Porsche has rolled out the Taycan 4S Black Edition in India, hitting the market with a price tag of Rs 2.07 crore (ex-showroom), offering a stylish, darker take on its electric sports sedan.
Stepping Up in Price and Performance
Priced at Rs 2.07 crore, this Black Edition is about Rs 11 lakh more expensive than the standard Taycan 4S model. Despite the higher price, it shares the same impressive powertrain.
Underneath, you’ll find the familiar 105kWh battery pack, providing 97kWh of usable energy. This setup gives the Taycan 4S Black Edition an official WLTP range of 408 kilometers.
Power is delivered to all four wheels through dual motors, churning out a combined maximum of 598hp and 710Nm of torque. This potent combination allows the car to sprint from 0 to 100kph in a rapid 3.7 seconds. Plus, it boasts fast charging capabilities, able to get an 18-minute boost on a 320kW DC fast charger.
Darker, More Defined Exterior Details
The “Black Edition” truly lives up to its name with a host of high-gloss black elements across the vehicle. This includes the front apron, side skirts, rear diffuser, and even the lower section of the outside rearview mirrors.
Even the badges and lettering receive the sleek black treatment, enhancing the car’s stealthy appeal. The 21-inch ‘Aero Design’ alloy wheels are finished in gloss black, and the headlights feature a smoky tint for an even more aggressive look.
Adding a touch of flair, the car also comes with puddle lamps that project the Porsche lettering in white. Interestingly, while it’s a “Black Edition,” Porsche offers a generous palette of 13 complimentary exterior color options, including unique shades like Provence (light purple), Frozenberry Metallic (pink), and Neptune Blue, alongside classics like Black and White. For those seeking even more exclusivity, additional premium color options are available, starting from Rs 5.11 lakh.
Inside the Black Edition Cabin
Step inside, and you’ll find that the Taycan 4S Black Edition maintains the same sophisticated layout as the standard model. It’s packed with a comprehensive list of features designed for comfort and convenience.
Highlights include a panoramic sunroof, a 360-degree camera for easy maneuvering, and a full ADAS suite for enhanced safety. The front seats are 14-way power-adjustable, ensuring optimal comfort for any driver or passenger.
Luxury extends to the climate control with a 4-zone system, and audiophiles will appreciate the 710W 14-speaker Bose sound system. For interior upholstery, you get two Race-tex (Alcantara/leatherette) options, including a sleek black, along with two monotone leather choices, also featuring a black option. Dual-tone interior themes remain an optional extra for personalization.
