Rear wheel drive Taycan joins an award-winning range

Rear wheel drive Taycan joins an award-winning range

11/2/2021

The new rear-wheel drive Taycan has been announced, joining the award-winning Taycan family. Featuring the greatest electric range within the series, and the same impressive design and personalisation options, the new Porsche Taycan is a striking model to compliment the Taycan 4S, Taycan Turbo and Taycan Turbo S.

A truly sporty electric vehicle, with overboost under Launch Control and powered by the optional Performance Battery Plus, it delivers a remarkable 476PS – enough to propel the Taycan from 0-62mph in 5.4s.

Speed is balanced by an inspiring driving range: the new model can drive up to 301 miles (WLTP) on a single charge when equipped with the Performance Battery Plus - the highest of all Taycan models. In just 22.5 minutes*, it can get from 5% to 80% charge at a rate of up to 270kW at an appropriate High Power Charger.

The first all-electric Porsche sports car range has fascinated customers and fans alike since it was launched just over a year ago. The latest model joins an already impressive family with the Taycan 4S recently named ‘Performance Car of the Year’ by What Car? magazine in its annual Car of the Year Awards.

In presenting the Taycan 4S with the Performance Car of the Year Award, the judges commented: “The Taycan is proof that electric performance cars can be just as rewarding and usable as the best petrol rivals, and then some. It offers exceptionally precise, tactile steering and incredible poise and grip in corners. But you also get a smooth ride, a gorgeous interior and space for four.”

The new rear wheel drive Taycan is priced from £70,690.00 RRP incl. VAT and is available to order now from our Porsche Centre. Contact a member of our team for more information on the new Taycan.
