A Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo (from $208,000 before extras and on-road fees) lost control and slammed into a parked car, which happened to be another Porsche, in Madrid, Spain.
The force of the hit was strong enough to send the Porsche Macan (starting at $89,300 before extras and on-road charges) through a brick wall and lodge the black electric wagon beneath it.
The 360kW/650Nm Taycan 4S can accelerate from 0-100km/h in 4.1 seconds, so we can only presume the driver was taken aback by the car's performance.
According to reports on Twitter by Madrid Emergency Services, the female driver of the Taycan was shocked but unharmed, and the Macan was unoccupied at the time. As a precaution, the driver was taken to the hospital.

While the accident itself is strange, it is the recovery that we found most intriguing.
A crane was used to lift the Macan, allowing the Taycan to back out from underneath on its own.
While the damage appears to be significant, it does not appear to be fatal, however just moving by its own power is no guarantee that a touch of 'paint-and-panel' would get the black wagon back on the road.
