    I love my Taycan HUD. So glad I opted for it in my build specs. In this car, you will easily get to a higher speed than intended. The HUD puts it right in your line of vision and reminds you. You get continuous awareness of the speed and status without looking down from the horizon. Just such an aid to situational awareness and safe driving.

    I have a 23 turbo GT, the heads up display is worth every cent. I don’t know how I ever lived without one. Definitely a must option. It’s very difficult to photograph how clear display really is. It is extremely easy to see, but doesn’t get in your way.

  • @bostondan77
    @bostondan77 2 года назад +3

    Most important part of this video is your explanation of how the HUD adds bolstering/ a hood to the instrument cluster- a lot of people may not like this. IMO, it takes from the modern look of the cluster inside a Taycan. My dealer didn’t go over this difference with me, I regret ordering the HUD and it’s past the freeze date. On the bright side, a HUD is useful to always see your speed especially in an electric car.

      Hi Bostondon, does the hood really ruin the look that much? I am close to my freeze date. I was close to HUD but got nervous when seeing comments about the "hood"

    Simply put, if you can comfortably afford it, then yes, it's totally worth it. If you're stretching your budget, then no, it's cool but not as important as putting that money away and reinvesting it.

    Hey Mason - My Cross Turismo Turbo is now built and awaiting a ship. I got the HUD and Night Vision Assist, and wonder if the Night Vision can be displayed on the HUD? If the Night Vision detects a deer approaching the street, I understand that I will get some sort of warning, but don't know how that works. If you could make a video showing that, I'd appreciate it!

      You're welcome! The biggest difference between the two is the appearance of the clock. The Porsche Design Clock has a black face with Porsche Design on the face. The standard clock has a digital stop watch the Porsche Design watch does not.
