1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,480
(car accelerating) - (gasps) Holy (beep) (Laughing) Oh heck yeah, we got one.

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:09,480
The Porsche Taycan 4S, and she looks friggin' beautiful.

3
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:14,770
So, for those of you that don't know, this is Porsche's first full electric vehicle, well I guess

4
00:00:14,770 --> 00:00:17,890
the Turbo S was, but uh, whatever. First full electric vehicle, and

5
00:00:17,890 --> 00:00:21,640
ours comes in at cool $160,000.

6
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:25,960
Um, if you can't tell by my shirt, I don't normally drive cars like this.

7
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:31,410
In frozen blue metallic, that's this color here. The rubberneck a-tude is level ten.

8
00:00:31,410 --> 00:00:34,500
Like every single person, the person in the van over there that's like waiting

9
00:00:34,500 --> 00:00:38,910
for someone across the road, they are just.. People that drive past, every single person

10
00:00:38,910 --> 00:00:43,540
that you go past, they're all just like... Look at it, it's freaking beautiful.

11
00:00:43,540 --> 00:00:49,441
Now, starting off in the front here let's see how the frunk is. Come in here, there's a little

12
00:00:49,441 --> 00:00:53,053
red latch there that you have to pull. (latch thumping) Up got it.

13
00:00:54,350 --> 00:00:59,400
And there's a respectable amount of space in here. I would say that you can probably fit,

14
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:05,500
if you take like, one two-four and put it down sideways. You can take another two-four and put it on top.

15
00:01:05,500 --> 00:01:09,250
And then, hundred percent ready for the cabin parties.

16
00:01:09,250 --> 00:01:12,073
I'm sure that's what everyone (laughs) is using these for.

17
00:01:13,175 --> 00:01:17,920
(shutting frunk) Now, not only is this thing beautiful, but also is a real slippery boy.

18
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:23,540
So, one thing that's super cool- down here is actual little doors that close across these radiators when they are not needed.

19
00:01:23,540 --> 00:01:25,840
To bring the co-efficient of drag down to .22.

20
00:01:26,710 --> 00:01:31,270
I'm not a hundred percent sure on that because those rims might bring it down to .25.

21
00:01:31,270 --> 00:01:34,510
But, either way incredible. Now, for those of you that aren't totally

22
00:01:34,510 --> 00:01:38,177
sure what the co-efficient of drag is, basically, the lower it is the better.

23
00:01:38,177 --> 00:01:42,350
Because that means, there will be less resistance as the car is moving through the air.

24
00:01:42,350 --> 00:01:48,293
I think, a Volkswagen Golf lands somewhere around .32 - .35. Prius is .28.

25
00:01:48,293 --> 00:01:51,730
So, getting .22, is friggin incredible.

26
00:01:51,730 --> 00:01:55,450
Now that said, we do have the rims off of the Turbo S.

27
00:01:55,450 --> 00:01:59,450
Uh, the ones that come stock on this have more of like a turbiney design.

28
00:01:59,450 --> 00:02:04,338
Which I think, helps out your co-efficient of drag. But... These things look really sick.

29
00:02:04,338 --> 00:02:08,266
That said though, the options on this car are friggin insane.

30
00:02:08,266 --> 00:02:12,480
So, these wheels right here, $5,300,

31
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:17,130
and this bit of blue paint, is another $1,300.

32
00:02:17,130 --> 00:02:22,360
There is over $40,000 worth of options on this thing it's, friggin' (laughs) crazy.

33
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:26,890
Speaking of options, Pano roof comes with the premium package.

34
00:02:26,890 --> 00:02:30,790
That's another eight grand. (Laughs) Uh.. But what is really cool is that right here,

35
00:02:30,790 --> 00:02:34,910
you get your charger you give that thing a little flick, and it opens up.

36
00:02:34,910 --> 00:02:39,860
And there's chargers on both sides so, you don't have to worry about how you pull up to the charger.

37
00:02:39,860 --> 00:02:45,200
I think that's just a really nice little touch. Moving across. The door handles they pop out of it,

38
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:49,363
but they can stay in. Now, I'm always concerned about things like this,

39
00:02:49,363 --> 00:02:53,200
like being from out East. You have an ice sheet over it,

40
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:57,690
you just can't open your car doors. But that said, if you all notice these it's in a heated garage.

41
00:02:57,690 --> 00:03:03,143
Like, it's not going to be a problem for you. But, you wanna get in, it pops out- easy.

42
00:03:03,143 --> 00:03:07,700
(car door being shut) Even the butt of this thing looks really good. Then again, one mild complaint that I have,

43
00:03:07,700 --> 00:03:14,243
is that these...these thick ole haunches, (Laughs) make it really hard to figure out just how big the car is.

44
00:03:14,243 --> 00:03:18,125
But, you'll get used to that eventually. Back here, we do have a spoiler.

45
00:03:18,125 --> 00:03:24,050
That does lift up at speed. And also, a trunk of course. (laughs)

46
00:03:24,050 --> 00:03:28,733
I like that they have the button here that's easy to find. And I also really appreciate that to close it,

47
00:03:28,733 --> 00:03:31,900
they have not just close, but close and lock.

48
00:03:31,900 --> 00:03:36,300
Just saves you a step. Nice touch. In here, we have the slate for this video.

49
00:03:36,300 --> 00:03:41,370
I think it's a lot of room. Brandon said it wasn't, but it's a sports car what do you expect?

50
00:03:41,370 --> 00:03:45,680
And also, a big ole charger. Oh, they give you the whole thing in here too. (laughs)

51
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,010
I know that this comes with, a... tire repair kit,

52
00:03:49,010 --> 00:03:54,150
but I don't know where it is. Eh, that's something you can figure out in the owner's manual... When you have that problem.

53
00:03:54,150 --> 00:03:57,550
We also have some nice little cubbies down here to chuck your wine bottles.

54
00:03:57,550 --> 00:04:01,163
I don't know. If you have one of these you are probably putting like $1,300 worth of front.. wine in there,

55
00:04:01,163 --> 00:04:04,400
but you know. (Laughs) Rear seat room's impressive.

56
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:09,370
So, this is behind the seat, and it's full back position. It's further forward when I actually

57
00:04:09,370 --> 00:04:13,340
get the driving position set, and I can still sit very comfortably back here.

58
00:04:13,340 --> 00:04:16,910
You also get heated seats, and some little air con.

59
00:04:16,910 --> 00:04:21,850
Very nice! Additionally, you also get cup holders,

60
00:04:21,850 --> 00:04:26,080
and a full-blownsies ski hatch. I can't show you that because it's hitting our camera,

61
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,920
but you get the deal. (Laughs) There even appears to be a vent for foot heating.

62
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,480
So, cool, I guess. My only complaint about back here

63
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,378
is that there is no charging parts, as far as I can tell, for the rear passengers.

64
00:04:37,378 --> 00:04:40,550
(Laughs) Maybe that's an option, for like $5,000.

65
00:04:40,550 --> 00:04:45,080
Hey, future Alex here. Uh, I was too excited, and forgot to do the sponsor segue. But here it is!

66
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:49,670
Sponsor segue to Pulseway. Pulseway is a real time remote monitoring, and management software.

67
00:04:49,670 --> 00:04:53,633
You can work from anywhere with their mobile app, and get a real time view across your entire network.

68
00:04:53,633 --> 00:04:57,220
Fix problems on the go, by sending commands from any mobile device,

69
00:04:57,220 --> 00:05:01,210
and you can even send commands with your voice. Automate repetitive tasks

70
00:05:01,210 --> 00:05:05,381
to find auto remediation work flows, and ensure critical patches are automatically applied.

71
00:05:05,381 --> 00:05:10,375
It's available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. So, try it for free today at the link below.

72
00:05:10,375 --> 00:05:15,375
(groans) Moving in here, this is a nice spot to exist.

73
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,200
So, you know, as normally you get your seat memory.

74
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:23,785
But, what I wanna test, can you fit an lttstore.com water bottle down in here?

75
00:05:23,785 --> 00:05:27,484
(shuffling) Beautiful! She's a pass.

76
00:05:27,484 --> 00:05:31,700
I love that for long road trips. Overall, this is a very nice spot to be.

77
00:05:31,700 --> 00:05:35,310
But, I do have a couple of nit-picks to get out first.

78
00:05:35,310 --> 00:05:40,270
Panel black, hate it. It always looks terrible after not very long.

79
00:05:40,270 --> 00:05:44,643
Now I've only been using this for about an hour, but my impressions so far, are that this is

80
00:05:44,643 --> 00:05:48,979
the most inscrutable infotainment, that I have ever experienced.

81
00:05:48,979 --> 00:05:53,110
I've watched like 20 minutes worth of videos, outlining how it works, and I still (laughs)

82
00:05:53,110 --> 00:05:56,990
don't totally get it. The climate control, it's never going to get better.

83
00:05:56,990 --> 00:06:00,390
Because I want a knob. What's wrong with just being able to aim

84
00:06:00,390 --> 00:06:05,580
your vents right here. Instead you have to come in here, and aim the vents to where you want them to be.

85
00:06:05,580 --> 00:06:10,587
Who thought that was a good idea? It does work, but oh my God that's stupid. (Laughing)

86
00:06:10,587 --> 00:06:14,530
Other complaint, no Android auto. Come on Porsche,

87
00:06:14,530 --> 00:06:17,800
apparently it's coming in 2022 in the 911, and stuff.

88
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,560
But for now, only apple car play. I don't know why they can't have both.

89
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,880
Apparently, it's for "security concerns" or something,

90
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:29,020
but I don't know, I'm using the phone anyway. Just give me a little thing to be like,

91
00:06:29,020 --> 00:06:34,110
yes I understand this isn't exactly what you want I don't care, I want my Android auto.

92
00:06:34,110 --> 00:06:38,950
The map and navigation is at least pretty good. This is quite responsive and apparently,

93
00:06:38,950 --> 00:06:44,130
Google are the ones that supply the technology for it, so it's gonna be decent.

94
00:06:44,130 --> 00:06:50,340
Although I don't get to say, "Hey (indistinct)," and have it take me somewhere. We get a navigation display (laughs).

95
00:06:50,340 --> 00:06:56,525
This is an option, but I think it's pretty cool. So, this apparently goes to Porsche's rally heritage.

96
00:06:56,525 --> 00:07:03,034
Where you have, you know, someone in your co-drivers seat. Being like, four right over left two long into

97
00:07:03,034 --> 00:07:07,550
three right, don't cut over bridge. (Mumbling) And so on, and so forth.

98
00:07:07,550 --> 00:07:11,080
And the navigator here, gets to... Well, they pretty much just get to

99
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:16,050
search up where you're gonna go. That's- that's kind of it. But, it is pretty nice that they have a full keyboard

100
00:07:16,050 --> 00:07:20,783
when you're driving. It's pretty useless, but at the same time, I think it's pretty freaking cool.

101
00:07:20,783 --> 00:07:24,610
Now, I do feel like there's more to cover in the tech here.

102
00:07:24,610 --> 00:07:30,420
But I need like another week or so to marinate on the actual usefulness, and how annoying it is to use.

103
00:07:30,420 --> 00:07:34,860
We're gonna do a full LTT video, and we will cover that then. I wanna drive this thing.

104
00:07:34,860 --> 00:07:39,670
Ha! Now, the first thing that I noticed, while driving this thing, is that

105
00:07:39,670 --> 00:07:43,780
the back up camera is trash. Oh my God, it's so bad.

106
00:07:43,780 --> 00:07:48,260
I can't tell if that's an Elantra beside me, or a skyscraper. And also, when you turn the wheel,

107
00:07:48,260 --> 00:07:51,660
it changes where exactly it shows you, which you think would be good,

108
00:07:51,660 --> 00:07:55,044
but it just makes it really hard to judge where everything is.

109
00:07:55,044 --> 00:08:00,200
When I was backing out of this car from Linus' driveway, I had to move my Golf out of the way,

110
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,708
to make sure that I didn't damage the nice blue paint on my Golf.

111
00:08:03,708 --> 00:08:09,715
It does have a 360 cam. It's fine, but like, when you have $5,300 rims,

112
00:08:09,715 --> 00:08:14,083
it's not good enough. (Laughs) First of all, these seats in the driving position,

113
00:08:14,083 --> 00:08:17,690
I think I like it. It's kind of hard to say.

114
00:08:17,690 --> 00:08:20,811
There's fourteen adjustments, that you can do with the seat.

115
00:08:20,811 --> 00:08:23,931
As well as like steering wheel placement, and stuff.

116
00:08:23,931 --> 00:08:29,870
And I'm sure that somewhere in there, I can find the perfect balance. I haven't found it yet,

117
00:08:29,870 --> 00:08:34,294
but I think I will pretty soon. One thing this does that I actually quite like,

118
00:08:34,294 --> 00:08:37,740
is when you're going along, and you kind of like

119
00:08:37,740 --> 00:08:41,730
take your foot off the gas. It basically just keeps you at the speed you're going.

120
00:08:41,730 --> 00:08:47,403
I'm going up a hill right here, so it isn't. But it basically, just has auto-cruise.

121
00:08:47,403 --> 00:08:50,642
Now, it is kind of the exact opposite of one-foot driving,

122
00:08:50,642 --> 00:08:55,660
but I'm not a big fan of one-foot driving because you have to always have your foot on the gas.

123
00:08:55,660 --> 00:09:00,270
So, I'm personally a fan. As for comfort,

124
00:09:00,270 --> 00:09:04,860
I would say it is exceptional. Especially, given this is a sports car.

125
00:09:04,860 --> 00:09:10,440
So, this you do get, adjustable dampers. Awesome. I love them. I think everything should have them.

126
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:14,970
At least everything above like, $40,000 should have them.

127
00:09:14,970 --> 00:09:19,470
And it also has an air suspension, so you can go up and down depending on,

128
00:09:19,470 --> 00:09:23,035
you know, if you are on a track, or you're going out to your buddy's cabin

129
00:09:23,035 --> 00:09:26,730
and his driveway is a bit less great. (laughs)

130
00:09:26,730 --> 00:09:32,650
This display in front of me, you got a couple modes. You can change it here from power meter to map,

131
00:09:32,650 --> 00:09:36,650
that just shows you the map in the center. And you can also do the extended map,

132
00:09:36,650 --> 00:09:40,630
which would be awesome for like, longer road trips.

133
00:09:40,630 --> 00:09:44,190
It's so freaking big. My favorite may be, is just reduced.

134
00:09:44,190 --> 00:09:47,680
You only get the speedometer in the center. I find that the steering wheel can kind of

135
00:09:47,680 --> 00:09:52,640
cut off the information on the sides anyway. Now, unfortunately we don't have Porsche's self-driving.

136
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,196
It's called like, "Innovate Drive", or some crap like that. - (automated voice) InnoDrive

137
00:09:56,196 --> 00:09:59,890
- It doesn't matter, but then again, the adaptive cruise, and the lane keep in this,

138
00:09:59,890 --> 00:10:04,780
does seem to be really good anyway. And that's kind of all that I would personally use.

139
00:10:04,780 --> 00:10:09,990
One thing that I am really impressed with, is the pedal-feel. So I find in some electric vehicles,

140
00:10:09,990 --> 00:10:13,240
especially on the brakes, you 'll get the regenerative braking,

141
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:19,390
and then, also kinda get into the real brakes. And there can be like a weird, nonlinearity there.

142
00:10:19,390 --> 00:10:23,697
And it's just kinda gross feeling. Where as in this, the pedal just...

143
00:10:23,697 --> 00:10:29,020
is awesome the whole way down. Now, that might just be because I've only used the regen.

144
00:10:29,020 --> 00:10:33,100
Apparently, this will do .4 of a G of regenerative breaking, which is like, fantastic.

145
00:10:33,100 --> 00:10:38,440
I think the breaks on this were like $4,000, so you don't wanna replace those too often.

146
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,750
Oh yeah, there we go. That's the good stuff.

147
00:10:41,750 --> 00:10:47,050
You can adjust the volume by sliding right here. It's kinda weird. I would only use the steering wheel.

148
00:10:47,050 --> 00:10:51,710
So, this is Bose sound system, the most premium one is from Burmester,

149
00:10:51,710 --> 00:10:55,795
but I think it's safe to say, this one is quite good.

150
00:10:55,795 --> 00:11:00,795
(Upbeat music) Oh yeah! That is, that is good.

151
00:11:02,140 --> 00:11:07,590
So, how do I turn this off? (camera beeping) Yeah, so that is very good at being able

152
00:11:07,590 --> 00:11:10,830
to both have the highs being nice and clear,

153
00:11:10,830 --> 00:11:15,800
while also having the bass, but it's not like the muddy bass, it's like the nice clear distinct bass.

154
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,840
Oh, we've got a corner here too. This is an excellent little time.

155
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,893
So, let's see how this feels. Uh... It's my first time hitting the gas.

156
00:11:22,893 --> 00:11:26,077
Oh! Wow. Okay! The steering feel overall,

157
00:11:26,077 --> 00:11:30,109
I think is exceptional at least for an electric car.

158
00:11:30,109 --> 00:11:34,680
I can't really tell you how it feels until we've been on a track.

159
00:11:34,680 --> 00:11:40,530
I am nowhere near the limits of this thing. Like, you cannot do that legally, at all.

160
00:11:40,530 --> 00:11:44,010
But like, how direct it is,

161
00:11:44,010 --> 00:11:48,470
it just feels so good. Ah do we have like a tractor up here? Dang it, Lanley.

162
00:11:48,470 --> 00:11:54,060
Well, I took a wrong turn, and I can now confirm that if you go down like a gypsum,

163
00:11:54,060 --> 00:11:57,660
very banged up road, it is quite comfy, So, that's always good to know.

164
00:11:57,660 --> 00:12:01,690
Let's get this thing turned around. Hats off to Porsche's suspension engineers.

165
00:12:01,690 --> 00:12:05,640
It cannot be easy, making a car that is this heavy-

166
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:11,240
I think this thing is like four and a half thousand pounds- feel this good.

167
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:15,400
Okay, so launch control. Now, you take the drive mode button right here,

168
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:19,340
you put it into sport plus. Foot full on the break, full on the gas.

169
00:12:19,340 --> 00:12:22,943
Okay, and lets do it! (car engine roaring) Holy (beep)!

170
00:12:23,995 --> 00:12:27,220
(Laughing) Ope, and now we are way above the speed limit

171
00:12:27,220 --> 00:12:33,110
of everything in Canada. Uh. ( Laughing) Oh my God. That was shocking.

172
00:12:33,110 --> 00:12:36,480
So, yeah. Uh, five hundred and sixty-five horse power

173
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,870
available in launch control mode, and she kicks.

174
00:12:39,870 --> 00:12:44,210
Um, I have driven Teslas before, even on a track.

175
00:12:44,210 --> 00:12:48,220
And that was unlike any acceleration I've ever experienced before.

176
00:12:48,220 --> 00:12:51,810
That was way more immediate. Way more like, head jerk.

177
00:12:51,810 --> 00:12:54,960
Like oh my God, that is...

178
00:12:55,962 --> 00:13:00,210
Holy crap. (laughing) Oh my God, I cannot wait to drive

179
00:13:00,210 --> 00:13:03,460
this thing on the track now. Holy (beep). Oh yeah, it has like four hundred and

180
00:13:03,460 --> 00:13:10,720
ninety foot pounds of torque. I have floored it in a model S before, and I believe that has a faster zero to sixty time.

181
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:15,050
But, the come on time of these motors, is way faster.

182
00:13:15,050 --> 00:13:19,827
Like when you go from zero to one hundred with this, I'm at like basically 0 throttle right now.

183
00:13:19,827 --> 00:13:23,960
(engages gas pedal) Oh my God! So, you might have noticed during the launch there,

184
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:27,290
that there was, some pretty space shippy sounds.

185
00:13:27,290 --> 00:13:31,958
So, the electric motors do make their own noise. I think in normal mode you only hear that,

186
00:13:31,958 --> 00:13:37,618
but when you put it into sport plus mode, there's like a... sound actor, I guess.

187
00:13:37,618 --> 00:13:41,598
It's fake pumped in sound, basically. But it is quite fun like...

188
00:13:41,598 --> 00:13:45,170
(zooming noise) Very space shippy.

189
00:13:45,170 --> 00:13:48,610
I quite like it. I don't even remember what else I was supposed to do.

190
00:13:48,610 --> 00:13:53,540
I just wanna do that a hundred times. Well, I think that's about-oh my God. That was-

191
00:13:53,540 --> 00:13:57,497
that was fun. Hit like, get subscribed, uh... let us know what we can do

192
00:13:57,497 --> 00:14:01,707
different in these kind of videos. And yeah. I am very,

193
00:14:01,707 --> 00:14:06,553
very excited to try this out on the track properly for LTT.
