Like a regular Cayenne, only more exclusive, more expensive and less practical
The Porsche Cayenne Coupé really is one of those cars that appears to be an answer to a question you thought nobody was asking. The definition of a want, and not a need.Which seems quite odd for something that is ostensibly an SUB. Like all manufacturers however, Porsche is getting ever keener to make sure no niche goes unfilled. So what we have here, as it says on the tin, is a coupé version of its Cayenne SUV.Effectively a rival for high-end versions of the BMW X6, Mercedes GLE Coupé and the Range Rover Velar, the Cayenne Coupé at the very least should inject some dynamism into a class where it is generally lacking. It does that by being based on the best big SUV of the lot for those of us who love driving. Mechanically, you see, the Coupé is pretty much identical to the standard model.Which means it has recenntly received one of the most extensive product upgrades in the history of the company. There’s the usual stuff; new screens, new suspension, more power, more efficiency. But there’s also a change of nomenclature. The S, is once again, a V8.All of this is geared towards keeping the Cayenne feeling fresh, as from 2026 it will sit alongside the technically-unrelated Cayenne Electric, before disappearing entirely as Porsche goes fully electric.
