While only base models of both are currently available, Porsche India has also listed the E-Hybrid models on its website albeit without the prices. Here’s a break-up of the prices of the Porsche Cayenne facelift:
| Porsche Cayenne prices | |
|---|---|
| Model | Price |
| Cayenne | Rs 1.36 crore |
| Cayenne Coupe | Rs 1.42 crore |
Porsche Cayenne facelift exterior
Porsche has given the third-gen Cayenne a subtle makeover that’s highlighted by a refreshed front fascia with a resculpted bonnet and a new look for the matrix LED headlights. The Cayenne gets an option of 12 standard colours and 24 alloy wheel options ranging from 20 inches to 22 inches.
At the back, it still has a lightbar connecting the tail-lamps but the shape of its housing and the LED elements in the tail-lamps has been slightly altered. The rear of the Cayenne also gets a slight nip and tuck as the number plate housing has been moved from the tail-gate to the bumper.
Porsche Cayenne facelift interior
Arguably the biggest change in the Cayenne is in its interior, which now features a Taycan-like design with a triple-screen dashboard layout. It gets a curved, 12.6-inch digital instrument cluster, a 12.3-inch touchscreen in the centre and a 10.9-inch touchscreen for the passenger (available as an option).
Other changes include the Taycan-like digital instrument cluster (with up to seven different views), a new steering wheel, a dash-mounted drive selector and a redesigned centre console.
Porsche Cayenne facelift powertrains
As mentioned above, only the base models of the Cayenne and Cayenne Coupe are currently available, and they are powered by a 353hp, 500Nm 3.0-litre, twin-turbocharged V6 petrol engine mated to an 8-speed automatic gearbox.
The E-Hybrid models share the same V6 engine but in conjunction with the e-motor, producing 470hp. Its 25.9kWh battery helps it achieve an electric-only range of up to 90km and the 11kW on-board charger fills the battery in around 2.5 hours.
Porsche mentioned that the high-performance Cayenne Turbo GT will not be sold in India, as well as Europe, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore. The updated Turbo GT now produces 659hp, 19hp more than the previous model. It can still achieve the 0-100kph run in 3.3 seconds but now its top speed has increased to 305kph.
Porsche Cayenne facelift rivals
The highest-selling model for Porsche India in 2022 rivals the likes of the Maserati Levante (Rs 1.49 crore-1.64 crore) and Range Rover Sport (Rs 1.64 crore-1.84 crore). On the other hand, the Cayenne Coupe competes with the Audi Q8 (Rs 1.07 crore-1.43 crore).
