Porsche is becoming a threat to Tesla as demand for the Taycan grows Porsche's first full-production electric vehicle (EV), the Taycan, has garnered substantial interest from prospective buyers, according to Porsche North America president and CEO Klaus Zellmer, cited by CNET.
Although Zellmer didn't offer specific figures, he did state that if every person who placed a pre-order ended up purchasing the EV, the Taycan would be sold out in its first year.

Zellmer also provided details about who was pre-ordering the Taycan, showing that Porsche has a valuable growth opportunity ahead and is a legitimate challenger to Tesla.
