Interesting... the Turbo comes with PZero Rs (well review said so... could have just been an option).

The issue with this Cayenne is, it doesn’t really look special, in the same way the Taycan does.

Exactly, and the same for the Macan. My wife's response was literally "It looks like every other SUV".

Would be nice to see the same tech transfer to the Taycan soon but guess that is just a dream.

You should be banned from this forum... joke.

I’m not sure what sets this EV SUV apart from any other electric SUV. Other than brand loyalty, what’s the unique selling point?

Interesting. Thanks for sharing!

Porsche used to have their magic touch on whatever they worked on: RS2 vs Audi 80; 500 E vs Mercedes Mercedes-Benz W124; Macan vs Q5 etc. They always manage to make a "normal generic" car become more fun to drive.
Hopefully they'll still manage to bring it here. Though I'm not interested in a SUV, I'd rather keep my Taycan.

Fun to drive unlike BMW CADILLAC MB.

Is “fun to drive” unique among all electric SUVs then? The Cayenne is the only one that’s fun to drive? What about the Lotus, Jaguar, Lambo ones?

Genuine question as I haven’t driven the new Cayenne, only the hybrid and that wasn’t fun at all

Seriously? Jag & Lambo do not offer an EV. The Lotus has poor reviews. The only EV SUV's that are remotely engaging is the Polestar 3 and Lucid Gravity. The onboard charger grenades on the Polestar about every 6 weeks then you wait two months for replacement. Nevermind the interminable software issues. The Lucid has had horrible software issues too but it seems since some time in February that's mostly fixed. The minivan look ain't helping sales.

I have a feeling the next SUV that will be engaging to drive will be the Lucid Cosmos. The handling might be a tad behind the Cayenne but it will have a smaller footprint which always improves the fun quotient. I'll bet you the Lucid will hae as much, if not more, interior and storage space as the Cayenne as Lucid is a master of packaging and Porsche might be the worst.

I'm ready for my Cayenne!

The Lotus Eletra is also engaging, but it's at 250k... good luck!

And the top spec cayenne, the only one that is engaging to drive... is also 250k.
Poverty spec one is a fridge/bathtub... same as the macan EV, only the turbo macan ev handles decently.

According to Kyle atout of spec the Macan EV GTS handles the best of all Macan EV trims, I’ll try to confirm that review soon myself
