Pros: Nothing drives better at its price; tech is leading-edge and works well; unlimited customization and a plethora of performance versions Cons: More expensive than competitors; limited cargo space; you’ll be forking out big money for every last option The 2024 Porsche Cayenne is one of the best do-it-all machines in existence, and it also happens to be heavily updated for the 2024 model year.
It’s ultimately fairly simple whether you should or shouldn’t choose a Cayenne. If you’re mostly focused on luxury and the latest tech, a BMW X5, Mercedes-Benz GLE and many others will be a better buy. However, if the driving experience is paramount, then the Cayenne is worth every extra penny you spend over the competition.
The climate control panel in the center stack is totally new for 2024, too, and represents a simplification of the button-filled center stack Porsche used before. It’s a better laid-out climate system, but the execution is flawed. Pushing down on the icons provides haptic feedback, but the entire black trim piece moves with each “button” push, which comes across as cheap, especially for a Porsche.
The conventional Cayenne has no shortage of rear headroom, but the specs say there is only 27.2 cubic feet of space behind the raised back seat. That dips considerably to just about 22 cubic feet if you opt for an E-Hybrid variant. That's notably less than some of its closest competition like the BMW X5 or Mercedes-Benz GLE, but we suspect this overt difference is the result of Porsche using a different measurement technique than others.
There are three plug-in hybrid trims available for 2024, too. The entry-level one is the E-Hybrid, which consists of a 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 and an electric motor making a combined 463 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque. It comes standard with the Sport Chrono package and does the 0-60 mph run in 4.6 seconds. All hybrid Cayennes pack a 25.
The wildest Cayenne variant is the Turbo GT that favors raw track performance over any hybrid/green intentions. It houses a potent 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 that produces 650 horsepower and 626 pound-feet of torque, giving it a 0-60 mph time of 3.1 seconds – that’s almost a half second quicker than the Turbo E-Hybrid that has 79 extra horses. Shows you how much chopping weight from the Turbo GT helps.
