Porsche adds the all-electric Cayenne Coupe to its lineup.

Porsche plans to start selling the all-electric Cayenne Coupe in late summer. This is the latest sign that the German automaker still sees market demand for EVs.

Unlike the existing coupe, the Cayenne Coupe EV, which has four doors, will join several other electric variants of the SUV, including the base Cayenne Electric, Cayenne S Electric and Cayenne Turbo Electric, when it launches later this year. After all, Porsche loves its variants.

And it may be the most successful. When Porsche launched the coupe version of the gasoline-powered Cayenne in 2019, it took just one year for the sportier crossover SUV version to account for 20% of sales within the Cayenne lineup. Five years later, the coupe model will account for 40 percent of Cayenne sales, according to Porsche. In some markets, coupes account for more than 90%.

That said, the numbers suggest the all-electric Cayenne Coupe is a worthy investment despite its six-figure price tag.

The Cayenne Coupe Electric (the official brand) will not replace its gasoline-powered or hybrid siblings, unlike the Porsche Macan compact SUV, which will be sold only as an EV after this year.

A Porsche spokesperson said the Cayenne Coupe EV will be sold with other fuel variants beyond 2030. This could generate valuable data for Porsche about which flavor of the Cayenne Coupe consumers actually want to buy, and whether this electric model is the most popular. (The added front trunk space alone may have an impact on some buyers, not to mention gas prices.)

But those questions won’t be answered until the Cayenne Electric, Cayenne S Electric, Cayenne Turbo Electric and Cayenne Coupe Electric go on sale globally later this year (about nine months after the EV versions were first revealed).

When the Cayenne Coupe EV goes on sale, it will be available in three variants: base version, S Coupe and Turbo Coupe. (If you think that’s a lot, check out how many versions of the flagship Porsche Taycan EV there are.)

The Cayenne Coupe Electric starts at $113,800, excluding $2,350 delivery. The Cayenne S Coupe Electric is priced at $131,200, and the Cayenne Turbo Coupe Electric is priced at $168,000. Of course, consumers can spend more by adding options like a lightweight sport package that includes a carbon roof, performance tires, and motorsports-inspired interior features.

For that kind of money, consumers can get plenty of horsepower and torque packed inside a crossover body with a sloping roof line reminiscent of the iconic 911. All variants of the Coupe EV come with an 800-volt powertrain, air suspension, and a shared roof design featuring a new windshield and adaptive rear spoiler. The Cayenne Coupe EV is also equipped with the North American Charging Standard Port (NACS) popularized by Tesla and an additional AC charging port.

From here, some specifications will change depending on which version the consumer purchases. The base Coupe EV produces up to 435 horsepower and 615 pound-feet of torque, has a top speed of 143 mph, and can go from zero to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds.

For those who aren’t satisfied, there are two compelling options that push those performance specs even further. The top-of-the-line turbo version produces up to 1,139 horsepower and 1,106 pound-feet of torque. It comes with the Tesla Model S Plaid, Lucid Air Sapphire, and Porsche Taycan Turbo GT. The turbo version has a top speed of 162 mph and can go from 0 to 60 mph in an eye-catching 2.4 seconds.

Porsche has not released an EPA estimate for the range this coupe EV will deliver on a single charge. However, early real-world testing is consistent with other Cayenne electric variants reaching around 360 miles. Of course, range could be reduced by about 10 percent if coupe EV buyers choose larger tires that create greater rolling resistance and require the battery to work harder.
