Porsche launches second Taycan generation
London, November 18, 2024, (Oilandgaspress) –––Sharper design, more power, more range and even better charging performance, Porsche extensively modernised the Taycan at the beginning of 2024. Now three new versions complete the 16-version family: The new edition of the Taycan GTS builds on the model-spanning success story that is the Gran Turismo Sport at Porsche. In addition, the entry-level sports sedan is also available with all-wheel drive for the first time.
The range of Taycan models has never been wider: with three body variants, all-wheel and rear-wheel drive and various power levels of the Porsche E-Performance motors ranging from 300 to 760 kW, there are now 16 versions all told.
The Taycan 4 sports sedan and the new edition of the Taycan GTS and Taycan GTS Sport Turismo have just been added. The three new options complete the Taycan portfolio and can now be ordered, with availability at dealerships set to start in early 2025. New exterior colours are also available for all Taycan models. In the Legends category, Slate Grey Neo and Pale Blue Metallic complete the range, while Purple Sky Metallic has been added to the Dreams category.
The three new models naturally have all of the many enhancements in terms of design, technology and equipment with which Porsche updated the Taycan at the beginning of the year. The electric sports car surpasses its predecessor in almost every discipline. The new models have more power, longer range, accelerate faster and charge in less time with greater stability. All Taycan versions feature an even more extensive standard equipment list and come with the latest generation of the Porsche Driver Experience.
The simultaneous improvement of performance and efficiency is down to a number of factors: an advanced powertrain with a new rear-axle motor with up to 80 kW more power than its predecessor on all models, a modified pulse inverter with optimised software, more powerful batteries, revised thermal management, a next-generation heat pump and a modified recuperation and all-wheel-drive strategy. At 800-volt DC charging stations, for example, it can be charged at up to 320 kW. The maximum recuperation capacity during deceleration from high speeds has increased to up to 400 kW.
New edition of the Taycan GTS: sporty all-rounder: GTS stands for Gran Turismo Sport. Since the Porsche 904 Carrera GTS of 1963, these three letters have enjoyed a special reputation among Porsche fans. Now there is also a variant in the Taycan model range with this legendary combination of letters. Or two, to be precise: The new Taycan GTS is available as a sports sedan and as a Sport Turismo.
