Porsche Taycan Turbo GT | Insane Future of Performance Cars

Рет қаралды 134,836

Күн бұрын

We drive and the discuss the technical changes that make the new Porsche Taycan Turbo GT one of the fastest vehicles they ever made. Updates to the drive motors, batteries and suspension showcase future technology to make its way into many other cars. With a higher price tag, and higher depreciation it makes this a far more risky buy over a traditional 911, 718, or even cars like the Corvette Z06 or Eray. Others to consider are Lucid Sapphire, Tesla Model S Plaid.

@@JStryker7Interior space difference between the Porsche and Lucid is bonkers, if you've never been in a Taycan, it is really small for the footprint, opposite of a model S or Lucid or Rivian, all EVs with excellent packaging. In addition, Rivian has a much more advanced rear drive motor(s), and the sapphire does without the complication of porsches single motor/transmission/e-lsd rear end by just using two superpowerful motors with ratio high enough to still hit higher top speed than the Taycan GT. Also, also. Lucid has not even made a super aggressive track pack type of car yet. I'd be interested to see their answer to the Turbo GT.

Jack, would you rather drive that track in the Taycan or say a manual Miata/GR86?

The editing is one of the reasons why I watch this channel.

Is that Jack’s girlfriend at the end? 😉

@TheWiredX Ай бұрын

Seriously though who is that. Surprised that they never mentioned her or put her in the description/credits.

It was refreshing to have her at the event dinner in Mark’s place.

I really hope when they do an EV 911, they *don’t* listen to people about range. Just do 150-200 miles of range and keep the car as light as possible.

Definitely.

@ShaiyanHossain Ай бұрын

there wont be an ev 911. porsche has committed to keep the 911 ICE in some way for as long as they can into the future

@almac9203 Ай бұрын

@@ShaiyanHossainthey said they will do the 911 in hybrid until they can get more emotion into an EV version or until regulations force them to go EV

How does this suspension compare to McLaren's cross linked hydraulic one? I know that that consumes less power as it runs off 12 V vs this which consumes up to 34 bhp.
