Porsche unveils Taycan 4S with more competitive pricing.

Porsche and VAG aim to take more of Tesla’s market share with their new electric Taycan.

Porsche has unveiled their newest version of the Taycan EV super cruiser. This one will bear the 4s badge, and have a price point that’s about $50,000 less than the current cheapest (the Turbo trim).

Amazingly this appears to have not required a sacrifice to performance, so you can expect more of these Tesla killers on the roads in 2020.

They also took a moment to plug the charging capabilities of this upcoming beast, a quote from the press release reads “When plugged into an 800-volt high-speed DC charging station, the maximum charging capacity (peak) is 225 kW for the Performance Battery or 270 kW for the Performance Battery Plus. With either battery, and under ideal circumstances, charging from 5% to 80% state of charge can occur in as little as 22.5 minutes.” This is significantly faster than a Tesla’s charging, so we’re very excited to see how they respond.
