Due to the fact that further up the variety sits the Cayenne Turbo, and with an impressive 1,156 hp, it pushes performance into supercar area, regardless of weighing well over 2 and a half tonnes. It's a reminder of simply how far electrical SUVs have actually come.

    Seen it on Carwow, looks stunning in the right paint but in white… it looks like a BYD.

      Depends on the white. I had a white car, which looked bland in photos, but the paint had some pearly stuff in it, so in person it looked really good. Just reverse what red was: looks nice in photos and video, but not so great in real life.

    Interesting to see charging speeds pushing toward 400 kW. Thermal management behind the scenes must be doing some heavy lifting to make that sustainable.

      As usual though it’s the curve that matters not the peak number they quote, that the cars never hit in reality.

    I checked porsche site in my country … i am just a 232.450 EUR (few extras thrown in) away from 1.156 HP …

    Awesome review Nicola. Don’t forget the drag Cd coefficient number needs to be multiplied by the surface area to get the actual drag. So a smaller car with a ‘worse’ shape may very well have an overall lower drag.

    Nicola is to my thinking every bit as entertaining as Jezza. great reviews. I think she loves this car, Who wouldn’t !.

    I just lost it when you read the horsepower for the Cayenne S, you are a comedic GENIUS!

    I always enjoy Nicola’s reviews. Despite the fact I’ll never need such a vehicle in my life. I especially enjoyed the tongue out offroading. ๐Ÿ˜‚

    Every EV should offer an option to turn on the inside “engine” noise and select from 4,6,8 cylinders…and get a little rumbling bass action. So simple, yet brilliant.

      The Renault Clio sport had something similar to this idea back in the day to a lesser extent, choosing from a Clio v6 sound and other Renault sports engine sounds, even a Nissan GTR๐Ÿ˜‚

    Ive ordered it via work but think I have under wheeled it on the 21inch RS Spyder wheels. Worried now.

    Great and fun review 7:18 It has the most powerful regen braking in the market. It is just not a lift up regen, but if you press brake pedal it is up to 600kW regen braking. more than anyone else.
