This just in: Porsche has set a ‘Ring record with a Manthey Taycan Turbo GT
Modded EV does a 6m 55.5s, is *twelve seconds faster* than last Taycan GT
Porsche has bolted on a lovely set of Manthey performance parts onto its definitely-not-a-real-turbo Taycan Turbo GT and absolutely sent it around a friendly little place called the Nürburgring.
This little adventure has resulted in a time of 6m 55.533s, beating Porsche’s last excursion with a Taycan Turbo GT – that time outfitted with only the Weissach Pack – by twelve entire seconds. That’s not a bit quicker, that’s basically a week faster. It's also nine seconds quicker than the production-spec Xiaomi SU7 Ultra, meaning the Porsche reclaims its title of fastest 'electric executive car'.
What then, does a Manthey kit add to the already kitted out Taycan Turbo GT with a Weissach Pack? A “comprehensive aerodynamic update” that takes in a new rear wing with bigger end plates, a better front diffuser, a new high performance rear diffuser with extended fins, and bigger air deflectors on the underbody.
The resulting downforce is now three times more compared to the standard car: at 124mph, it rises from a paltry 95kg to a substantial 310kg. At its 193mph full whack, it generates 740kg. Downforce for days. Or weeks, probably.
