[Asia Economy Reporter Changhwan Lee] Porsche Korea announced on the 14th that it will officially launch the 'Taycan Cross Turismo' and the new ‘911 GT3’ in Korea.

Porsche emphasized that the electric sports car Taycan Cross Turismo is equipped with an innovative 800-volt architecture electric drive system. It added that the new high-tech chassis, featuring all-wheel drive and adaptive air suspension, guarantees stable dynamism both on and off-road.

It is also characterized by 47mm more headroom for rear seat passengers and a spacious rear tailgate that allows for a loading capacity of 1,200 liters.

The Taycan Cross Turismo comes standard with a Performance Battery Plus with a maximum capacity of 93.4 kWh. The Taycan 4 Cross Turismo, with 380 horsepower (PS), accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.1 seconds with launch control and an overboost output of up to 476 horsepower (476 PS, 350 kW), with a top speed of 220 km/h.

The Taycan 4S Cross Turismo, with 490 horsepower (PS), accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.1 seconds with an overboost output of up to 571 horsepower (571 PS, 420 kW), and has a top speed of 240 km/h.

The Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo, with 625 horsepower (PS), accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.3 seconds with an overboost output of up to 680 horsepower (680 PS, 500 kW), and has a top speed of 250 km/h.

The domestic driving range for the Taycan Cross Turismo 4, 4S, and Turbo is 287 km, 287 km, and 274 km, respectively.

The Taycan 4 Cross Turismo will begin customer deliveries this December, with plans to sequentially launch the 4S and Turbo models in the first half of next year.

The sales prices for the Taycan 4, 4S, and Turbo Cross Turismo, including VAT, are 138 million KRW, 154.5 million KRW, and 206 million KRW, respectively.

Porsche Korea also unveiled the new ‘911 GT3’ on the same day.

The naturally aspirated 4.0-liter 6-cylinder boxer engine, producing a maximum output of 510 horsepower (PS), is based on the drivetrain of the 911 GT3 R, which has been proven through endurance racing. The new 911 GT3, equipped with a 7-speed Porsche Dual-Clutch Transmission (PDK), accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds, with a top speed of 318 km/h.

Thanks to the new wing and diffuser elements, downforce significantly increases during high-speed cornering, and by utilizing refined aerodynamic know-how gained from motorsports experience, it generates greater downforce without affecting the drag coefficient.

Every detail of the 911 GT3 reflects its racing DNA. The cockpit, which incorporates features of the current 911 model, includes a track screen that, when a button is pressed, displays essential circuit driving information such as tire pressure, oil pressure and temperature, fuel tank level, and coolant temperature on both sides of the central tachometer, which shows engine speed up to 10,000 rpm.

The sales price of the new 911 GT3, including VAT, is 220 million KRW.
