2024 Porsche Cayenne S

The 2024 Cayenne is Porsche's midsize luxury SUV, offered as a five-seat crossover with a range of gas and plug-in hybrid powertrains. It competes with the BMW X5, Mercedes-Benz GLE, and Range Rover Sport, blending sporty handling with everyday usability. The Cayenne drives with remarkable agility for its size, with sharp steering and strong brakes that make it feel smaller than it is. Inside, the cabin is impeccably built with premium materials, a clean dashboard layout, and supportive seats that remain comfortable on long trips. Standard tech includes a 12.3-inch touchscreen, digital instrument cluster, and a suite of driver assists; hybrid models add an EV mode for silent city driving. That 4.0L V8 makes 468 horsepower and 442 lb-ft of torque, routed through an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive, and returns 17 mpg combined. The S rides on steel springs with Porsche Active Suspension Management, which firms up the dampers in Sport mode for sharper body control.
