The Cayenne Electric (2026) is Porsche’s first fully battery-electric Cayenne, sold alongside the petrol and plug-in hybrid Cayenne rather than replacing them. Built on the PPE (Premium Platform Electric) architecture shared with the Macan Electric, every version uses two electric motors and all-wheel drive. The range opens with the 435 hp Cayenne Electric and tops out with the 1,139 hp Cayenne Turbo Electric, the most powerful production Porsche to date. SUV and Coupe body styles are available; the Coupe has a 0.23 drag coefficient (SUV: 0.25) and a roofline 24 mm lower.

FORPORSCHE RATING: 8/10
Dual-motor AWD and 435 hp even in the entry model; class-leading 400 kW DC charging; over 300 miles of EPA range; optional wireless charging; strong 7,716 lb towing capacity.
Expensive: the entry model starts at $109,000; heavier than the petrol Cayenne; range still trails the hybrids for long towing trips.
The Cayenne enters its electric era without making buyers choose: petrol and hybrid models stay on sale. The base Cayenne Electric already out-accelerates most combustion Cayennes, and its charging speed removes much of the road-trip penalty. For most buyers it is the sweet spot of the electric range. See the Cayenne Turbo Electric for the flagship, or the Porsche Cayenne guide for every generation.
