The 2022 Porsche Taycan has no trim lineup and comes as a sole drive that has a sporty interior with a premium feel altogether. The available customization regarding upholsteries and exterior styling are also one of class in their own rights. Though the power curve and range can still be upscaled but the flooring remains thrilling.Â

"Agile, fast, and attractive, the Taycan is everything you'd expect from an all-electric Porsche." - TrueCar
The 2022 Porsche Taycan thrashes 321 hp on the ground with its 79.2 kWh performance battery pack that is coupled with a 2-speed direct drive. However, the power can be upscaled to 402 hp with Launch Control for the same setup. Also, a 469 hp configuration through Performance Battery Plus with Launch Control is there in the inventory.
Having such a performance dynamics is equated with the Taycan 2022's Porsche Active Suspension Management that maintains the wheel geometry and ride height all at once. That being said, the Porsche Recuperation Management and Porsche Traction Management have been integrated as well to further assist that stature.
Capable of timing just 5.1 seconds from 0-60 MPH, the Porsche Taycan 2022 is simply a devil in its class. While, the top speed of 143 MHP upholds that stance. However, it is refrained from wilderness by its 14.2-inch front and 14.1-inch rear vented disc brakes along with 6-piston and 4-piston aluminum monobloc calipers respectively.

Based on the analysis, the Porsche Taycan comes out to be almost 500 lbs lighter than the Audi e-Tron GT, meaning a lower side lateral shifts at the time of cornering. However, such a difference is actually brought down to null with enhanced driving assists. Some of the notable exterior features:
"The Taycan represents Porsche's foray into the electric vehicle space, and it does not disappoint." - Edmunds
Porsche makes pretty solid, and safe cars, the price you pay for one, is something that assures safety, and the reputation of Porsche is always there to back up these claims. Safety institutes and crash-test agencies like the IIHS and NHTSA have not yet tested the 2022 Taycan, and usually, cars like these are not tested by the agencies.
Apart front the good reputation and strong history to back up the Taycan, it also has a lot of standard and advanced safety features included with the car, these features include 10-airbags, brake assist, Porsche traction management, stability control all available as standard, while a few advanced safety features and driver aids are available as standard too, but most of the features are optional extras.
Standout safety features:
Both the 2022 Porsche Taycan and the 2022 Tesla Model S are potent electric drives. But the Model S, being the trendsetter, has got better power surge, range reach, and tech-ends for almost parallel pricing. So, it has to be the Tesla Model S over the Taycan 2022.
Audi E-Tron GT is a fairly new addition in the electric sedan segment yet it has the refinement, tech, and features on offer that make it a worthy competitor. Though the Audi's range is less as per standard but it is more in comparison to the 2022 Porsche Taycan along with better performance dynamics. However, it costs you relatively higher too, thereby, equalizing the proposition between the two.
The Lucid Air is surely one of the finest electric premium sedans with loads of high-end assets and features. Be it range or performance, the Lucid Air simply outshines the 2022 Porsche Taycan. Its technology pursuits is also no less than any one in this segment. Therefore, it has to be the pick between the two for now.
The 2022 Porsche Taycan has got the sheer prowess to get you excited while driving, however, the rivals are still more spirited and thrilling in their pedalling. The range reach is also below the standard references. Though, it is content in its tech side but there is a lot to be achieved in its powertrain. So, it is not the choice of the hour for now.
