Taycan options that matter when you shop
Porsche sells most equipment as individual options, so the trim badge only tells you part of the story. These are the options worth confirming on any Taycan you look at.
- Performance Battery Plus: Bigger battery (105 kWh gross from 2025); worth confirming by VIN because it changes range.
- Porsche Active Ride: Optional on all-wheel-drive 2025 models only.
- Rear-axle steering and PDCC: Handling options that vary car by car.
- Onboard charger and charging options: Charging hardware differs by car and model year.
