Frequently asked questions
Is the Audi RS e-tron GT worth the extra £11,750 over the Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo?
The Audi RS e-tron GT costs £11,750 more than the Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo. For that premium it adds 35 kW more power and a 1.0s quicker 0-62mph time. The Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo is not just cheaper - it also offers 52 miles more WLTP range and 50 kW faster peak rapid charging. On EVcarsguide's combined category scores, the Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo comes out ahead overall.
Which is cheaper to own over 5 years, the Audi RS e-tron GT or the Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo?
The Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo is £11,750 cheaper to buy. Running costs are almost identical - about £208 a year either way, at 8,000 miles on an off-peak home tariff. Add 5 years of charging and the Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo comes out roughly £11,790 cheaper overall. These figures cover list price and home charging only - insurance, servicing, tyres and depreciation will move the real total.
What are the Audi RS e-tron GT and Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo like on a long motorway trip?
EVcarsguide estimates a real-world motorway range of about 246 miles for the Audi RS e-tron GT and 290 miles for the Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo - both below their WLTP figures, because sustained high speed is the hardest case for an EV. The Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo goes roughly 43 miles further between charging stops. Both rapid-charge to 80% in a similar time, around 18-18 minutes.
Which is easier to park and drive in town, the Audi RS e-tron GT or the Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo?
The two are within 2 mm on width, so neither is meaningfully easier to thread into a tight space. In a standard 2,400 mm bay that leaves about 436 mm of total clearance for the Audi RS e-tron GT and about 434 mm of total clearance for the Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo.
Which battery will hold up better as a used buy, the Audi RS e-tron GT or the Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo?
Over a 8-year ownership window EVcarsguide's degradation model projects roughly 84% battery health for the Audi RS e-tron GT and 84% for the Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo. That is close enough that capacity loss should not decide between them. Both use NMC-type cells, so for daily use keep the charge limit near 80% to slow degradation. Both batteries carry a 8-year manufacturer warranty.
