Will it be released in 2027? Largest Porsche electric SUV built on PPE platform
There was information about the electric SUV that Porsche is currently preparing, so I took a look.
This SUV will be officially announced by Porsche in July 2022It has been announced that it will add a new luxury full electric SUV to its lineup.thing.
It seems that this electric vehicle SUV is currently called "K1" in Porsche, and its total length is over 5 meters, like a sedan, like a crossover ... But anyway, it's a sporty "Porsche" It will be a 7-seater SUV.
Since this K1 shares the same production line (Leipzig factory) as the 2024 EV Macan built on the Volkswagen Group's PPE (Premium Platform Electric) architecture, it is also expected to be equipped with PPE.
This PPE architecture is also the basis for the Audi A6 e-tron, Q6 e-tron, Porsche Boxster & Cayenne, and EV Cayenne.
The seven-seater EV Porsche SUV will be added to Porsche's model list around 2027, after 2026 when these other models will already be on sale.

It is an insider of Porsche Zuffenhausen headquarters. So who are you? (laughs)
The K1 will feature Porsche's latest battery, electric motor and charging technology, according to the Porsche source, and will cost more than $180,000. It would be.
It seems to be a fairly expensive Porsche, but it is likely that it will be the top model with the name "Turbo S" like the Taycan.
What is the Porsche 7-seater electric car SUV K1?
Of course, Porsche hasn't released any official details yet, but rumors nonetheless suggest that the K1 will look something like this:
- short bonnet
- steep windshield
- Sportier liftback style roof
- Equipped with adaptive air suspension
- To demonstrate off-road ability by raising the vehicle height
- Battery over 100kW
- The cruising range may be more than 400 miles (about 643 km)
Does liftback style mean hatchback?
Somehow it looks like an Audi Sportback style, but it looks like it's going to be bigger.
No mention of specific battery technology or electric motors yet.
Nevertheless, the K1 is believed to be equipped with the latest version of the PPE platform, which could be the latest to incorporate developments presented as the 'Mission R Engineering Concept' at the 2021 Munich Motor Show. , a story with.
The latest PPE is the best in the industry at the moment, allowing for even faster charging, oil cooling to cool the electric motor, and a 920 volt electrical system.
Other chassis tech includes electronically controlled four-wheel steering that provides up to five degrees of turning for the rear wheels, said to improve maneuverability at low speeds around town and improve agility at high speeds. I'm here.
The technology works in combination with an electronic differential that provides a torque vectoring effect between the rear wheels.
… and the information has been leaked little by little (?), but the announcement is still a little ahead, so I would like to look forward to it.
I'm curious as to what the name of this model, which is now called K1 in-house, will be when it's announced!
By the way, Porsche CEO Oliver Blume describes this new SUV as "a very sporting interpretation of an SUV".
I thought it would be nice to have a 7-seater in my home with a family of 5, but if it was an electric car (= heavy) and it was even bigger, it would be impossible to put it in a mechanical car in Tokyo. , The parking lot problem seems to be serious ~ It's already annoying from now ^ ^
