CarTell take
We haven't driven the Taycan yet. On paper, cross Turismo and Sport Turismo bodies add roughly $5,000 to the Sedan equivalent. Options can lift the Turbo GT past $450,000 drive-away. Audit the 3 year warranty against rival 5 year cover if you plan to keep the car long term.
Why consider it
- 800V architecture with a 320 kW DC peak, the fastest charging in the segment.
- WLTP range now stretches to 678 km on the rear drive Performance Battery Plus.
- Three body styles (Sedan, Cross Turismo, Sport Turismo).
What to know
- 3 year warranty trails every rival.
- Heavily optioned grades inflate past $250,000 drive-away.
- Charging benefit hard to realise without a 350 kW+ DC charger nearby.
Who it suits
EV early adopters who want the fastest DC charging in the segment, drivers chasing genuine Porsche chassis dynamics, and lifestyle buyers who want the Cross Turismo wagon body.
