The taycan and tesla have similar interior style. This car also has screens everywhere as a focal point just like Tesla pioneered it 10 years ago. The only difference I see is the materials are better on a Porsche, but the UI and software are much better in the Tesla. You still have to deal with lots of screens instead of one main screen in a Tesla.
