What's New for 2025?

This isn't just a new model year; it’s the heavily revamped Taycan! For 2025, the Sport Turismo Turbo benefits massively from this update. We're talking significantly more power, a bigger 97 kWh usable battery for a much-improved real-world range, and even quicker DC charging capabilities now rocketing up to 320 kW. Porsche has also fettled the standard adaptive air suspension for an even better blend of ride comfort and dynamic prowess, and chucked in more standard kit to sweeten the deal. It’s the Taycan Turbo, but better in every way.

Design & Exterior

Phwoar! The Taycan Sport Turismo Turbo boasts that sleek, shooting brake silhouette that’s arguably even cooler than the saloon, offering extra practicality without sacrificing an ounce of style. Turbo models get unique, more aggressive front and rear aprons, chunkier side skirts, and stunning alloy wheel designs. Dimensions are generous: 4963 mm long, 1966 mm wide, and a low-slung 1392 mm tall. Coupled with the latest HD Matrix LED headlights, it’s a head-turner with serious road presence, whether parked up or demolishing an autobahn.

Interior, Tech & Cargo

Inside, the Taycan Sport Turismo Turbo is pure Porsche: driver-focused, impeccably built with top-notch materials, and oozing tech. The updated Porsche Driver Experience includes a gorgeous curved 12.6-inch digital driver's display, a 10.9-inch central infotainment screen, and an optional screen for the passenger. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, naturally. Cargo? You get a practical 405-litre boot, expanding to 1171 litres with the seats down, plus a very handy 84-litre frunk up front. Five can fit, but four travel in supreme comfort.

Performance & Driving Experience

Hold on tight! The Taycan Sport Turismo Turbo launches from 0-100 km/h in a frankly ludicrous 2.7 seconds. This savage acceleration comes courtesy of its dual Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (one front, one rear) delivering all-wheel drive, a combined peak output of 650 kW, and a colossal 940 Nm of torque. The standard Porsche Active Ride suspension keeps things incredibly composed, offering both sublime comfort and physics-defying handling up to its 260 km/h top speed. It’s an absolute missile that also knows how to cruise.

Range, Battery & Charging

Powering this beast is a 97 kWh (usable) battery pack. Green Cars Compare calculates a real-world range of around 495 km, with an impressive efficiency of 5.1 km/kWh. Charging is a breeze: the standard 11 kW AC on-board charger fills it up in about 9 hours, or opt for the 22 kW unit to halve that. Thanks to its 800V architecture and CCS Type 2 port, DC fast charging is epic, hitting up to 320 kW, meaning a 10-80% top-up can take as little as 18 minutes. It also supports 150 kW on 400V chargers.

Safety & Driver-Assistance Features

Peace of mind comes as standard with the Taycan Sport Turismo Turbo, which boasts a top-tier 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating. Key standard driver-assistance systems include Lane Keep Assist, Traffic Sign Recognition, and ParkAssist with a reversing camera. For those wanting the full suite of digital co-pilots, Porsche offers optional extras like the brilliant InnoDrive with Active Lane Keeping and Adaptive Cruise Control, Night Vision Assist, and a 360-degree Surround View camera system, making every journey safer and more relaxed.

Warranty & Maintenance Coverage

Porsche typically backs the Taycan Sport Turismo Turbo with a 2-year/unlimited kilometre vehicle warranty in Europe, which can often be extended for extra reassurance. The crucial battery pack is covered for 8 years or 160,000 km, guaranteeing at least 70% of its original capacity. Being electric, maintenance is generally less intensive than its petrol-powered cousins, focusing on tyres, brakes, and software. Porsche’s dealer network is well-equipped to handle EV servicing, and Taycan reliability has proven solid, especially with recent updates.
