But point taken. Compare to a P100D. The Taycan is the same weight but way slower (by spec)
I don’t think that we’ve seen any actual performance specs for the Taycan, so we don’t know. I saw a bunch of estimated performance specs, but no actuals.

Net-net, it’s really expensive and it doesn’t have autopilot, but it looks a million times better and I’d expect it to handle better, be WAY better finished (every Tesla interior that I’ve been in felt low rent), and all that work that Porsche/VW have done making electric steering feel good will presumably also apply.

I guess we’ll find out what it’s like. We don’t know much yet.
