This 24k-Mile 2020 Porsche Taycan Turbo S Is Chasing Bids on Hagerty MarketplaceA 24,100-mile 2020 Porsche Taycan Turbo S in Carrara White Metallic is chasing bids on Hagerty Marketplace, where the Seattle, Washington sedan has pulled seven bids to $20,000 with the auction scheduled to close Friday, August 28 at 2:30 p.m. EDT. The listing, photos, and documentation are all courtesy of Hagerty Marketplace, and with 111 images and more than 3,500 views logged already, this one is getting attention for reasons that have very little to do with horsepower.The Car That Rewrote Porsche's RulebookThe Taycan Turbo S was not a compliance car or a science project. It was Porsche's first purpose-built EV and, in top specification, one of the fastest-accelerating four-doors ever sold. Overboost with Launch Control engaged unlocks 750 horsepower, good for a claimed 0-60 sprint of 2.6 seconds through permanent all-wheel drive and a two-speed rear transaxle - a piece of engineering nobody else in the segment bothered with. The 800-volt architecture that underpins it allowed charging speeds no rival could match at launch, and it is the same basic thinking that has since trickled through the rest of the industry.When the Taycan debuted with a six-figure sticker, it was framed as the moment Porsche proved electrification and driver engagement were not mutually exclusive. Six years on, the company's own numbers show how central the platform has become - Porsche's most recent delivery figures show electrified models taking an ever-larger share of the mix.What's In This OneThis example wears Carrara White Metallic over black leather and carries the high-gloss black exterior package with the carbon fiber elements deleted. The options list is deep: Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control Sport, the Burmester 3D High-End Surround Sound System, a fixed panoramic glass roof, four-zone climate control, Porsche InnoDrive with adaptive cruise, Lane Change Assist, a surround-view camera system, on-board 150-kW DC fast charging, ventilated and heated front seats, and a heated steering wheel. Per the seller, the 2020 Turbo S came standard with the larger 93.4-kWh Performance Battery Plus pack, so there is no guesswork on which battery is fitted.AdvertisementAdvertisementService history is short but current. A May 2025 visit to Porsche Bellevue covered a brake fluid flush, replacement front brake hoses, new front wiper blades, and a fresh battery in the anti-theft remote. A clean CARFAX report and a clean Washington title accompany the car, along with the owner's manuals.The seller is candid about the flaws, which is the part serious bidders should read twice. There is a paint bubble on the right rear fender, wheel rim damage, and some wear on the upholstery. None of that is disqualifying on a car with this mileage, but it is the kind of detail that separates a strong result from a soft one - and it is exactly what we mean when we talk about how car values actually get determined.The listing also notes that the car is being offered on behalf of the current owner's estate. The seller's own description states the Taycan "was purchased from the original owner for $170,000," and describes a car that was garaged, dealer-maintained, and driven sparingly by an enthusiast who used it to surprise friends with a ride.What the Hagerty Valuation Tools Say About Taycan MoneyThis is where the story gets interesting. Run a 2020 Taycan Turbo S through Hagerty Valuation Tools and the past-sales database paints a clear picture of a car in freefall - and then a car finding its floor.AdvertisementAdvertisement2020 Taycan Turbo S, 11,000 miles, Volcano Grey Metallic - $84,525 (February 2025)2020 Taycan Turbo S, 13,000 miles, Carrara White Metallic - $78,750 (June 2025)2022 Taycan Turbo S, 14,000 miles, Mamba Green Metallic - $101,325 (January 2025)Read those three results together and the shape of the market becomes obvious. A first-year Turbo S with roughly half this car's mileage traded in the high $70,000s to mid-$80,000s through 2025, while a two-year-newer example commanded a six-figure premium. That is a car that shed well over half its original value inside five years - a depreciation curve steeper than almost anything Porsche has ever built, and one driven less by the car itself than by the pace of battery and charging development around it.The Taycan's presence in the Hagerty Valuation Tools database at all is worth pausing on. Cars this new normally sit outside collector-value tracking entirely, but landmark models get logged early because their long-term arc matters. The 918 Spyder taught that lesson. The Taycan Turbo S - the first electric Porsche, the first 800-volt production car, the first EV with a two-speed gearbox - is being tracked for the same reason.Where This One LandsAt $20,000 with nine days to run, the current high bid sits far below every recorded Turbo S result in the Hagerty database. That gap should close substantially before the hammer falls; auctions like this do most of their work in the final hours. But the two variables that will decide the final number are the 24,100-mile odometer reading - roughly double the comparable sales above - and those disclosed cosmetic flaws.AdvertisementAdvertisementFor a buyer who wants 750 horsepower, a Burmester system, and a panoramic roof without writing a $170,000 check, the math here is compelling in a way it simply was not three years ago. The counterargument is the one every used-EV shopper has to weigh: battery health, out-of-warranty repair costs, and a technology curve that has not stopped moving. Porsche has kept the platform culturally alive in the meantime, going as far as applying classic racing liveries to the Taycan to tie it back to the company's motorsport history.Hagerty Marketplace has been running a strong Porsche book lately - a one-owner 1965 Porsche 356SC Coupe recently closed there well under Price Guide money, and the platform's rotating consignments are worth a look if you want the broader picture of what's crossing the block. Seeing a first-year Taycan Turbo S sitting alongside air-cooled 911s and prewar iron is a reminder of how fast the definition of a collectible Porsche is changing.The auction runs through Friday, August 28 at 2:30 p.m. EDT on Hagerty Marketplace.Source and images: Hagerty MarketplaceAdvertisementAdvertisement⚡️ Read the full article on MotoriousSign up for the Motorious Newsletter.
