Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo: Electrifying Performance in Style

Ready to experience the future of driving? The Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo redefines performance with its stunning electric power and sleek design—discover more about this thrilling ride.

I had the chance to take a ride in the Taycan 4S Cross Turismo through the busy streets of New York and joining me for the drive was none other than car expert Paul Scott. As we cruised down the Hudson, Paul shared his insights on this electric marvel. What stood out the most wasn’t just the speed or the technology—it was how Porsche has managed to combine luxury and electric power into a package that’s truly thrilling to drive.

Electrifying Performance That Redefines EVs

“It’s All About the Power Surge,” Says Paul Scott

When we hit the accelerator, the first thing that struck me was the immediate surge of power. 469 horsepower isn’t something you’d typically expect from an electric vehicle, but the Taycan 4S brings it. As Paul puts it, “The Taycan 4S Cross Turismo doesn’t just take off—it launches. The instant torque you get from the electric motors is unlike anything you’ve felt in a traditional combustion engine car. You’re at 60 mph in 4.8 seconds flat, and that feeling of speed is addictive.”

With the Launch Control engaged, the car kicks into Overboost mode, taking the output up to 469 hp, with a top speed of 137 mph. It’s the kind of power that makes you feel like you can conquer anything—whether it’s cruising down the city streets or powering through a winding road.

A Smooth Ride with Precision Engineering

While we’re cruising through New York’s iconic streets, I can’t help but notice how effortlessly the Taycan 4S Cross Turismo handles the bumps and turns. Thanks to the Adaptive Air Suspension and Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), the ride feels like you’re gliding over the pavement. Paul explains, “What sets the Taycan apart is how it balances the dynamic performance with the smooth ride quality. It’s precise, responsive, and comfortable all at once.”

It’s clear that Porsche has gone above and beyond to make sure this vehicle isn’t just fast—it’s also a joy to drive in any condition.

Range and Charging: A Seamless Experience

Efficiency Meets Innovation

As we make our way through downtown Manhattan, I start to wonder about the car’s range. A common concern with electric vehicles is how far you can go on a single charge, but the Taycan 4S Cross Turismo puts those fears to rest. With an EPA-estimated range of 235 miles, it’s more than capable of handling both city commutes and weekend road trips.

Paul nods in agreement. “The range on this thing is impressive for its performance level. The balance of speed and efficiency is where the Taycan truly shines. Plus, with the 93.4 kWh battery, you’re getting a solid range that makes this car practical for everyday use, not just weekend joyrides.”

Quick Charging: Less Waiting, More Driving

Of course, like any modern electric vehicle, charging speed is essential. The Taycan 4S Cross Turismo comes with DC fast charging, allowing you to go from 5% to 80% in just 93 minutes on a 50 kW charger. If you’re in a rush, Porsche’s maximum charging power gets you to 80% in an astonishing 22.5 minutes. That’s impressive when you consider how much performance this car delivers.

“We were in the city for a few hours,” says Paul, “and we were able to plug in during a quick break. By the time we were ready to hit the road again, the car was good to go. That convenience factor really makes the Taycan ideal for a busy lifestyle.”

Sleek Design Meets High-Tech Features

“This Car Turns Heads Everywhere,” Paul Points Out

The Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo isn’t just about performance—it’s a piece of art. As we cruise through New York, heads turn wherever we go. The 19-inch Taycan S Aero wheels and the Fixed Panoramic Roof give the car an elegant and sporty aesthetic, while also contributing to its aerodynamic efficiency. I can see why Paul says, “It’s the perfect mix of sleekness and power. Every detail is designed with purpose, whether it’s the aggressive front end or the rear light strip that screams ‘Porsche’.”

Inside, the cabin offers Adaptive Sport Seats wrapped in Race-Tex microfiber, creating a race-inspired yet luxurious feel. As Paul points out, “The interior feels just as dynamic as the exterior. The GTS interior package adds a touch of refinement without taking away from the performance-focused essence of the car.”

Built for Comfort and Control

The driving experience isn’t just about speed; it’s about control. The Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) ensures that the car stays level and responsive, no matter how sharp the turn. On our drive, I could feel the car adjust and adapt to the road, maintaining stability even at higher speeds.

“We were navigating through some of the city’s tighter corners, and I could feel the precision in every turn,” says Paul. “The Taycan 4S Cross Turismo makes even the most aggressive driving feel like a smooth, controlled experience.”

Conclusion: A Truly Electrifying Experience

After spending the day with the Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo, it’s clear that this is a vehicle that doesn’t just meet expectations—it exceeds them. It combines the raw power and performance Porsche is known for with the efficiency and innovation of an electric vehicle. Whether you’re in the city or cruising down the open road, this car is a reminder that the future of driving doesn’t have to sacrifice excitement.

As Paul puts it, “The Taycan 4S Cross Turismo is a perfect example of what happens when performance and sustainability come together. It’s an electric car that doesn’t compromise on the thrill of driving. It makes every moment on the road feel like an adventure.”

If you’re ready to experience the future of driving, the Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo is waiting. With its cutting-edge technology, stunning design, and heart-pounding performance, it’s more than just a car—it’s a way of life.
