Porsche Taycan Turbo GT and Turbo GT Weissach: The New Flagships

 

Introduction:

Porsche is pushing its boundaries with the launch of the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT and the even more powerful Turbo GT with the Weissach package. These models represent the most impressive production cars ever produced by the German sports car manufacturer. In this article, we will explore the remarkable features, performance, and innovations of these new Porsche flagships.

Power and Speed:

The Turbo GT delivers a staggering 1,108 hp, accelerating to 100 km/h in just 2.2 seconds, embodying the same level of performance for the Taycan as the GT3 and GT3 RS versions for the legendary 911. The Turbo GT and Turbo GT Weissach are designed to deliver maximum performance, with acceleration times that even surpass the Turbo S.

Technological Innovations:

The Taycan Turbo GT and Turbo GT Weissach are not only more powerful but also more advanced than ever. With a specific tuning of the Porsche Active Ride suspension and special tires mounted on lightweight forged wheels, they offer an unparalleled driving experience. Additionally, the electric motors use advanced current converters and silicon carbide as a semiconductor material for increased efficiency.

Aerodynamics and Weight Savings:

The Weissach package adds additional aerodynamic components, such as air deflectors under the car and a new diffuser at the front, while also saving approximately 70 kg of weight compared to the Turbo GT. With a fixed rear wing made of carbon fiber generating 220 kg of downforce, the Weissach variant offers unmatched grip and stability.

Price and Availability:

The Taycan Turbo GT is available starting from €255,300 including VAT and is now on sale. Despite the high price, purchasing such supercars in our country is facilitated by the exemption from registration tax and road tax in Flanders, as well as the full tax deduction for professional purchases.

Conclusion:

With the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT and Turbo GT Weissach, Porsche has set new standards in performance, technology, and innovation. These models embody the spirit of Porsche's sports heritage and offer an unparalleled driving experience for enthusiasts of speed and precision.
