Porsche has revealed a new all-electric version of its Cayenne Coupé, expanding its SUV range with a more performance-focused design and a trio of high-powered variants. The model made its global debut at the 2026 Beijing Auto Show.
The Cayenne Coupé Electric adopts a lower, more sloping roofline compared with the standard SUV, drawing inspiration from Porsche’s sports cars. While the overall dimensions remain similar, the revised profile reduces height slightly and improves aerodynamics, with a drag coefficient of 0.23.
That change contributes to a claimed driving range of up to 669 kilometres (WLTP), offering a modest improvement over the regular SUV version. Active aerodynamic features, including adjustable cooling flaps and a rear spoiler, are also used to enhance efficiency.

Three variants will be offered at launch, all using dual-motor electric drivetrains. The entry-level Cayenne Coupé Electric produces 300kW, rising to 325kW with overboost, and can accelerate from 0–100km/h in 4.8 seconds. The mid-range S version (above) increases output to 400kW (up to 490kW on overboost), cutting the sprint time to 3.8 seconds.
At the top of the range, the Cayenne Turbo Coupé Electric (below) delivers 630kW, with peak output reaching 850kW in launch mode. Porsche claims a 0–100km/h time of just 2.5 seconds for this flagship model.
Australian pricing has been outlined, with the base model starting from $173,600 before on-road costs, rising to $194,600 for the S and $272,100 for the Turbo.

Despite its sportier design, the Cayenne Coupé Electric retains much of the practicality of the standard SUV. Boot capacity ranges from 534 to 1,347 litres, with an additional front storage compartment, while a towing capacity of up to 3.5 tonnes is also available.
The new model is built on Porsche’s 800-volt electrical architecture, supporting DC fast charging at up to 390kW. Under ideal conditions, this enables rapid charging times, while AC charging of up to 22kW is also available.
Inside, the Cayenne Coupé Electric adopts a digital-focused layout similar to the SUV, with multiple screens and a driver-oriented interface. A new Lightweight Sport package is also available, reducing weight and adding performance-focused design elements.
The introduction of the electric Coupé marks a further expansion of Porsche’s EV line-up, as the brand continues to add battery-powered variants across its core model range.
