I think people finally stopped view Tesla as a luxury brand.

Didn’t early base Macans start under 50k. I remember a Miami dealer who had like 40 white base Macans as lease units for customers who wanted a cheap Porsche.

Yeah the Macan EV that high is OD but calm down bruh. That Taycan ****s on the Tesla in looks and driving. Like comparing a gokart to a sports car.

Macan will still sell because now Fed is giving 7500 credit at time of purchase even on LEASE. So i'm sure the pricing is strategic.
80k with 55% residual is 37k
37k - 7500 down (free from fed) is 30k. With some additional pull from Porsche Financial this car will be sub 1k a month.

Matter of fact i think NJ and a couple other states have no sales tax on EVs too. Not bad at all.

The Taycan craps on Tesla when it comes to styling and driving dynamics. But range, network, and price point favors the Tesla more. We're still in the early infancy stage of EVs so it's going to be interesting to see where this subindustry evolves.

It looks an Urus. Plus it's a Turbo EV so I understand the pricing. Macans will sell regardless.

Hell yeah, Saleen Explorer. These were one of Steve Saleen's little experiments to see if they would sell. They definitely sold as there was NOTHING like it at the time. Super cool and very rare. They rarely come up for sale. Thanks for the tag.

Just an fyi the credit changed a lot this year. Less cars qualify for the full credit including the Model 3 since the battery minerals are mostly sourced from China.
These EVs Will Get You The Biggest Tax Credit
Here’s the latest on which cars and trucks qualify for federal credits.
www.investors.com
Seems in 2023 34 EVs qualified but for 2024 it’s only 20.

Why do people in this thread compare Taycan to a model 3? Cars are both EV’s but that’s it. Model 3 is a Prius with vinyl interior trim and minimalist dash. Taycan is a Porsche. No one is realistically choosing between either a Taycan OR a model 3.
LOL at the guy whining about how back seats on a Taycan are smaller than a model 3. Talk about not seeing the forest for the trees…

I’d drive a taycan and I don’t care about EV.
You wouldn’t catch me in a Tesla. Not even the ones for 16k hertz is selling.

Tesla might have the worst interiors ever. They scream, "I don't care". Like dentist's office lobby.
