The Stuff Top EV for 2020 is the Porsche Taycan.
Porsche is about to recall the Taycan sports sedan over sudden unexpected losses of power, as global sales in the first quarter almost match the iconic 911 sports car. According to a report from
Bloomberg, nine Taycan drivers in the U.S. complained about stalling earlier this year, with the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration describing the problem in May as “loss of motive power while in motion at any speed.” Six cars wouldn’t restart after the issue. The filing from the NHTSA added that all complaints said the problem happened without warning or any error messages.

The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) told
Teslarati earlier today that it is investigating 2020 and 2021 Porsche Taycan models for 12-volt battery issues that are leading to a “loss of motive power,” according to an Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) Resume document.
There have been nine total complaints from owners who have driven either 2020 or 2021 Porsche Taycans. According to the ODI document, the 12v battery is losing power and is causing the entire vehicle to halt operation. This has lead to a loss of motive power when the vehicle is in motion but has not resulted in any crashes, injuries, or fatalities, the document says. There have also been a few reports of the same issue from TREAD (Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability and Documentation) field reports. The loss of motive power occurs at any speed without warning to the driver.
