Taycan GTS & GTS Sport Turismo
Taycan GTS in Carmine Red or Taycan GTS Sport Turismo in Slat Grey Neo is your sporty all-rounder with up to 690 hp of overboost power using Launch Control, 100 hp than the previous model. At a touch of a button, one can use the new push-to-pass function that gives a 10 second boost of 93 hp at a touch of a button. This years model also is able to benefit from the push-to-pass due to the torque being raised to Launch Control levels when pressed. These Taycan models are .4 seconds faster than previous models with a 0 to 60 mph time of 3.1 seconds and a quarter mile run of 11.1 seconds, .7 seconds faster than last years model.
As equally distinctive on the exterior, the interior has adopted from the Taycan Turbo GT model many of the same materials. From the Race-Tex and Smooth black leather to 18-way adjustable seats, multifunction steering wheel functions, heated steering wheel to the Bose Surround system. These models come in the Carmine Red interior or optional Slate Grey Neo interior.
The Taycan GTS and GTS Sport Turismo comes with Porsche Active Suspension Management combined with Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus standard. Porsche Active Ride Suspension control system with GTS-specific tuning is optional.
