A 6,900-mile Porsche Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo just lost nearly $100K in value before its second owner took delivery

A loaded 2024 Porsche Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo with just 6,900 miles has just resold for barely half its original sticker price, underscoring the brutal depreciation hitting high-end EVs. The lifted wagon, featuring black body cladding, roof rails, and the Off Road Design Package, sold for $117,000 via a Cars & Bids auction after an initial bid of $111,500 failed to meet reserve. Its original window sticker was $214,320, meaning it shed $97,320 in roughly two years. The Taycan started at $163,400, but this example packed roughly $50,000 in factory options—including a $3,150 chalk paint finish, $3,200 panoramic roof with variable light control, $5,810 Burmester sound system, $2,460 carbon-fiber interior trim, $2,420 Night Vision Assist, and a $5,410 Performance Package—plus a $1,650 destination charge. Under the skin, it’s a full-fat Taycan Turbo with dual electric motors producing up to 670 HP (500 kW) and 626 lb-ft (849 Nm) of torque, paired to a two-speed transmission for sharper launches. The Carfax report shows no accidents or modifications, only curb rash on the passenger-side front wheel and fresh tires installed at 3,471 miles. Despite the steep loss, $117,000 still buys a six-figure electric wagon with serious kit and practicality—provided the new owner has home charging.
