Was trying to figure that out as well. Turns out that the 4S (and below) has more room than the turbo due to a smaller motor (i think). Think its 14 cubic feet plus a 3 cubic foot frunk for 17 total. All the info on the model 3 i found seems to list it as 15 total, so am guessing the trunk alone is about 12-13? Surprisingly, the 3 series now has a 17 cubic foot trunk (was curious so did a quick google search).

Yeah I think the f30/80 trunk is only 13 cubic feet. I’m guessing the Tesla’s flatter floor and wider opening helps as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

It’s a lot more interesting to me than a Model S, but I can’t see wanting to spend that much on an appliance.

Electrify America has a station in Round Rock... These really need to be between cities, not necessarily in cities.
Other networks and independent locations tend to cover the cities. Looks to be ~20 of them in the broader Austin area (Round Rock to a bit south). Some of those are at car dealerships (including one at a Harley dealer...), so not necessarily usable...

From all the reviews I've watched and read, it does seem like Porsche has managed to create something that "gives the fizz" and not just another EV appliance. To me, the most interetsing one I watched was a reviewer who specializes in doing range reviews of EVs (not sure how i even ended up watching it). In his Taycan 4s review he was doing a boring "range test" but then at the end started to have some fun with the car. He was like "i'm not a car guy and I'm not rich but I really want this car. There's just something about the way it drives". He owns a Model 3 performance, so he's used to fast EVs. Plenty of mainstream car reviewers seem to be equally enthusiastic about it as well. Personally, I haven't driven one yet so not sure how i'd actually feel about it but it does seem like Porsche may have done this very well.
