Yes, the Taycan turbo s starts at a mere 185k, but in usual Porsche tradition, options add quickly and significantly to the total cost.
Leather wrapped charging plug covers: 1500
Battery charge telemetry to phone 2500
But the kicker is a Porsche Design home charging station for 75000. Sure to be a looker and a great conversation piece at your next home event.

The fact that it's believable is hilarious.

Porsche - we take the future of EV seriously
Also Porsche - Lets price this completely and hopelessly out of reach

Who cares? Now that we know it’s way slower than a Model 3, might as well just get a Leaf.

Out of reach of who? the typical Porsche owner might as well pay the 75k just to avoid the annoyance of finding an electrician and a charging setup.

TBH this is believable because BMW showed this off but never put it into production.
I could see Porsche doing something similar.

Even bog standard DC fast charging stations are outrageously expensive compared to “regular” home versions. I can see the $75k as justified, especially if it’s Porsche designed.

Is that for the 350kw home charger? Does it come with a substation?

I can’t even imagine what the install cost would be at a residence.
At 270kW, it supports more power than a good chunk of my neighborhood. It’s equivalent to 120V * 150A(standard service on my street) * 15 houses.
It’s pretty crazy.

75k for the charger? That could be enough to start p!$$ing folks off. The Porsche income stream gurus might be wrong on this one.

S is 20 seconds off the C8’s time still.
With the costs adding up on the Porsche they will sell a few.

I found it hilarious that the charging cable (of your choice) was free.
