According to foreign media reports, Porsche is upgrading the range of its vehicles through a software update, with the maximum range improvement reaching 14.2%.
Currently, the Porsche Taycan has two types of batteries: one is the 79.2 kWh battery on the Taycan/Taycan 4S, and the other is the 93.4 kWh battery. The 2022 model’s EPA range varies from 320 km to 396 km depending on the model.
With this software update, the Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo saw the greatest improvement in range, with the EPA standard range increasing from 328 km to 375 km, an improvement of 14.2%. The Taycan GTS and Taycan GTS Cross Turismo did not see any improvements.
This software update also improves the charging efficiency of the Taycan series. However, according to reports from foreign media, Porsche’s press release states:
“The update is free for consumers and consumers can visit Porsche service centers during the update period.”
Therefore, it seems that this update must be carried out at a Porsche dealership.
