The entry-level Taycan returns with rear-wheel drive and a single-motor setup, but now benefits from increased range and efficiency thanks to revised thermal management and updated software. It’s more responsive off the line than before, with improved acceleration and a lower curb weight that keeps the drive pure and balanced.
New for 2025, the Taycan 4 adds all-wheel drive to the base car’s minimalist, driver-focused experience. It fills the gap between the base model and the 4S, offering more grip and performance without stepping into full-blown sports sedan territory. It’s ideal for all-weather confidence with a subtler footprint.
The sweet spot in the lineup, the updated 4S now delivers even more punch with improved 0–60 mph times and a longer range. Its dual-motor setup, sharpened chassis tuning, and enhanced regen braking make it feel livelier and more engaging than ever before. It’s a true daily-driver sports EV.+
The GTS remains the enthusiast’s choice, now sharper and faster than before. Revised suspension tuning and recalibrated throttle response make it a performance standout, with a distinct character that’s more focused than the 4S but less extreme than the Turbo models. It’s also the best-sounding Taycan thanks to its unique synthetic soundtrack.
The 2025 Taycan Turbo gets a big performance bump, with quicker acceleration and a new overboost function that launches it into supercar territory. Despite the name, there’s no actual turbocharger — just raw electric muscle and unmistakable Turbo badging. It blends luxury and serious pace.
Still the range-topping beast (until the GTs arrived), the updated Turbo S gets even quicker, with a 0–60 mph sprint in just over 2 seconds. Porsche has refined its launch control and increased peak output, making it ferocious yet composed, with immense traction and top-tier cabin refinement.
New for 2025, the Turbo GT is the most extreme Taycan yet — track-bred and record-setting. With over 1,000 hp in launch mode and revised aero, it’s faster than many supercars. Active suspension, ceramic brakes, and specific chassis tuning make it razor-sharp on both road and circuit.
This is the ultimate no-compromise Taycan. It deletes the rear seats, adds more carbon fiber, shaves off weight, and turns the Turbo GT into a Nürburgring assassin. It’s the Taycan distilled into pure performance form, with a 0–60 time under 2 seconds and a top speed of 190+ mph. No frills, all focus.
The wagon-bodied GTS returns, combining style, space, and speed in equal measure. The Sport Turismo layout is practical without being lifted like the Cross Turismo, and the GTS enhancements make it every bit as thrilling as its sedan counterpart, just with a more versatile rear hatch.
The 4 Cross Turismo is a rugged, all-wheel-drive wagon with mild off-road capability and increased ride height. It’s now more efficient and better equipped, making it a great all-weather alternative for those wanting something more adventurous but still distinctly Porsche.
Balancing performance and utility, the 4S Cross Turismo gets all the 2025 tech upgrades while offering more power and sharper dynamics than the 4. It’s arguably the best all-arounder in the lineup, with room for gear, optional roof rails, and a driving experience that belies its wagon silhouette.
With Turbo-level performance in a wagon shell, this model blends serious straight-line speed with grand-touring capability. You get the added cargo flexibility and the same brutal dual-motor powertrain as the sedan, now with a touch more practicality baked in.
The fastest wagon Porsche has ever built, the Turbo S Cross Turismo hauls — both in terms of acceleration and cargo. It rockets to 60 mph in just over 2 seconds while still offering rear-seat comfort and generous luggage space. For those who want it all, this is it.
Current Porsche Cayenne GTS Coupe – Ultimate Guide The 2024 Porsche Cayenne GTS Coupé brings the same performance-focused upgrades as the GTS SUV but packages them in a sleeker, more expressive silhouette.
