Porsche is fond of collaborating with creative artists who help bring the bests out of its model lineup. This time, the German automaker teamed up with Jennie Kim, known as Jennie Ruby Jane or simply Jennie, to create her personalized Taycan.

Jennie is a 26-year-old artist who is a member of the K-pop girl group Blackpink, one of the most influential artists in the world right now. She chose the Taycan 4S Cross Turismo for the project, which happens to be her dream car. Working closely with the K-pop superstar is the brand’s Sonderwunsch program.

“Jenny had very specific images of her dream Porsche. The collaboration was accordingly intense and inspiring,” said Porsche Vice President Individualization and Classic Alexander Fabig. “Working together with international customers on these special projects is particularly exciting and enriching.”

The custom Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo

The Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo is the all-electric model’s shooting brake or wagon version. It comes with a metallic black finish with a set of 21-inch exclusive design rims in Meissenblue. To make the vehicle her own, the vehicle has custom “Jennie Ruby Jane” lettering in a cloud on the b-pillar and “NiNi” on the rear doors.

Inside, the black and Meissenblue motif continues, which provides a sky-like appeal. Well, Jennie themed the design with her love for the sky and clouds, which she got from traveling around the world. The custom “Jennie Ruby Jane” cloud design is also found on the seat headrests and center console.

Jennie's imagination of her Taycan Cross

Although not mentioned, the custom Taycan 4S Cross Turismo’s electrified powertrain should be untouched. This means that the electric motors still make 563 horsepower and 650 Nm of torque, while the electric vehicle (EV) range can reach up to 346 km.

“Being able to collaborate so intensively on my own personal Porsche was an amazing experience,” said Jennie. “I’m especially proud of having designed the visualization of the clouds. I spend a lot of time traveling around the world – the sky and clouds are my traveling companions and a beautiful symbol of these unique experiences.”

As said earlier, the automaker loves teaming up with creative minds. One of the latest collaborations of the brand is with sneaker designer and influencer Sean Wotherspoon. The wagon version of the Taycan was also the canvas for the project, which produced a colorful EV with lively color blocking.
