The Porsche Taycan Sport Turismo GTS 105 kWh (700 Hp) represents Porsche’s commitment to high-performance electric vehicles, blending the iconic Porsche driving experience with cutting-edge battery technology. Introduced with the 2024 facelift (Y1A generation), the Sport Turismo body style offers increased practicality compared to the standard Taycan sedan, positioning itself as a versatile and luxurious option within the premium electric station wagon segment. This model builds upon the initial Taycan launch, refining its performance, range, and technology to compete with rivals like the Tesla Model S and Audi e-tron GT.
Porsche Taycan Sport Turismo GTS: An Overview
The Taycan Sport Turismo GTS is a fully electric, five-door station wagon designed to deliver both exhilarating performance and everyday usability. It distinguishes itself with a powerful dual-motor all-wheel-drive system, a large 105 kWh battery pack, and Porsche’s signature attention to detail. The “GTS” designation signifies a performance-oriented trim level, offering a balance between the base Taycan models and the more extreme Turbo and Turbo S variants. The Sport Turismo body style, essentially a wagon version of the Taycan, provides a larger cargo area and a more practical rear seating arrangement, appealing to buyers who prioritize space and versatility without sacrificing performance.
Engine & Performance
At the heart of the Taycan Sport Turismo GTS lies a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive powertrain. Each axle is powered by a permanently excited synchronous motor, delivering a combined system output of 700 horsepower and 790 Nm (582.67 lb.-ft.) of torque. This potent electric powertrain enables remarkable acceleration figures: 0 to 60 mph in a calculated 3.1 seconds, 0 to 62 mph in 3.3 seconds, and 0 to 100 km/h in 3.3 seconds. The car achieves a maximum speed of 250 km/h (155.34 mph). The 105 kWh gross (97 kWh net/usable) lithium-ion battery, operating at 800V architecture, allows for rapid charging and a WLTP-rated all-electric range of 525-603 km (326.22 – 374.69 miles). The system boasts a recuperation output of up to 400 kW, maximizing energy recovery during deceleration. A two-speed automatic transmission is employed on the rear axle to optimize both acceleration and efficiency.
Design & Features
The Taycan Sport Turismo GTS features the sleek, aerodynamic design language characteristic of Porsche. The body style is a five-door station wagon (estate), offering a more spacious and practical alternative to the traditional Taycan sedan. Key design elements include the sculpted body panels, low-slung silhouette, and distinctive Porsche lighting signature. Inside, the cabin is characterized by a minimalist and luxurious aesthetic, dominated by a curved digital instrument cluster and a large central touchscreen display. The interior emphasizes high-quality materials and craftsmanship. Standard features include advanced driver-assistance systems such as ABS, and electric power steering. The air suspension provides a comfortable ride and adjustable ride height. The Sport Turismo’s rear cargo area offers 405 liters (14.3 cu. ft.) of space with the rear seats up, expanding to 1171 liters (41.35 cu. ft.) when folded down.
