Video Summary
- The Lucid Air Sapphire changed the game regarding electric performance vehicles.- With EVs, especially performance EVs, one can have one's cake and eat it, too.
- Compared to the Lucid Air Sapphire, the Turbo GT has lesser range and is not better in terms of overall practicality.
- The headlights are more boring and plain compared to the previous generation of Taycan headlights.
- Charging is enhanced with the addition of motorized charge ports.
- The taillight design has been updated. It looks really sick, especially when it is lit up at night.
- New to GT: an aggressive front lip on the car.
- The B pillar is carbon fiber, instead of the gloss black plastic or aluminum.
- The side skirts are mostly plastic with carbon inserts.
- One downside is the 280 miles of range, which, for some, will lack luster.
- The Taycan’s steering is analog and creates a more satisfying feel.
- At 56% battery, the car has 140 miles in range mode (about 280 miles of range at 100% battery).
- There is not a lot of storage space. Compared to the lucid, the front trunk is only 2.9 cubic feet, compared to 10. There isn't a crazy amount of room in the back.
- The seats are comfortable, but they are only heated and not cooled.
- The dual-screen setup is easy to use, even with the slower Porsche software; can be used as a mouse pad for the main screen.
- The front lip is low to the ground, making the car easy to scrape; however, the reviewer notes that the front lip is only a $300 part to replace.
- This doesn't drive like a 911 but is similar in driving experience.
