Is The Porsche Taycan Going To Suffer The Same Fate As The 928?

There are certain analogies between the 928 and Taycan's production cycles, and here's why it may spell trouble for the EV sedan

Global Taycan sales have dropped by almost 50 percent, in 2024

The Porsche Taycan was the brand's first EV and until recently, the fastest-selling performance EV

Chinese EV incentives have played havoc on European EV sales

At the same time, the Panamera lineup will follow in the footsteps of the Cayenne

This means that, alongside the ICE/ hybrid-powered variants, an EV will be introduced

The Panamera is positioned above the Taycan as a larger, more luxurious proposition

At the same time, Porsche continues pouring new tech in the Panamera, meaning it's here to stay

The Taycan could have the same fate as the Porsche 928 30 years before

The 930 Turbo may be why the Porsche 928 came around in the first place

The V-8 Porsche coupe experienced declining sales in the mid-1980s, eventually resulting in the 928's discontinuation

With a new, enriched lineup, the spotlight could, once again, shine on the Panamera

What do you think? Will the Taycan suffer a similar fate to the 928?
