2022 Porsche Taycan

There has been speculation for a long time about the new version of the Porsche Taycan. This is confirmed by information from Porsche, which says that this company intends to present a novelty at the Munich Motor Show, 2022 Porsche Taycan.

Although the current model is achieving good sales results, Porsche has decided to make some improvements. This primarily refers to the Turbo Charging Planner, which heats the battery to a higher temperature, which enables faster charging, temperature control and charging functions. To help with parking, the new Taycan and Cross Turismo models are equipped with the Remote Park Assist option, which allows you to find a suitable parking space. With the Porsche Connect application, the car performs autonomous parking.

Porsche offers 65 additional body colors, such as Moonlight metallic blue, Acid green, Rubystar, Riviera blue and metallic purple. Some of them are very popular for the 911 model (964 generation).

Inside, the interior is simple and has already been seen in previous models such as seats upholstered in the finest materials, heated steering wheel, curved 16.8-inch display for the gauges, etc.

The new Porsche Taycan will hit the market in September with a starting price of around $ 81,250. We will have more information after the Munich Motor Show.

After the modification, the 356 Speedster is equipped with chrome bumpers, shaved rocker moldings and taillights, 15 “front and 16” rear wheels painted in gold, factory exhaust pipes.

Inside, the seats are upholstered in a combination of red leather and fabric. A traditional two-spoke steering wheel and new floor coverings have been installed. The complete restoration was overseen by Galpin President and Chief Operating Officer, Beau Boeckmann.

Porsche Taycan with the new TechArt body kit

German tuner TechArt has introduced a new body kit for the EV Porsche Taycan. It contains carbon fiber components in glossy black or a color of your choice.

The car uses the same powertrain as the base Taycan. For example, the Taycan 4S is powered by two electric motors with a total power of 435 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque. The engines are centrally mounted on the front and rear axles. It reaches 62 mph in 4 seconds with a top speed of 155 mph (250 km / h). The 93.4 kWh Lithium-ion battery produces enough juice to cover a range of 233 miles (375 km).

At the front of the vehicle are air curtains, a front splitter and a central intake, all made of carbon fiber. At the rear, there is a multi-part carbon fiber diffuser frame and a sports spoiler that shows that it is not a basic Porsche Taycan.

The interior is done in a sporty spirit. The seats are upholstered in perforated black leather and jet-black Alcantara. Contrasting green elements and embroidered TECHART logotype can be found on the seats, dashboard and door trims.

The car uses forged aluminum Formula VI 10.0 x 22-inch (front) and 11.5 x 22-inch (rear) wheels.
