Vehicle Overview

The Cayenne crossover SUV comes with a choice of a gas V-6 or V-8, a diesel V-6 or a gas-electric hybrid version. All have standard all-wheel drive and seat five. Competitors include the BMW X5 and Land Rover Range Rover Sport.

(Skip to details on the: Cayenne S Hybrid)
New for 2014

Lane departure warning is available. Porsche also makes minor changes to interior controls as a door-mounted switch now closes as well as opens the power liftgate, and the available sport exhaust now operates independent of Sport mode.

Exterior Highlights

  • Available skid plates and underbody protection for off-roading
  • Available panoramic glass roof or tilt/sliding moonroof
  • LED taillamps
  • Rear spoiler
  • 18-inch wheels; 19-, 20- or 21-inch wheels available

Interior Highlights

  • Touch-screen dashboard display
  • Available Bose or Burmester stereos
  • Available six-CD changer

Under the Hood

  • 300-horsepower, 3.6-liter V-6 (base model)
  • 240-hp, turbo-diesel 3.0-liter V-6 available
  • 400-hp, 4.8-liter V-8 (S model); 420 hp in GTS
  • 500-hp, turbocharged  4.8-liter V-8 (Turbo); 550 hp in Turbo S
  • Base Cayenne comes with six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic transmission
  • Diesel and V-8 models available only with automatic transmission
  • Automatic-transmission models feature stop-start technology (except Cayenne Diesel)
  • Available left-right torque vectoring and rear locking differential 
  • Available adaptive suspension

  • Seat-mounted front side-impact airbags
  • Driver’s knee airbag
  • Antilock brakes

Cayenne S Hybrid
The Cayenne S Hybrid combines acceleration comparable to that of the V-8-powered Cayenne S with the efficiency of a V-6, according to Porsche. It teams a 333-hp, supercharged 3.0-liter V-6 with two electric motors and a 288-volt battery pack for a combined 380 hp and 428 pounds-feet of torque.

  • Uses a step-gear automatic transmission, a version of the eight-speed automatic used in other Cayennes
  • Can accelerate up to 40 mph in electric mode 
  • Uses a “sailing” mode that shuts the engine off, allowing coasting at speeds as high as 97 mph 
  • Porsche claims it will go from zero to 60 mph in 6.1 seconds and achieve a top speed of 150 mph
