    Front suspension 

    The only competitor of porsche taycan is tesla which is not even available in india and therefore there is no sense of buying this car.Tesla is very cheap in compared with it and has more features as well.It comes with a synchronous electric motor in multiple states of tune, Across two battery pack options.The all-electric has an wltp-claimed range of up to 484km which is impressive but price is a lot for it.

    Porsche quality 

    Porsche build quality alone would make me go with this over a tesla. To be fair to Tesla, They offer more features with money. But Porsche is night and day better when it comes to the interior overall styling. But if I had to go with anyone. I would go with Tesla any day. No AWD(All Wheel Drive), less range, less power, and the worst charging network is a tough even considering Porsche quality and refinement.
