New Taycan Turbo GT, the most powerful Porsche ever
Porsche developed the Taycan Turbo GTits most powerful car ever based on the Taycan Turbo S with the aim of maximizing performance. To reduce weight up to 75kg numerous elements have been introduced into carbon and Cfrpleather sports seats and Race-Tex (with option for 18-way adaptive seats), with the elimination of the electric opening of the tailgate.
Suspensions are also standard Porsche Active Ride with specific calibration, 21″ alloy wheels with lightened spokes, high-performance tires and the PCCB carbon-ceramic braking system which is further lighter by 2 kg compared to the Turbo S.

Engine, maximum performance
The Taycan Turbo GT is equipped with a new powertrain that includes a rear engine pulse inverter more powerful, with a maximum current of 900 Amperes, 300 more than the other models in the range. This allows you to obtain greater power and torque thanks to the use of silicon carbide as a semiconductor material, allowing higher switching frequencies.
The base power is therefore 580 kW (789 hp)which reaches i 760 kW (1,033 hp) with Launch Control in overboost mode, and even 815 kW (1,108 hp) for a maximum of 2 seconds.
This results in acceleration 0 to 100 km/h in 2.3 seconds on the Taycan Turbo GT and in 2.2 seconds on the version with Weissach package.
Furthermore, Porsche claims a sprint from 0 to 200 km/h in 6.6 seconds on the first and 6.4 seconds on the second, with maximum speeds of 290 and 305 km/h. The battery that powers the powertrain should have a capacity of 98 kWhwhich ensures a maximum declared autonomy of 555 km.
Price, how much does the most powerful Porsche ever cost
The price in Italy of the most powerful Porsche ever, the Taycan Turbo GT with Weissach package, is 249,188 euros22% VAT included.
