One for the enthusiast driver today – the Porsche Cayenne turbo E-Hybrid Coupe
SUV – a German express from $297,200. The Cayenne SUV comes in wagon form
or in the sloped roof Coupe with a total of seven models, the turbo E-Hybrid
Coupe, the most powerful combustion engine Porsche available. The figures
staggering – 544kW of power and 950Nm of torque from its plug-in hybrid
powertrain – a combination of a twin turbo 4.0-litre V8 petrol engine paired with
an electric motor and despite tipping the scales at nearly 2600 kilos powering to
100km/hour in just 3.5-seconds. This German coupe style SUV feels absolutely
bullet proof, with a 25.9kWh battery we are talking about a very sophisticated
Porsche. With all wheel drive, eight speed Tiptronic automatic gearbox, an
adaptive electronic suspension, four available drive modes plus a very
sophisticated traction management system this is a technically impressive upper
luxury SUV – and the coupe style gives it a sporty profile to match the
performance capability. If I had a criticism, option prices on the test car tallied
$42,000, some simply over the top like the Porsche crest on the headrests $950
for branding, barely what you should consider an option. This aside, the
performance capability very impressive, details next segment. I’m David Berthon
