2023 Porsche Taycan Sedan Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

Porsche sells the Taycan as a sedan and as a wagon that Porsche calls the Cross Turismo. There's also the Sport Turismo, which is essentially a Cross Turismo but with a lower ride height. From there you'll have to pick from a trim lineup of Base, 4S, GTS, Turbo and Turbo S. For the sedan, the base Taycan and 4S are equipped with a 79-kWh battery pack and can be optioned with a 93-kWh Performance Battery Plus upgrade that comes on other models. The base model has a single electric motor giving the Taycan rear-wheel drive, while all other trims have a second motor that enables all-wheel drive. All Cross Turismo and Sport Turismo models feature dual electric motors, all-wheel drive and the 93-kWh battery. Read more to get our breakdown of the Taycan's power and standard and optional features.
