Apparently, it’s not just the Polestar 2 which suffered abrupt stopping issues, as Porsche is recalling approximately 43,000 Taycan and Taycan Cross Turismo models (model year 2020 and 2021) to fix a similar problem. Of 43,000 units, 3,400 are in Germany. The company said the following in an official statement —

With the affected vehicles, there is a possibility that in certain instances a shutdown of the power train, resulting in loss of motive power, may be triggered incorrectly and sporadically.

Unlike the defective Polestar 2 units which required some of the hardware to be replaced, the affected Taycans, according to the company, can be fixed with just a software update. The software update will take about an hour and will, of course, be free of charge. Porsche further said that the issue has already been remedied in the ongoing series.
