Yes. 150 miles in the Tesla and 400 in the taycan plus a Porsche driving experience in the taycan in Atlanta. The Porsche is significantly nicer inside and is a better feeling car overall. The Tesla feels cheap for the price (more so than even Audi) but it has the non idiotic charging. Unless you are using super chargers every day I would spend more on the taycan.

I own a v90 recharge, so I’ve turo’ed heavily in that price bracket before making the choice on a PHEV which better suits my needs.

Taycan is nicer inside and has a better feel driving but overall the Tesla wins me over. The space for my family, charging network, accessing everything on the screen, self driving and just Tesla’s software overall, I think it really out does the Porsche
