The new Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid reveals itself as the most powerful ever created

The new Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid, available in both SUV and Coupé body styles, is based on the recent update of the third generation of the popular German SUV, presented earlier this year.

In this case, the renewal of the most performance-oriented variants comes with an important milestone: thanks to its 739 hp of combined power, the new Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid becomes the most powerful Cayenne of all time.

Compared to its predecessor, the Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid, the German car improves in all aspects, both in terms of performance and efficiency. Additionally, the Coupé body can incorporate the "GT pack" that elevates the sporty qualities to another level.

Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid: new dimension

The new top-of-the-line Porsche Cayenne and Porsche Cayenne Coupé come with plug-in hybrid technology, as was the case with their latest predecessors. The power and torque figures, the battery, the charging... have been optimized in this renewal.

The gasoline part is once again handled by the powerful 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, which now develops 599 hp (+49 hp); the electric motor, for its part, reaches 176 hp (+40 hp). The combined figure is 739 hp and 950 Nm of torque, which represents an increase of 59 hp and 50 Nm. Thus, the 0-100 km/h acceleration is now rated at 3.7 seconds and the top speed reaches 295 km/h.

Regarding the high-voltage battery, it is also larger: 25.9 kWh (compared to the previous 14.1 kWh), translating into an electric WLTP range of 82 kilometers in the city, according to the German brand. The new 11 kW onboard charger shortens charging times, which could be, in the best case, 2 and a half hours in total.

The dynamics have also been specially addressed in the new Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid. Standard equipment includes the new adaptive air suspension, with two chambers and two valves to separately adjust the compression and extension phases, thus improving handling and also reducing body pitch and roll.

Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus is also included as standard, and optionally, Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control and rear axle steering to further enhance road behavior.

Aesthetically, the new Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid features specific air intakes at the front, larger, glossy black deflectors, new trims in the wheel arches and bumpers, polished stainless steel dual exhaust outlets, red brake calipers...

Inside, we find aluminum inserts and specific trims, a heated GT sports steering wheel, adjustable leather sports seats in 18 positions, as well as all the updates we already know from the latest Cayenne refresh, such as the curved digital instrument cluster.

The Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid Coupé, also with GT pack

To elevate the sporty dimension of the Coupé body in the new Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid, Porsche has prepared a specific "GT pack" that takes some attributes from the Cayenne Turbo T and features specific adjustments.

The body sits 10 mm lower, the front axle drop has also changed by -0.58 degrees, high-performance ceramic brakes are standard, and the wheels are wider. Optionally, the driver can choose high-performance tires for the standard 22-inch GT Design wheels, the PDCC system, and rear axle steering.

Visually, the GT pack incorporates a lightweight carbon fiber roof, black details on certain body elements, as well as carbon pieces in the roof spoiler, the diffuser, or the titanium exhaust outlets. According to Porsche, its 0 to 100 km/h acceleration is better than without the pack, at 3.6 seconds, and its top speed reaches 305 km/h.
