"There are no official EPA driving range estimates yet but we can assume that the driving range of the Porsche Taycan should also increase by about a tenth. Maybe more than a tenth, because the manufacturer mentioned improved efficiency, thanks to a new rear-axle motor, a modified pulse inverter with optimized software, a next-generation heat pump, and a modified recuperation and all-wheel-drive strategy. Let's also note new wheels and tires: "All variants now come as standard with aerodynamically optimized wheels and reduced-rolling-resistance tires. New 21-inch wheels and tires were specially developed for this purpose." 2025 Porsche Taycan Pricing, Specs Overview (insideevs.com) Also, larger battery pack and charging speeds. "The 2025 Porsche Taycan brings a noticeable upgrade to the battery system. The capacity of the two battery options increased to 105 kilowatt-hours: base battery: 89.0 kWh (82.3 kWh usable) [up by 9.8 kWh or 12.4% from 79.2 kWh (71.0 kWh usable)] Perf. Battery Plus: 105.0 kWh (97.0 kWh usable) [up by 11.6 kWh or 12.4% from 93.4 kWh (83.7 kWh usable)] The Performance Battery Plus (105 kWh) can charge at up to 320 kW and both packs are promised to recharge from 10 to 80% state-of-charge (SOC) in just 18 minutes: base battery (89.0 kWh): up to 270 kW (10-80% SOC in 18 minutes) [previously 225 kW and 5-80% in 22.5 minutes] Perf. Battery Plus (105.0 kWh): up to 320 kW (10-80% SOC in 18 minutes) [previously 270 kW and 5-80% in 22.5 minutes] The Porsche Taycan's battery is an 800-volt class system, and all the numbers concern charging at high-power, high-voltage chargers. Charging at older 400-500 V DC chargers will be slower. The good news is that the 2025 Porsche Taycan is equipped with a 150 kW DC/DC converter as standard (previously it was a paid option). Charging at up to 150 kW from 10 to 80% SOC will take some 33 minutes, the company said.
