Unlike the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid, with which pairs the same powertrain with an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, the Cayenne versions employ a more traditional eight-speed torque convertor automatic that Porsche says is better suited for towing.

The Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid Coupe has six driving modes that make use of the electric motor in different ways, from full electric to prioritizing charging to maximum performance.

The hybrid Cayenne's adaptive air springs make for a comfortable and stable ride, as well as offering six ride heights for navigating various terrains and steep driveways.

Rear-wheel steering is available as an option on all Cayenne models. It reduces the vehicle's turning radius from 40 to 38 feet while also improving high-speed stability.

The Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid Coupe is a big vehicle, but it's no cube van. There's only 18 cubic feet of cargo room behind the rear seats, which is five cubes less than the conventional Cayenne SUV.

Rear passengers in the Coupe sit 1.2 inches lower than in the standard long-roof Cayenne to maintain rear headroom levels.

We expect the Coupe version to closely mimic the straight-line performance of the Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid SUV, which can dash to 60 mph in 3.2 seconds and cover the quarter-mile in 11.5 seconds at 121 mph.

The Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid Coupe is a heavyweight, but its $11,570 Lightweight Sport package can drop a claimed 70 pounds from its overall curb weight. More importantly, it snags a specially trimmed interior with snazzy houndstooth upholstery.
