"With the new Manthey Kit, we are offering a unique upgrade for the Taycan Turbo GT. The small but impactful project team from Manthey and Porsche has succeeded in transferring the Manthey DNA into a kit for electric vehicles. This effort has culminated in an impressive new Nordschleife record," says Kevin Giek, Head of the Taycan model line.
With the Manthey Kit, Porsche development driver Lars Kern has set a lap record for electric executive cars on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife at the wheel of a Taycan Turbo GT with Weissach Package, with a time of 6:55.533 minutes. Extensive aerodynamic measures increase downforce by more than three times compared to the standard model. The suspension and drive system have also been optimised: at 600 kW, the power output is 20 kW higher than the standard model. The ten-second power boost known as Attack Mode¹ now delivers up to 130 kW.
