Overview
The Porsche Taycan 4S Plus stormed onto the scene as a true electric sports sedan, masterfully blending Stuttgart's legendary performance pedigree with zero-emission driving. This particular 4S Plus trim offered a fantastic balance of thrilling power and daily usability. As this iteration was discontinued in 2024, it's now a seriously tempting proposition on the pre-owned market, with the provided data suggesting an estimated used price around $48,000. It’s an electrifying way to experience Porsche's engineering magic and a car that truly redefined what an EV could be.
What's New for 2024?
For this specific 2024 Porsche Taycan 4S Plus, it represents the final model year of its generation before an updated Taycan range was introduced. As such, major overhauls weren't on the agenda for this outgoing version. However, Porsche did enhance the Taycan lineup with improved Plug & Charge functionality, simplifying the public charging experience by allowing the car to automatically authenticate at compatible stations. Think of it as the polished, definitive edition of the original Taycan masterpiece, making its graceful exit.
Design & Exterior
Oh, absolutely stunning! The Taycan 4S Plus is pure Porsche, with that iconic low, wide (77.4 inches, no mirrors!), and athletic silhouette. Its sleek four-door coupe lines stretch to 195.4 inches in length and it stands a mere 54.3 inches tall. Up front, those signature four-point LED headlights are instantly recognizable, while the full-width rear light bar adds a futuristic touch. The 4S Plus often sported distinctive alloy wheels, underscoring its performance intentions and making it a guaranteed head-turner wherever it roams.
Interior, Tech & Cargo
Step inside the Taycan 4S Plus, and you're greeted by a high-tech, driver-focused cockpit built with impeccable Porsche quality. Multiple crisp digital displays, including a beautifully curved instrument cluster, dominate the dash. The infotainment system is responsive and features essentials like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It officially seats five, though four adults will be more comfortable. For luggage, there's a practical 14.4 cubic feet in the trunk, plus a handy 3 cubic feet frunk up front – perfect for charging cables!
Performance & Driving Experience
Get ready for take-off! The Taycan 4S Plus, equipped with dual Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (one front, one rear), delivers exhilarating all-wheel-drive performance. Its system churns out a potent 420 kW and a hefty 479 lb-ft of torque, catapulting you from 0-60 mph in a neck-snapping 3.8 seconds, all the way to a top speed of 155 mph. Porsche’s chassis wizardry means incredible handling, a comfortable ride thanks to adaptive air suspension, and powerful, confidence-inspiring regenerative braking. It’s a proper Porsche sports car, just electric!
Range, Battery & Charging
The Taycan 4S Plus is powered by an 83.7 kWh usable battery pack. According to Green Cars Compare's calculations, this delivers a real-world range of approximately 245 miles, with an efficiency of around 2.93 miles per kWh. Thanks to its advanced 800-volt architecture, it can utilize its CCS Type 1 port to DC fast charge at speeds up to a blistering 268 kW, meaning a 5-80% top-up can take as little as 22.5 minutes. For home charging, it comes standard with a 9.6 kW on-board charger, with a 19.2 kW unit available as an option.
Safety & Driver-Assistance Features
Peace of mind comes standard, as the Taycan boasts an impressive 5-star overall safety rating from NHTSA. Key standard driver-assistance features on the 4S Plus typically include forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, and lane-keeping assist. For those wanting even more tech, Porsche offered a suite of options like the sophisticated InnoDrive system (adaptive cruise with lane guidance), blind-spot monitoring (Lane Change Assist), and a surround-view camera system, making tight parking spots less of a challenge.
Warranty & Maintenance Coverage
Porsche typically provides a 4-year/50,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty for the Taycan in the US. Critically, the high-voltage battery is covered for 8 years or 100,000 miles, generally protecting against significant degradation (e.g., below 70% capacity). The powertrain falls under the comprehensive new vehicle warranty. Porsche often includes the first scheduled maintenance service (e.g., at 1 year/10,000 miles) complimentary, adding a nice touch to early ownership of this high-performance EV.
