Porsche's electric car "Taikan" runs in Shanghai, England and the United States

Porsche electric car Taycan demonstrates

Taycan is Porsche's first fully electric sports car.

A video of this Taycan taken very close has come out, so I would like to see it!

For example, close-up of eyes ... ↓ * It seems that camouflage is still attached, so you can't swallow it as you see it, just in case.

Before that, I would like to write about Porsche's Taycan demo run in three countries, so I will post various photos at the end.

Porsche Taycan Triple Demo Run: Porsche Taycan Triple Demo Run

It was announced that the "Porsche Taycan Triple Demo Run", which will be a demonstration run of this Porsche Taycan, will be held.

This demonstration run will be held in three countries: China (Shanghai), the United Kingdom, and the United States.

Porsche has written exactly "three major markets for the Taycan" ↓. So that's it….

Taycan will run in these three countries for three weeks.

It is said that Taycans running in each country will be colored in honor of each country.

First of all, the Taycan in Shanghai, where the first demonstration run was held, had a picture of a dragon drawn on the roof. After all, wasn't this a "dragon" and not a "panda"? It would have been cute if it was a panda ^^

No, it's an important place where the image of Taycan is influenced, so I guess this was not a panda but a dragon ~ ^ ^

By the way, the decorations in England and the United States seem to be the national flags of each country.

The Porsche Carrera Cup Asia driver, Li Chao, was the driver for the demonstration run in Shanghai on July 1, 2019.

Detailed image of Porsche Taycan

By the way, from here, the review video of Taycan was released in China, so I would like to see some Taycan from there.

First of all, your face! !! Taycan, the eyes are very characteristic. Headlights that have a tremendous impact.

However, if you look only at the actual light part, the impression will change a lot (it's still camouflaged, not a realistic figure).

Like this ↓

Is this easier to see? ↓

It looks like this when the light is on in the dark.

When the light is on in the dark, the camouflage part can be seen fading, so you can see that it is the closest to the concept as Mission E ↓

The light also has the letters Porsche LED Matrix System.

later…

Seen from the front, I thought that the radar such as Porsche Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), which is under the license plate, is kind of amazing.

It looks pretty exciting, but isn't that the case? In the case of Japan, I feel that the license plate is likely to be quite higher than the 992. ↓

Also under the side mirrorThe camera for side view is the same as the new Porsche 911 (992)..

The rest is the rear view.

The light seems to come on like this. Isn't it just one sideways? I wonder if this is still hidden.

And what is the part that looks like a muffler actually?

Here is a video where you can see a close-up Taycan video ↓.

It's difficult to understand because the language is Chinese (laughs),This is a video reviewing the prototype of the Taycan that was actually demonstrated at the Porsche Experience Center in Shanghai.

When I think about it, I actually learned Chinese for three years when I was in college, and now I can even "watch Chinese movies in Chinese and write a report in Chinese"! !!

But ... it's been a tremendous number of years, and if I hadn't touched Chinese at all during that time ... I couldn't understand anything even after watching this video. Too sad ~ (tears)! After all, the language must always be touched. If you have learned any language, please continue to learn ^^

I regret that I should have really continued.

Then, please watch the video!

Also, there are some pictures of Taycan's demo run in Shanghai, so I will post them as well.
