Porsche officially entered the electric car era with the new Taycan
Six billion euros and 1,200 new employees were employed just to invest in the launch of the Taycan, focusing on developing the Porsche Factory with 4.0 technology and a unique thinking campaign conducted on a full scale. Company: A commitment to sustainability in the field of electric mobility, the sports car maker is making a big difference and once again reaffirms its ability to hold the future.
"We estimate that more than 50% of Porsche cars delivered to customers since 2025 will be electric vehicles," said Lutz Meschke, vice president and board member of Finance and Technology. Information at Porsche. This involves long-term investment in many areas such as development and production, as well as human resources training. Even so, a goal of at least 15% profit will not change. "In addition to high performance processes, profits from digital products and services are also increasingly contributing to our economic success," said Meschke.
A good example of an effective approach is that Taycan's new production and assembly facilities are currently undergoing a "factory-in-factory" model at its main plant in Zuffenhausen. This development signals Porsche's move away from its traditional assembly line. "By applying flexible production, Porsche will become the first vehicle manufacturer to use the transport system," said Albrecht Reimold, executive director of product and cargo operations. unmanned in the commercial production process. "This will allow the sports car brand to combine the advantages of traditional principles in continuous production with the flexibility of a comprehensive assembly process. Workload cycles will also be increased in the same space. Applying the principle of "smart, green, streamlined", Porsche is also pursuing a resource-friendly production process. The production process of Taycan vehicles uses carbon neutral, with the goal of future production being to set up a completely idle plant, a plant that does not affect the environment.
The launch of the Taycan is creating 1,200 new jobs in Zuffenhausen. "The Taycan is one of the largest employment creation projects in Porsche history," said Andreas Haffner, executive director of Human Resources and Social Work. Not all of these new employees are involved in producing the Taycan; They will also build a two-door sports car. Porsche's goal for the Taycan is to create a strong team of experienced sports car makers and new employees. This development is the premise for large-scale training sessions to take place at the central manufacturing facility built in the Zuffenhausen plant. A digital training platform, containing over 1,200 topics related to digital conversion and allowing users to independently study according to their needs. This platform is applicable to all employees joining the Porsche team in the journey into the electronic and digital era.
The close link between the sporty version and the commercial version emphasizes the importance of technology sharing. Similar to the Porsche 919 Hybrid, the car has won several times in the Le Mans race, the Taycan is equipped with advanced 800V technology. This is one of the decisive factors for the 919, when the level Voltage is effectively set on the entire electric drive system: from the battery to the layout of the electronics and the power to the efficiency of the charging process. Applying pioneering methods and developing specific 800 V compliant specifications, Porsche has raised the bar of technical feasibility - including liquid-cooled lithium-ion batteries. In the field of intense competition as in sports racing, Porsche continues to develop its own technology. Brands have achieved unprecedented power density. For the Taycan line, the 800-V technology ensures that the lithium-ion battery is fully charged in just four minutes, providing enough power to operate on a 100 km (NEDC) road. The transfer of technology will reach a whole new level when Porsche joins Formula E in the 2019/2020 season.
The fast charging process requires a powerful charging system. That's why Porsche E-Performance must meet all the infrastructure requirements with on-road and home-based solutions. With a capacity of up to 22kW, Porsche Mobile Charger Connect is a quick and convenient charging method for the Taycan line at home.
