Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo

Three years ago, Porsche introduced the first all-electric Taycan, the Mission E Cross Turismo. Today, Porsche is finishing production of a more practical version of the crossover, the Taycan Cross Turismo.

Porsche has released a video showing the pre-production test model driven by Stefan Weckbach, head of Porsche’s all-electric Taycan program.

Compared to its predecessor, the Cross Turismo has better suspension and a greater distance between the floor and the ground, which allows it to better master different surfaces. The new model has more luggage space compared to the previous model.

It is assumed that the car will have the same engine as the 4S model. Weckbach states that the new model offers more space in the rear seats, which indicates that the Cross Turismo has a larger wheelbase compared to its predecessor.

For more information, we will have to wait for the official presentation of the new Taycan , which should happen in the coming weeks.

New Porsche 911 GT3

On February 16, Porsche will present its new 992 Series car. It is a Porsche 911 GT3 model.

The new model will have a 4.0-liter straight-six engine with rear-wheel drive as well as the 911 Speedster model, which completed production of the 911 series. The engine will deliver 510 hp at 9,000 rpm. It will accelerate from 0-60 mph in less than 4 seconds. Customers can choose between a manual and an automatic seven-speed transmission (PDK). A six-speed manual transmission for the regular GT3 and GT3 Touring will also be available.

The car got a new braking system with 408 mm front discs and 20 and 21-inch wheels. A few carbon accessories, as well as a large rear spoiler, separate this car from the rest of the 992 Series.

Porsche engineers have focused most of their efforts on strict emissions regulations. The rest of the effort is focused on improving the GT3 model, which has been achieved by improving aerodynamics. The result is a 50 percent increase in downforce without affecting drag.
