Porsche Taycan Turbo

The Porsche Taycan Turbo is Porsche’s electric sports car that offers a unique level of innovation in electric powertrains and marks the manufacturer’s era of transition from traditional combustion engine models to advanced eco-friendly vehicles.

The powertrain of the Taycan Turbo includes two permanent magnet synchronous electric motors, one on each axle, which produce a total continuous power of 460 kW (625 hp) or 500 kW (680 hp) and 850 N⋅m of torque through a two-speed gearbox mounted on the rear axle using Launch Control. The top speed of the electric car is 260 km/h and the acceleration to 100 km/h is 3.2 seconds.

Using a centralized chassis management system, the Taycan Turbo is able to analyze and synchronize each axle in real time. Two electric motors provide the car with electric all-wheel drive, which interacts with the advanced Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control Sport body roll stabilization technology as well as the adaptive three-chamber air suspension and electronically controlled shock absorber to provide the car with a stable, extremely comfortable ride at full power.

The Taycan Turbo features a 93.4 kW⋅h battery pack that can be charged from 5 to 80% capacity in 22.5 minutes using 270 kW fast charging stations.
With 11 kW AC power sources, it takes 9 hours to charge an electric car at 100% capacity. Fast charging stations of 50 kW take 93 minutes to charge the battery from 5 to 80%. The full battery capacity provides the electric car with a range of up to 450 km in the mixed WLTP cycle.

The electric car can only be attributed to Porsche because of its familiar silhouette, although it may be the company’s first hard-to-recognize car.

The unusualness of the exterior design is that the car seems unusually wide and in part extremely flat. This is due to the peculiarity of the powertrain, which requires special attention to aerodynamic performance, as well as the layout of the battery and the electric drive.
The electric car is four-door and has two luggage compartments, which makes it many times more practical than a conventional Porsche.

While the Taycan Turbo has retained the company’s styling on the outside, inside is a completely new car from another era, where digital technology reigns supreme and there’s no room for the analog atavisms of the internal combustion engine era.

Simultaneously on the torpedo is a 16.8-inch all-digital instrument panel display with four display options, a 10.9-inch central multimedia display, and a third personal passenger display. The center tunnel is fully touch-screen, and most of the electric car’s functions can be controlled with a voice assistant.

The Porsche Taycan Turbo has an unusual “chip” arrangement for the rear passengers, the so-called “foot garage” – a special recess in the battery (where the feet of the rear passengers are located), which increases rear seating comfort and allows for a low car height.

Home and Destination Charging (0 -> 100%)

A public charging station is required to use the highest possible charging rate. The EVSE/charging station’s charging capacity affects how long it takes to fully charge the battery. The table below shows all possible options for fully charging the Porsche Taycan Turbo.

In Europe, plugging an electric car into an outlet is often as easy as plugging it into a household outlet, but there are differences from country to country. The table below shows the different ways to charge the Porsche Taycan Turbo, but in some countries some chargers may not be available.

Fast Charging (10 -> 80%)

If you want to enjoy driving an electric car, one of the most important features to consider is the number of miles per hour the car can travel while charged. This is called the “range” of the car. All electric cars have a certain range, even if they are 100% charged. This is because they do not have an internal combustion engine to lean on if you need to drive a long distance.
