Porsche Taycan

The Porsche Taycan is an all-electric sports car produced by the German automaker Porsche. It was first introduced as a concept car in 2015, and the production version was introduced in September 2019. The Taycan is Porsche’s first all-electric car and is available in several different versions, including the Taycan 4S, Taycan Turbo, and Taycan Turbo S.

The Taycan is built on a new electric platform developed by Porsche called the J1 platform, which is also shared with the Audi e-tron GT. The car is powered by two electric motors, one in the front and one in the rear, which together produces up to 300 kW in the top-end Turbo S model. The car accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.4 seconds and reaches a top speed of 230 km/h.

The Taycan’s battery capacity ranges from 79.2 kWh to 93.4 kWh, depending on the model. The car can be charged on a DC fast charger with up to 270 kWh, which provides an 80% charge in just 22.5 minutes. The car’s range depends on the model and battery size, with the most powerful model (Taycan 4S with a 93.4 kWh battery) capable of driving up to 395 km on a single charge, according to EPA estimates.

Overall, the Porsche Taycan represents a significant step forward for electric vehicles, offering impressive performance and range, and showcasing Porsche’s design and engineering expertise.

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.

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, 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.

Max. Power: The maximum power provided by the charging point
Avg. Power: The average power provided by the charging point during a session of 10% to 80%.
Time: the time it takes to charge from 10% to 80%
Speed: the average charging rate during the session of 10% to 80%
