Beautiful picture of the Taycan at the Ayer Keroh fast charger yesterday, what a beauty!

Porsche announce they will exit Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) by 2030 at the IfA Industry Summit 2020 in Nürtingen today.

Reports are coming out stating that although the Taycan is capable of Over-the-Air (OTA) updates, they are sending out letter to the owners requesting them to send the car to the workshop to update their software.

Details of why this is happening is not clear. But one thing is for sure. Future cars especially for EV, needs software to be the core competency for car manufacturers.

The same issue happened to VW with its ID.3 where they had to manually update the cars before shipping them out to the dealership.

OTA capability as in a computer ensures that the product is continuously improved to solve any issues remotely.

(Attached is the Taycan owners manual which states the OTA capability at page 174)

Charging the EV is an integral part of owning an electric car.
Understanding how your car charges and also the different types of charges available is good to understand before owning one or before taking a trip from KL to Penang.
Great to see that Porsche is publishing videos to explain it better to consumers.

So the first delivery of Taycan in Malaysia is currently underway.
Porsche is currently prepping the car to be handed over to their loving owners.


A local EVSE company will come over to install your home charging point for the car.






As mentioned before Porsche will install a home energy monitor for owners to keep an eye on electricity consumption, charging, etc.

2019, Elon: owning a car without autonomous capability is like owning a horse.

Taycan cold battery degradation.

It's a good thing its nice and warm here!
EV battery loves Malaysian weather

Apparently the owner of the 1st Taycan in Malaysia is a durian lover!

With a frunk, the smell is insulated from the main cabin.

The usefulness of a frunk.

Its great seeing all these new Taycan owners learning about the effects of different charging speeds and state of charge, charging curves', EV power consumption and regen brakes, route planning form KL to Penang and back.
Some are already itching to have long trips once the interstate travel ban is lifted.

Also Porsche is already teasing the market with the Taycan Cross Turismo just for the people who would like a more roomier interior.

Saw a Taycan on the road here in SG yesterday. It's beautiful.

went to see taycan at ara damansara and definitely good looking car compare to panamera but interior i still prefer panamera.

there are stock ready car with limited colors or else have to wait june-august for customization

apparently, they need to survey if your house can install charging point at your house first before letting you to purchase.

Mamba Green Metallic or Carmine Red?
Beautiful colors either one.

Big news from Porsche at the VW Power Day presentation.
They are going to build fast charging stations along popular highways in Europe.

Hopefully with the high adoption of Prosche Taycan in Singapore, Malaysia & Thailand maybe they will also open one here in Malaysian highways
