Thrilling Drives Ahead
When you’re in the market for fine-tuned performance and the most advanced technology in a luxurious package, Porsche offers several options that will add excitement to every drive.
At Capital Porsche in Tallahassee, we’re passionate about this premium brand. We’ve put together this comparison guide to highlight some of the differences between four of the vehicles Porsche offers.
Taycan
This electric sedan provides more than just an EPA-estimated 192 miles of driving range. With Launch Control, the Taycan can accelerate from 0-60 in 2.6 seconds with up to 560 kW of power. The 800-watt performance battery offers improved charging and drive performance.
The exterior design is eye-catching and functional, with four-point LED headlights and side air intakes for better performance. Inside, you’ll have access to standard Apple Music®, Porsche voice control, and more via a 16.8-inch curved display.
The Porsche Connect App helps you get the most out of the Taycan with everything you need right at your fingertips. Check your remaining travel range, check your charging status, and set your desired interior temperature from your smartphone.
Several driver-assist technologies are available to make longer drives and crowded streets easier to navigate. Active Lane Keep and Traffic Jam Assist work together to help keep you Taycan centered in your lane and maintain distance from vehicles in front.
911 Carrera
Whether you choose the coupe or the convertible, you’ll enjoy plenty of power and iconic style in the 911 Carrera.
The twin-turbocharged and inter-cooled engine offers up to 379 horsepower and takes you from 0-60 in 3.8 seconds with the Sport Chrono Package. Active air intake flaps open and closes automatically for optimum cooling, and the sports exhaust system provides the sound you love.
The exterior of this classic car still includes the sleek lines every 911 has included for over 50 years, with modern updates like an LED vertical brake light and four-point daytime running lights. The interior is designed with you in mind, placing vital controls and information close at hand.
An available slide/tilt sunroof features an electric roll-up sunblind for shade on bright days. The 10.9-inch touchscreen keeps you connected to standard Apple CarPlay®, Porsche Connect, and more. When you want the full audio experience, choose the available Bose® Surround Sound System or step it up to the available Burmester® High-End Surround Sound System.
Panamera
The all-new twin-turbocharged V6 is lighter and more compact than previous engines, cranking out up to 440 horsepower and a 0-60 acceleration of 4.2 seconds. This engine is mated to a new 8-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) transmission transferring that power more efficiently.
Making the Panamera uniquely yours is simple, with new wheel options up to 21 inches and wider tires for better contact with the road. The rear spoiler integrates into the body and extends automatically to reduce the rear lift.
Not only will you have access to dozens of apps via the 12-inch touchscreen display, but your passengers in the rear will also have their own available touchscreen. The available panoramic sunroof brings more of the outdoors in.
The Panamera includes standard safety and driver-assist technologies that make maneuvering easier, such as ParkAssist which includes a reversing camera and Surround View. Adaptive Cruise Control helps you regulate and maintain a set distance from the vehicle ahead using front sensors.
718 Cayman
If you’re looking for a powerful and fun coupe, choose the 718 Cayman. The turbocharged boxer 4 engine powers a maximum of 350 horsepower, taking the Cayman from 0-60 in 4.0 seconds when equipped with the Sport Chrono Package.
Stand out from the crowd in one of the available eye-catching colors and wheel options, including sizes up to 20 inches. The Cayman features new exterior mirrors, too, with a v-shaped mirror base.
Grip the new sport steering wheel derived from the 918 Spyder, and experience the driver-centric interior. You can pair your smartphone or Apple Watch® to remotely control selected vehicle functions.
Every drive can be a safer one, even on rough roads, with Porsche Stability Management. Each Cayman comes equipped with this system for improved traction and a higher level of agility and safety.
