    Can we just take a second to admire that Porsche thinks so little of their customers’ intelligence that they have Turbo badging on an EV?

      Turbo badging on an EV?

      “Turbo” has been a synonym for ‘fast’ for quite awhile, especially in the tech-space. The CPU in my laptop has a turbo-boost mode that increases clockspeeds.

      “Turbo” in Porsche-speak just means it’s the really fast version.
