Overview
The 2026 Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo is a luxury electric performance wagon that pairs dual motors with all-wheel drive. Output ranges from 429 hp in the 4 to 938 hp in the Turbo S, powered by a 93-kWh battery and an 800-volt architecture. The 4 reaches 60 mph in 4.5 seconds, while the Turbo S cuts that to 2.4 seconds.
Maximum range stands at 277 miles in the base model. DC fast charging at 320 kW restores the battery from 10 to 80 percent in about 18 minutes. Ride height increases by 0.8 inches over the sedan, and a standard Gravel mode supports light off-road use. Rivals are as varied as the Tesla Model S, Mercedes-AMG E 53 Hybrid Wagon, and Audi RS 6 Avant.
