Tech Event @ Porsche Towson - The Taycan

Chesapeake Region PCA Members ONLY

TECH Event at Porsche Towson on the game changing Taycan

SATURDAY, February 8th 2020 from 8:30 AM to 10:00 AM

TOPIC: The new Porsche Taycan is the first electric car since Ferdinand Porsche designed and built the model P1 for Lohner in 1898. The Taycan is a game changer on many levels as it was designed to perform like a Porsche and not an economy car. The P1 had six forward gears, two reversing gears and another four gears for braking, but the Taycan is just bit faster, stops shorter, corners better and maybe, just maybe has a few more computers controlling it than the P1. Join us to learn:

• What makes the Taycan go? Why it has a two-speed transmission while its competitors only use a single speed? Why it is so quick and yet can hammer out incredible track times lap after lap?
• Why it charges so quickly? Why it has a 800 volt infrastructure, how it will charge in your driveway since you probably do not have 800 volt service and what Porsches plans are to establish a network of charging stations throughout the US?
• What it will be like to live with? What is the maintenance schedule? How often will you change the oil, air cleaner and radiator fluid?
• What will life be like with Porsche Connect? This new system will be incorporated into future cars- both EV and internal combustion. It will watch over your car and let you and the dealer know what needs to be done to keep your car in proper operating condition.   It will even let you turn on the Taycan’s heater, via your smart phone, before you go out for that midnight winter pizza run.
