Porsche Taycan Turbo Crushes EPA Range Rating On Our 436-Mile Drive

We do 20% better than the EPA 201-mile range without even trying.

 

The first leg was the least efficient because of a couple of factors. First, as noted above the battery and cabin were cold so we were using a considerable amount of heat as we drove. Also, it was pouring rain for most of the 134-mile drive, so I expected that part of the trip to be the least efficient.
