Re, Porsche Active Ride or not, we have many conflicting reviews of it. Some who have driven a Taycan and rave about their PAR improving it, some who have it and are lukewarm, some auto-media who says it is better than sliced bread, is totally necessary — while other auto-media (though a lesser...
Key comment by Billbuck about many Euro countries including up to a 20% VAT. In the U.S. most states have a significant tax that is not included in the MSRP, nor in the configurator.
Seven “S” model coupes are now shown as incoming to dealerships; 20 turbos on their way. Previously on the Cayenne EV finder it only had SUV versions listed as U.S. dealership “incoming.”
Leather is so much easier to keep and maintain “nice” if the interior is more than rarely casually treated, so believe “use case’ is critically before making the RaceTex vs leather decision, e.g., family of five with young kids, beach trips with sunscreen, French fries being handed back and...
For reasons previously mentioned in other posts, there are challenges to getting a PTS vehicle, such as a specialized allocation being needed (sometimes rare, sometimes not even avaialble at many dealerships), significant extra cost, timing of production, etc.
My wife and I are very pleased...
Thank you kwrudy123 for your thoughtful post two above. I did not read it as any ego on your part, but your long term Porsche experience. You made a really good point that quite a few video-journalists were experiencing PAR for the first or second time, and like the acclimation period needed...
Glad that they will work with you to make it yours. Also pleased that you have at least three weeks “extra” to make sure that happens.
Many of us can not wait until you post about your “S” ownership experiences — especially while you are spiritedly driving it.
Another “S” model review to help answer is it the sweet spot model and does it have enough power (of course answered by the video-reviewer’s perspective), so FWIW.
I just looked up in the UK configurator (which has more performance info than the U.S. one) and the Cayenne EV S’s acceleration “Acceleration 49-74 mph (80-120km/h)” is identical to the Macan EV Turbo @ 2.0 seconds.
Another “secondary” data point starts at 12:55 in the below Auto Zeitung video in which we watch the speed quickly accelerate from 94+ km (58.4 MPH) to 214 km (138MPH) when he activates the 10 second Push-to-Pass.
We have very limited input, even less hard data on what is it like to drive an “S.” Perhaps the most on-point comment is:

Any member here driven one please and could comment how lively it feels accelerating...
One more member’s PAR input (“voksik”’s— we thank you), as to thoughts on PAR after driving a full day in many different Cayenne EV’s (on below linked thread).

It has been confirmed by a Porsche rep that the 2027 Cayenne will offer both electro opening-n-closing doors as an option and also the option of message seats. Re the latter, the message function might also become available on the 18 way seats — in addition as has been traditionally optional...
