I've owned Audis. Recently visited a Porsche dealership to look at Macans and Panameras. Shocked at how cramped the interiors were... And maybe if the Macan was going to be cramped because it's a small car, the Panamera would be roomier.
But at 6 feet tall, I couldn't imagine sitting in either car regularly. So maybe I'm not a Porsche kind of guy.
So, all things being equal, that experience lowered my Taycan interest, and kept Audi e-tron interest pretty high.
And I don't know enough about their roll-out plans yet, but I do wonder about the Audi charging network availability.

Unlike some other brands, the Porsche Macan can be configured exactly the way you want it. Options are a la carte. There are some option bundles, but you aren't forced into them. A Macan without a sunroof has lots of headroom, both front and back. I'm 5'11" and my head doesn't come close to the roof. But if you're 6'6" then you're probably very limited to the cars you can sit in. Basketball players tend to drive large SUVs, such as the Cadillac Escalade. The only way to know what the Taycan will be like will be to sit in one. Plus you certainly don't want one of the first few model years. The pioneers always wind up with arrows in their backs. I do wonder about the Audi charging network availability. Tesla was forced into doing a supercharger network, because there was nothing like that out there. But it would be insane if every manufacturer felt the need to build out their own network. That seems crazy inefficient.
