Test drove a 2024 Taycan sedan base.

Damn bro I completely forgot how comfortable driving can be. Taycan just handles potholes and all sorts of road imperfections in Boston so well. The dealer is in Allston, where I try my best to avoid when driving the 911. Because it is just so uncomfortable and nerve wrecking when I get thrown around. Taycan just glides on the road. Train tracks? No problem. I could barely feel it. The ride quality is amazing.

The car is 800 lbs heavier than 911, but it doesn’t feel that way at all. Cornering is awesome. It handled Comm Ave curves great IMO. Not as good as 911 of course, the weight is there, but the driving dynamic is definitely close.

Trunk space. I measured at 6 feet 3 inches with the rear seats folded (passenger seat still reclined) which is more than deep enough to fit my bike inside without taking wheels off. That’s all I’m concerned about.

The look of Taycan. Damn it is the most beautiful EV on the market. And Taycan Cross Turismo? Even better. I love a good looking wagon.

The interior is typical Porsche (of course depends on the options) but it’s simple and a little luxurious (not like screaming at you) with the black leather. Two cup holders in the middle console is something great to have coming from 911. I can also definitely get used to the Heads up display. One thing I really hate is the air conditioning control, which is on a separate screen. But what can I do? All manufacturers are moving in that direction.

First of all, it’s fantastic and fun to drive. Second, the ride quality is excellent. 911 will torture you for driving in Boston, but Taycan won’t. Third, it’s practical. It’s a great GT car.
