I have a CSH '12 that was a present and after 2500+ miles I find I like the power, high speed braking, and the mileage... I don't like the low speed braking where the transition from regen mode to pure brakes makes it hard to judge..

A wish!!! Those with S's or V6's who are claiming high mileage, please provide a screen shot of your Car -page 4/5 Screen, such as Blaine S above did with substantial miles.... Words are cheap... let's see some evidence of your claims...

2011 Hybrid - 22,000 miles :-)
Zero problems with the hybrid system, and if I had to do it all over again today, I would buy another. I wish this car was marketed as a high efficiency supercharged 6 as an alternative between the V6 and V8.

Blaine S-

As I mentioned, I didn't get a choice, but if I did, I'd probably also have gotten an S because I love the V8 rumble....

You want a Cayenne with great mileage - get the TDI once offered...

The problem with the TDI is it is slow..... 8.4 sec 0-60.... So, I am happy with most everything about the CSH except the low speed braking and motor sound.... It has good power and in Sport Mode, it is something else!

I like diesels, but with less horsepower, less torque, same mileage, and diesel pump costs vs. gas figured in, I wouldn't opt for the TDI if the base price was similar.
