Fully Charged gets an exclusive first drive of the Porsche Taycan, running 0-200 km/h launch control repeatedly. It covers the car's twin-motor 800-volt specs, claimed range and fast charging.

Used in Tesla comparison threads to show the Taycan repeating launches without overheating or losing performance.
