Default Taycan internal numeric designation

I came over here from the Panny forum to ask what may be a silly question. Can someone tell me if the Taycan has a internal numeric designation, like the Panny is 970 or a 911 is a 991? Could it be 966?

Thanks guys!

I think it's a new system that starts with a letter. Forgot where I saw it.

Thanks!
I've been wondering about that Y1A ... rather "sterile" of them to not use E as in Mission e ... Germans.

Yes the internal model designation is Y1A but the platform is J1 it’s shared with Audi. Much like the cayenne is Y09 but the platform is MLBevo shares with Audi, Lamborghini and Bentley.
