Let’s talk about Porsche: The guide that will allow you to know its models. (Part 2)

In the last post, we talked about some models of the famous Porsche brand, including its latest advances in the field of electric cars.

However, those were not all the models to include, so we leave you 4 more models that may interest you:

The Taycan

Pronounced “tie-con,” is Porsche’s first production electric car. It debuted for the 2020 model year. It runs on Porsche’s high-performance J1 EV platform, which it shares with the Audi E-Tron GT. It comes as both a sedan or Sport/Cross Turismo wagon. The base “Taycan” is a single-motor RWD vehicle.

All other Taycans have front and rear motors and all-wheel-drive. New Taycan GTS models slot between the base models and high-performance Turbo models.

Dual-motor AWD

Base MSRP: $82,70

The Panamera

Is Porsche’s front-engined, four-door car. Consider it a cross between a sports car and a sports sedan. All Panameras come with an eight-speed PDK automatic transmission.

Porsche gave the lineup a substantial refresh for the 2021 model year. The base Panamera has a 325 hp V6 and either RWD or AWD. Buyers can upgrade to a 552-hp V6 Panamera 4S E-Hybrid, a 473-hp V8 Panamera GTS, a 620-hp V8 Panamera Turbo S and a 689-hp Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid.
