Price Breakdown

The Porsche Taycan starts from $181,200 before on-road costs, while the Audi e-tron GT opens at $209,900. That makes the Porsche Taycan the more affordable entry point by $28,700.

Once you factor in stamp duty, registration, CTP insurance, and dealer delivery, expect to add roughly 8-12% on top of the RRP depending on your state. That puts estimated driveaway prices in the ballpark of $199,320 and $230,890 respectively.

Both models qualify for Fringe Benefit Tax (FBT) exemption, which is a significant advantage for salary-sacrificed novated leases. Depending on your tax bracket, this can save $5,000-$15,000+ per year compared to an equivalent ICE vehicle.
