What is the Porsche Taycan Release Date?

The Porsche Taycan is an all-electric sport sedan based upon the Mission E concept that was originally unveiled at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show. The name “Taycan” is a Eurasian word that means “a lively young horse”. An apt choice, given the athletic styling and outstanding performance capabilities of this luxury performance EV. It bears the classic sleek and sporty Porsche design, with some futuristic touches. Suffice it to say, the Taycan looks as just dynamic as it performs.
