    Porsche Taycan Sold Out For First Year

    Porsche has been shocked (excuse the pun) by the reaction of their customers to the first electric Porsche, the Taycan.

    The interest in the Taycan is so big in fact that it is already sold out for its first year of production.

    Never before in the history of Porsche has it sold so many cars ahead of launch, and the sudden spike in demand now has the company scrambling to see if it can increase production.

    The global boss of Porsche, Oliver Blume, told media at the Geneva motor show the company has “20,000 pre-orders already” even though customers haven’t seen the final production car.

    Porsche has only shown the Mission E concept car (pictured abouve), but has not released price estimates.

    It certainly wont sound like a regular Porsche but apparently Taycan customers can look forward to customising the sound of their electric car. Blume mentioned that when they showed Mark Webber the sound, “he was very astonished.”

    “I’m not a fan to make an application of a combustion engine for an electric car, that’s not authentic,” said Mr Blume. “We adapted the sound from the electric engine [into the cabin]. The driver can choose to drive with or without it. You have the option to make it louder.”

    • First time seeing the new Bentley Bentayga S in the metal and wow it is striking.

Those 22" wheels look superb, especially in this spec.

Starts from R4,695,000 and that gets you a twin-turbo V8 delivering 542 hp (404 kW) and 770 Nm of torque.

    • #MercedesAMGMonday done right with the brutal AMG GT Black Series recently snapped by @matts_cars_za for @amg_driving_academy_za 😎

This is the first time a GT Black Series has been shot on track in SA and potentially the first time one has posed with the slightly less hardcore AMG GT R Pro.

    • It has been quite some time since this Koenigsegg CCXR was seen in South Africa but it made an appearance today and @thecarscene_ managed to snap it in Cedar, Fourways.

As far as we know, there are only 2 Eggs in SA. This one and an orange CCX in East London which has also not been seen in quite some time.

    • #WideWednesday showing off this bold Urus sporting the Novitec Esteso widebody and aero kit done by @race1_ 

It also packs a full Supersprint exhaust so you will certainly hear it before you see it coming.
