Porsche
Porsche's SUV. Multiple generations including Turbo and Turbo S variants. The car that saved Porsche financially in the 2000s.
The Porsche Cayenne launched in 2003 as Porsche first SUV. The Cayenne saved Porsche financially during a difficult period in the 2000s; the volume of Cayenne sales funded development of subsequent Porsche products including the Panamera and Macan. Three generations have refined the formula: original (2003-2010), second (2011-2018), and third (2019+). The Cayenne shares platform with the Volkswagen Touareg, Audi Q7, Bentley Bentayga, and Lamborghini Urus. Porsche tunes the chassis differently for sport-luxury character. The Cayenne Turbo and Turbo S variants are the high-performance trim levels with twin-turbocharged V8 engines. The Cayenne Coupe (2019+) added a more sport-styled body variant. The Cayenne Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid variants brought electrification to the platform. The new Cayenne EV (announced for around 2025-2026) will be the fully electric variant. On WhipJury, Cayenne submissions are common, particularly Turbo and Turbo S variants. The community recognizes the Cayenne as Porsche transition into the SUV segment.
