USED BUYER'S GUIDE Porsche Cayenne Mk3

BY definition, there can’t be many class leaders, but over the years Porsche has produced more than its fair share of them. Most have been driver-focused sports cars, but when it turned its hand to an SUV (with the original Cayenne of 2002), it pulled a master stroke, even if many were dismayed by the company’s actions.

The Mk2 of 2010 was even better, and by the time the third-generation model was unveiled in 2017, more than 760,000 Cayennes had been sold around the world.

HISTORY

THE 335bhp Cayenne and 434bhp Cayenne S were unveiled in August 2017, using single-turbo 3.0-litre and twin-turbo 2.9-litre six-cylinder petrol engines respectively. Within weeks there was also a 542bhp Cayenne Turbo with a 4.0-litre V8. In spring 2019, a Coupé option was introduced alongside the regular SUV; all models were offered with the sleeker body.

There was also a series of plug-in hybrids starting with the 455bhp E-Hybrid in 2018; the 670bhp Turbo S E-Hybrid followed in 2019, then the 512bhp S E-Hybrid in 2023.

A facelifted Cayenne arrived in summer 2023, with a heavily updated dashboard, matrix LED headlights, a refreshed nose and extra driver-assistance systems.

EARLIER this year my colleague Tom Jervis quite rightly pointed out that car wheels are simply getting too big, which is somewhat consistent with another wheel that car makers seemingly can’t stop fiddling with: the steering wheel.
