What we like

It’s the most involving and fun electric car to drive and a relaxed cruiser when you’re not in the mood for thrills. While boot space is still well behind a traditional estate car or an SUV, it’s still a decent size even without the rear seats folded.

We also appreciate the hatchback access over the regular Taycan’s conventional bootlid, making it possible to load far larger items, and the improved head room, especially for rear seat passengers. The Cross Turismo also offers this, but with a higher-riding and softer sprung driving experience

What we don’t like

No Sport Turismo comes cheap, especially if you pick one of the faster versions. Its electric driving range isn’t as long as some rivals such as the Mercedes EQE and it’s not as spacious inside, either. It’s also very easy to add tens of thousands to the list price with Porsche’s extensive options list.
