Porsche has officially unveiled new models of its electric Taycan sedan that the automaker dubbed its "most powerful" yet.
The new models – the four-seat Taycan Turbo GT and its two-seater sister Taycan Turbo GT with Weissach package – will both become available to consumers "this spring," the company said.
The Taycan Turbo GT, with Weissach package, features a top speed of 190 mph and can go from zero to 62 mph in just 2.2 seconds, according to Porsche.
In February, the car became the "fastest electric series-production car" at the Weathertech Raceway Laguna Seca after a development driver notched a 1:27.87-minute lap time, it said. It also recently became a record-setter at the Nurburgring track in Germany.

The Taycan Turbo GT is also quick, capable of accelerating from zero to 60 mph in 2.3 seconds, per Porsche. It can reach a maximum speed of 180 mph.
"They [Porsche engineers] have already done a great job with the recently updated existing Taycan models," said Ken Giek, model line vice president, in a statement. "But our new GT cars yet again clearly raise the bar even higher in terms of driving dynamics."
The now-flagship Turbo GT models come with an "attack mode" that can give the cars extra power for a short amount of time, according to Porsche. They have up to 1,092 horsepower.
