Three New 2025 Porsche Taycan Trims Include Return of Sport Turismo Wagon

Wagon fans, rejoice! The second-generation Porsche Taycan electric vehicle adds three trims to its lineup for the 2025 model year: an all-wheel-drive Taycan 4 sedan and two flavors of the performance-oriented GTS, a standard sedan and a Sport Turismo wagon.

It’s exciting to see not only a new lower entry price for an AWD Taycan, but the rare addition of a new wagon to the American market. The Taycan model range offers the only electric wagon on sale in the U.S. with the off-roady Cross Turismo. Not every buyer needed the extra ride height or liked the black plastic cladding of the Cross Turismo, however, so now those long-roof fans have the street-performance-tuned GTS Sport Turismo as an option.

Both variants get all the same upgrades as the other second-gen Taycans, including a more powerful rear electric motor, more powerful batteries, a new heat pump and an upgraded inverter, as well as optimizations to its software, thermal management system and energy recuperation systems. Porsche claims the new Taycans can recoup up to 400 kilowatts of energy under deceleration and handle charging speeds of up to 320 kW on an 800-volt DC fast charger.

An AWD Taycan for Less

Porsche’s trim expansion of the Taycan includes an important one for luxury EV shoppers with inclement weather: the Taycan 4, which serves as the new base AWD version. Previously, the Taycan 4 was only available as a trim on the Taycan Cross Turismo, but this new version brings the Taycan 4 trim into the lower-priced sedan.

The Taycan 4 sedan features one motor per axle, which gives it a 0.1-second faster 0-60 mph time than the base rear-wheel-drive Taycan, per Porsche: 4.4 seconds. The AWD system can decouple the front motor when conditions allow to maximize efficiency or fun, then re-engage it as needed for traction or deceleration within milliseconds. Peak power output changes with the battery size: The Taycan 4 comes with a maximum output of 402 hp and 398 pounds-feet of torque with its standard battery, or 429 hp and 405 pounds-feet of torque if you upgrade to the larger battery in Porsche’s Performance Battery Plus Package. Using launch control doesn’t change the horsepower but significantly ups the torque, to 431 pounds-feet with the standard battery and 449 pounds-feet with the Performance Battery Plus Package.

An adaptive air suspension, Porsche’s traction and active suspension management systems, LED matrix headlights, 19-inch wheels and black brake calipers all come standard on the Taycan 4. Inside, eight-way power front seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, brushed-aluminum door guards and a 10-speaker sound system are standard equipment. Buyers who stick to the standard trim package can choose a partial-leather interior in gray or a two-tone scheme in black and beige.

The Gran Turismo Sport Returns

The GTS variants (that’s short for Gran Turismo Sport) have historically filled a sweet spot in each Porsche model lineup, adding some key performance upgrades that don’t compromise the streetability of the car as much. Whether you choose the sedan or Sport Turismo wagon version, you’ll have a pretty fast car on your hands.

Keeping with the 2025 Taycan’s theme of “more power, baby” is a new maximum power output for the dual-motor AWD GTS using launch control: 690 hp (exactly 100 hp more than the last generation) and 582 pounds-feet of torque. According to Porsche, both the standard GTS and GTS Sport Turismo can go from 0-60 mph in 3.1 seconds and run through the quarter-mile in 11.1 seconds — 0.4 second and 0.7 second quicker, respectively, than the previous-gen GTS. It’s no slouch without using launch control, either, as the default output is still 596 hp and 534 pounds-feet of torque.

The Taycan GTS focuses on more than just straight-line speed, with trim-specific chassis tuning, adaptive air suspension and torque vectoring as standard. Rear-axle steering and an extra Porsche Active Ride suspension control system (which optimizes the distribution of forces per wheel based on driving conditions) are available.

The Sport Chrono Package is included as part of the GTS’ standard kit, which adds a host of performance extras like special tuning for the suspension, a track driving mode, performance displays and the reason why it’s called “Sport Chrono:” a little stopwatch mounted in the center of the dashboard. For the new Taycan GTS, this package also includes a push-to-pass button on the steering wheel that gives you 93 extra horsepower for 10 seconds and increases the torque to the car’s launch-control output level when the button is pressed at lower speeds. This feature also has a countdown display in the instrument cluster to let you know when you’ll run out of extra power.

Inside the car, the new Taycan GTS features the same Electric Sport Sound simulated drivetrain noises as the faster Taycan Turbo S. It sounds cheesy, but in previous Taycans I’ve tested, it did a decent job of conveying motor speed and shifts without being too obtrusive. A black leather and synthetic suede interior is standard, with Carmine Red and Slate Grey Neo options available. The Taycan GTS also features a Bose sound system, a heated sport steering wheel shared with the Taycan Turbo GT, 18-way power-adjustable seats and model-specific display graphics.

On the outside, gloss-black mirrors along with black and dark gray accents help set the GTS apart. The GTS also features Porsche’s Sport design front and rear bumpers and 20-inch Aero Design wheels shared with the Taycan Turbo S as standard, with 21-inch Anthracite Grey wheels available.
