Review and specifications
2026 Porsche Cayenne Electric
The most powerful production Porsche isn't a two-seat sports car. Instead, that title belongs to the Cayenne Turbo Electric, an EV version of the Cayenne luxury midsized SUV. Despite the name, it doesn't have a turbocharger. Instead, dual electric motors produce an astonishing 1,139 hp and 1,106 lb.-ft. of torque, which Porsche says can catapult the Turbo from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.4 seconds. The base-model Cayenne Electric, no slouch itself, will produce 435 hp, and a mid-grade Cayenne S Electric comes with 657 hp. All versions are available with wireless car charging: park the EV over a special plate on your garage floor to recharge, with no plugging in required.

Brand context
About Porsche
<p>Since the early 2000s, the Porsche lineup has expanded beyond dedicated performance cars to include the Panamera sedan and wagon, Cayenne midsized SUV, Macan compact SUV, and Taycan EV. Every Porsche we’ve tested has achieved stellar road-test and owner satisfaction scores, thanks to sharp handling, a controlled ride, superb braking performance, and beautifully crafted interiors. Although Consumer Reports’ survey data shows that its vehicles can be expensive to maintain and repair, the brand tends to do well in our reliability rankings. Porsche’s rich history and prestige add to the appeal. Even today, the name Porsche evokes the rear-engine 911, which rightfully remains a dream sports car for generations of enthusiasts. For less money, the mid-engined 718 Boxster roadster and Cayman coupe offer some of the most superb driving experiences possible.</p>
