All three variants of the Cayenne Electric share the 113 kWh battery specification, yielding 623 km of range (WLTP) for the Cayenne Turbo Electric, while the S and base variants get up to 642 km (WLTP) and 653 km (WLTP), respectively.

Thanks to its 800-volt electrical architecture, up to 400 kW DC charging is possible, yielding a 10-80% recharge in less than 16 minutes, or adding 315 km of battery range with a 10-minute charge. The Cayenne Electric is the brand’s first to support inductive charging, at up to 11 kW.

Brake energy recuperation of up to 600 kW is possible in the Cayenne Electric, and 97% of all braking operation can be handled solely by the motors’ regenerative braking. As the top variant, the Cayenne Turbo Electric can be optioned with ceramic brake discs.

Chassis equipment also features air suspension as standard with the Turbo getting the PTV limited-slip differential as standard fit, while options include rear-wheel steering (up to five degrees), and an active suspension system.

Inside, the Cayenne Electric features a 14.25-inch OLED driver’s instrument display and a curved OLED Flow Display that merges the screen into the centre console. Also optional is a 14.9-inch passenger display, while air-conditioning controls and audio volume have physical inputs. The outer pair of rear seats also get electric adjustment.

    porsche has totally lost the plot. once understated, this is simply doing too much.

    • I fully support the complete transition to EVs. Old-timers like you just need to realise that EVs will continue to flood the market and very soon future generations will never know what ICE car is.

        he mentioned porsche specifically. 660 hp for RM 800 is comical when it will be smoked by commie EVs costing half the price.

        ain’t nobody talking about the transition to electric. comment was referring to how ridiculous this looks. porsches used to look understated, unassuming even. this design just looks over the top…like that rear bumper is simply not it.

  • Too big and too expensive. I guess we’ll see less next-gen Cayennes on the road than the local CKD kosong spec base Cayenne now, which is good. They were getting too ubiquitous.

  • It looks so overstyled and low.

    More of an obese hatchback rather than an SUV.
