The driver’s side retains the J1772 AC port.
Porsche has also upgraded the infotainment system in the MY27 Taycan with software we’ve already seen in the electric Macan and Cayenne. The hardware in the Porsche Communication Management module is much faster than before (Porsche says up to five times) and there are more customizable widgets and an onboard personal assistant. The system is fully OTA-updatable, Porsche says.

The Taycan Turbo GT gets E-Shift as standard, other Taycans will need to spec the GT Sport wheel seen here.

All of those tweaks should make the Taycan easier to live with. E-Shift is supposed to make it more fun. The idea is simple: replicate a paddleshift semi-automatic transmission by changing the throttle mapping and lift-off regenerative braking, using paddles on the steering wheel. Hyundai proved with its Ioniq 5 N that, when done right, it adds a whole extra level of fun. As has Honda with its S+ shift in the new Prelude, and Ferrari is doing something similar (but a little different) with the electric Luce. (Although when done inexpertly, it’s not that great—the Lexus RZ’s M Mode was underwhelming.)
E-Shift is enabled as an extra mode on the GT Sport steering wheel, and like those other EVs, if you don’t want to pretend you have a gearbox, just don’t press that button.
