Porsche Taycan 4S Plus

Pricing

The Porsche Taycan 4S Plus has an On The Road Price (OTR) of £100,196. The OTR Price includes VAT, first year of VED, vehicle first registration fee, number plates and delivery.

Drivetrain and Performance

The Porsche Taycan 4S Plus is a full electric vehicle (BEV). The maximum power of the Porsche Taycan 4S Plus is 440 kW (590 hp). The maximum torque is 524 lb-ft. The Porsche Taycan 4S Plus is all wheel drive and can accelerate from 0 to 62 miles per hour in 3.7 seconds. The top speed is 155 mph.

Battery and Charging

The battery of the Porsche Taycan 4S Plus has a total capacity of 105 kWh. The usable capacity is 97 kWh. An estimated range of about 340 miles is achievable on a fully charged battery. The actual range will however depend on several factors including climate, terrain, use of climate control systems and driving style.

For example: sustaining high speeds in cold weather could result in a range of around 250 mi. However, driving at low speeds in mild weather will increase the range to around 480 mi.

Charging is done using a Type 2 connector and the on-board charger has a maximum power of 11 kW. This charges a fully depleted battery back to full in around 10 hours 30 minutes. However, a 3-phase grid connection is needed to achieve this. The majority of homes and charge points currently do not have this connection. In most cases the maximum charging power will be 7.4 kW, allowing for a charge time of 15 hours 30 minutes and a charge rate of 22 mph. An optional on-board charger with a maximum power of 22.0 kW is available. This charges a fully depleted battery back to full in around 5 hours 15 minutes. Charging the car using a regular wall plug will take around 49 hours 45 minutes.

Rapid charging is possible through a CCS connection. The maximum rapid charge power is 320 kW. The battery can't be charged continuously at this power. In an average rapid charge session the average charge power will be around 230 kW. This charges the battery from 10% to 80% in around 20 minutes. A rapid charge like this will add about 235 miles of range.

Energy Consumption

The estimated combined (motorway and city) energy consumption of the Porsche Taycan 4S Plus is about 285 Wh per mile. By comparison, this energy consumption is the equivalent of a fuel consumption of 142 mpg in a traditional petrol car.

The actual energy consumption will depend on several factors including climate, terrain, use of climate control systems and driving style. For example: sustaining high speeds in cold weather could result in an energy use of around 388 Wh per mile. However, driving at low speeds in mild weather will increase the efficiency to about 202 Wh per mile.

CO2 Emission

The Porsche Taycan 4S Plus emits no CO2 during driving. This only includes direct emissions from the vehicle itself. The energy needed to charge the battery might have been (partly) generated by the use of fossil fuels. Vehicles with an internal combustion engine will always emit CO2 during driving. Additionally, CO2 is emitted during the production and transport of fossil fuels.
