Key Points:
- Porsche is launching the Cayenne Coupe Electric this summer, a sleeker, lower-roofed variant of the Cayenne Electric, featuring a unique windshield and improved aerodynamics with a drag coefficient of 0.23, matching the Tesla Model 3.
- The Coupe version retains much of the standard Cayenne Electric's interior but adds a standard panoramic sunroof and offers a Lightweight Sport Package with carbon-fiber elements and performance upgrades.
- Available in base, S, and Turbo trims, all Cayenne Coupe Electrics have dual electric motors, all-wheel drive, a 113-kWh battery, and 800-volt architecture enabling fast charging from 10% to 80% in under 16 minutes.
- Performance specs include 435 hp and 4.5 seconds 0-60 mph for the base model, 657 hp and 3.6 seconds for the S, and a top Turbo Coupe with 1,139 hp and 2.4 seconds 0-60 mph, priced from $116,150 to $170,350.
- Porsche expects the Coupe variant to be popular, noting that the previous gas-powered Cayenne Coupe accounted for 40% of U.S. Cayenne sales last year, justifying the electric Coupe's introduction.
