A new way to enjoy Porsche’s electric advancements.
The new 2022 Porsche Taycan GTS and GTS Sport Turismo have been unveiled as new variants that sit between the Taycan 4S and Taycan Turbo. There are many similarities between the GTS and the Turbo models, but there’s also plenty of new additions that allow the new variant to truly stand out in the Taycan lineup. For power, the GTS sedan and GTS Sport Turismo both rely on the same front and rear motors that provide 590 horsepower. This slots the GTS right between the Taycan 4S (462 hp) and Taycan Turbo (670 hp).
Just like the Taycan Turbo models, however, the Taycan GTS comes with the 93.4 kWh Performance Battery Plus. This battery is able to launch the new Porsche from 0 to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds and can charge from 5 to 80 percent in 22.5 minutes. Allowing the Taycan GTS models to stand out are a few exterior and interior enhancements when compared to other Taycans in the lineup. This includes the high-gloss black SportDesign front fascia, Sport Design side skirts, rear diffuser insert, and side window trim. Badging for the GTS models is done with a matte black finish that matches the satin-black finish on the standard 20-inch Taycan Turbo S Aero Design wheels. Inside, Porsche gave the Taycan GTS a Race-Tex interior package that you may find similar to other GTS models, as well as GTS logos on the headrests.
As mentioned before, the GTS will be available for a Sport Turismo model. Porsche notes that while the Cross Turismo is meant for all-weather driving, the Sport Turismo features the same silhouette but is optimized for road driving. The new Taycan GTS Sport Turismo is a perfect choice for someone looking for plenty of cargo space, but are inclined to pick out a luxurious electric car– you can’t argue with Porsche performance, electric power, and 15.7 cubic feet of rear cargo space (42.8 cubic feet when the rear seats are folded forward).
The new Porsche Taycan GTS sedan will have a starting price of $131,400 while the Taycan GTS Sport Turismo will come in at $133,300. Expect deliveries in the U.S. to begin in the second quarter of 2022.
