Driving a Porsche Taycan EV Up the UK’s Most Dangerous Road – Hardknott Pass! ⚡🏔️
In this heart-pounding video, I take my all-electric Porsche Taycan up Hardknott Pass – the steepest, narrowest, and most treacherous road in the entire UK. With gradients hitting 33%, hairpin bends sharper than a switchblade, and drops that’ll make your palms sweat, this is no ordinary drive.
But can a wide, low-slung, high-performance EV like the Taycan survive this death-defying route?
With barely enough room for two cars to pass, sheer rock walls, blind corners, and the ever-present risk of sliding backwards down the mountain – this is as extreme as it gets.
Will the Taycan’s electric torque be enough? Or will this legendary road claim another victim?
🔋 100% electric. 100% terrifying.
👉 Buckle up – this isn’t just a drive, it’s a battle between machine and mountain.
📍 Filmed in the stunning yet brutal Lake District National Park, UK.

Also done the Applecross route on the NC 500… also in the wet…
