  • This time two £120k EVs boasting 4 seats, 200 mile plus range and over 650hp go head to head. The Taycan blew everyone’s socks off when it appeared last year, but we’d expect nothing less from Porsche. However, Audi also know how to build high quality, blisteringly fast, sports cars. In Part 1 we assess road manners. The presenters pair up in one car, then the other, to choose a winner. Watch our brand new series, in full, via Discovery+ www.discoveryplus.co.uk/show/...

    The Audi is simply designed to be less than a Porsche. They will NEVER handle as sharply as a Porsche. The race was over before it began. I'd still choose the e tron GT, though. Arguably a slightly better value, and they, ironically enough, are much more rare than the Taycan, at least where I live.

    This is why you have 90k views and only 1.2k likes. Really tried to upswell the Porsche. 1. two different drivers 2. Brake test not measured from the same spot 3. Didn’t put the Audi in race mode on the track. I was in both. For the money and looks I chose the RS etron GT. I got mine at a good price with the glass roof and options brand new for the price of the base Tycan plus model.

  • @ufo734
    @ufo734 Před rokem +3

    Not a great test. If you knew that you had only partially disabled the driver aids, then why not do the race again with the ETron GT in full race mode? Also, 2 different drivers? Why not just use one driver to test both cars for the lap time, that way the test isnt affected by one person being a better driver than the other. Really, this was a pretty silly and badly done test all in all.

    That brake test does not make sense, it should be tested from the same speed, and same point of starting to brake - and measure the distance. That way you will know if you will hit the "" from the same point of seeing it. For example, we know that from 60 mph, that sub 30 metres is excellent, 31 m is good, and 35 meters is average.

    What about the elephant in the room? - the Taycan battery damaging, cheap, onboard charger issue? Reports, especially from a Porsche whistle blower and others, seem to confirm that Porsche continue to ship around 60% Taycans with this built-in problem. As reported by The Electric Viking - Sam Evans recently.

    • @peterhammer4644
      @peterhammer4644 Před rokem

      never heard of that issue. I have had a Taycan for 19 months and do know several owners. The biggest problem is the software on the PCM but it became much better after the new software was installed. Another problem is the Webasto manufactured heater, which tend to cause problems.

      His voice over was not done when they were on the track. I honestly believe they should have went back at a later date and let the F1 driver do the track with both cars. I don't have a dog in the race but can see that this "VS" video was full of opinion and flawed data. Having said all that if I were to own either car I wouldn't be racing with it. Plus I would never buy a car based on another person's opinion. I just wanted to see how cool the cars looked in this video, haha.
