Default Taycan GTS rear axle steering

Submitted my order today for dec 16th delivery. Was wondering if rear axle steering is “worth it” on GTS. I’ll obviously will be doing a bit of spirited driving, but very little to no track time. As of now, I have it on there…keep it? Thoughts appreciated , thanks

I expect it will make a remarkable difference. Had RAS on my 911 Carrera T. Ordered it on my 2021 Cayenne Turbo Coupe and will be getting it on my inbound Taycan 4S across Turismo. It makes the car turn in faster and on larger cars, makes them feel and drive smaller.

RAS is even more important with non performance maneuvers like 3 point turns, U turns and parking in tight parking lots. It's a game changer for driving such a low and wide car.

You're only focusing on the performance aspect of RAS and that really only comes into play with really spirited performance driving stability.

I just traded our non-RAS Taycan Turbo for a GTS ST with RAS. It really does make a difference. The car feels smaller and more maneuverable. I think it’s worth it.

Glad we can help you spend more money :-). All kidding aside, the RAS is worth the bucks.
