Which Porsche Taycan Is Right for You?
SHARP & Porsche Canada
Just like its iconic 911 sportscar, Porsche offers a huge level of variety and customization in the Taycan range. Whether your priorities tend towards on-track performance, carrying capacity for your chosen sports, or a supreme blend of luxury and capability, there’s an all-electric Porsche sports car for you. The only question is: which Taycan fits you best?
The Urban Professional – Taycan 4S
With sleek lines and a whisper-quiet drive, the 4S offers a thoroughly modern EV driving experience. 345 km of range with the Performance Battery option means it’ll dispense of any weekly commute with ease. Add in Porsche’s Innodrive adaptive cruise control for maximum smoothness, and the 4S is your stress-free transport at the end of a long day. But because it’s a Porsche, it’ll still run to 100 km/h in four-seconds flat, should you have an onramp that needs blitzing.
The Outdoorsman – Taycan 4S Cross Turismo
Offering more cargo space in the rear — for a total of 1212 L with the seats folded down — the Turismo variants of the Taycan range have more room for your gear. If that gear includes equipment for fly-fishing expeditions or cross-country skiing, the Cross Turismo offers 20mm more ground clearance than a standard Taycan and a lift mode for even more height. With 420 kW (563 hp) of overboost power on tap, the Cross Turismo offers sport sedan performance on the way to the trailhead, and rugged capability to get you those last few kilometres down the gravel.
The Track Rat / Performance Enthusiast – Taycan GTS
Porsche’s GT cars, such as the just-released 718 Cayman GT4 RS, offer ferociously uncompromised on-track performance. What to park next to it for daily duties if you’re a Porsche performance fan? The Taycan GTS offers unique, performance-tuned driveline and suspension, and a racy GTS-specific interior. More practical than a two-seats-only GT car, but just as invigorating to drive with up to 590 hp in overboost mode.
The Triathlete – Taycan GTS Sport Turismo
As with its sedan variant, the GTS Sport Turismo offers the kind of adrenaline-pump driving experience that raises your hackles. But if you’re the type who also likes to push your physical body to the extreme, the Turismo’s extra carrying capacity pairs perfectly with a feathery-light carbon fibre racing bike and extra storage space for all your equipment.
The Downhill Sportsman – Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo
Gravity junkies look no further: with a blistering 670 hp of overboost power, the Turbo Cross Turismo offers enough speed and all-weather capability to make sure your tracks are the first down the mountain on powder day. With plenty of room for skis or a pair of downhill mountain bikes on the roof rack, it’s a downhiller’s dream.
The Executive – Taycan Turbo S
Launched with the wild, whale-tailed 911 Turbo models of the 1970s and 1980s, the “Turbo” script on the back of a Porsche has always meant maximum performance. The Taycan Turbo S is the fastest-accelerating model in the Taycan range, capable of sprinting to 100 km/h in 2.8 seconds. Yet this is no stripped-down track machine — the Turbo S offers authoritative performance, but never at the expense of luxury. Specced with adaptive sport seats and an extended leather interior, the Turbo S is ideal transportation for those who have already arrived at the top.
