Porsche Taycan Sets Nurburgring Lap Record

Porsche is on a streak to prove that the Taycan has performance chops. The record they are claiming (4 door; all-electric sports car) sounds like a small niche, but they do own that niche at the moment, so we’ll let them have it. Regardless, they were nice enough to provide video of the hot lap, which is always appreciated here at the ElectricMitten. Enjoy!

Porsche sets new standards for four-door, all-electric sports cars on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife. Consequently, test driver Lars Kern conquered the legendary track, famously known as the Green Hell, in seven minutes and 42 seconds. The lap time was set over the 20.6-kilometre course that’s usually used for record attempts. During the attempt, Lars Kern drove a pre-series Taycan.
