CarsCoops colleagues just caught a Porsche Taycan GT mysteriously rolling on the Nordschleife, and I say “mysteriously” because this has happened days after Tesla set a new record in the same place with its Model S Track Package. The official readings indicate that the American model marked 7:25.23, which makes it the fastest electric in the Green Hell.
But now, with the appearance of the Porsche Taycan GT in the “Ring”, things are about to change again. Let’s remember that the GT will be something like the Supreme TaycanIn fact, there are still many possibilities that the brand assigns another name to it and among some of its visual variants is the following:
- Rear spoiler type 911 GT3 (not final)
- carbon ceramic brakes
- Estimated power: 986 Hp
Of course Breaking the mark set by Tesla doesn’t depend on more power and a spoiler, but on a set of complicated equations aerodynamic, physical, mathematical and human (hands to handle it) that translate into specific components such as tires, wheels, construction materials, shapes, batteries, engines, and all that kind of thing that Porsche knows “a little”.
Now, we are talking about a margin of difference of 8 seconds that the Tesla “lowered” the Porsche, which will sound little to you, but in reality it is a world when it comes to times and track records, so We will be attentive to the evolution that the Porsche GT (or whatever it is going to be called) is having to achieve its goal.
What do you think, will Porsche be able to surpass Tesla again? Share your comments with us.
