The 2025 Porsche Taycan GTS is here, boasting a major power boost and a sleek facelift, which keeps this electric vehicle at the forefront of the luxury EV market. With an impressive 690 horsepower on overboost, a significantly faster acceleration time, and refined design touches, the new Taycan GTS is primed to meet the demands of EV enthusiasts. Alongside the GTS, Porsche has introduced a Taycan 4 sedan, broadening the options for those seeking Porsche’s advanced all-wheel-drive technology.
Power Boost: The Heart of the 2025 Porsche Taycan GTS
Porsche’s latest 2025 Taycan GTS model has raised the bar in performance, making it more powerful than ever. The GTS model now produces a remarkable 690 horsepower when the overboost feature is activated, a substantial increase of 100 horsepower compared to previous models. This extra power is achievable through the Sport Chrono package, which includes a “push-to-pass” function that delivers a thrilling power boost for 10 seconds. This burst of power shaves 0.4 seconds off the car’s 0-60 mph time, allowing the sedan to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.1 seconds. For added flair, the Taycan GTS also incorporates the Electric Sport Sound profile, borrowed from the Turbo S, adding an exhilarating audio experience to match its performance.
Enhanced Performance Across the Taycan Lineup
In addition to the GTS, Porsche has introduced the 2025 Taycan 4, now available as a sedan alongside the Cross Turismo. This Taycan 4 model is the most affordable all-wheel-drive version in the lineup, delivering 402 horsepower with the standard battery or 429 horsepower with an upgraded pack. When equipped with launch control, the Taycan 4 can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.4 seconds. An impressive feature of the Taycan 4 is its ability to switch between rear-wheel-drive (RWD) and all-wheel-drive (AWD) modes. By decoupling the front motor, the Taycan 4 can operate in RWD mode, optimizing efficiency without sacrificing performance when AWD is needed.
Striking Design Updates and New Color Choices
Porsche has also given the 2025 Taycan a subtle facelift to enhance its already sleek aesthetic. New colors have been added, including Slate Grey Neo, Pale Blue, and Purple Sky, expanding the personalization options for buyers. These refreshed design elements align with Porsche’s dedication to blending luxury with performance.
Inside, the 2025 Taycan continues to offer advanced technology and comfort, with premium materials and sophisticated touches in the GTS and Taycan 4 models. The adaptive air suspension is standard even on the Taycan 4, ensuring smooth and responsive handling, while matrix LED headlights enhance visibility, and a 10-speaker sound system provides premium audio quality.
Pricing and Availability of the 2025 Porsche Taycan Models
For those interested in the new Taycan lineup, the 2025 Porsche Taycan GTS comes at a price of $149,895 for the sedan model, and the Sport Turismo wagon starts at $151,795. The Taycan 4 sedan, now more accessible with its lower price point, is set at $105,295. U.S. dealers are expected to receive the first shipments by March 2025, but interested buyers can already place their orders.
Taycan Sales and Market Positioning
While Porsche has enhanced the Taycan’s appeal through power upgrades and design refinement, global sales have seen a decline in 2024, particularly in the Chinese market. Sales of the Taycan dropped by 50% in the first nine months of the year, which Porsche attributes to the transition toward the facelifted model. This new release is anticipated to reignite interest and recapture the market’s attention.
The 2025 Taycan lineup offers Porsche fans and EV enthusiasts a blend of power, luxury, and innovative engineering. With options ranging from the dynamic GTS model to the more affordable Taycan 4, Porsche is pushing the limits of what luxury EVs can offer, keeping the Taycan at the cutting edge of performance and design in the electric vehicle industry.
