    This will have an effect on Tesla Model S sales but it's good to see competition in the marketplace. Porsche has had the benefit of letting Tesla stumble on some technology. One of the results is being first to market with the 800V systems which I'm sure Tesla will counter with their claims, right up until they switch over.

    We, the US consumer, will benefit from the VW diesel gate scandal in this space. VW Group, which Porsche is a part of, has committed to spend over $1B deploying rapid charging stations across the US as "payment" for their digressions. That's a bill the buyers of EV's won't have to bear so it's all good. The fact they will be the only 800V systems to start will give VW group a leg up.

    Audi and VW have EV's in the wings but the initial batch will be on 400V technology as they have lower performance requirements they have to meet but the word on the street is the 2nd Gen VW group EV's will transition to the 800V architecture quickly.

    BTW, one of the performance specs Porsche placed on it's engineers is the ability to deliver full power repeatedly on a track, something the Tesla can't do. Tesla's post big numbers on its first pass but goes into cool down mode with significantly reduced power pretty quickly. The Taycan can supposedly deliver full power right up until it runs out of charge.

    Now Porsche is entering Formula E. Should see some trickle down from that to their street cars. Of course they do have some experience with electric power from the 919 hybrid LeMans car.

    They are getting there, albeit a bit slower than the greenies want.
