Car of the week: Porsche Cayenne Turbo electric
Porsche's new electric Cayenne Turbo has supercar levels of performance but will it be enough to convert people from the combustion-engined competition?
- Words: Rory FH Smith
I’d hazard a guess that not one person fortunate enough to drive the 4.0-litre, twin turbo, 650 bhp Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT got out wishing it had another 490bhp. The pure, combustion-engined crowning moment for the Cayenne first rolled out in 2022 and covered off the 0-62mph dash in around three-seconds, which we can all agree is more than enough for car that can comfortably carry a family. But this is Porsche and performance improvements are, quite simply, mandatory for any new model. Which neatly explains why the new all-electric Porsche Cayenne Turbo has the same amount of power as Aston Martin’s Valhalla supercar.
