17:32 If the trim of my car is called the "Supercharged Manual Offroader 4WD" but it's a front wheel drive naturally aspirated 2-Cylindar, then that's bad marketing.
Cool Video as always, Doug. Just a hint – at 3:10 when talking about the ‚regular’ Taycan in comparison to the Cross Turismo…that’s the Mission E Concept, not a Taycan… There are two things that give it away right away – the suicide rear doors and the profiled rear wing.
And the reduction in cargo space does not come from a larger battery. It comes from the subwoofer of the Bose stereo system that comes standard with the Turbo and Turbo S and is optional for the lower specs. This one even has the Burmester 3D Sound System (can be seen at 8:32 and 12:09). All Cross Turismos come with the performance battery (aka larger battery) as standard. So even a base Cross Turismo will have the reduced cargo space if you opt for the sound system upgrade – it’s not a battery thing.
Also, it’s cool to finally see a review of a Cross Turismo without the Off-Road Design Package (aka the little wings around the wheelarches) – nearly all of the promo cars have that option installed…
Crossover is a generic definitionless term that describes nothing. If you extend the cabin of a sedan to the rear of the car so the trunk becomes part of the cabin and is now a cargo area, you have a station wagon. Sorry soccer moms who wish to be 25 forever, you're driving a wagon.
Great review, but as always with car reviews: don't review the 160K+ version alone, but also the basic version with some options and see if it still ticks all the boxes including the price box!
Can all the journalists & manufacturers STOP PRETENDING that EV car owners give a crap about how powerful & fast their car is….NO!! All they care about is RANGE RANGE RANGE !! & how they can hypermile the most efficiently.
It's a wonder that this car even made it to the US! German brands are usually very greedy about sending high performance station wagons to the US market!
Love those station sportcars like the Ferarri FF, and now also the Koenigsegg…. Not a big fan of the Panamera. This Porshce looks awesome but not in this colour.
St.wagon ..lol!

@16:06 I had to do a double take – I thought a cat was sitting on the roof of the car…

It’s not a station wagon Doug, it’s an estate car

German engineering and design, alive and well. Bauhaus still happening!
I still dont know why rs6 has 8 practicallity points and taycan cross has 6.
don't all taycans have the save size battery
I hope to someday be wealthy enough to buy the turbo s version of this
Is there gonna be an Audi rs e-tron gt avant?
Brand new car but the infotainment is laggy af. Tesla the only manufacturer to nail this. Why??
Electric turbo relies on electric exhaust?
Rims are ugly af
Apologize for it all you want, the name is stupid.
My wife- I remember when you used to caress me like you do your Cross Tour.
You can make the argument this is, by far, the greatest station wagon ever created
Assuming you could actually define a "station wagon"
Before Doug drove that Tesla Plaid with 1,000 HP now that’s fast….
You lost me at air vent moving process
Very fast car beatiful looking
This has to be the ugliest abomination of a car I've ever seen and probably will see.
I feel like making the ac settings on touch screen is a bit overkill, especially the direction of the ac vent
Just bought one in gta
hes so animated with the head movements and had gestures. can he just be normal
Gorgeous car with hideous cladding

Wouldn't you say the Tesla X is the first high performance station wagon?
22:28 look at the cars behind him. Goodbye!! Wow
'stationwagon'? more of a hatchback, its a sport hatch.
Too bad it's electric.
Love those station sportcars like the Ferarri FF, and now also the Koenigsegg…. Not a big fan of the Panamera. This Porshce looks awesome but not in this colour.
I want this car actually
13:16 Notice how "Favorites" is spelled INCORRECTLY
