2022 Porsche Taycan vs. 2022 BMW i4

The 2022 Porsche Taycan offers the kind of Porsche performance, luxury, and aesthetics you've come to expect. With a luxurious interior, futuristic styling, and numerous standard features, it has a lower starting price than some Audi and Tesla models. It goes another step, however, for buyers by qualifying for the federal EV tax credit.

Known for delivering vehicles with craftsmanship and unrivaled performance, BMW is very proud of their first all-electric vehicle - the i4. It offers a fully electronic engine, the latest technology, spacious interior, optimal handling, and quality performance.

Design & Style

The Taycan's exterior style strikes the perfect balance between a thoroughly modern look and traditional Porsche design. To practically any color you could want, the exterior paint job is also customizable. For a sporty, aggressive look, change the wheel design as you wish, too. Exactly what you would expect from a high performance, high tech luxury sedan is evident when it comes to the interior. The overall finish and fit are the envy of the industry and the materials are top-notch. With a curved digital driver display, it is decidedly modern. A definite air of Porsche tradition is evident in the cockpit.

In the case of the 2022 BMW i4, the interior is unmistakably luxurious, comfortable, and spacious. Folding rear seats and lots of legroom come together with premium upholstery and trims. Access to the trunk is convenient and easy thanks to the hatch style rear lift gate.

Technology & Safety

Porsche's first all-electric model, the 2022 Porsche Taycan, has a list of standard features that could be considered impressively generous, going above and beyond the typical high-tech driver assists found in many of today's automobiles. For the vehicle's information and entertainment center, natural language voice commands can be used. For slightly faster battery charging, a new temperature management system proves beneficial.

The BMW i4 helps the driver stay prepared and secure with car safety features like automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, lane keeping assistance, lane departure warning, reversing assist camera, park distance control, stop and go technology-equipped adaptive cruise control, and more.

Performance

To add a boost of power, launch control comes standard on the 2022 Porsche Taycan. You're getting a high tech, upscale luxury car with athletic handling and quick acceleration - particularly for a sedan this size. An impressive 590 hp is available on the GTS. For its active suspension management and adaptive air suspension, the GTS has sportier tuning.

The BMW i4 boasts rapid acceleration and two potent powertrains. The handling is spirited, and the ride is comfortable with decent electric range. With power to spare, the vehicle offers brisk acceleration as it bolts off the line, which is available even at higher speeds. For impressive special effects (a throaty, artificial purr) shift your drive mode from "comfort" to "sport".

The Bottom Line

The 2022 Porsche Taycan evokes intense emotion with an electric driving experience rivaled by none. While the BMW i4 is impressive, to say the least, the Taycan is simply the purest expression of electric sports cars. It is instantly recognizable, timeless, and striking.
