Porsche Taycan bike rack review: proper gadget or an expensive gimmick?

The Cross Turismo doesn't come with a tow bar, so how does this device work? More importantly, is it worth it?

Gimmick or gadget?

Gadget. Chiefly because – as with so much Porsche does – it’s a pleasure to use. However, submissions to the US patents office suggest Porsche has applied for a tow bar that might work with the rear diffuser on its cars. By making that rear aero element mobile, it could be lowered to allow a tow bar to pop out, then raised back into position.

The used price of these in the UK and USA have been depreciating badly.

Same thing here in SA ?

Looks like they're holding on rather well still.

Granted it's not like there is a ton of them out on the market.

New lap records for Porsche 911 GT3 RS and Taycan Turbo S at Buddh International Circuit

Two Porsche products have smashed the production car records for internal combustion and electric models at the Buddh International Circuit (BIC) in India.

In a joint effort between Porsche and AutoCar India, the records were set in a Porsche 911 GT3 RS and a Taycan Turbo S driven by India’s first Formula 1 driver Narain Karthikeyan, with the lap times validated by the Federation of Motor Sports Clubs of India, which is affiliated with the FIA.

Driving the GT3 RS, Narain Karthikeyan broke the previous record of 2m 00.266 seconds - set by Karthikeyan himself in a 911 GT2 RS in 2019 - and registered a new lap time of 1m 59.854 seconds.

The new record makes the 386kW Porsche 911 GT3 RS the fastest production car around the Buddh International Circuit and the only one to lap the circuit under two minutes.

“In the back section of the circuit, the GT3 RS comes into its own and it must be, I guess, 20-25km/h faster than the GT2 RS in the long D and the fast corners. That’s why you gain a lot of time. It’s a track weapon, fantastic to drive. I’m a big Porsche fan, they’ve done a great job with this car,” said Karthikeyan.
