Porsche Taycan
Porsche’s very first fully electric car makes a strong first impression. If most customers will be pleased with the 4S variants and their outputs of 522 and 563 horsepower, the Taycan Turbo and Turbo S editions boast 670- and 750-hp drivetrains. The Taycan’s estimated driving range varies from 407 to 463 kilometres on a full charge. This sports sedan may be eco-friendly, it still provides a driving experience that makes a Porsche a Porsche.
