2020-2024 Porsche Taycan Cargo Tray: Fitment, Part Numbers, and Buying Used
This guide clarifies the critical differences between cargo trays for the Taycan Sedan, Cross Turismo, and front trunk (frunk), ensuring you buy the right part.
- There are three different, non-interchangeable cargo trays: one for the front trunk (frunk), one for the rear of the Sedan, and one for the rear of the Cross/Sport Turismo.
- Verify the OEM part number before buying a used tray to ensure it fits your specific model and location.
- The primary failure mode is physical damage like cracks or warping, which compromises the tray's ability to contain spills.
- Installation is a simple drop-in process with a difficulty of 1 out of 5, requiring no tools.
Part Numbers & Variant Differences
One of the most critical aspects of buying a cargo tray for a 2020-2024 Porsche Taycan is understanding that there are three distinct versions that are not interchangeable. The shape and size of the cargo areas differ significantly between the body styles and locations.
Warning: A cargo tray for a Taycan Sedan will not fit a Cross Turismo or Sport Turismo, and vice-versa. The front trunk (frunk) liner is also a unique part that fits all models but is different from any of the rear trays.
| Application | Common OEM Part Numbers | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Front Trunk (Frunk) | 9J104400000 | Fits all Taycan models (Sedan, Cross Turismo, Sport Turismo). Designed to drop into the front luggage compartment. |
| Rear Cargo Area (Sedan) | 9J104400001 | Specifically shaped for the Taycan Sedan's trunk. It has a more triangular shape to match the sedan's rear profile. |
| Rear Cargo Area (Cross Turismo & Sport Turismo) | 9J104400002 | Designed for the larger, more rectangular cargo area of the wagon-style Cross Turismo and Sport Turismo models. These models offer significantly more cargo volume and a wider hatch opening. |
The other part numbers provided in the initial data, 9J1805075 and 9J1805075A, appear to refer to the structural front luggage compartment tub or frame itself, not the removable protective liner.
Symptoms of a Failing Cargo Tray
Since a cargo tray is a simple, non-mechanical part, "failure" relates to physical damage that compromises its ability to protect the vehicle's carpet.
- Cracks or Splits: Typically occur at the corners or along the raised lip from being bent or having heavy objects dropped on it. A crack defeats the purpose of the tray, as liquids can leak through to the carpet below.
- Warping or Curling: The tray no longer sits flat in the cargo area. This can be caused by prolonged exposure to extreme heat or improper storage. A warped tray is an annoyance and can allow dirt and debris to get underneath it. Some owners of other Porsche models have noted warping from heat.
- Stains and Chemical Damage: Harsh chemicals or solvents can discolor or break down the plastic, making it brittle. This indicates a past spill and may compromise the tray's integrity.
- Excessive Slipperiness: The OEM Porsche trays are made of a hard, somewhat slippery plastic. While this is normal, a heavily worn tray may lose its surface texture, causing cargo to slide around even more.
Buying a Used Cargo Tray: What to Check
A used OEM cargo tray is an excellent value, but a thorough inspection is key. Here’s what to look for:
- Verify the Part Number: This is the most important step. Check the number molded into the tray and confirm it matches the application you need (Frunk, Sedan Rear, or Cross/Sport Turismo Rear). Do not rely on a seller's description alone.
- Inspect for Cracks: Carefully flex the tray, especially around the corners and the perimeter lip. Even a small hairline crack can allow liquid to seep through.
- Check for Flatness: Lay the tray on a flat surface. It should sit flush with no significant curling or warping at the edges. A slightly misshapen tray from shipping can often be corrected by leaving it in the sun for a while, but a permanently warped one should be avoided.
- Examine for Stains or Pitting: Look for any deep stains, discoloration, or pitting on the surface. This could be a sign of a past chemical spill that may have weakened the plastic.
- Assess the Texture: Ensure the surface isn't worn completely smooth. The original texture helps provide some grip for your cargo.
Pro Tip: Many owners find the OEM Porsche cargo liner to be made of a hard, slick plastic, which allows items to slide easily. If you carry a lot of loose items, you may want to supplement the tray with a cargo net or organizer.
🎬 Watch: How to organize your Taycan's trunk space.Known Issues, Recalls, or TSBs
There are no recalls or Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) issued by Porsche or the NHTSA specifically for the cargo tray itself, as it is a simple accessory. Broader vehicle recalls for the Taycan have focused on issues like the high-voltage battery, software, and rearview cameras, none of which are related to the cargo tray.
However, owners of the Taycan Sport Turismo have reported issues with the power tailgate failing to open, sometimes due to water ingress around the seal, which could potentially affect the cargo area. This is a vehicle issue, not a fault of the tray, but it's a relevant concern for anyone accessing the rear cargo space frequently.
Cost Comparison
Prices can vary based on the specific tray (Front, Rear Sedan, Rear Turismo) and the vendor.
| Part Type | Estimated Price Range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| New OEM | $170 - $250 | Available from Porsche dealers or online OEM parts suppliers. Prices for the rear liners are typically higher than the front. |
| New Aftermarket | $50 - $170 | Brands like WeatherTech and others offer high-quality alternatives. Some owners prefer the more rubbery, less slippery material of aftermarket options. |
| Used OEM | $75 - $150 | Offers a good balance of OEM fit and finish at a lower cost. Prices depend on condition. |
Installation
Installing a cargo tray is extremely simple and requires no tools.
- Difficulty: 1 out of 5
- Estimated Time: Less than 5 minutes
- Procedure: Simply clean the carpeted surface of the trunk or frunk, then place the tray into the compartment, ensuring it sits flat and the edges are aligned with the contours of the space. Some owners have noted the OEM frunk liner can be a tight fit.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Will a cargo tray from a Taycan Sedan fit my Cross Turismo?
No, it will not fit correctly. The Taycan Sedan has a smaller, more triangular trunk, while the Cross Turismo has a larger, more rectangular cargo area with a hatchback. You must buy the specific liner for your body style (Sedan vs. Cross/Sport Turismo) to ensure proper fit and protection.
Is the front trunk (frunk) liner the same for all Taycan models?
Yes, the front trunk liner (part number 9J104400000) is the same across all Taycan variants from 2020-2024, including the Sedan, 4S, GTS, Turbo, Cross Turismo, and Sport Turismo.
Is the OEM Porsche cargo tray better than an aftermarket one?
It depends on your preference. The OEM tray guarantees a perfect fit and features the Porsche logo. However, some owners find the hard plastic material to be too slippery. Aftermarket brands like WeatherTech may offer a more rubberized, grippier surface, sometimes at a lower price.
How do I clean the cargo tray?
The OEM cargo tray is waterproof and washable. You can easily remove it from the car, wash it with mild soap and water, and then dry it completely before reinstalling. Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners or chemicals that could damage the plastic.
