This past month, Porsche announced they had driven from Los Angeles to New York City while charging the vehicle for a total of two and a half hours. The drive covered a total distance of 2,834.5 miles and required a total charging time of two hours, 26 minutes, and 48 seconds of charging to complete the journey.
The route of the historic journey was carefully crafted using several apps and made use of the Porsche Taycan's 93.4-kilowatt battery pack. The all-electric powertrain offers a total driving range of 225 miles. In total, the drive across the United States of America took five days, with time set aside for documentation on the trip.
In terms of running costs, the trip costs under $80, a far cry from the cost of fuel to cover the same distance. Porsche is proud of the amazing accomplishments and will continue to push forward with the 2022 Porsche Taycan.
