Exterior 

Taycan is a beautiful looking car with lots of sporty elements which are giving it an astounding appearance which helps it to stands out in crowd with a confidence. 

Face 

I'm in love with its smooth design which has a sort of peace thus it looks absolutely sensational. Taycan won't have that typical Porsche headlamps, the design in this is more sharper than the regular one it get adaptive LED Matrix lights with four small DRLs in each lamp which also work as indicator. The housing of headlamp gotta a shape of seven (7), where the long vertically extended portion is having wind curtain for reducing aerodynamic drag. 

No grille is there, and the thing is that it won't need any. But it get a black portion which holds numbers of sensors and camera. Sharp bumper helps in aerodynamic efficiency and also look super cool indeed. 

As the battery is placed under the floor it have two boots, at front as well at the back. Some striking lines are on the hood to give it an aggressive expression. 

Side profile 

It's a long saloon with floating roof line which looks mesmerizing indeed. The flow in the body language is making me speach less. 

Wheels are looking fantastic in this car perfectly merging with the personality of this car, as you go on to higher variants the size of the tyre increases. Porsche offers you to customise your car where you can choose a lots of stuff like upholstery, material, alloy design, brake caliper colour and lots of other things can be customised. 

Ground clearance is reflecting its sporty behaviour but it get air suspensions thus you can lift up or lower down your car as per your preference but this thing isn't available in RWD variant. 

Charging jack is placed nearby the front wheels on either side of the car, which you can access by swiping finger below its cover and the way its cover goes back is so amazing to see. 

Window area is sufficiently big to draw good amount of light in the cabin although the rear windows get that black treatment. 

Indicator are close to front wheels and also embedded in the ORVMs. 

Rear end 

Coming to the back, Porsche has decorated this region fabulously where you can see lots of sporty touches which are enhancing the end of the car. Tail lights are joined to each other via thin strip of light, below that it get 3D badging of Porsche, variant badging is also there. To open the boot it get small button as well. Diffuser is covered in black with some horizontal lines with embedded sensors, camera and fog lamps are also there. 

Interior

How they have designed the interior is a thing of spot light because they have blended modernity with opulence so well that the flavour they wanted to serve is hiting the exact right point. 

Rear seats 

Frame less doors are looking so freaking sick, I'm in love with them, let's open them.

Plenty of space is there for you and seats are delivering extraordinary lavishness. Over here rear AC vents are present which you can control by a touch screen just below AC vents, rear center arm rest with glass holders, adjustable headrest. In top variant it get 4 zone automatic climate control AC which makes everyone happy. 

The best part is that Porsche offers you too many options of upholstery, seat options and seat selt colours as well. 

Front seats

Every possible amenity is present in this region where you have 15 way electric seat adjust function, ventilation function and next level of support for you. Arm rest is there with some space and cup holders are also present.

Dashboard 

One of the best looking dash and futuristic at the same time. Totally it have 4 screens which is giving a futuristic and an incredible appeal. 

Porsche is also giving separate screen to that person who is neglected by every luxury car by giving a feature known as boss mode (where front passenger seat can be adjusted by person sitting  behind him/her). Now front passenger can also have fun and entertainment in his or her own way, this screen is loaded with features where you can control music, see navigation and other interesting things.

Elegant AC vent is beside this screen. This screen is an optional thing. 

Coming to the center, a big infotainment system is serving you its best where you can see and control tons of things. Below this you get AC vents and another screen to control AC. It also feature a handwriting kinda system where you can write thing with your figure and infotainment system will work accordingly. 

Behind the steering wheel a massive fully digital instrument cluster which is slightly curved. It's literally too big than usual. It have bunch of things to explore and have too much information about the Taycan. This cluster changes its interface with respect to drive mode. 

Three spoke multi function steering wheel with usual controls like volume, media, instrument cluster, call and other things. This wheel is adjustable both for reach and height. 

The car also feature heads up display and traditional Porsche analogue watch which is an epitome of Porsche's rich history. 

At the end, this is an absolute electric gem which is pretty futuristic, full of luxury and sporty at the same time. 

🎉 🎉🎉🎉 Happy New year 🎉🎉🎉🎉
