This 2024 Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo sold after a Cars &amp; Bids auction for $117,000 with just 6,900 miles (11,104 km) on the odometer. Its original window sticker was $214,320. That\u2019s a $97,320 gap in roughly two years, and it changes the math dramatically for whoever takes the keys next.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/carsandbids.com\/auctions\/rbG0ynk9\/2024-porsche-taycan-turbo-cross-turismo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The auction<\/a> itself topped out at $111,500, but didn\u2019t meet reserve. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/carsbids\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"3606\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Cars &amp; Bids<\/a> later listed the car as \u201cSold After\u201d to the high bidder for $117,000. That\u2019s still only about 54.6 percent of the original MSRP. Of course, MSRP isn\u2019t necessarily what the first owner paid, so we can\u2019t say with certainty that someone personally ate every dollar of that loss or that they didn\u2019t pay a markup and eat an even larger loss. Still, the sticker gives us a useful look at just how quickly a loaded, high-end EV can shed value.<\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazy \" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arrow.png\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"\/><br \/>\n                <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazy \" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arrow.png\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This wasn\u2019t a basic (if that even exists) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/porsche-taycan\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"2377\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Taycan<\/a>, either. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2021\/05\/can-you-actually-go-off-roading-in-the-porsche-taycan-turbo-s-cross-turismo\/\" type=\"post\" id=\"2236266\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Turbo Cross Turismo<\/a> started at $163,400, but this one carried roughly $50,000 in factory options before the $1,650 destination charge. Chalk paint alone added $3,150, while the panoramic roof with variable light control cost $3,200. Other pricey extras included a $5,810 Burmester sound system, $2,460 in carbon-fiber interior trim, $2,420 Night Vision Assist, and a $5,410 Performance Package.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2026\/01\/driving-this-lucid-6500-miles-cost-the-first-owner-almost-50000\/\" type=\"post\" id=\"3355017\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Lucid Owner Gets A $50,000 Lesson On Depreciation<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazy \" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arrow.png\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"\/><br \/>\n                <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazy \" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arrow.png\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s also a very particular kind of Porsche. The lifted wagon has black body cladding, roof rails, and the Off Road Design Package, but it still packs dual electric motors making up to 670 hp (500 kW) and 626 lb-ft (849 Nm) of torque. It\u2019s one of the few electric cars that uses a two-speed transmission for quicker launches.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Carfax report is clean, too. The listing notes no modifications, and the only disclosed flaw is curb rash on the passenger-side front wheel. It also received new tires at 3,471 miles (5,586 km). At $117,000, this is still a six-figure wagon with pricey upgrades and tons of practicality. So long as the new owner can charge at home, that is.<\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazy \" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arrow.png\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"\/><br \/>\n                <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazy \" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arrow.png\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Photos: Cars&amp;Bids<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nearly $50,000 in options couldn\u2019t stop this Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo from taking a huge depreciation hit A&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":72122,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21181],"tags":[22859,26973,8406,21299,2620],"class_list":["post-72121","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-porsche","tag-auction","tag-carsbids","tag-porsche","tag-porsche-taycan","tag-prices"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/72121","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=72121"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/72121\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/72122"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=72121"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=72121"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=72121"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
