The new Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo features all the strengths of the Taycan such as superior performance and long range. In addition, there is more headroom for rear-seat passengers and a maximum luggage compartment capacity of over 1,200 litres loaded via the large tailgate. The chassis, with standard all-wheel drive and air suspension, is height-adjustable. The Taycan Cross Turismo will be launched on the market in the summer of 2021. It is anticipated that the five largest markets for this version of the Taycan will be the US, the UK, Norway, the Netherlands and Germany.
Purist exterior design with Porsche DNA
The visual appearance of the Taycan Cross Turismo is closely based on the Mission E Cross Turismo concept study presented at the Geneva International Motor Show in 2018. In particular, its silhouette is defined by the sporty roof line sloping towards the rear - called the flyline by Porsche designers. The off-road design elements include wheelarch trims, unique lower aprons at the front and rear as well as the side sills. In combination with the Off-Road Design package, the Cross Turismo has special flaps at the corners of the front and rear bumpers and at the ends of the sills. These make for a striking exterior and provide protection from stone impacts. Like the Taycan sports saloon, the new Cross Turismo also features innovative elements such as the glass-effect Porsche lettering in the light bar.Unique interior design with a wide display band.
Large battery with up to 800 volts as standard
The Taycan Cross Turismo operates with a system voltage of 800 volts (voltage range 610 V to 835 V) instead of the 400 V that is usual for electric cars. The standard two-deck Performance Battery Plus contains 33 cell modules consisting of 12 individual cells each (396 in total). Total capacity is 93.4 kWh.
Intelligent charging management at home and on the road
Taycan Cross Turismo drivers can charge their vehicles at home with up to 11 kW of alternating current (AC) as standard. An on-board charger with a capacity of 22 kW is available as optional equipment. When on the road, Taycan Cross Turismo drivers benefit from a sophisticated temperature management strategy for the battery. Precisely controlled heating of the cells when the car is approaching a high-power charging station allows the batteries to be charged with higher currents (direct current, DC), speeding up the process significantly. The battery can be recharged to provide a range of up to 100 kilometres (according to WLTP) in approximately five minutes. The Plug & Charge function enables convenient charging and payments without the need for cards or an app: as soon as the charging cable is plugged in, the Taycan Cross Turismo establishes encrypted communication with the Plug & Charge-compatible charging station. The charging and payment processes then start automatically.
Extensive passive safety systems
Depending on the seating configuration, four or five three-point seat belts with force limiters are fitted as standard. The Porsche Side Impact Protection System consists of side impact protection elements in the doors and thorax airbags that are integrated in the side bolsters of the front seats. The side protection system is rounded off by curtain airbags covering the entire roof frame and side windows from the A- to the C-pillar. Full-size airbags and one knee airbag each for the driver and front passenger are fitted at the front.
