2020 PORSCHE CAYENNE COUPE REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The Porsche Cayenne Coupe S is presented as a more stylish, albeit more expensive, alternative to the standard Cayenne. Reviewers highlight its aggressive, muscular design and cohesive styling compared to competitors, noting the lower roofline and wider rear fenders. While the 2.9L twin-turbo V6 engine producing 434 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque is praised for its free-revving nature and performance, it's pointed out that the Cayenne S Coupe's torque is less than the previous diesel model. Practicality is a key consideration, with the sloping roofline compromising rear headroom (though mitigated by lowered seats) and significantly reducing cargo space compared to the standard Cayenne. The interior design is debated, with a preference expressed for the older button-heavy console over the new glass panel. The fixed glass roof, while standard, doesn't open, and the optional carbon roof can feel claustrophobic. Ultimately, the Cayenne Coupe S is deemed a purchase driven primarily by style, with a substantial price premium over the regular Cayenne, leading to a verdict that it's best suited for those who prioritize aesthetics and can afford the extra cost, rather than those seeking maximum utility.
