New Colors

A whopping seven new exterior colors to the Taycan's palette for 2021: Mahogany Metallic, Cherry Metallic, Coffee Beige Metallic, Chalk, Neptune Blue, Ice Grey Metallic, and Frozenberry Metallic. The latter color, if it's anything like what Porsche has introduced on the Taycan overseas, takes on a pinkish hue. Inside the cabin, buyers can choose between five new color schemes: Black/Limestone Beige (standard), Blackberry, Blackberry/Slate Grey, Graphite Blue/Slate Grey, and Basalt Black/Meranti Brown.

Head-Up Display

The 2021 Porsche Taycan adds a color head-up display system to its features list. This item projects key data onto the windshield. The displayed information can be reconfigured by the driver.

Smartlift Function

Taycans equipped with adaptive air suspension get a new Smartlift function. Using GPS information, Smartlift can be programmed to automatically raise the suspension over certain, recurring locations such as local speed bumps and home or office driveways.

Subscriptions

Porsche is allowing owners to buy additional Taycan features through a monthly subscription program. Thanks to over-the-air updates, Porsche can install the features even after the vehicle has left the dealership. These "on-demand" items include the likes of lane-keeping assist and InnoDrive, the latter of which adapts the Taycan's speed according to road conditions including speed limits, turns, and traffic circles. Separately, Porsche is introducing SiriusXM with 360L to the Taycan range.

Charging

When making longer stops at a public charging station, Taycan drivers can choose to restrict charging to around 200 kW. This helps reduces power loss during charging and extends the battery pack's life. The feature can be selected on the infotainment system.
