Porsche have not only upgraded the Taycan to over 1000hp (in short bursts), but their GT department has also added some sparkle to the handing (particularly in the no-cost optional Weissach package). Despite it's 2.2 tonne weight, it can sprint to 60mph in a whisker over 2 seconds, top out at 190mph, and offers a range of up to 350 miles. There's also the small matter of a 7:07 lap of the Nurburgring, with standard carbon ceramic brakes a big factor.
The bodywork has recevied some additional aero - in particular a large fixed rear wing, and looks particularly menacing in its bright purple launch spec. There's also the option to remove the rear seats, a bit pointless in a large GT though.
At £186k in the UK, the Turbo GT is a big chunk more expensive than Tesla's Plaid or Audi's RS GT Performance, but it is a Porsche, and probably offers the greater driving thrills.
