JAKARTA - The first example of Porsche's electric car, the Taycan Cross Turismo, has arrived in Australia. While deliveries to customers will begin in the coming weeks.

The Porsche Taycan electric sedan – which goes on sale locally in March 2021 – is available in three class models with prices ranging from $176,600 to $279,000 plus on-road costs.

An example was photographed at the Porsche Center Sydney South last weekend; Drive understands that another has been sent to a Porsche dealer in Melbourne.

While Porsche is still new to the electric car market, its first two models seem to immediately grab the attention of buyers, with sedan and wagon versions of the Taycan reportedly selling out for months.

The arrival of Porsche and other automakers into the luxury electric vehicle space is likely to make US brand Tesla look to improve the quality of their builds.

Tesla cars are renowned for having class-leading battery technology and performance, but the company sometimes struggles with uneven build quality.

However, the presence of the Porsche Taycan offers new technology, luxury and a driving experience that is claimed to be better than Tesla.
