Is the Porsche Cayenne SUV a good car?
Read our expert review
Words by: Autotrader
"Porsche is doubling down on electric vehicles and now the bigger of its two SUVs, the Cayenne, has become a zero-emission machine – following on from the smaller Macan. Don’t worry if you’re a fan of petrol or hybrid power, as the existing Cayenne will continue on sale alongside this newcomer for a good while yet, but if you’re ready to make the leap to an EV then you’ll be delighted to know the Cayenne Electric is an absolutely sensational creation from a company which is renowned for such things. If anything, it has improved by switching to electric power."
Green Rating
As part of the larger Volkswagen Group, Porsche uses 100 per cent renewable electricity in the production of the Cayenne Electric. It is also investing in wind and solar energy plants to account for the energy it estimates each car will require to cover 200,000km of driving over a 10-year period. Additionally, Porsche looks to reduce the climate impact of the Cayenne’s battery by using nickel sourced from the EU and by working with its suppliers to reduce CO2 emissions. However, there’s no escaping the Cayenne Electric is still a large, heavy and powerful luxury SUV which will inevitably be more resource intensive and less efficient than a smaller electric car.

Running costs for a Porsche Cayenne
5/5
For something that can accelerate quicker than most Ferraris, the Porsche Cayenne Turbo Electric will be comparably cheap to run. Provided you have a home wallbox and you can avail of a low overnight tariff to top the Porsche’s massive battery pack up for a matter of a few quid, there can surely be no more inexpensive way of experiencing the sort of supercar acceleration the Cayenne Turbo Electric can serve up than this. Also, a strong three-year, unlimited-mileage warranty on the car and an eight-year, 100,000-mile guarantee for the high-voltage battery provide further peace-of-mind that you shouldn’t be hit with any unexpected big bills during the opening years of ownership.
Reliability of a Porsche Cayenne
5/5
Older generations of the Porsche Cayenne had a few problems back in the day, but the previous version of the petrol- and hybrid-powered SUV proved pretty dependable – and now the Cayenne has turned electric, there’s even less on the vehicle which could potentially go wrong. An even better sign comes from the smaller Macan, which hasn’t developed any significant problems since it hit the market as an EV in 2024, so we’re expectant that the Cayenne Electric will prove highly dependable.
Safety for a Porsche Cayenne
5/5
Euro NCAP put the Porsche Cayenne Electric through its paces at the end of 2025, and it picked up the full five-star rating, also scoring highly in each of the subsections of the examination. There’s a lot of useful safety equipment on even the entry-level model, while those looking to put kids in the SUV will be happy to know there are ISOFIX positions on the outer two chairs of the second-row seating as well.
How comfortable is the Porsche Cayenne
5/5
This is an area where the previous Cayenne was hardly substandard, yet the switch to electric power has benefitted the SUV’s levels of comfort and refinement by significantly reducing noise, vibration and harshness. Furthermore, all versions come on supple air suspension with an adaptive element, so the Porsche can really soak up poor road surfaces with aplomb. It’s super-dignified and stable travelling at high pace on motorways too. The Turbo, though, goes even further with the clever active anti-roll and body-levelling system called Porsche Active Ride, which is genuinely bordering on the magical with the way it makes the Cayenne so comfortable and controlled in all situations. Also, it has 18-way adaptive sports seats in the front, and these are wonderfully supportive and plush, while space in the second row is cavernous enough that occupants can lounge around to their heart’s content – oh, and even the back seats are electrically adjustable across the range.
Features of the Porsche Cayenne
4/5
We’d mark the Cayenne Electric higher here, as there’s plenty of desirable standard equipment on all models, but in true Porsche fashion there’s an epic options list which can significantly push up the purchase price. Base cars aren’t completely devoid of luxuries, though, and come with items such as Matrix-LED headlights, 20-inch wheels and the new interior of the Cayenne Electric, complete with its 14.25-inch Curved Display digital instrument cluster and the centrepiece OLED Flow Display, which is an innovative infotainment screen with an upright upper section and an angled lower portion, joined seamlessly together.
Power for a Porsche Cayenne
5/5
It’s hard to ignore the headline 1,156 horsepower figure of the Porsche Cayenne Turbo Electric. Despite the SUV weighing around three tonnes, it has enough power to hit 62mph from rest in just 2.5 seconds. The Cayenne Turbo has the sort of performance usually reserved for the most exotic supercars, and yet you could conceivably use it as everyday family transport. As thoroughly indelible as the experience of Launch Control in the Cayenne Turbo is, though – and it’s as violently hilarious as being fired out of the station on Alton Towers’ Rita Queen Of Speed rollercoaster – the great news is that this big EV handles like a ‘proper’ Porsche: superb steering, fabulous body control, loads of grip and a real sense of fun at its wheel. It’s an astounding piece of engineering, no doubt about it.
