Porsche Taycan PRODUCTION

The new Porsche Taycan Turbo S can generate up to 560 kW (761 horsepower) overboost power in combination with Launch Control, and the Taycan Turbo up to 500 kW (680 HP). The Taycan Turbo S accelerates from 0 to 100 kmh (62mph) in 2.8 seconds, while the Taycan Turbo completes this sprint in 3.2 seconds. The Turbo S has a range of up to 412 kilometres, and the Turbo a range of up to 450 kilometres. The top speed of both all-wheel-drive models is 260 kmh (161mph).

The introduction of the Taycan is generating 1,200 new jobs in Zuffenhausen plant. “The Taycan is one of biggest creators of jobs in the history of Porsche,” emphasises Andreas Haffner, Member of the Executive Board responsible for HR and Social Affairs. Not all of these new employees will be producing the Taycan; they will also build two-door sports cars. Porsche’s aim for the Taycan is to create a team with a healthy mix of experienced sports car manufacturers and new staff. This development will also see a large-scale training initiative take place in a specially created production hall built on the training centre premises in Zuffenhausen. A digital learning platform, which contains over 1,400 training units on issues related to digital transformation and allows users to study independently and according to their needs, will also be available for the entire workforce as they join Porsche on its journey into the electric and digital era.

Thanks for watching
