While the Porsche Taycan was unveiled to the world back in September of last year, the Taycan 4S only broke cover in November at the 2019 Los Angeles Auto Show. Now, it joins its Turbo and Turbo S siblings in U.S. dealerships.
The 4S is the entry-level variant of the Taycan range, priced upwards of $103,800. However, if you opt for the Performance Battery Plus package, that’ll up the MSRP to $110,380.
Of course, getting out there to see one in person is a bit problematic given the ongoing global pandemic, but that doesn’t mean you can’t buy one. Meanwhile, those who have already placed orders can look forward to finally getting their cars in the coming days.

In some states, you can still head over to your Porsche dealership and collect the car in person, or you can instead opt to receive it via contactless home delivery, part of the carmaker’s ‘Porsche at Your Service’ program – this way you won’t have to leave the house, which is definitely for the best.
The Porsche Taycan 4S puts down an impressive 522 HP (530 PS), although you can boost that number by getting the previously-mentioned 93.4-kWh Performance Battery Plus package, in which case you end up with 563 HP (571 PS). This configuration will let you get from zero to 60 mph (96 km/h) in just 3.8 seconds.
The EPA estimated range for the Taycan 4S is 203 miles (327 km).
“The new Taycan 4S sits right at the heart of our electrified model line-up, delivering the effortless performance and engaging dynamics expected of a Porsche sports car with the space and connectivity that make it viable for everyday use. Even in these challenging times, it is a credit to our dealers that they have developed innovative ways to support our customers. This means the first of the Taycan 4S’s to arrive here in the US will be delivered by our dealers to awaiting customers in the coming days,” said Porsche exec Klaus Zellmer.
