Some Porsche Taycan specifications revealed

As the Taycan will be Porsche’s first pure-electric model, its importance to the brand mustn’t be underestimated. This new four-door four-seater – which is due to be launched next year – is essentially a production version of the 2015 Mission E concept.

Several key technical details have already been released by Porsche to give an indication of the Taycan’s potential. Of course, development work continues, so they could easily change over the coming months.
