After weighing it up, I’m keeping my Cayenne EV order.

I personally feel the coupe silhouette looks better on the ICE model. On the EV, I prefer the look of the standard roofline. I’m also not willing to trade away the larger boot. And the extra ~30km range is also not meaningfully different

Now let's hope they introduce some decent new colours as the choice is particularly sparse with some just downright awful IMHO - not least the launch colour of the Coupé (Monteverde Metallic - sounds good but looks like a NATO Olive). Mystic Green is questionable too - seen similar on various Hyundais. Perhaps in the metal things will look better.

The real range increase is on the highway, where aero is paramount, will likely be about 8%. The Coupe has an 8% lower Cd and a slightly lower frontal area so close to 10% lower CDA. The WLTP test protocol only factors highway speeds less than half the time during a test.

Yes - was on the configurator unless its been removed now. Favourite gadget on Chinese luxury cars but a pricey option

Soft close is standard however (motorised closing if not door not properly closed (as per the boot / trunk).

Improved range over the boxy non Coupé variant. Personally, I'd go with the coupé now and have already moved my config across.
The electric doors are not available on the UK configurator and I can’t see them on the US site. I’m going through the spec tomorrow - the sales guy has said that he was in Mallorca 2 weeks ago for the sales training and he was told massage seats and electric doors may be available in Q3. I’ll miss the massage seats as I don’t want to wait until 2027 as I assume Q3 is ordering not delivery. I’ll know more tomorrow.

PRESS RELEASE

New 2026 Porsche Cayenne Coupe Electric joins gas-powered and plug-in hybrid Cayenne Coupe variants

04/24/2026

No matter the powertrain, the Cayenne Coupe is the stylish, performance-focused all-rounder with a wide range of versatility.

At a glance
  • With its striking flyline, the Cayenne Coupe Electric now complements the Cayenne Electric SUV line-up
  • Features same interior, powertrain, and suspension technology as the SUVs, and adds Sport Chrono package and panoramic glass roof as standard
  • Gas-powered and plug-in hybrid Cayenne Coupe variants will continue to be offered in parallel
ATLANTA. The iconic 911 “flyline” and striking proportions come together to define the new Cayenne Coupe Electric models, which are among the most emotive and sporty vehicles in the SUV segment – not only in terms of design but also in outstanding E-Performance. Since its entry into the market in 2019, the Coupe variants of the Cayenne have continuously increased in share. For 2025, the Cayenne Coupe body style represented 40% of share for the US market.

Design

The Cayenne Coupe Electric models combine commanding presence with the iconic styling of the flyline derived from the Porsche 911. It features a unique roof design, with a new windshield specific to the coupe. The gently sloping roofline sweeps elegantly over the car’s broad shoulders, giving the Cayenne Coupe Electric a particularly sporty appearance.

The adaptive rear spoiler blends harmoniously with the body, while the flush rear window emphasizes width and creates a clean look. Precisely drawn lines, broad proportions and high-gloss black window surrounds form a design that exudes sportiness in every detail – extroverted and clearly positioned: a Porsche sports car through and through.

Performance

All variants of the Cayenne Coupe Electric utilize the same 800-volt powertrain and adaptive two-chamber, two-valve air suspension concept as its respective SUV counterparts. With launch control, the Cayenne Coupe Electric can send 435 hp and 615 ft.-lbs. of torque to all four wheels. At the top end of the range, the Cayenne Turbo Coupe Electric generates up to 1,139 hp and 1,106 ft.-lbs. of torque, while the Cayenne S Coupe makes 657 hp and 796 ft.-lbs. of torque when using launch control. Rear-axle steering is optional on all models, while electro-hydraulic Active Ride suspension and Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus options are only available on S and Turbo models.

Max PowerMax Torque0-60Top Track Speed
Cayenne Coupe325 kW (435 hp)615 ft.-lbs.4.5 s143 mph
Cayenne S Coupe490 kW (657 hp)796 ft.-lbs.3.6 s155 mph
Cayenne Turbo Coupe850 kW (1139 hp)1106 ft.-lbs.2.4 s162 mph

Charging performance is also a priority for Porsche, and the Cayenne Coupe Electric models share their exemplary capabilities with the SUVs. A NACS port sits within the drivers-side rear fender, while a traditional J1772 AC port is on the passenger-side rear fender for level 2 charging requirements. When connected to a compatible charging station that can output at least 400 kW at 800 volts, the Cayenne Coupe Electric’s 113 kWh battery can be charged from 10-80% in less than 16 minutes under ideal conditions. A CCS adapter is included as standard.

Aerodynamics

The coupe body style with its sloping roofline further enhances aerodynamic efficiency. In addition, the roof height of the Cayenne Coupe Electric is 24 millimeters lower than the SUV and boasts a drag coefficient of just 0.23 (SUV: 0.25). The Porsche Active Aerodynamics system, which features cooling-air flaps and an adaptive spoiler, optimizes efficiency, downforce, and cooling. Like the Cayenne Turbo Electric SUV, the Cayenne Turbo Coupe Electric also features active side aeroblades to help reduce drag.

The rear seat system (available either as a two-seat or a 2+1 configuration) offers two-way electric adjustment. The rear seat backrests can be folded forward at the touch of the button from the luggage compartment. The cargo area cover can be stowed beneath the load space floor when not in use, and a front luggage compartment provides even further storage. The Cayenne Coupe Electric has a towing capacity of up to 7,716 lbs. and can be optionally equipped with an Off-Road Package which improves approach angle.

Lightweight Sport Package

Motorsports-inspired elements feature heavily in the interior, including fabric seat centers and the classic Pepita pattern, a Race-Tex headliner and carbon trim panels. Depending on the model, the package reduces weight by up to 38.8 lbs. A black leather interior and a 2+1 rear seat layout are optionally available.

MSRP for the Cayenne Coupe Electric starts at $113,800, the Cayenne S Coupe Electric will start at $131,200, and the Cayenne Turbo Coupe Electric will start at $168,000. Pricing does not include the delivery, processing and handling fee of $2,350.

Don't understand why the Coupé wasn't launched first or in parallel.

Addresses one key dislike for me and that was the slab-like rear end.

Now on the configurator too.
….love my Taycan but looking at the cayenne coupe I can’t seem to unsee a ford mustang EV. And, I am not happy about that.

Porsche must have withdrawn the option as it was there at launch for the Cayenne EV. Stupid, pointless and no doubt a problematic feature.

What about Rear Seat Entertaiment option?

None for Macan EV as well. I understand that people prefer iPads over Porsche entertainment system but with current seat design they should provide mounting option for iPads (like for example BMW). I am now facing coming up with a non crash proven solution. Positioned too high and detaching on impact at the wrong angle, iPads can turn into a deadly weapon. What a shame. Crash ratings should deduct one star for not having a solution.

Would have loved this option on normal Cayenne EV in case you need it. Not a fan of rails.
