Video Summary
The Porsche Taycan GTS Sport Turismo has a charge port door that opens and closes with a finger swipe. It is space efficient enough to fit into tight driveways and still allow room to walk. Approaching the car unlocks the doors and deploys the door handles. The doors open to create a wide access point. The cup holders fit a large water bottle and water bottles also fit into the door.After overnight charging from a level 2 outlet, the battery capacity shows an estimated range of 231 miles, while the EPA rates this at 233 miles. Charging overnight from a level 2 outlet takes around 10 and a half hours. The turning radius is very tight, and with the rear wheel steering system, the car cuts into the corners. It accelerates to 60 mph in 3.43 seconds.
With the back seats down, a bicycle fits inside with the front tire removed. Installing two car seats is easy due to the vehicle’s low height, but the passenger seat can feel a bit cramped.
Porsche provides three years of free fast charging at Electrify America stations, but these stations are not fully reliable. This model has limited storage. Ride quality is smooth, while still remaining sporty. The turning is magic and there is incredible steering feel. This car is worth the long way home from work and is thrilling to drive.
