From the iconic 911 sports car to a new line of electric-powered vehicles, Porsche is always in motion. It is a brand that can create a frisson of excitement simply by being present; when one of these cars pulls up to an intersection or into a parking lot, everyone is instantly aware. The Porsche Taycan 4S is built with that same sense of fire, one that combines incredible speed with gorgeous good looks.
Basics About the Porsche Taycan 4S
The Taycan 4S achieves what other cars have found to be difficult, if not downright impossible: turning to battery-electric power in a remarkably straightforward way. Not only that, but the 4S also offers convincing appeal with its sultry lines, striking portions, and instantly recognizable design. In other words, this four-door sedan takes the practicality of electric power and uses it to juice a machine that is truly satisfying to drive. The AWD Taycan 4S hit the U.S. market in 2020. It’s received a few tweaks for 2021 to ensure it still drives like a Porsche sports car; this means it sends a rush of adrenaline through the veins in a way few electric models can do.
Exciting Features
The Taycan is available in eight different trims, one of which is the 4S. This car delivers a 522-hp powertrain, adaptive air suspension, and 19-inch wheels. The interior is outfitted with partial leather, and keyless entry makes for convenient access. This car is also unbelievably fast, moving from zero to 60 mph in 3.8 seconds with Launch Control. The driving range reaches 227 miles, but you can extend this up to 272 miles with Performance Battery Plus. Standard features on the 4S include:
• Two-zone advanced climate control
• Thermally insulated glass
• Particle/pollen filter
• Heated seats
• Multifunction sport steering wheel in leather
• 16.8-inch curved driver display that includes touchscreen control panels
New Changes and Upgrades
Although the Taycan is only two years old, Porsche has already given it a fresh appearance with smaller, more elegant headlights and a beefier front grille. A new battery choice is also available, in addition to a more affordable rear-wheel-drive base model. Specific to the 4S, the standard battery is now a 71-kWh pack – slightly smaller than the original 83.7-kWh choice. The latter is still available, but the former costs a little less.
Porsche has also modified the car’s charging system to reduce power loss and extend battery life. Other noteworthy updates include new interior and exterior color options, SiriusXM satellite radio, and a heads-up display.
Rich with Safety
Every Taycan, including the 4S, comes standard with driver-assist technology that makes these cars as safe as possible. Lane-keeping assist, lane-departure warning, automated emergency braking, and forward-collision warning take over where the human eye falls short. Drivers can upgrade to additional safety features for a little more money, including:
• Adaptive cruise control
• Blind-spot monitoring
• Night vision
A Porsche doesn’t drive like any other car on the market. Decades of perfection have created a line-up that defies words. The only way to truly appreciate a Porsche, and the exciting Taycan 4S, is by seeing it. Even better is the chance to get behind the wheel and feel its incredible power for yourself.
