Porsche Cayenne Coupe Electric debuts with 1,139 hp and 669 km range as company retreats from all-electric strategy
"The Cayenne Coupe Electric is built on the Premium Platform Electric, featuring an 800-volt architecture co-developed by Porsche and Audi, underpinning several models. It offers three variants, with the base model producing 435 horsepower and reaching 60 mph in 4.5 seconds, while the Turbo trim boasts 1,139 horsepower and accelerates in just 2.4 seconds."
"Porsche's launch of the Cayenne Coupe Electric comes at a time of significant financial challenges, including a 93% decline in operating profit and a first-ever quarterly loss. The company has also retreated from its ambitious target of 80% electric sales by 2030, indicating a strategic shift in response to market realities."
Porsche introduced the Cayenne Coupe Electric at Auto China, featuring 1,139 hp, a 0-60 mph time of 2.4 seconds, and a range of 669 km. The vehicle starts at $113,800 and charges rapidly in 16 minutes. This launch occurs during a challenging financial period for Porsche, marked by a 93% profit decline and a new CEO. The company has adjusted its EV sales target and will continue offering combustion engine models, indicating a belief that the premium EV market is smaller than previously thought.
