2020 Porsche Taycan 4S 93KWH Electricity · WR20 WTL

The 2020 Porsche Taycan 4S 93kWh presents a clean and stable maintenance trend across its entire MOT history. The most recent test on 1 July 2025 at 35,047 miles passed with zero defects, continuing an unbroken record of first-time passes with no advisories or failures. This pattern indicates consistent upkeep and no emerging mechanical or structural concerns through the vehicle's first six years of ownership. The mileage accumulation tells a clear story of low, steady use. The car covered 7,059 miles between the June 2024 test at 27,988 miles and the July 2025 test at 35,047 miles, and 7,675 miles between the July 2023 test at 20,313 miles and the June 2024 test. Annual averages sit comfortably around 5,800 miles, well below the UK typical of 8,000 to 12,000 miles per year. No unusual gaps or sudden spikes appear in the record, suggesting regular rather than sporadic use, though the car may have sat idle for short periods between annual tests. A clean MOT record on an electric performance saloon does not remove the need for a thorough physical inspection. The Taycan 4S rides on air suspension with adaptive dampers, and while no faults have been flagged, air struts and compressor systems can develop slow leaks that MOT testers may not detect under static inspection. The 20-inch or larger alloy wheels common on this model are prone to kerb damage and inner rim corrosion that can cause slow tyre deflation between tests. Brake discs and pads on electric vehicles often show uneven wear and surface corrosion due to reduced friction braking reliance on regenerative systems, even when the car passes its MOT without advisories. Prospective buyers should inspect the underside for any signs of battery casing damage or stone chips, check the condition of all suspension bushes and drop links by feel and visual assessment, and verify that the high-voltage cooling system shows no signs of coolant residue around pipe joints. A pre-purchase inspection by a Porsche specialist using PIWIS diagnostic software will confirm battery health, cell balance, and any stored fault codes that MOT testing cannot access. The record supports a well-maintained vehicle, but the complexity of the Taycan platform demands expertise beyond what a standard MOT certificate can confirm.
