NEW ELECTRIC PORSCHE CAYENNE UNVEILED! JEEP RECON REVEALED & WAYMO EXPANDS (AGAIN)

EV Channels Review

This episode of Friday Charge covers significant EV news, with the Porsche Cayenne Electric taking center stage. The hosts highlight its impressive performance figures, particularly the Turbo variant's claimed 1,139 horsepower and rapid acceleration, alongside its 800-volt architecture and 108 kWh battery. Charging capabilities are also noted, with a claim of 10-80% in under 16 minutes at up to 400 kW. However, the dual-port charging setup (NACS for DC, J1772 for AC) is questioned for its practicality in the current transition phase. The interior design, featuring a unique vertically curved infotainment screen, is discussed, as are the high starting prices for both the base ($111,000) and Turbo ($165,000) models. While acknowledging the performance and charging potential, the reviewers express reservations about the dual-port system and the overall cost, deeming it a "perfect car on paper" but with a significant price tag.
