"Porsche is getting ready to launch an all-electric version of the Cayenne. That's a big deal, because the Cayenne is arguably the most important modern Porsche. It was the company's first SUV at the turn of the millennium, and it's still the standard-bearer for Porsche's SUV efforts. The Macan Electric may be good, but this is the king, and now it's electric, toowith an asterisk. Porsche will continue to sell the gas-powered Cayenne for the foreseeable future. But this "E4""
"electric Cayenne is emerging as a new tip-of-the-spear tech flagship that goes beyond even the Taycan in some ways. But I wanted to see if what is now Porsche's biggest, heaviest EV could still be a range champ. Along with Tom Molougney from State of Charge, Kyle Conner from Out Of Spec and a team of Porsche representatives, I hit the highway in an E4 Cayenne prototype."
Porsche will introduce an all-electric Cayenne called the E4 while continuing to sell the gas-powered Cayenne. The E4 is positioned as a new tech flagship that in some ways surpasses the Taycan. A prototype E4 Cayenne was driven at 70 mph into the California desert with representatives and EV testers to evaluate highway range. The test produced strong results and reduced range anxiety for the driver. The Cayenne prototype covered many hours and required only a few stops. The E4 supports around 400 kW charging, indicating rapid recharge capability and competitive long-distance usability.
