New Porsche Taycan Breaks Cover In Singapore

Porsche has launched the updated Taycan in Singapore - featuring more power, longer range, quicker charging and a sharper design. A special one-off Taycan Turbo S Celestial Jade made its World Premiere at the event, showcasing the collaboration between Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur and Porsche Asia Pacific. This unique model highlights the extensive customisation possibilities of the Taycan and pays tribute to Southeast Asia's vibrant culture.

No less than 7 Taycan variants offered

Porsche unveiled seven variants of the new Taycan, including the Cross Turismo. Along with the sedan, experts at Style Porsche have further honed the clean, purist design of the Taycan with new front and rear-end styling and new headlights and taillights.

2.4 seconds 0-100km/h for Taycan Turbo S!

The new Taycan’s rear electric motor delivers 80kW more power while being 10.4kg lighter. The base Taycan now sprints from 0-100 km/h in 4.8 seconds, 0.6 seconds quicker than before, while the Taycan Turbo S achieves this in just 2.4 seconds, 0.4 seconds faster than its predecessor. Selected models offer a "Push-to-Pass" function in the Sport Chrono package, providing a 70kW boost for 10 seconds.

Up to 678km of range

Performance Battery Plus variants feature a larger 105kWh battery, up from 93kWh, and have increased recuperation capacity of up to 400kW.

It can now be charged at up to 320kW.
