So far this is the most beautiful, powerful and smooth driving tech marvel we have owned! The interior Bordeaux Red interior is gorgeous and the technical layout of the center panel, and dash is awesome if you like separate buttons/switches for everything. The panoramic roof is to die for! Thanks Porsche!!!

The perfect mix of sports car and suv.

Great car. Great price. Really enjoyed working with Greg Bancroft and the entire Porsche Charlotte Team. The 2017 Cayenne S e-hybrid doesn’t disappoint. I recommend the car and the dealership to everyone.

Fast, Reliable and fun to drive

Porsche has made an excellent SUV. Very comfortable and a pleasure to drive. The Electrical Hybrid Engine is very smart and within 50 miles radius, I get over 60 MPG while in the Sport mode, the car becomes a sport car.

Great car with great handling

This car isn’t like other SUVs. It has attitude. The Cayenne has strength and sporty handling, while contained in a sleek body, comfortable passenger and driver interiors.

Excellent all-rounder

It is hard for any vehicle to tick all of the boxes but this one comes close. It rides well, handles great for an SUV and has been very efficient when compared with similar vehicles. I have yet to see less than 20 mpg and most recently exceeded 30 mpg for a tank of fuel. I plug it in every evening so my first 14-17 miles each day are usually all electric. Range is reduced in cold weather but the environmental control system copes extremely well. I live in a hilly area in eastern New York and have experience operating in temperatures around 0* Fahrenheit. The Cayenne performs much better than one might expect. There have been no issues with the vehicle whatsoever. My only complaint would be the lack of a spare tire. I am not a fan of the supplied tire sealant but the supplied air compressor has been useful. Other observations include: The LED headlights are fantastic, The heated seats and steering wheel are appreciated, The ventilated seats are nice but may be unnecessary, The switches on the console may confuse some people, To get the most from the vehicle one should be familiar with the charging system and be prepared to use the E-Charge button to recharge on the go.

Very nice vehicle

Very nice car. Lots of fun to drive and love the battery power that recharges quickly. Lots of power and interior is convenient and stylish. Would like to see some extras as standard in every vehicle such as lane assist.

Outstanding!

This is truly an exceptional representation of the Porsche Brand. Outstanding performance with day to day usability! What more could I have asked for? The plug in is just a bonus for the already efficiency Porsche!
