2023 Taycan Turbo Interior
So what's the point of driving a futuristic car if it doesn't look and feel like one in the cabin too? Although not as extreme as in a Tesla, the Taycan Turbo is impressively clean in its interior design, with a massive 16.8-inch curved and touch-responsive digital driver info display. More screens dominate the dash and center console, while the supportive and comfortable seats we've come to know are a welcome throwback to Porsche quality. As always, the fit and finish are exemplary, and space is good, although the rear is not as accommodating as in a Panamera. Heated seats are standard front and rear, and other comfort features are available as part of the extensive options list, another reminder that you're in a Porsche.

Seating and Interior Space
The Taycan Turbo is a four-seater, or more specifically, a 2+2. The front seats feature 14-way power-adjustment as standard, with the Turbo S gaining the optional 18-way adaptive sport seats as standard. Comfort and support are on offer in equal measure, and customizing the driving position to your preference is a simple task. Visibility all around is great, but shorter individuals may need to adjust the seat to a lofty setting to spot the front wings from behind the wheel. Headroom and legroom in front are generous, but six-footers may become grouchy after extended periods of time spent in the back. Fortunately, ingress and egress are decent, with large doors, although taller individuals may have to contort to get in under the low roof. If you want maximum space, a bench seat can be optioned for the rear, increasing seating capacity to five.

Interior Colors and Materials
Leather upholstery is standard on the Taycan Turbo, with Black, Slate Grey, and Blackberry as the no-cost options. Black/Limestone Beige, Black/Bordeaux Red, Blackberry/Slate Grey, and Black/Chalk are also available for $570 each, while Olea Club leather comes in Basalt Black for $2,450, or Truffle Brown for the same price. Basalt Black contrasted by Atacama Beige costs $3,010, as does Basalt Black/Meranti brown. You can opt for Race-Tex, a leather-free upholstery option that comes in Black, Slate Grey, or Graphite Blue at no charge, with a Black and Slate Grey two-tone finish at $570 or Graphite Blue/Slate Grey for the same price. As usual, various wood, carbon fiber, and aluminum finishes are available for the trims, but these can be pretty pricey. Carbon interior trim adds $2,460 to your cost, while Paldao wood is two grand. On the Turbo S, many options are cheaper though or don't carry an extra cost; for example, Paldao wood costs nothing more on the Turbo S.
2023 Taycan Turbo Trunk and Cargo Space
The Taycan Turbo doesn't have a traditional motor, and therefore has extra space for cargo, with a frunk at the front of the car offering 2.9 cubic feet of volume. At the rear, the conventional trunk offers 12.9 cubes, although this is only really enough for some carry-on luggage for three to four individuals.
In the cabin, the center armrest offers a pair of cupholders at the front and another two at the rear. You also get an average center console bin in the front and a tray at the rear, along with small door pockets and a glovebox that offers a little extra space.

2023 Taycan Turbo Infotainment and Features
Features
As standard, the Taycan Turbo offers numerous features, including adaptive air suspension (with a Smartlift function), a deployable rear spoiler, heated mirrors and heated seats, rain-sensing wipers, automatic adaptive LED Matrix headlights, ambient lighting, dual-zone climate control, thermally insulated glass, and wireless charging. You also get forward-collision warning with autonomous emergency braking, lane-keep assist, traffic-sign recognition, cruise control, parking sensors, a rearview camera, keyless entry, remote access, and a 16.8-inch curved digital driver display. 18-way adaptive seats, a panoramic glass roof, a surround-view camera, lane-change assist, and ventilated front seats are also available. Other options include adaptive cruise control, a night vision camera, massaging front seats, a heated steering wheel, quad-zone climate control, a head-up display, and rear-axle steering.
Infotainment
Screens galore fill the cabin of a fully-specced Taycan Turbo. As standard, you get a 10.9-inch touchscreen for infotainment with an 8.4-inch screen in the center console for accessing climate control and the onboard navigation system, among other functions. Furthermore, you can have another 10.9-inch touchscreen ahead of the passenger, allowing that individual to access the nav and infotainment systems. A 5.9-inch rear-seat touch display is also available for climate control and other functions. The screens all work well, respond quickly, and are easy to understand, but a volume knob or something else a little more analog would be welcome.
The infotainment interface has been redesigned for 2023 with a colorful new look and quicker operation. Standard features include wireless Apple CarPlay, and for the first time, Android Auto is also wireless this year and no longer requires you to connect via a USB cable as it did before. Other features include Bluetooth, four USB-C ports, real-time traffic updates, SiriusXM satellite radio, HD Radio, and a Bose 14-speaker sound system which can be upgraded to a Burmester 21-speaker audio setup. Additional functionality added this year include the ability of the system to search for charging stations filtered according to their charging speed.
