Porsche Taycan Turbo GT Sets New Electric Car Lap Record at Interlagos

The Porsche Taycan Turbo GT with the Weissach package has once again made headlines by setting a new lap record for electric cars at the Interlagos circuit in São Paulo. This achievement marks the fourth record set by Porsche with this electric sports car, following previous records at iconic tracks like the Nürburgring Nordschleife, Shanghai International Circuit, and WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca in California.

On February 5, 2025, Felipe Nasr, a seasoned Porsche works driver and three-time IMSA champion, blazed through the 4.3-kilometer Interlagos circuit in an impressive time of 1:42.1 minutes. Nasr’s record-breaking lap not only surpassed the previous record set by the Taycan Turbo S in 2022 but also edged out an earlier production-car lap record set by the 911 Turbo S. The challenging Interlagos circuit, known for its mix of high-speed stretches and technical sections, provided the perfect backdrop for this feat.

Nasr shared his exhilarating experience behind the wheel of the Taycan Turbo GT, emphasizing the car’s acceleration, torque, and overall performance. The precision of the steering, stability under braking, and exceptional grip of the Taycan Turbo GT left a lasting impression on the accomplished driver. Peter Vogel, CEO of Porsche Brazil, highlighted the car’s outstanding performance and the significance of setting a new record to showcase the Taycan Turbo GT’s capabilities as it prepares to debut in the Brazilian market.

The Autodrome José Carlos Pace, also known as Interlagos, holds a special place in motorsport history as the venue where Brazilian racing legend Ayrton Senna achieved notable successes in the early 1990s. The Taycan Turbo GT’s record-breaking run at Interlagos further solidifies its motorsport pedigree, having served as the Formula E safety car since May 2024, making it the most potent safety car in an FIA World Championship.

This achievement at Interlagos adds to a series of records set by the Taycan Turbo GT on different continents. Porsche development driver Lars Kern set a blistering lap time at the Shanghai International Circuit, followed by a record-breaking performance at the WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca in California. The Taycan Turbo GT and Taycan Turbo GT with Weissach package boast advanced technologies, including a more powerful pulse inverter, lightweight construction, and Porsche Active Ride suspension for enhanced track performance.

With a focus on intelligent design and track optimization, the Taycan Turbo GT lineup represents the pinnacle of Porsche’s electric sports sedans. These models deliver exceptional power output, dynamic handling, and cutting-edge features like Attack Mode for temporary power boosts. The Taycan Turbo GT’s success on the track underscores Porsche’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of electric performance and redefining what is possible in the world of electric sports cars.
