Remember how much of a revelation it was seeing the first Tesla\u2019s on the road in around 2008?

With a book figure of 570bhp for models with the optional Performance Battery Plus and an eye watering 3.8 second 0-60 time, the Taycan is very much capable of destroying a lot of supercars out there. Although 570bhp might not be an enormously high figure of power that we\u2019re used to these days, don\u2019t forget that all 570 horses are instant, with absolutely zero lag compared to a more conventional petrol-powered car.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tegiwaimports.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-11-25-09.53.51.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4303 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tegiwaimports.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-11-25-09.53.51-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tegiwa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-11-25-09.53.51-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.tegiwa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-11-25-09.53.51-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tegiwa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-11-25-09.53.51-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tegiwa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-11-25-09.53.51-640x427.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.tegiwa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-11-25-09.53.51-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A hot subject that\u2019s seen a lot of discussion when it comes to EV&#8217;s is the range that the batteries are capable of.

Instead, we use these neat lowering links to drop the cars to our desired height, in this case 20mm lower than standard.

It really is indescribable compared to anything else as the seats hug you in and the seat belts tighten the faster you get. When the throttle is pressed and you ooze off, the noise from the Porsche Electric Sport Sound can only be described as something like a \u2018oooooooooo\u2019, which is strangely addictive.
