All Taycans Will Gain About 50 km In Range From A Free Software Update
With BEVs, almost like the wave of a magic wand, you can upgrade many things like you do on your mobile phone. For the 2023 model year, the Taycan receives a significant software upgrade which will be made available to some 75,000 Taycans that are currently on the road. Porsche said owners will be ‘pleasantly surprised’ at how much the vehicle has been developed since their purchase. As an Easter egg trivia surprise, Porsche refers to this as the ‘uPdate’, because the 2023 model year, which started in July 2022, bears the letter ‘P’.
Porsche And Pixar Animation Studios Reveal A Factory One-Off 911
Porsche and Pixar Animation Studios have unveiled a very special Porsche inspired by one of the most popular 911s: Sally Carrera, the famous car from Disney and Pixar’s animated film Cars. Like Sally Carrera, the 911 Sally Special is one of a kind. There will only be one 911 Sally Special – and it’s the first time that Pixar has supported such a project. The one-off car will be auctioned by RM Sotheby's on Saturday, 20 August 2022 as part of Monterey Car Week in California. Auction proceeds will be donated to two charities. A portion of the proceeds will benefit young women through a donation to Girls Inc. The second portion will go to USA for UNHCR, an organisation that supports refugees from Ukraine.
