Last month, Porsche flew me to Düsseldorf for the Porsche Cayenne Technology Workshop, where engineers in classrooms taught me detailed technical minutiae about what’s good on the new 2019 Porsche Cayenne. The whole thing was extremely German, and that’s a very good thing. Here’s what I learned.
Few vehicles out there are as immensely satisfying than the Porsche Cayenne Turbo. It angers snooty purists who hate that it exists, it’s fast and it can tow most other Porsches. The new 2019 Cayenne Turbo is quicker than ever, with a claimed 550 horsepower and 567 lb-ft of torque, complete with active aerodynamics…
Never before shown to the public, but Porsche actually tried to make a convertible Cayenne before. This is it. In the back, it’s split in half vertically to show two different rear design treatments. Did we miss it, or are you glad we never saw it?
I remember when people thought it was the END TIMES back in 2003 when the first Porsche Cayenne came out. “An SUV, from Porsche?” they cried. “Surely we are doomed!” Well, the apocalypse never came, and the Cayenne earned its respect for being very quick and engaging to drive. Now a new 2019 Porsche Cayenne is here,…
The slightly redesigned 2019 Porsche Cayenne isn’t supposed to make its way before our eyes until Tuesday, but Fridays are more fun anyway. Here, have a look at some recently leaked photos that appear to be it. Stay awhile, if you’d like.
The beautiful unobtanium Porsche Cayenne S Diesel birthed of magical unicorn tears and luxurious fancy-torques that of course America doesn’t get just set a new Guinness World Record. The Cayenne just towed the heaviest aircraft ever towed by a production vehicle: a 314-ton Airbus A380.
When most people think of off-roading, few think of a Porsche, but the Cayenne is far more capable than its scourge-of-Nordstrom’s-parking-lot reputation would suggest. Here’s a Cayenne Turbo crashing an off-road day with the Camden County Georgia Jeep Club, just gettin’ muddy like it’s no big deal.
This is no ordinary Porsche Cayenne S—it’s been kitted out with a mild lift,
meatier tires, under-body armor, snorkels and a lot of other trick gear
to race in Germany’s GORM Open Rally Raid. Has there ever been a more perfect Cayenne? I’m going to say no. It’s beautiful.
Sure, the livery on this Porsche Cayenne safety car for the Virgin Australian Supercars Championship looks like a glaring, embarrassing typo. But it could be the best marketing tactic around. If there are no other “saftey” cars out there, yours is certainly the best.
Most people know the Porsche Cayenne Turbo as the scourge of school drop-off zones and Starbucks drive-thrus everywhere. Finally, people are taking these things off the pavement and into what should be their natural territory: mud! Muck! Dirt! Grime! YES.
Look, Porsche, I’m one of your biggest fans, and I hate to see you go down a path of self-destruction. I care. I really do! But you really need to get clean, stop doing hard drugs and back away from this plan to have a “coupe” crossover with four doors and a squashed butt.
Most people would back up and come at the garage from a different angle, but I guess that’s not an option when one of your wheels is already broken off. The unlicensed 16-year-old driver was allegedly hiding the car after a hit-and-run, per CTV. So, what’s a few more scrapes on the door?
It’s miserable outside in a large chunk of the country right now, but shh. Hush, child. That’s okay. Even if you lack the vast expanse to lay down snow-nuts, we’ve got this strangely peaceful footage of a Porsche Cayenne drifting in the snow. Stare deep into the abyss of this b-roll and be at one with the cold.
Porsche hasn’t had nearly as many cars affected by Dieselgate as Volkswagen or Audi, but they’ve still got one car to fix: the Cayenne with the 3.0-liter diesel. And, according to a report by Reuters, it appears the Germans may have a solution.

The Cayenne is the SUV that allows Porsche to continue to build crazy sports cars but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a little guano itself. What do you need to know before you buy a Porsche Cayenne? Don’t worry, we’ll tell you everything right here in the Ultimate Buyer’s Guide.
Zhen Yin was reportedly zooming down a Jiangxi, China freeway on a drug bender when he slammed his Porsche Cayenne into the back of a semi-truck so hard his SUV got wedged under its bumper and dragged for some six miles while Yin was passed out.
If you are a Porsche fan and you weren't either in Austin at Circuit of the Americas this weekend or glued to the TV whenever coverage finally appeared, I have to question what you're doing with your life.
The 2015 Porsche Cayenne SUV now has a plug-in hybrid variant, borrows the Panamera's turbo V6 in "S" trim and gets a tweaked look, dominated by headlights that look like spider-eyes Porsche calls "floating LEDs."
