Porsche Taycan 4S - 800V Sports Sedan Performance Calculator

The Taycan 4S achieves 507 km WLTP from its upgraded 89 kWh battery (83.7 kWh usable 2024+). Our calculator uses Car and Driver testing showing 225 miles (362 km) at 75 mph - sports car priorities showing. The dual-motor AWD delivers 390 kW (530 PS) with overboost enabling 4.0s 0-100 km/h. At 2,220 kg with two-speed transmission and 800V architecture, it prioritizes driving dynamics over maximum efficiency achieving Porsche's first volume EV with typical brand character.

89 kWh battery (83.7 kWh usable 2024) upgraded from 79.2 kWh - adds 81 km WLTP range
Dual motor AWD 390 kW (530 PS) with Launch Control overboost - 4.0s 0-100 permanent all-season
270 kW DC charging peak on 800V - revolutionary 22.5 minutes 5-80% at 350 kW Electrify America
Two-speed transmission unique to Taycan - first gear acceleration, second gear efficiency above 90 km/h
4,963 mm sports sedan with active aero and adaptive spoiler - 0.22 Cd excellent for performance
Porsche Communication Management 16.9-inch curved display and Sport Chrono package standard

Taycan 4S Winter Performance - German Sports Car Engineering

TÜV winter tested Taycan at -10°C achieving 340 km (67% WLTP) - sports tires and performance priority hurt cold efficiency. Heat pump standard uses R-1234yf. With 150,000+ Taycans sold globally, German/Norwegian owners report AWD provides confidence but summer tires MUST swap winters. 800V fast charging compensates range loss enabling winter road trips despite consumption.

Porsche internal testing shows 33% range loss at -7°C highway - performance tires and sporty priorities hurt. City winter achieves 375 km (74% WLTP) adequate for sports sedan role. Below -15°C, range drops to 60% WLTP but 800V fast charging enables frequent stops. Absolute winter range 305+ km acceptable for enthusiast use.

Winter Tips:

  • ❄️ Range Mode limits to 310 kW and raises two-speed shift point - adds 35-40 km winter range
  • ❄️ Porsche Connect app preconditioning draws 7.2 kW for sports bucket seats - takes 15 minutes
  • ❄️ Heated/ventilated 18-way sports seats (125W) plus heated wheel and heated surfaces standard
  • ❄️ AWD with Porsche Traction Management provides exceptional snow traction - torque vectoring precise
  • ❄️ Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3 245/45R19 front / 285/40R19 rear staggered MANDATORY winters
  • ❄️ 800V preconditioning heats battery to 35°C in 8 minutes - fastest in industry enabling winter fast charging

Winter Features:

  • Dual motor AWD with Porsche Traction Management - up to 100% rear or 70% front dynamically
  • Heat pump standard but sports car priorities - less efficient than family EV designs
  • Battery liquid thermal with 800V architecture heats rapidly - 8 minutes versus Tesla's 25 minutes
  • Adaptive air suspension with PASM dampers - adjustable ride height for winter clearance
  • Two-speed transmission maintains efficiency cold - first gear warms drivetrain rapidly

Taycan 4S Real-World Range - Sports Performance Priority

Car and Driver 75 mph test achieved 225 miles (362 km) - 71% of EPA 252 miles showing sports car consumption. Edmunds recorded 2.7 mi/kWh (21.9 kWh/100km) versus competitors' sub-20 kWh/100km. Owner data from 28,000+ Taycan Forum shows median 395 km at 20°C. Highway 140 km/h yields 310 km - sports dynamics prioritized over efficiency.

What Car? UK testing achieved 221 miles (356 km) - 70% of WLTP 507 km typical for performance EV. InsideEVs 70 mph recorded 22.3 kWh/100km versus Model S's 20.1 kWh/100km - the two-speed transmission and performance tires cost efficiency. However, 800V enables 270 kW charging adding 100 km in 5 minutes compensating lower efficiency with fastest charging.

Taycan prioritizes Porsche driving dynamics: 2,220 kg weight competitive for sports sedan but performance focus shows, two-speed transmission adds mass but improves acceleration and high-speed efficiency above 120 km/h, AWD with Porsche Traction Management adds parasitic losses but provides sports car handling, and summer performance tires standard prioritize grip over rolling resistance. 800V fast charging strategy over maximum range.

Achieving 480+ km Real Range in Taycan 4S

  • Range Mode with Auto regen provides adaptive one-pedal - recovers up to 290 kW combined motors
  • Porsche InnoDrive with predictive cruise using 3D maps - optimizes two-speed transmission shifts
  • Maintain 36 PSI (2.5 bar) on 19-inch - Taycan allows 38 PSI highway extending range 25 km
  • 19-inch Taycan Aero wheels versus 20/21-inch Performance - reduce drag 6% adding 35 km range
  • Eco Assist with coasting function uses traffic data - disengages motors highway coasting optimally
  • Sport Chrono clock disable in PCM - removes 5W parasitic draw adding 8 km very long trips

Taycan 4S 800V Charging - Industry-Leading Speed

  • DC charging peaks 270 kW from 5-30% SoC maintaining 225+ kW to 60% - fastest production EV
  • 5-80% takes 22.5 minutes at Electrify America 350 kW - beats Tesla by 5 minutes despite similar battery
  • Home charging at 11 kW (Porsche Mobile Charger) fills 10-90% in 8.5 hours on 48A circuit
  • Charge to 85% daily recommended - Panasonic cells handle higher SoC than competitors with longevity
  • Porsche Charging Service integrates 400+ networks - but 800V limits to Electrify America/Ionity peak
  • Battery preconditioning automatic via navigation - heats to 35°C in 8 minutes fastest industry
