A Porsche Taycan Took The EV Cannonball Record Across The Country In Just 44 hours and 26 minutes
The Cannonball Run isn't quite what it used to be. There are so many more people on the roads these days than there were back in the Car & Driver underground hot rodder times that it just isn't safe. And some people have gotten the number so low that to beat it you need to average over 90 miles per hour, which just isn't tenable. Someone is …

Porsche's first all-electric car has proven to be a sales success already. The German marque can't even build these things as fast as it can sell them. The six-figure Tesla-beater is selling in numbers bigger than any other sports car Porsche currently builds, losing out to only the SUV models in the company's lineup. Despite the challenges of …

Thus far the Porsche Taycan has only been available in all-wheel drive configurations. Well, in the U.S. and Europe, that is. In China the company sells a rear-wheel drive configuration Taycan (which, by the way, I would really like to buy). That rear-drive model recently set a new world record for longest continuous drift, and let me tell you, it …

Thanks to Elektrek for the find. If a mild sacrifice in performance doesn't dissuade you from Taycan ownership, the latest model sibling may tempt you. The Taycan base model, though lacking a driven front axle and the warp-drive function of the Taycan Turbo S, does offer significant savings and better fuel economy. Just announced yesterday by …

Okay, has it been long enough that we can stop worrying about Porsche calling the Taycan a "turbo" even though electric cars obviously don't have turbochargers yet? It's obvious that Porsche is using the word as a marketing buzzword to let people know that these are the fast ones. While I'm not going to say that it's okay, I think I'm done arguing …

We truly loved the Taycan Turbo S when we got an opportunity to test it last year. And it feels like the future of not only Porsche, but sports cars in general. Even if …
