Doesn't it allow access to other options within the drivetrain and drive modes? That's what I thought for Sports Chrono on the Taycan.

It certainly does on the Panamera so I would assume the same for the Taycan unless someone says otherwise.

i realize it’s personal choice, but do you mind sharing how you have your “individual mode” set up? Assume it’s something between “Sport” and “Sport Plus”? I’ll be getting mine in the next few days. Thanks

What sport chrono can offer on the Taycan is obviously less than it does on the ICE vehicles (e.g., dynamic engine mounts, more aggressive shift points with PDK, etc). What it does offer is easier access to drive modes, sport plus and individual drive modes, the chronograph itself, and the GT sport steering wheel. For me, the primary reason for getting the sport chrono package was the steering wheel - much more substantive and sporty. If the GT steering wheel were available separately I likely would have passed on the package (depending on price differential).

Yup. I got it. Picking up the car in the next couple of days. Just looking for suggestions regarding the personalized setting on the drive control ****. Got to be some mix of “Sport” and “Sport Plus”, I assume? And I do get that it is “personalized”, so what I choose may not be exactly what others have chosen.

My individual setting:
- normal drive mode
- sport suspension (not plus)
- lowest suspension height
- auto recuperation

I wanted the sport wheel and individual setting.
No other real reason
