103: LIVE Drive Porsche Taycan 4S

David, a listener of the podcast, invited Peter Ross and Halil to drive his Porsche Taycan 4S. We drove it slowly, we drove it quickly and it performed like a Porsche. A surpirse Tesla turned up and the Porsche spoiled the party. Peter performed a launch control start and experienced the change in gears in an electric car. The optional steering wheel feels like alcantara but is made from recyclable fishing wire. During Ross' turn to drive he tails a police car. The verdict - Porsche has brought a gun to a Tesla knife fight!!! Follow us on Instagram and email us [email protected]
