2020 Porsche Cayenne lineup gets Turbo S E-Hybrid

2020 Porsche Cayenne lineup welcomes a fresh flagship variant, which comes equipped with a Turbo S E-hybrid. This Turbo S E-hybrid combines the 541 hp from the twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 and the 134 hp from the electric motor, to produce a massive peak power of 670 hp. The carmaker has claimed that this crossover can achieve 60 miles per hour in just 3.6 seconds and can max out at 183 miles per hour. This flagship trim is available in either the sleek Cayenne Coupe or the standard Cayenne body style.

This flagship trim of 2020 Porsche Cayenne comes standard with a plethora of performance features such as active anti-roll bars, large carbon-ceramic brakes, and a torque-vectoring rear end. In addition to that, it gets the brand’s Sport Chrono package, which includes features like launch control and steering-wheel-mounted mode selector switch. 

The top of the line variant flaunts a 7.2-kilowatt charging cable that permits Cayenne’s 14.1-kilowatt-hour battery pack to get charged up fully on a 240-volt plug with a 50-amp circuit in less than two-and-a-half hours. The range and fuel economy of this car are yet to be released by the Environmental Protection Agency. The Turbo S E-Hybrid is likely to offer a range of more than 20 miles of all-electric driving. 

The addition of Turbo S E-Hybrid comes at a cost, and the flagship wears a price tag of $161,900 for the standard Cayenne body style and $164,400 for the sleek Cayenne Coupe. That’s approximately $35,000 more than the value of the standard Cayenne Turbo. Luckily, Porsche further adds the Cayenne Coupe E-Hybrid for the ones who have a five-figure budget. It comes at a price tag of $86,400 and offers a turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 engine that churns out 335 hp and an electric motor, which puts out 134 hp.
