Initially, the launch included the base model without any additional designation and a Turbo variant, followed by the mid-range Cayenne S Electric in March. Series production of the vehicles began in February in Bratislava, Slovakia, on the same production line as the familiar petrol and hybrid Cayenne models.As the combustion-engine Cayenne has long been available in a coupé version, it was only a matter of time before Porsche introduced a fully electric Cayenne Coupé. The company has now unveiled this crossover SUV in Beijing. Porsche states that the Cayenne Coupé Electric draws inspiration from the iconic shape of the 911. According to the team in Zuffenhausen, the model combines powerful proportions with exceptional electric performance.“The gently sloping roofline sweeps elegantly over the car’s broad shoulders and gives the Cayenne Coupé a particularly sporty appearance,” says Thomas Stopka, Head of Exterior Design, Style Porsche. “Precisely drawn lines, wide proportions and high-gloss black side window strips form a design that exudes sportiness in every detail. Extroverted and clearly positioned, the new Cayenne Coupé Electric is a sports car through and through.” Image: Porsche Image: Porsche Image: Porsche Image: Porsche Image: Porsche Image: PorscheAt 4.985 metres in length, the battery-electric Cayenne Coupé is the same size as the SUV model and just as wide at 1.98 metres (without mirrors). However, at its highest point, it is 24 millimetres lower, measuring 1.65 metres. The luggage capacity is 534 litres as standard, expanding to 1,347 litres with the rear seats folded down. The front boot (frunk) offers an additional 90 litres of storage. As with the electric SUV, an optional towing device with a capacity of up to 3.5 tonnes is available, along with an off-road package.Technically, the Cayenne Coupé Electric, like the standard Cayenne Electric and the smaller electric SUV Macan, is based on the dedicated electric platform PPE. Thanks to 800-volt technology, the Cayenne Coupé Electric can charge at compatible DC fast chargers with up to 390 kW, and under specific conditions, even up to 400 kW. Charging from 10 to 80 percent is expected to take just 16 minutes. The standard on-board charger provides an AC charging capacity of 11 kW, with an optional upgrade to 22 kW available. Many further details about the technology in the Cayenne Electric have already been explored in this Deep Dive.Another similarity to the SUV version of the Cayenne Electric is the three available drivetrain variants: the base model without any additional designation, the S variant, and the Turbo variant. All versions feature all-wheel drive, whereas both the Macan and the Taycan also offer entry-level versions with only a single motor.Coupé ElectricCoupé S ElectricCoupé Turbo ElectricDrivetrainAWDAWDAWDPower325 kW490 kW850 kWTorque835 Nm1,080 Nm1,500 NmAcceleration4.8 s3.8 s2.5 sTop speed230 km/h250 km/h260 km/hBattery113 kWh113 kWh113 kWhPrice109,000 euros130,300 euros165,500 eurosThe pricing reveals that Porsche has added a premium of 3,800 euros to the base version of the electric Cayenne Coupé compared to the 105,200 euros for the standard electric SUV. For the S variant, the premium is even higher at 3,900 euros. However, the price of the Turbo variant remains unchanged.Thanks to the sloping roofline, the aerodynamic drag is improved compared to the electric SUV. The drag coefficient (cW) is 0.23 for the Coupé, compared to 0.25 for the SUV. This improves the combined WLTP range of the Cayenne Coupé Electric by up to 18 kilometres, depending on the model, reaching up to 669 kilometres. However, Porsche has not yet provided exact range figures for all three versions.porsche.com (press release), porsche.com (product page)
