Engineering Explained did a good piece on the Taycan, and at the end, they cover the difference between the Porsche and Tesla philosophy on battery; and how the Porsche philosophy gives them a consistent throttle feel, a 'held back' battery buffer so regen ability is not inconsistent, etc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYMRXlRoHyQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYMRXlRoHyQ But, at the end of the day, the Taycan is still just breathtakingly inefficient compared to the Tesla. It's all fine and good that other manufacturers are "holding back" capacity, but all that means is you're hauling around battery weight you can't use, and won't use until you've burned through a certain % of battery longevity. If you do at all. It's not "helping" anyone, it's just giving them bragging rights about effectively, fake degredation numbers. Here's some great data on how Tesla batteries degrade: https://electrek.co/2018/04/14/tesla-battery-degradation-data/ https://electrek.co/2018/04/14/tesla-battery-degradation-dat... I guess the question is, would you rather see that a smaller number that never goes down? Or be able to use more of the capacity?
