Overview
- Porsche announced Wednesday that the 2027 Taycan will make the 105 kWh Performance Battery Plus standard across the lineup to increase usable range and charging capability.
- The updated Taycan adds a native NACS DC fast‑charging inlet on the front passenger fender, keeps a J1772 AC inlet on the driver side, and ships with a CCS adapter to maximize charger access.
- E‑Shift is introduced as an option on most Taycan models and standard on the Turbo GT; it uses paddle shifters, eight simulated gears, noticeable shift jerks, gear‑specific drag torque and a virtual rev limiter to create ICE‑like feedback.
- Porsche upgraded the Porsche Communication Management system with faster hardware, AI voice assistance, a smarter charging planner, over‑the‑air updates and a quicker magnetic phone charger plus a battery health display.
- Pricing rises for MY2027 with orders open now, the Turbo GT can be fitted with a Manthey Kit for track‑focused aero and chassis upgrades, and some trims force E‑Shift into bundled paid options that raise the real add‑on cost for buyers.
