The 2024 Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid is more powerful than ever

Porsche power while sipping gas - what's not to love?

Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid
Porsche wants 80 percent of its entire lineup to have fully electric motors by 2030 to meet the EV adoption target. So far, it has released only one fully electric model — the Porsche Taycan. However, it plans to introduce four new EV models to its lineup by 2026, including the Cayenne EV. Of course, Porsche will still offer hybrid models for those who love the high performance that comes with infusing a gasoline engine and an electric motor.

If you’re into SUVs or coupes, the 2024 Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid is more powerful than any Cayenne ever made. More succinctly, it’s engineered with a twin-turbocharged V8 engine that can produce 591 horsepower and an electric motor that adds an extra 174 horsepower. In total, the 2024 Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid is a mean machine with up to 729 horsepower and 700 lb-ft. of torque. This is way more power than the 2023 Turbo S E Hybrid.

On the race track, the 2024 Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid is capable of accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds. This makes it one of the fastest SUVs in the world. However, it’s still not fast enough to beat the Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT, which can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.1 seconds. Then again, it has more horsepower than the 2024 Cayenne Turbo GT — this means you can modify it to accelerate faster.

The 2024 Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid also comes with a 25.9 kWh battery. Porsche hasn’t revealed how many miles you should expect to drive using the battery, but if the current 2023 model offers 20 miles of EV-only range with a 14.1 kWh battery, the 2024 Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid should have at least 30 miles of EV-only range. Better yet, you should be able to charge the battery in less than 2.5 hours using a level 1 home charger.

Another cool thing about the upcoming Cayenne is that it features an adaptive air suspension system with two-valve and two-chamber technology to improve handling and comfort. All the other updates that were introduced in the 2024 Porsche Cayenne are also available in the 2024 Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid.

If you want the SUV model, pricing starts at $146,900 without the delivery fee. But if you prefer the 2024 Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid Coupe, it’s slightly more expensive by $4,500. Porsche says customers should expect delivery between May and June of 2024.

Renault's Alpine racing and sports car division and the Lapierre mountain bike company collaborated to create the 2024 Overvolt GLP III SE Alpine Edition, an aggressive, enduro-style electric mountain bike. The two French companies based the eMTB's color scheme on the Alpine A290 5-seater all-electric urban sportscar.

The GLP III SE isn't the first Alpine and Lapierre collaboration. Earlier this year, the two companies released the Aircode DRS SE, a limited-edition road bike that, like the GLP III SE, represents their shared vision of aggressive design that energizes riders to "Re-engage with the delights of cycling." Lapierre and Alpine have worked together since 2022 to share their mutual vision of design and high performance and to promote the French industry.

Why the GLC 350e range matters

People have different opinions about plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs). Some, like Lucid CEO Peter Rawlinson, believe that PHEVs might slow the adoption of fully electric vehicles (BEVs). On the other hand, Ford CEO Peter Farley thinks we need a mix of BEVs, hybrids, and gas-powered vehicles until battery costs decrease, making all-electric vehicles more affordable.
