2-Line Blurb

140-Character Blurb

<p>The 2026 Porsche Taycan GTS Sport Turismo is a heady mix of pace, grace, and space. And it never needs to visit a gas station. Maximum range is 279 miles.</p>


Cons

Power, Ride and Handling

Driving Impressions

<p>With a total of 690 hp and 582 lb-ft of torque in launch control mode, the GTS Sport Turismo can accelerate from standstill to 60 mph in an entertaining (and perhaps a little scary) 3.1 seconds. This variant also comes with the Sport Chrono package and push-to-pass feature as standard, bringing a brief 93-hp boost for overtaking. In real life, we’ve found this car’s thrust to be immediate and immense. For comparison, the Mercedes-AMG EQS has a maximum of 751 hp, but is slower to 60 mph by 0.3 of a second.</p>
<p>Here’s the thing about the Taycan GTS Sport Turismo — it’s not just a great luxury electric car, it’s also a superb Porsche, a fine example of the company’s expertise from the feel of the steering to the performance of the brakes. The drivetrain contains two motors and all-wheel drive (AWD). These motors can also provide torque vectoring for ultra-efficient cornering. That said, we still say the optional rear-wheel steering feature is worth considering, because it also enhances maneuverability at slow speeds.</p>
<p>Compared with an entry-level Taycan sedan, this GTS model has upgraded brakes and a sport-tuned adaptive air suspension. Buyers might also be tempted to take ride quality and handling to another level entirely with the Porsche Active Ride suspension for extra-fast responses that control body roll, pitch, dive, and squat. We’re always impressed by this incredible engineering feat whenever we encounter it.</p>
<p>If we had a gripe, it’s the feel of the brake pedal. There’s a bit of initial travel where nothing much happens, which can be disconcerting. Beyond that point, though, the brakes are wonderful. We drove a version with the optional carbon ceramic brakes and recommend choosing this (admittedly expensive) extra because the Taycan GTS Sport Turismo is so fabulously fast. It’s therefore more confidence-inspiring to have such effective stoppers under one’s foot.</p>
<h3>Range and Charging</h3>
<p>The 2026 Taycan GTS Sport Turismo achieves a maximum range of 279 miles. This is with the standard-issue Performance Battery Plus. We’ve found Porsche’s range estimates to be achievable in real-world driving, and perhaps even a little understated. For some kind of context, the Tesla Model S (with a hatchback) has a maximum of 402 miles. But a Taycan’s appeal goes far beyond range. The Mercedes-AMG EQS is capable of 315 miles.</p>
<p>According to Porsche, charging the battery from 10% capacity to 80% takes 18 minutes on a DC fast charger’s highest setting. That’s a couple of minutes quicker than last year, and the Taycan lineup was already among the fastest in this respect. Using a home charger with a 240-volt supply, a full recharge takes about 9.5 hours, which is fine for overnight replenishment.</p>


Confident Exterior

Exterior

<p>From the nose to the B-pillars, this GTS Sport Turismo looks like a typical member of the Taycan family. Further back, however, comes the Turismo tail, more along the lines of a hatchback or wagon. We like this non-conformist take on a luxury electric car, offering a blend of performance and practicality. For a bit of extra presence, 20-inch alloy wheels are standard.</p>
<p>Charging ports are on both sides, which is extra convenient. A broad choice of paint colors is also available, including the option of matching to a customer-supplied sample.</p>
<p>At 16.3 feet, the Taycan GTS Sport Turismo is only about half an inch longer than its sedan stablemate. We cover the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/porsche/taycan-cross-turismo/">Taycan Cross Turismo</a> and the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/porsche/taycan/">Taycan</a> sedan in separate reviews.</p>


FAQs

Our Favorite Features and Tech

Favorite Features

<p><strong>Wireless phone integration</strong><br />
Cable-free Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard in every new Taycan. Apple CarPlay goes deep into the car’s systems. There’s also a cooled wireless charging pad. An In-Car Video feature allows streaming on the center and front passenger screens.</p>
<p><strong>Porsche Intelligent Range Manager</strong><br />
A standard feature throughout the whole 2026 Taycan lineup, this will calculate the most energy-efficient route, taking into account factors like real-time traffic and any charging requirements along the way.</p>
<p><strong>Porsche Electric Sport Sound</strong><br />
This might seem a bit cheesy in theory, a manufactured sound meant to simulate the growl and bark of a combustion engine and its exhaust system. In practice, we felt the hairs on the backs of our necks go up as the Taycan GTS Sport Turismo zipped past us.</p>
<p><strong>Burmester audio</strong><br />
It’s an option, and isn’t exactly a bargain. But we think this 21-speaker/1,455-watt surround-sound system with Dolby Atmos is about the best, most detailed, most immersive setup you will find in a car.</p>
<p><strong>Variable Light Control</strong><br />
Available with the panoramic glass roof, it can darken or lighten the glass electronically.</p>
<p><strong>Plug &amp; Charge</strong><br />
Plug &amp; Charge means that as you connect to a charger, the system recognizes your Taycan GTS Sport Turismo and uses the credit card information on file for a simple and streamlined process.</p>


Classy, Sporty Interior

Interior

<p>A mix of luxury and bespoke Porsche sportiness distinguishes the cabin of the Taycan GTS Sport Turismo. For example, there are standard adaptive sport front seats with 18-way power adjustment (they feel ideal), plus a heated GT Sport steering wheel that we think is exactly the right size.</p>
<p>Technology makes its presence felt in the 16.8-inch curved display that houses a digital instrument cluster and a 10.9-inch infotainment touchscreen, while the dashboard is topped off by the clock that comes with the standard-issue Sport Chrono package.</p>
<p>In usual Taycan fashion, this version is a 4-seater with two rear seats (a rear center seat is optional) and a decent amount of rear legroom. A fixed panoramic roof is also standard.</p>
<p>Cargo space behind the rear seats measures 14.3 cubic feet, expanding to 41.4 cubic feet when those seats are folded down. And all Taycans have an additional 2.9 cubic feet of space under the hood.</p>

KBB Editors' Overview

<p>Fast and fabulous, the Taycan GTS Sport Turismo is a particular blend of dynamics and dynamism, while adding a little extra practicality over its sedan stablemate. The Sport Turismo has a wagon/hatchback-like treatment at the rear, instead of a conventional trunk. And because it’s a GTS, this <a href="http://www.kbb.com/porsche/">Porsche</a> vehicle packs a lot of power and a sporty attitude, even though it’s not necessarily the most muscular Taycan.</p>
<p><em>We’ve logged hundreds of hours driving and evaluating this generation of <a href="https://www.kbb.com/electric-car/best-luxury-electric-cars/">luxury electric cars</a>, including the Porsche Taycan GTS Sport Turismo.</em></p>

Pricing - Static

<p>Even though there are hundreds of choices in the new-car market, there’s nothing else like a Porsche Taycan GTS Sport Turismo. Buyers might also be interested in a Taycan Cross Turismo, especially if they’d like less or more power. One possible alternative could be the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/mercedes-benz/mercedes-amg-eqs/">Mercedes-AMG EQS</a>, which comes with a hatchback and a price similar to this Porsche. Or the hatchback <a href="https://www.kbb.com/tesla/model-s/">Tesla Model S</a> Plaid can be furiously fast for far fewer Franklins, although we can’t imagine a Porsche aficionado settling for one of those.</p>
<p>Before buying a new Taycan GTS Sport Turismo luxury electric car, check the Kelley Blue Book Fair Purchase Price to know what you should be paying. Taycan resale values are comfortably above the class average. Recouping more money when selling a vehicle can mean a bigger down payment and lower monthly payments on the next one.</p>

Battery and Efficiency

Under the Hood

<p>The Performance Battery Plus energizes the 2026 Taycan GTS Sport Turismo, endowed with optimized thermal management and the ability to charge at high currents. When using an 800-volt charging station, the rate is 320 kW. To maximize charging speeds on a 400-volt network, Porsche also adds a 150-kW DC/DC converter as standard. The battery’s gross capacity is 105 kilowatt-hours (kWh), with a usable net capacity of 97 kWh.</p>
<p>The EPA rates the Taycan Sport Turismo&#8217;s combined efficiency rating at 82 MPGe. That translates to respectably low energy costs, but rivals from Tesla, Lucid, and Mercedes-Benz use electrons more efficiently.</p>
<h3>4-Year/50,000-Mile Warranty</h3>
<p>Porsche’s new-vehicle warranty lasts four years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. This includes 24-hour roadside assistance. The battery is covered for eight years or 100,000 miles. These arrangements are typical among European luxury vehicles.</p>
<h3>Safety Ratings</h3>
<p>Neither sedan nor Turismo (wagon) versions of the Taycan have been crash-tested by any agencies in the United States, but an independent European test program (Euro NCAP) gave the car a maximum overall score of five stars.</p>


What's new for

<p>The infotainment system is upgraded this year. Responses are faster, users gain the ability to download third-party apps, and Amazon Alexa can be employed with the voice-activated digital assistant. The standard Bose surround-sound system receives Dolby Atmos technology, while the optional Burmester rig also enjoys this enhancement.</p>
