Looks beautiful and am sure it is an exhilarating drive. Without doubt the best looking electric car out there.
Out of interest how much room is there in the back compared to the Macan?

I sat in the back of a Taycan CT at the weekend and would say more knee and headroom than a Cayenne. The floor where you put your feet is a little oddly shaped though so feels a bit like you can’t put your feet far enough under the seat…

I think Porsche refer to where rear seat passengers put their feet as a ‘foot garage’. Seriously. :lol:

+1. In fact, not only the best looking electric car currently, but one of the best looking cars, period. I’ve seen a few in the metal out in the wild & been really impressed with how they look in person. :)

I’ve got a CT not a saloon like the OP.
As long as the 2 in the front aren’t giants with the seats all the way back I find there is more than enough for regular adults. Just don’t try to fit 5 adults.
Wasn’t too happy when I shared my car on FB that someone on there said they had actually sat in my car to try rear space even before I had known it had arrived. Surely that’s what dealer demos are for.

Not sure about the back. I haven’t been in the back seats. Don’t think I ever went in the back of the Macan either

Very nice. I was very impressed with the CT demo we had for the day and might have gone for it except wife vetoed it on the basis that it’s too close to a sports car and we already have a 911! They don’t understand do they?

I was less impressed with with our attempts at charging at two motorway services. No doubt 99% of our usage would be covered by home charging but public charging still has a VERY long way to go yet.

I’m sure you’ll enjoy your superb new steed.

They are lovely. Plus, l was admiring a CT in the handover bay today and was assured that YES I could get my golf clubs in the back, indeed the same is true of the "saloon" 🙂.
