Porsche has announced its plans to electrify its entire lineup in the coming years, and the latest vehicle to join the ranks of electric cars is the Porsche Cayenne. The luxury automaker has confirmed that an all-electric version of its popular Cayenne SUV is officially in the works and is expected to arrive after the electric Macan and 718 sports car.
The Porsche Cayenne has been a popular model for the brand, and the addition of an electric variant will undoubtedly appeal to consumers looking for a luxury SUV with the latest technology. The electric Cayenne is expected to retain the same sleek design and high-performance capabilities that Porsche is known for, while also offering zero-emissions driving.
According to Porsche, the electric Cayenne will be built on the Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture, which is being co-developed with Audi. The PPE platform will allow for a range of up to 700 kilometers (435 miles) on a single charge, making it one of the most capable electric SUVs on the market.
The electric Cayenne will also feature advanced technology such as 800-volt fast charging, which will allow for a quick charge to 80% capacity in just 15 minutes. Porsche has also promised that the electric Cayenne will deliver impressive performance, with the ability to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just 3.5 seconds.
While the electric Cayenne is not expected to arrive until after 2025, it is a significant step for Porsche as it continues its commitment to electrification. The brand has already introduced the Taycan, its first fully electric vehicle, and plans to launch the electric Macan in 2023
