Crossing over boundaries, the Taycan Cross Tourismo

For the 2021 model year, Porsche introduced a new electric station wagon. The new Taycan Cross Tourismo—unlike the regular Taycan—is only available with the all-wheel-drive variants and the larger battery pack. With electric power being the sole source of locomotion, the Taycan Cross Tourismo will be available from a 523 horsepower 4S trim to an enthusiast-pleasing 750 horsepower Turbo S. The Turbo S rockets from 0-100 km/h in under 2.5 seconds, a testament to how fast of a station wagon this Cross Tourismo will prove to be. It is with great pleasure we can safely say, wagons are cool again.

The car boasts a two-speed transmission in the rear axle, a first for any EV. The Cross Tourismo will largely remain unchanged from the standard sedan, but there will be an additional off-road package available for the long roof counterpart. The standard, if you can call it that, Taycan possesses the trait of blistering fast acceleration and sports car-like performance which will be inherited by the Taycan Cross Tourismo as well. You can go Kayaking, take your kids to school, go skiing and camping all the while keeping up with a Bugatti Veyron.

The Taycan Cross Tourismo is set to go on sale later this year, providing buyers with all the things they love about the sedan with the added benefits of a station wagon. To say we are excited is an understatement.
