A Guide to the Porsche Taycan
Power and Performance
In its base form, the Taycan features an electric motor that can transmit 402 horsepower and 302 lb-ft of torque to the rear wheels. With that level of incredible level of performance, the car can sprint from 0 to 60 in just 5.1 seconds when using the standard launch control system. The Performance Battery Plus option increases the gross battery capacity from 79.2 kWh to 93.4 kWh and maximum horsepower to 469.
Other Taycan models offer standard all-wheel drive and a significant boost in power, such as the 522-horsepower 4S and 590-horsepower GTS, both of which have blistering 0 to 60 times of less than four seconds.
Range and Charging
While the standard 79.2-kWh battery enables the base Taycan to travel up to 208 miles on a single charge, the 93.4-kWh battery extends that range to 242 miles. Despite its higher output, the GTS model has an estimated range of up to 246 miles. All batteries can be charged from 0% to 100% overnight with an AC charger, but Taycan owners can make use of a DC outlet to charge the battery from 5% to 80% in as little as 93 minutes.
A DC fast charger will be able to charge from 5% to 80% in less than 23 minutes.
Chassis
The Taycan is one of the finest handling sedans on the market thanks to its highly refined control-arm front suspension and multi-link rear suspension. When the car is thrown into corners, the suspension keeps it planted and predictable while maintaining a smooth ride. Direct, well-weighted steering further enhances the driving experience. At around 14 inches, the standard front and rear brakes are sizable and bring the Taycan to a quick stop.
Interior
Inside the Taycan is sleek, ultra-modern interior with comfortable seating for four and a plethora of great features. Three-stage heating and 8-way power adjustability for the front seats, dual-zone climate control, and ambient lighting are all standard. A varied selection of upholstery includes premium textile, Race-Tex, and genuine leather. You’ll find a respective 2.9 and 14.3 cubic feet of cargo space in the front and rear luggage compartments.
As for infotainment, the Taycan will come with a 10.9-inch touchscreen system that grants access to Android Auto/Apple CarPlay integration and connected navigation featuring detailed 3D maps. An available Burmester 3D surround sound system and rear entertainment system with dual 10.1-inch screens help pass the time during longer trips.
With its combination of stunning performance, impressive range, and practicality, the Taycan is the perfect everyday Porsche. Visit Porsche Tysons Corner in Vienna, VA today and discover it for yourself!
