Most underrated engineering feature on the Taycan
Bought my ‘23 Taycan used and the front bumper was scraped up, like many of us have accidentally done in cars when we scrape on a curb while parking or whatever. There’s that moment you run your hand underneath the bumper and feel the paint damage and tell yourself it’s fine, you can’t see it, move on.
This Taycan’s bottom was bent forward like they really hit something and had to reverse back. Thankfully Porsche designed it so that part that got scrapped is replaceable. The place that’s detailing my car and adding full body PPF pulled up the schematics and was able to order that exact part to replace. Never had a car before that had that feature, intentional or not.
Now with the way the parking camera is positioned, I highly doubt I’ll ever accidentally scrape on a curb again. I hated the camera quality at first and it still sucks but with the level it’s positioned at, it works just fine for my use case. I no longer care that the image quality is that low and the fisheye effect is so strong.
