Meanwhile, for customers seeking a practical entry-level model with the benefits of all-wheel drive, Porsche introduces the Taycan 4. This new version is the first Taycan sports sedan to feature all-wheel drive at the entry-level. In terms of performance, the Taycan 4 is comparable to the standard Taycan but features improved traction and stability from its dual-motor setup, which powers both the front and rear axles.
With launch control, the Taycan 4 offers an over-boost output of up to 300kW with the standard performance battery or 320kW with the optional performance battery plus. Range varies depending on the battery option as well. With the performance battery, the Taycan 4 can cover up to 559km, while the performance battery plus extends this range to an impressive 643km – just 35km shy of the top-range Taycan models, making it a strong contender among all-wheel drive Taycan options.
The Taycan 4 also boasts an acceleration time of 4.6s from 0–100km/h, shaving two-tenths of a second off the rear-wheel drive model’s time, despite carrying an extra 80kg. This added performance, coupled with the all-wheel-drive configuration, provides drivers with enhanced traction and a more stable driving experience.
Porsche has introduced new exterior colours for all Taycan models, allowing for greater personalisation. The ‘Legends’ category now includes Slate Grey Neo and Pale Blue Metallic, while Purple Sky Metallic has joined the ‘Dreams’ category. Standard features across the range include 19-inch Taycan aero wheels, black brake callipers, matrix LED headlights, Porsche Traction Management, and Adaptive Air Suspension with Porsche Active Suspension Management.
