The Porsche Taycan is a battery-electric sports car from the automobile manufacturer Porsche . It was presented to the public on September 4, 2019 and initially offered in the Turbo and Turbo S versions. The four-door coupé is half a class below the Porsche Panamera in the Porsche portfolio .

history

On December 4, 2015, Porsche announced that a series vehicle would be created based on the Mission E concept study .

In addition to the fully electric drive, the outstanding development goal is for the car to be able to drive autonomously for a long time without the driver's attention ( level 4). According to Porsche CEO Oliver Blume , you should be able to drive the car yourself at any time.

In Norway, the vehicle can be reserved since mid-April 2018 for a deposit of 20,000  Norwegian kroner (around € 2,000).

On June 8, 2018, Porsche announced that the production model would be called Porsche Taycan.

On September 4, 2019, the Taycan Turbo models with a maximum engine power of 500 kW and the Taycan Turbo S with a maximum engine power of 560 kW were presented to the public.

The Taycan is to be launched in Japan in 2020 . ABB announced on April 12, 2019 that it would start operating a fast charging network in Japan from mid-2020.

The first Turbo S were delivered in the USA at the end of December 2019.

Surname

There were 600 ideas for the vehicle name, from which marketing experts finally chose “Taycan” as a favorite. Two native speakers of each of these languages ​​were consulted for over 20 languages ​​in order to rule out any negative associations with possible model names. The name is systematically developed: the ay is known from Cayenne and Cayman , the can from the Macan . The word comes from Turkish and means "soul of a lively foal" ( tay = foal; can = soul). This derivation fits in with the advertising slogan soul, electrified. The word pronounced "Taican" means roughly "physical experience" in Japanese.

technology

The Porsche Taycan has four doors and is driven by two synchronous motors with a system voltage of 800  volts . The maximum total output is 500 kW (680 PS) or 560 kW (760 PS). The Taycan Turbo S accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in 2.8 seconds.

The Taycan's drive battery has a usable capacity of 83.7 kWh (93.4 kWh gross) and is embedded between the axles in the vehicle floor. The lithium-ion cells come from the Korean manufacturer LG Chem and are pre-assembled into battery modules by the German Dräxlmaier group . In order to improve the sitting position on the back seat, no battery modules were installed in the footwell of the second row of seats, creating indentations called foot garages . The Porsche Taycan has four seats; a 4 + 1 seat configuration is available at an additional cost.

The dashboard has a curved, digitally controlled display behind the steering wheel and two other displays in the middle. An additional display on the passenger side is available at an additional cost.
