convenience whilst living in it!

Bought mine CPO and got a great deal on a 4S. I must say that nothing I've owned drives or accelerates like this does. I was at an event recently and was soeaking to a Tesla owner. His comment was that the Porsche drives and handles above his Tesla. Tesla is a great transportation source. However, a Porsche is an experience that puts a smile on your face every time you drive it.

As a private owner I bought my second Taycan in Jan 24. Depreciation of my first Taycan wasn't greater than the depreciation of any other big sedan like Mercedes S - Class, BMW 7 series or AUDI A8 with a combustion engine. It´s not a 911 ! Taycan is a great car - it is a PORSCHE with an electric engine, not an EV - if you guys know what I mean 😁 Have a good time driving cars you like.

And then their best selling vehicle macan is now being discontinued in the ICE version-if that happens they will go bankrupt.

I have a ‘24 GTS Spot Turismo on lease and it’s a great car. I’m not feeling the effects of massive depreciation so my journey is not as financially challenging as some. I drive it hard, I drive it around the UK and Europe and if you work with an EV it’s an easy car to live with. Will I get another………well, I’m retiring in the next few years and I really haven’t made my mind up yet. I may move into a full-fat RR whilst I have the chance!

Love my Taycan, can not fault it. Bought it on business and planning to keep it for as long as we can. Insurance cheaper than it was for our EQC

I have bought 8 Porsche’s in the past (outright). The Taycan is the last one I will buy new. The depreciation has been horrendous. Once bitten, twice shy. I will though still buy Porsche’s, just not new. Shame really, loved specing them!

The Taycan is the best looking and probably the best EV car on the market. However it is a financial kiss of death. I am in Australia and nobody wants this car. The dealerships do not want to trade one in.

First, anyone worried about price or depreciation shouldn't be buying any new car. Everything depreciates. Just enjoy what you have. Think of it like a holiday: you spend 5 to 10k per year and might not have anything tangible in return, but you have happy memories.

I have a Taycan and love driving it. Paid sticker price and despite the resale value dropping by 40% in 1 year, I still like the way it rides and drives. Good luck to all.

78k€ for a mamba 4S porsche approved is a bargain.

I drive my Taycan every Sunday with a latte - just a spirited drive. I came from a 2022 BMW M4 competition convertible. It’s a BRILLIANT car and a BEAUTIFUL experience. Very proud to own one!!

I love the car and don’t care about the depreciation, not an investment for me.

I think Porsche have got a good strategy for the future legislation, which they are being forced to do. People forget that large premium saloons always depreciated very badly. Look at all the previous BMW 7 series, and S-Class; you were guaranteed to lose more than 50%, and they were offering heavy 5 figure discounts new. Taycans are more expensive, but performance has jumped, so you can go down a model for the same performance, Turbo S to new Turbo for example. EV Macans & Caymans will do a lot better in the market.

All 2nd hand EV cars depreciate because of the rapid increase in EV car quality. It is not different with my 2017 model S I drive currently. I do drive my cars for about 7-9 years so basically I don't care if a car depreciates. I'm looking forward at the delivery of a 2025 Taycan ST turbo early next year.

I bought a new 4SST in December 23, got £23K dealer discount, claimed all the vat back and 100% year 1 write off. Got a further £750 cash towards a charger even though the car comes with a 7kW charger! and then to top it off got the highest trade in value on my trade in car compared to anywhere else. I was probably lucky on timing but for me it’s about buying at the right time and definitely through a business to mitigate the depreciation. Will be interesting to see the deals on the facelift model as I don’t believe there will be many takers given the price increases and the (now) inherent depreciation.

UK tax rules will change from end Mar '25.

Bought mine new through my business 4 years ago, big tax incentive to buy. It’s now got 44k miles and im loving it. I will keep it for long term. Keep going on the configuration and i keep building the same that i have on my drive. The new facelift is not enough to make me change.
