Tangerang, July 26, 2024 – At the prestigious Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS) 2024, Porsche Indonesia showcased two of its latest models, the all-electric Taycan and the third generation of the Panamera. These unveilings mark a significant milestone in Porsche’s journey toward sustainable and luxurious mobility.
A Bold Step Towards the Future: The New Porsche Taycan
The new Taycan represents a bold stride towards the future of electric mobility for Porsche Indonesia. According to Alexander Riedel, General Manager of Porsche Indonesia, the comprehensively upgraded Taycan reflects the brand’s commitment to innovation and luxury. The Taycan’s enhancements include increased power, a longer driving range, faster acceleration, and improved battery charging efficiency.
The latest Taycan boasts an impressive system output of 700 kW or 952 PS, surpassing its predecessor, the Taycan Turbo S, by 60 kW. With Launch Control, the vehicle can produce an additional 140 kW, making it one of the most powerful car models in its class. This increased power translates into a remarkable performance, allowing the Taycan and Taycan Turbo S to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.8 and 2.4 seconds, respectively, significantly quicker than their earlier versions.
Moreover, the new Taycan offers an extended range of up to 678 km, depending on the variant, which caters to the needs of long-distance travelers. The advanced charging technology enables the Taycan’s battery to recharge from 10% to 80% in just 18 minutes using DC fast charging. This feature underscores Porsche’s commitment to providing practical and efficient solutions for electric vehicle users.
Enhanced Luxury and Performance: The Latest Porsche Panamera
The third-generation Panamera continues to set the standard for luxury sports sedans, offering unparalleled sophistication and customization options. As Riedel emphasized, the Panamera remains the top choice for those seeking to make bold statements and forge unique paths in the automotive world.
The latest Panamera features a luxurious cabin equipped with a 10.9-inch touchscreen that provides essential vehicle information and controls the infotainment system. The head unit supports both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, allowing seamless integration with smartphones for easy access to apps and media.
Porsche has also introduced a two-chamber, two-valve air suspension system as standard in the new Panamera. This system, which includes Porsche Active Suspension Management, offers enhanced comfort by separating compression and rebound control, allowing for more precise tuning of the vehicle’s handling characteristics.
To cater to different driving preferences, the Panamera offers three driving modes: Normal, Sport, and Sport+. These modes allow drivers to tailor the vehicle’s performance to suit various conditions and driving styles, ensuring a dynamic and enjoyable driving experience.
Anticipation Builds as Prices Remain a Mystery
Despite the official launch and marketing of the new Taycan and Panamera, Porsche Indonesia has yet to disclose the prices of these models. This decision adds an element of intrigue and anticipation among potential buyers and automotive enthusiasts. The combination of cutting-edge technology, luxurious features, and the brand’s storied heritage makes these vehicles highly desirable, regardless of the final price tags.
The GIIAS 2024 event has provided a fitting stage for Porsche Indonesia to showcase its latest innovations, highlighting the brand’s commitment to combining luxury with sustainability. As the automotive industry continues to evolve towards electric mobility, Porsche’s new Taycan and Panamera models stand out as prime examples of what the future holds—luxurious, high-performance vehicles that do not compromise on comfort or style.
