2025 PORSCHE TAYCAN 4 CROSS TURISMO 70 MPH HIGHWAY RANGE TEST

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Porsche Taycan 4 Cross Turismo delivers an impressive real-world highway range, exceeding its EPA rating despite less-than-ideal conditions. The reviewer conducted a 70 mph range test, noting that the vehicle achieved 302 miles, surpassing the 268-mile highway EPA rating. Key factors contributing to this strong performance include the upgraded 105 kWh battery pack (97 kWh usable) and increased vehicle efficiency for the 2025 model year. The reviewer highlighted the vehicle's smooth and quiet ride, enhanced by optional acoustic glass. However, the test was conducted with winter tires and 20-inch wheels, which are noted to reduce range by 5-15 miles. The ambient temperature also started cooler than ideal, though it warmed up during the test. The reviewer was particularly impressed by the Taycan's ability to achieve this range despite these challenges, praising Porsche's significant improvements. The vehicle's charging speed and overall driving dynamics were also lauded, reinforcing its position as a top-tier EV.
