With the new Taycan, Porsche is presenting the fourth version of its first all-electric sports sedan, following the Taycan Turbo S, Taycan Turbo and Taycan 4S. This model relies on rear-wheel drive and is available with two battery sizes: with the standard performance battery, the new entry-level model produces up to 300 kW (408 hp) in overboost with Launch Control, and up to 350 kW (476 hp) with the optional performance battery Plus. The respective rated output is 240 kW (326 hp) or 280 kW (380 hp). As the youngest member of the model family, the Taycan features the innovations introduced in the other versions at the model year change right from the start. The Plug & Charge function, for example, allows convenient charging and payment without a card or app: as soon as the charging cable is plugged in, the Taycan communicates in encrypted form with the Plug & Charge-enabled charging station. The charging process then starts automatically. The same applies to payment.
