Porsche Cayenne Electric Stuns with Record-Breaking SUV Debut
The electric revolution just got a serious glow-up.
For young Malaysians who crave speed, sustainability, and sophistication, meet the Porsche Cayenne Electric — a pure electric SUV that isn’t just eco-conscious, it’s next-level iconic. Whether you’re a motorsport junkie or just looking for the ultimate flex on the road, this electrifying debut is setting a whole new benchmark.
With its record-breaking hillclimb and all-terrain practicality, this isn’t just a car — it’s a lifestyle upgrade.
Cayenne Electric: The New Standard in Electric SUVs
After two decades of redefining luxury SUVs, Porsche now steers into the electric age with a bang. The Porsche Cayenne Electric isn’t a compromise — it’s the future in overdrive.
Key performance wins:
- Record-breaker: Completed the historic Shelsley Walsh Hillclimb in just 31.28 seconds.
- Massive acceleration: Hit 18.3 meters in 1.94 seconds — on standard summer tires.
- Heavy-duty strength: Towing capacity of up to 3.5 tons, rivaling or beating fuel models.
“The Cayenne Electric combines everything Porsche stands for — speed, agility, and everyday usability — now in a sustainable, electrified package,” says Daniel Koh, EV Expert and Automotive Editor at EV Pulse Asia.
Porsche Active Ride: Handling Like a Dream
One of the most exciting upgrades is the introduction of Porsche Active Ride, a next-gen suspension system designed to deliver:
- Rock-solid balance when accelerating, braking, or cornering
- Comfort-sport balance that adapts in real time
- Even weight distribution across all four wheels
This tech ensures you’re not just fast — you’re in full control, no matter the terrain or traffic.
Everyday Ready: Luxury Meets Practicality
Beyond the track, the Cayenne Electric proves it’s more than just a high-performance machine. It’s surprisingly practical for daily life in the city — or kampung.
Highlights from its UK demo run include:
- Effortless towing: Hauled a 2-ton vintage car on a trailer with ease
- Beefed-up structure: Reinforced body and thermal management for real-world durability
- Certified strength: One of the few pure EVs officially certified for heavy-duty towing
“Many electric SUVs look great but fall short on utility. The Cayenne Electric delivers both luxury and load,” notes Gabriela Jílková, simulator & development driver for the TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team.
