Porsche Taycan vs. Tesla Model X

Style

The new Porsche Taycan is an all-electric sports coupe, featuring iconic Porsche styling that's sure to get you noticed everywhere you go around Preston Hollow. The new Tesla Model X is a crossover luxury SUV that doesn't compare when it comes to turning heads.
Both the Taycan and Porsche Taycan offer panoramic glass roofs, but the Taycan also allows you to choose a lightweight aluminum roof as well.

Performance

Both vehicles shine in terms of performance, offering multiple engine options, tremendous horsepower, and impressive range between charges to help you have more fun on your outings around Dallas. However, when it comes to athleticism, it's hard to beat the legacy and resume of any Porsche vehicle. The Taycan falls slightly short in standard horsepower with 522-horsepower in the Taycan 4S, compared to 670-horsepower in the base Model X model. However, choosing the Taycan Turbo will yield you 670-horsepower and 626 pounds-feet of torque.
When comparing the base Porsche Taycan 4S model with the Tesla Model X Long Range Plus, you can achieve a faster 0-60 mph time in just 3.8 seconds compared to 4.4 seconds in the Model X. Upgrade to a higher trim level and you can reach 0-60 mph in as little as 2.6 seconds in the Taycan and 2.7 seconds in the Model X.
When properly equipped, the Taycan allows you to reach a top speed of 161 mph, allowing you to fully appreciate its athleticism on the nearest race track near you. The Tesla Model X achieves up to 160 mph as a top speed.
Even with its wind tunnel, aerodynamic design, the Tesla Model X has a larger drag coefficient than the Taycan does, with 0.25 in the Model X compared to 0.22 in the Taycan.

Technology and Safety Features

Both vehicles offer a bevy of cutting-edge features throughout. However, only the Porsche Taycan comes equipped with standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, allowing you to enjoy seamless control of your mobile device while you're on the go using either voice controls or on the standard 8.4-inch touchscreen display. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto aren't offered on any Tesla Model X models.
Both the Porsche Taycan and Tesla Model S come equipped with forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and other helpful driving aids. The Taycan is the only one to come with front and rear parking cameras to help you get in and out of the tightest spots without damaging your vehicle.
