## What is a Taycan Turbo S actually like?

The acceleration is the part nobody is ready for. There is no noise, no gearchange and no drama, just the horizon arriving. Away from that it is a low, wide, comfortable saloon with excellent seats and a quiet cabin. The steering is better than a car of this weight has any right to have.

## How does the charging work in practice?

The 800-volt system takes up to 320kW on the fastest DC chargers, which puts a 10-80% top-up in the region of 18 minutes when you find one that delivers it. On a 7kW home or hotel charger it fills overnight. Plan around chargers rather than around range and the car is straightforward to live with.

## Is it a sensible car for a business trip?

Arguably more so than anything else here. It seats four properly, takes luggage front and rear, and it is close to silent at motorway speed, which makes calls on the move painless. It is also discreet: to most people on the road it reads as a Panamera.

## What does it cost to hire a Taycan Turbo S?

A refundable £3,500 deposit is held and the excess is £3,500. The allowance is 12,000 miles a year with £1.50 a mile beyond. The car arrives charged and the return condition is agreed in advance.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can you hire a Porsche Taycan Turbo S in the UK?

Yes, on a sourced basis. We arrange it through a vetted partner rather than supplying it from our own fleet, and a specific car and your dates are confirmed before anything is agreed.

### How fast is the Taycan Turbo S?

Up to 939bhp with launch control engaged, 0-62mph in 2.4 seconds and a top speed of 162mph. Electric cars are limited by gearing rather than power at the top end, which is why the top speed looks modest next to the acceleration.

### Why is it called a Turbo if it is electric?

It is a model name rather than a description of the hardware. There is no turbocharger; Porsche uses Turbo and Turbo S to mark the top two output levels across the range.

*Performance & Prestige hires vehicles from its own fleet and, where a vehicle is not one of ours, arranges it through a vetted partner. Cars marked "we can source" are subject to confirmation before anything is agreed. Rates include VAT. Nothing is booked or paid for through this website: a person confirms the car, the full cost and the delivery slot with you first.*

*Pre-launch note: the rates, driver criteria, deposits, excesses and mileage allowances quoted here are read from Performance & Prestige's own catalogue data, which is still being confirmed with the owner and the insurer.
