The Taycan Sport Turismo is the latest body variant of the innovative electric sports car from Porsche. The model family now boasts a third design alongside the Taycan sports saloon and Cross Turismo. The new derivative is aimed at people who want to combine the everyday usability of the Taycan Cross Turismo with the on-road dynamics of the sports saloon. The first member of the Taycan Sport Turismo family, the GTS, will be launched at the end of February 2022, with further models following just three weeks later in mid-March 2022. A panoramic roof with Light Control is available as a new optional extra for the Taycan Sport Turismo. electric glare protection.
Panoramic roof with Light Control: transparent or opaque at the touch of a finger
The new panoramic roof with Light Control has electric glare protection as a special feature. Unique in the automotive sector, the large glass surface is divided into nine sections that can be individually controlled. Specific sections or the entire roof can be made transparent or opaque. When set to the latter, the interior remains flooded with light. This new technology barely reduces brightness. As glare is prevented by the 'Light Control' function, the roof appears significantly brighter than the basic alternative. Twice as much light enters the interior.
A range of up to 498 kilometres based on WLTP figures
Being part of the latest Taycan generation, the all-wheel drive Sport Turismo models have a particularly efficient drive strategy. In Normal and Range driving modes, the front electric motor is almost completely disconnected and de-energised in the partial load range. When coasting and at a standstill, there is no drive torque on either axle. This electric freewheel reduces frictional drag losses. Only when the driver requests more power or changes the driving programme do the motors switch on again - and within milliseconds. Thermal management and charging functions have also been improved. As a result, for the first time, the 4S model with Performance Battery Plus achieves the greatest range of all Taycan models.
