    My Cayenne Turbo EV delivered. 1st impressions review

    1 month in and the car continues to exceed my expectations. incredibly comfortable and composed. Any journey length is a piece of cake with driver assist in comfort mode. (To be fair, all modes are comfortable including sport plus) Push to pass is like lighting jet engines and the power and...

    My Cayenne Turbo EV delivered. 1st impressions review

    update on the tinted lights. I’ve seen a Cayenne in the local showroom without the tint which I parked near. So glad I optioned it, they do look much better tinted.

    My Cayenne Turbo EV delivered. 1st impressions review

    I’m not sure I could tell any difference with the tinted unless it was next to a non tinted version! drive assist is excellent. Steering is good, adaptive cruise control and adoption of speed limits makes motorway driving a breeze. a light touch of the hand on the bottom of the wheel and it...

    Thanks. I’m really happy with the looks.

    The standard brakes are more than enough even when driving hard on the roads. A friend has the ceramic brakes on his McLaren and they make a lot of noise. As I’m not tracking the car,I didn’t see the point

    My Cayenne Turbo EV delivered. 1st impressions review

    Yes. We have PAR (it was an extra!!) Options we specced are in the screen shot below (I probably went a bit OTT on them!) Happy to answer any questions on them.

    They are both incredible to drive but in subtly different ways.

    My Cayenne Turbo EV delivered. 1st impressions review

    we’ve got the Macan EV GTS and this handles as well as that. My old iX 50 was slower acceleration so not a fair comparison (though both the Macan and Cayenne are much better handling cars anyway)

    I’ve used launch control. It’s unbelievably rapid but in a composed way. Can’t ever see the need for it but suspect it will get used though! It handles beautifully. The rear steering helps keep the car feeling sharp and sporty. Lively but always composed.

    Scratches and chips. the salesman (I know him so believe him) said that if I get some, save them up and get them all done at once before you sell it. apparently it’s the Porsche body shop that does the work and not some random.

    that’s a good idea! I wonder if I could get a roof tent!!

    My Cayenne Turbo EV delivered. 1st impressions review

    Absolutely. As long as it’s a contrast. the ‘silver’ decal noted for is like an off white. Would also look great on the V grey!

    I love the way the stripes break up a rather large solid side.

    I’ve got the Porsche paint protect insurance but probably won’t go down the PPF route

    Cayenne EV Turbo - Mine has arrived at the dealer (UK)

    Rear steering makes it feel so much smaller than it is. Definitely well worth having. The upgraded suspension is next level compared to anything I’ve had before. panoramic roof is large. The opening is bigger than expected as well which is great. My son loves the passenger screen. Watched...

    Cayenne EV Turbo - Mine has arrived at the dealer (UK)

    Picked it up yesterday and am extra impressed. quality seems exceptional. Power is ridiculous! Incredibly smooth and comfortable ride (70mph feels like you are going so much slower). assistance package all seems great including automatic adoption speed limits. CarPlay on the screen is next level...
