Porsche stunned the world two years ago with the promise of launching its all-electric car. They promised the production of their electric car (Taycan) will start in the year 2020.

According to Rober Meier, the model-line director of the Taycan, ”We are expecting a price somewhere between a Cayenne and a Panamera.” Cayenne costs approx. $65,700 whereas the price of Panamera is around $85,000. So, we believe Taycan base model will costs you around $75,000.
