The GTS was already the pick of the Taycan range - the latest version doesn't fall far from the tree
The GTS was already the pick of the Taycan range - the latest version doesn't fall far from the treeWhile there’s the occasional exception - see a newly - we all know what to expect when it comes to GTS-badged Porsches. A smidge more power, an ever so slightly sportier look, some nice options - just enough, in other words, to neatly justify its premium over a lesser model. Which is why there are so many of them.
To make this really fast Taycan seem faster still, the GTS gets a push-to-pass boost that raises torque to Launch Control levels when on the move. It lasts for 10 seconds, with a countdown timer and animated display in the dash like That’s not the only influence the GTS takes from the Nurburgring record breaker either, with plenty of Race-Tex throughout the cabin and the GT multifunction wheel.
And if exhilarating is perhaps a stretch for a large executive fastback and estate, there are a host of changes to the GTS that ought to make it very nice indeed to drive. That chassis tune is GTS-specific for a ‘particularly sporty edge’, aided by standard Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus and PASM. Options, of course, can make the GTS even more so, with a version of the spookily sorted Porsche Active Ride bespoke to this Taycan available alongside rear-wheel steer.
Kevin Giek, Porsche’s VP of the Taycan model line, said: “With the extremely wide-ranging Taycan line-up, we meet a wide range of customer wishes and mobility needs. Our latest innovations exemplify this exceptional breadth. Even the first generation of the Taycan GTS was already the sporting standard-bearer of the model line, positioned between the Taycan 4S and Taycan Turbo. And the new edition is no exception.
Both derivatives are on sale now for deliveries early in the new year, priced from £117,500 for the standard car of £118,300 for the Sport Turismo. Back when we drove , an estate was from £104,190, so that’s a fair old uptick - but it would also be fair to say that this represents one of the more far reaching GTS overhauls. Porsche is unequivocal about the fact: ‘The electric sports car surpasses its predecessor in almost every discipline.
