The four-door Cross Turismo has an 800-volt architecture and is prepared for connection to the fast charging network. It has a system output of 447kW (600hp) and a range of 500km (NEDC). The vehicle is a derivative of the Taycan.

The first purely electric Porsche will be launched on the market in 2019.

The introduction of the Taycan is generating 1200 new jobs in Zuffenhausen. Great importance is attached to sustainability in production, which will therefore be carbon-neutral. Porsche plans to invest more than €6 billion in electromobility by 2022.
