Back on topic, not unexpected but another great data point of real world range.

But what's with that charging cost?!?!?!

Yeah. After scrolling through pages and pages, there were very few Tesla hate comments, so apparently this shows that not that many people outright hate Tesla. There were more comments expressing displeasure with the Tesla nuts, not the car. If you the Tesla nuts continue with their persecution complex, they shouldn't be surprised that people people have a negative reaction to them.

As for the cost of charging, that seems irrelevant at this point since Taycan owners get 3 years of free charging. That will be a more interesting topic in 3 years from now.

I read the comments within an hour or so of the video posting. There were probably less than 200 at that point. I stand behind the observation that I made as being relevant at that time.

I hate Tesla nuts. They make it very difficult for normal people to accept tI'm not one of them, but you can keep thinking that I am one if it makes you feel better. I know the truth so it doesn't really bother me.

Cost of charging isn't irrelevant to the larger discussion, as it impacts the entire EV market as a whole. Excessive charging costs will slow adoption. Should be interesting to see how it plays out.

tl;dr: From a dig, it's a driver's race up to at least 120 mph, then the Taycan begins to pull away.

From a 20 mph roll, the Tesla is quicker, ironically likely due to the Taycan's 2-speed transmission. (Of course, the Taycan eventually closes the gap.)
