A Porsche Taycan prototype has been spied testing on U.S. Highway 101 in California with virtually no camouflage.

The prototype was snapped by Twitter user Pineapple Trev and looks very similar to the fleet of Taycan testers we spied earlier this month. However, the German company appears to have stripped away even more of the taping used to help disguise the vehicle.

Whereas the prototypes from early this month featured tape and aerials on the roof, this Taycan makes do without them. What’s more, the shape of its roof seems more conventional than the subtle double-bubble design of other prototypes. Last, but not least, there doesn’t appear to be any body cladding on the rear fascia and are just a set of fake quad tailpipes and tape over the lights.

One obvious similarity between this prototype and others we have seen are the wheels, which have a familiar aerodynamic shape design to improve airflow and boost the vehicle’s range.

Porsche says that when the Taycan hits the market, it will do so with two electric motors delivering over 592 hp. This will allow for a 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) time of less than 3.5 seconds and 0-124 mph (0-200 km/h) in less than 12 seconds. The Taycan will also be able to travel more than 310 miles (500 km) on a single charge per the NEDC cycle.

One of the firm’s biggest challenges throughout the Taycan’s development has been ensuring that it drives and feels like a proper Porsche. Consequently, extensive work has been done at the Nurburgring and other circuits to optimize its handling.
