"When I went camping with some friends this past weekend, the conversation turned to cars, as it typically does. And when one asked me what my favorite electric vehicle was, I didn't hesitate: it's the Porsche Taycan. The Taycan gets everything right. Depending on the trim level, it's somewhere between "obscenely quick" and "so fast that maybe it shouldn't be sold to civilians." On top of that, it's a range, charging and technology monster."
"Like many automakers, Porsche once announced a bold plan to go 80% electric by 2030, which basically meant a pivot to EVs while continuing with the 911 until Europe would no longer legally allow them to do so. The plan hasn't turned out so well, explains today. The latest development is that a planned large three-row SUV will no longer be all-electric, while Porsche now sees more of a future for hybrids and gas cars as well."
Porsche's Taycan delivers exceptional acceleration, competitive range, fast charging and advanced technology, exemplifying high-performance electric vehicles. Porsche previously planned to be 80% electric by 2030 while retaining the 911 until regulatory limits. That strategy is changing: a planned large three-row SUV will not be all-electric and Porsche now anticipates a greater role for hybrids and gasoline cars. Contributing factors include a cooling of Taycan sales and luxury buyers preferring internal combustion ownership experiences. Broader market pressures and industry realities are prompting reassessments. Xiaomi issued a fix for a critical safety issue and the United States named a new chief vehicle regulator.
