There’s little reason to think that Porsche, left to its own devices, would have made an electric supersedan. Sure, its founder invented the series hybrid at the end of the 19th century, but this is the company that kept the air-cooled 911 in production for three decades. It’s conservative. But it’s also incapable of making a bad car. When it found itself in the position that it pretty much had to make an EV, it went ahead and made the best-driving one ever produced. The Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo is just as happy to blitz the Nürburgring Nordschleife as summit the dirt driveway to your country home. — RO
