LA Auto Show 2021: Porsche Taycan GTS unveiled in two body types

The addition of the Taycan Sport Turismo means that the model family now includes three body variants.

At the LA Auto Show, Porsche will unveil a new version of its electric sports car. The third body version of the first all-electric Porsche model series will also make its debut at the LA Auto Show as the Taycan GTS Sport Turismo. The newcomer shares its sporty silhouette and sloping roof at the rear with the Taycan Cross Turismo.

The Taycan GTS is the sporty all-rounder of the model range. It has an impressive 590 bhp. Zero to 100 kmph can be achieved in 3.7 seconds in both the body variants. Both have a maximum speed of 250 kmph. As a representative of the latest Taycan generation, the GTS has a particularly efficient drive strategy. Other Taycan derivatives also received this update in the new model year. In practical terms, this extends the operating range. With a range of up to 504 km based on WLTP figures, the new sports model is the first Taycan to break the 500 km mark.

Adaptive air suspension, including Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), is optimized specifically for the GTS to benefit from lateral mobility. The set-up of optional rear-axle steering is also sportier. The rich sound pattern of the revised Porsche Electric Sport Sound underscores the character of the new GTS model.

Exterior and interior are distinctive. There are many black or dark colored details on the exterior, such as the front apron, base of exterior mirrors and side window trims – as is traditional on the GTS. Several black Res-Tex features in the interior underline the elegant, dynamic ambiance, as does the standard brushed aluminum interior package with a black anodized finish.

The addition of the Taycan Sport Turismo means that the model family now includes three body variants. The new derivative is aimed at those who want the same level of everyday practicality offered by the Taycan Cross Turismo, but who don’t want to miss out on the on-road performance of the Taycan sports saloon. The Taycan Sport Turismo shares the sporty silhouette, sloping roof and functional design of the Taycan Cross Turismo. Headroom at the rear is 45 millimeters more than that of the Taycan sports saloon, and the load capacity under the large tailgate is over 1,200 litres. However, the Taycan Sport Turismo lacks off-road design elements.
