2020 Porsche Taycan 4S 93Kwh 2dr coupe; Porsche electric sports car en-route to Capesthorne Hall classic May car show, Cheshire, UK
Porsche’s Taycan Turbo S was something of a game changer when it arrived but, at nearly £140,000, that blistering performance and ability didn’t come cheap. Now we’ve tried the more affordable (that’s a relative term) £83,580 Taycan 4S in the UK, to see whether this entry-level EV is the one to go for. We’ll cut straight to the chase; it most certainly is, and for many reasons. Firstly, as we’ve already said, it’s so much more affordable than any other version in the line-up – but this doesn’t come at the expense of how the model drives. Best electric cars Best electric cars to buy 2021 The beauty of an electric car is that it delivers its performance in a big hit thanks to instant torque. While the 4S is less potent than its bigger brothers, it still produces 563bhp and 650Nm of torque (when fitted with our test car’s £4,613 Performance Battery Plus, which delivers more power, torque and range). This means despite its chunky 2,220kg kerbweight, with four-wheel drive, it’ll still leap from 0-62mph in four seconds flat thanks to launch control.
