2020 PORSCHE TAYCAN ALL-ELECTRIC REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The Porsche Taycan Turbo is presented as the personification of electrification, blending Porsche's performance heritage with a futuristic all-electric powertrain. The reviewer highlights its exceptional handling, describing it as "painted to the road" with a comfortable yet grippy ride thanks to the adaptive air suspension. The 800-volt system enables faster charging, and the dual-speed transmission on the rear axle contributes to both acceleration and efficiency. While the interior is praised for its solid, high-end German engineering, the rear seating is noted as being tight. The reviewer found the real-world range to be adequate, exceeding 400-450 km in warm weather, even with spirited driving. The Taycan Turbo is positioned as a high-performance, high-priced luxury EV, with the Turbo model reviewed costing over $193,000 CAD. Despite the steep price, the reviewer concludes it's a "fantasy vehicle" and an "ultimate vehicle" with no significant dislikes, recommending it wholeheartedly for those who can afford it.
