Fully Electric Porsche Taycan

The Porsche Taycan is a game-changer. In early 2019, Porsche announced that it will definitely increase the production of its much-awaited fully electric sports car from the planned 20,000 units due to a surge in global demand. That production recalibration was made even before the car hit the roads, signaling a more than healthy appetite among car enthusiasts to own a luxury electric supercar—and it’s not hard to understand why.

For one, it remains a Porsche thoroughbred machine through and through. Thanks to the two Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors installed and the Performance Battery integrated deep into the car’s underbody, the result is a superb all-wheel-drive that melds performance, speed, and efficiency into one. The Taycan 4S hits the century mark in merely four seconds while clocking a top speed of 250km/h. Also, the Taycan 4S can drive up to a combined range of 365 km (with the standard Performance Battery) and up to a combined range of 414 km (with the optional Performance Battery Plus)—all in a single charge. Also, a battery goes from a state of charge of 5 per cent to 80 per cent in merely 22.5 minutes at 800-volt high-power charging stations, with a maximum charging capacity of 270 kW.

The fully electric car is clearly zero-emission, a trait that Porsche is proud of. The marque also ensures that the Taycan is manufactured in a carbon dioxide-neutral production facility. In Singapore, there is a strategic partnership with Marina Bay Sands to set up Porsche Destination Charging stations at the integrated resort with the stations complimentary for all-electric and hybrid vehicles.
