Since it was announced, the first electric car from Porsche, the Taycan, has been very well received.
Pre-orders surged to 30 000 in a short time and everyone wanted to get a look at the interior.
Some leaked shots gave us an idea of what that might look like, but we were made to wait for official confirmation.
Now the luxury car manufacturer has released official rendered images of the interior, and they’re even better than we imagined.
Business Insider reports that the sports car will boast, amongst other things, an instrument panel inspired by the original Porsche 911.
The vehicle will have a 16.8-inch digital instrument panel, 10.9-inch infotainment screen, and an 8.4-inch touch pad below the infotainment screen that can be used for climate settings. The Taycan’s instrument panel was inspired by that of the original Porsche 911, and drivers will have four display options that will highlight speed, power, or navigation.
Many functions that would traditionally be controlled with switches or buttons will instead by controlled with a touch pad, screen, or voice command. The vehicle will also integrate Apple Music into its infotainment system.
Customers will be able to choose between two kinds of leather. For the vegans and vegetarians out there, there is also a leather-free option made of microfibers called Race-Tex.
The Taycan’s interior presents a contrast against Tesla’s interiors, which have increasingly concentrated settings and information into a single touchscreen that resembles a laptop screen or an iPad.
Like Tesla’s vehicles, the Taycan minimizes buttons and knobs, but the layout of its dashboard and center console more closely resemble those found in traditional passenger vehicles.
The Taycan will have over 600 horsepower, and the ability to accelerate to 100 km/h in less than 3,5 seconds.
The Taycan will have a range of over 310 miles per charge and the ability to get over 60 miles of range from a four-minute charge, according to Porsche.
The Taycan’s lithium-ion battery will run along the entire length of the car to create an even distribution of weight, Porsche has said.
The car will make its debut later this year.
It looks like Tesla is in for a bit of healthy competition.
