German luxury sports car maker Porsche has embraced electrification and proved it could offer some of the best battery-powered cars available, albeit at a hefty price. The updated Taycan is one hell of an electric sports sedan, and the all-new electric Macan one-ups just about every competitor in terms of charging speed, handling, and ride comfort. The big Cayenne is also in for an electric upgrade soon.
We expect the upcoming 718 Cayman and Boxster to use the same shiny new electric architecture and offer at least a single-motor rear-wheel drive setup. That said, the facelifted Taycan is currently the company’s electric flagship in terms of performance, and it’s not based on the PPE architecture. There’s no official word on power output, battery capacity and charging speeds for the upcoming 718 EVs, so we’ll have to wait a little longer to find out what Porsche has in store for its followers.
