The rear-drive Taycan with the standard 79.2 kWh Performance Battery is the lightest and purest configuration of Porsche's electric sedan, rated at 402 hp with launch control. With only the rear motor it turns in more eagerly than its all-wheel-drive siblings, and the 800-volt charging is identical. It is the entry point to the range and drives like Porsche meant it.
