Porsche expands all-electric SUV model lineup with the Cayenne S

Its all-wheel drive system delivers 400 kW (544 PS) – and up to 490 kW (666 PS) with Launch Control. With model-specific front and rear sections, the Cayenne S Electric stands out with a distinctive appearance. In addition, Porsche is also presenting curated ‘Director's Cuts’ from Style Porsche with the ‘Style’ product line. The first of these is the Interior Style Package, which will be available for all versions of the Cayenne Electric.

The new Cayenne S Electric complements the existing lineup, positioned between the Cayenne Electric and the top-of-the-range Cayenne Electric Turbo model. An additional 165 kW (224 PS) of power, sharpened exterior design, and even more extensive equipment options differentiate the S from the entry-level model. The Cayenne S Electric accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds and reaches a top speed of up to 250 km/h for the track. The WLTP range for the European delivered model is up to 653 kilometres (combined cycle)^*. 

Like the other two current Cayenne Electric models, the S variant features a high-voltage battery with a gross energy capacity of 113 kWh, which, at up to 400 kW^** at a suitable fast-charging station, can be charged from 10 to 80 per cent State of Charge (SoC) in 16 minutes^#.

Direct oil cooling for high continuous load and efficiency

The drive system, which features one permanent magnet synchronous motor on both the front and rear axles, delivers a system output of 400 kW (544 PS), or up to 490 kW (666 PS) with Launch Control. Like the Cayenne Turbo, the Cayenne S uses direct oil cooling for the rear-axle electric motor. Unlike with conventional electric motors, the heat is dissipated directly from the current-carrying components. The pulse inverter on the rear axle uses silicon carbide as a semiconductor material and processes currents of up to 620 amps.

The Cayenne S Electric is characterised by model-specific front and rear aprons in Volcano Grey Metallic, while the inserts and diffuser are painted in the body colour. The exterior styling is rounded off by 20-inch Cayenne S Aero wheels.

Optional equipment previously reserved only for the Turbo model is now available for the Cayenne S. The optional Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus) provides even more precise driving dynamics. The premium Porsche Active Ride suspension almost completely compensates for body movements and ensures exceptional driving stability. The high-performance Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB) system with yellow-painted brake callipers is also optionally available for the Cayenne S.

With the Push-to-Pass function¹, up to 90 kW (122 PS) of additional power can be called upon for 10 seconds. The built-in Track endurance mode ensures maximum performance on track through targeted pre-conditioning of the battery.

Like all the fully electric Cayenne models, the Cayenne S can be configured to suit individual tastes. Thirteen exterior colours and various interior and accent packages offer customers a wide range of possibilities for personalisation. The Cayenne S Electric is available to order now.

New Offering from Exclusive Manufaktur: the Interior Style Package

Under the ‘Style’ product line, Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur is offering curated packages devised by the Style Porsche design studio and Exclusive Manufaktur. The first of these ‘Director's Cuts’ is the Interior Style Package, which is now available as an option for all derivatives of the Cayenne Electric.

With a colour and material scheme coordinated with the exterior colour Mystic Green Metallic, the package creates a modern and exclusive ambience. At its heart is the two-tone leather upholstery in Black and Delgada Green, which extends to the door trims and the 14-way adjustable Comfort Seats, with the seat belts also picking up on the colour theme. Delgada Green decorative stitching emphasises the attention to detail inside the car, as does the embroidered outline of the Porsche crest on the headrests.

Aluminium decorative trims, painted in Izabal Green, provide modern contrasts against the upholstered leather surfaces. The GT sports steering wheel trimmed in black leather features a 12 o'clock marking and cross stitching in Delgada Green. An Izabal Green ring on the airbag module, and a knurled Drive Mode selection wheel in the same colour, emphasise the distinctive styling. In the driver's direct field of vision, the dial of the compass, the Sports Chrono stopwatch and the power meter in the instrument cluster all incorporate the Izabal Green accents.

The features are complemented by an accent package in Silvershade, as well as an armrest in the centre console embossed with ‘Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur’ lettering. The vehicle key is also finished in Izabal Green and is presented in a case with decorative stitching in Delgada Green. The overall look is rounded off with black anodised aluminium door sill guards with the model designation illuminated in green, as well as black floor mats with decorative edging, emblems and stitching.

Published figures should only be used for the purpose of comparison between vehicles. Information provided and images displayed on our websites or links therefrom may relate to models, performance characteristics, optional extras and features only available in overseas models of the vehicle and must not be relied upon as they may be unavailable in Australia. Please note, product changes may have been made since the production of any content. PS (PferdeStärke, German for horsepower) is the standard unit used in the European Union to measure the power output of a motor in ‘metric horsepower’. Important: please contact an Official Porsche Centre for specific information on current data, vehicles, performance characteristics, optional extras and features available in Australian delivered vehicles.

¹ Battery charge level and battery temperature may affect the Push-to-Pass performance.

* The published kilometre (km) range figure is based on laboratory test results from Porsche AG calculated in accordance with the Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP) regulation for the European delivered Cayenne S Electric model (WLTP combined range). The WLTP combined range is calculated by completing the WLTP combined cycle which is a standardised 30-minute test that averages four different driving conditions: low, medium, high and extra-high speeds. The data is intended to help comparisons with other vehicles which have published WLTP combined cycle data. Data for Australian specific models will be published when available. The actual achievable real world km range you experience can be less than the WLTP test result, depending on numerous factors such as speed, traffic and weather conditions, driving habits, elevation change, how much weight the vehicle is carrying, use of vehicle features/accessories such as heating or air-conditioning, and wheels/tyres among others.

** Cayenne charging power under specific conditions, namely using a CCS fast charging station supplying > 400 kW, > 850 V, > 520A, with the battery having an initial state of charge of 45 – 48 per cent and a battery temperature of 40°C - 42°C.  The charging power you can access will depend on a number of factors such as the type of charger used, the amount of charge the battery has and ambient conditions.

^# Cayenne charging times are based on rates observed during Porsche AG testing on a test vehicle in controlled test conditions using a high speed direct current (DC) chargerwith a battery State of Charge (SoC) from 10 per cent to 80 per cent SoC under optimal conditions, namely DC fast charging station supplying >390kW, >850 V, >520A, with a battery temperature of 15 °C, initial state of charge of 9 per cent and remaining range <60 km. The rates of charge you experience will differ depending on a number of factors such as the battery’s SoC, charger being used, ambient conditions, , as well as the battery age and condition. We recommend charging to 80 per cent to assist in maximising your vehicle’s battery range and battery life over time.
