Electric vehicles struggled in 2025. With the elimination of federal tax incentives for new and used electric vehicles, sales have suffered. When you add in the massive depreciation that EVs are experiencing, some used cars don’t sell for much. This is reported by the credit information agency Experian, the average five-year depreciation rate for vehicles is 45%. However, does that rate apply to Porsche?
The Taycan was Porsche’s first fully electric sports car, and the Cross Turismo variant was a shooting-brake, wagon-like version with much more functionality thanks to an additional 15.7 cubic meters of cargo space and an extra 20 millimeters of ride height. According to Kelly Blue book (KBB) As of January 2026, the Taycan Cross Turismo 4 has a fair purchase price of $61,000. When the car was new in 2021, it had a starting price of $92,250, meaning it lost $31,250 in value – or almost 34%. If you look at the 4S variant, the starting price was $111,650, and a fair KBB price today would be $65,500. That’s a loss of 41.3%, or $46,150. As you can see, both models have beaten the average depreciation curve.
Even though it’s an electric car, Porsche has carried over its Turbo badging to the Taycan. The Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo had a starting price of $154,850, and the more outrageous Turbo S started at $188,950. KBB isn’t currently listing a fair price for these two models, but if you manage to find one in the wild, it can still fetch a six-figure price.
The Cross Turismo is the best turismo
This limited availability has also ensured that the regular Taycan has retained its value. As recorded by KBBThe sedan version started at $81,250 in 2021 and has a fair value of $49,600. That means it lost almost 39% of its total value; it depreciates slightly faster than the Cross Turismo. The 4S version is slightly more comparable to the Cross Turismo’s and loses 42.2% of its value. While depreciation can hit some cars hard, Porsche’s magic touch ensured the Taycan didn’t lose too much of its value, even with its electric drive. The Cross Turismo could potentially even be the perfect choice for a household, as long as you install a home charger to avoid any problems.
