Modern electric cars are technically significantly different cars – and it only starts with the drive. The integrated software connects the entire car, so with a simple update, in addition to the on-board infotainment, the charging speed or range can also be affected.
–
Regardless of age, version and body style, all Taycans can be brought up to the 2023 model year software level with a comprehensive software update that adds efficiency, range and functionality improvements.
–
At the same time, it is not a small matter. Customers will get an increase in powertrain efficiency, which will lead to an increase in range of approximately 50 kilometers according to the WLTP protocol.
–
The update increases efficiency by almost completely disconnecting and deactivating the front electric motor on all-wheel drive models in Normal and Range driving modes. When coasting and stationary, both axles have no driving torque.

Other changes include an optimized energy recovery strategy and a new energy flow indicator on the central display.

The update also improves the thermal management of the battery, especially in low outdoor temperatures. This allows the taycan to be fast-charged more often overall and across a wider range of battery charge levels, with more range and shorter charging times. A 22kW on-board charger is now also available for retrofitting.
–
The on-board system has new features and a colorful tile design on the splash screen. The vehicles will also get optimized voice control, Spotify app integration and wireless Android Auto.
–
Assistance systems are also improved, such as the sensors of the ParkAssist function, which now work with a greater range. In addition, drivers are now offered smaller parking spaces.
–
It is also possible to have individual functions and equipment unlocked after purchase, such as the keyless entry function for the doors and the trunk.
–
The update is free for customers, but can only be done by visiting a Porsche workshop.
