Photos taken today in Germany. Cars in transit for US market I think (orange side markers).
1 car in dark blue with clear rear light
1 car in white, looks like it is base cayenne
Awesome. Sooooo glad I got the sport design front bumper. That dark blue car looks like my car with different headlights and a Macan style rear. Taycan style rear. Taycan has the Cylon eye light. Macan's looks like a dogbone.

Are those new wheels? Look like Cayenne Sport Classic wheels, but with a weird angle to the spokes. Am I seeing things?
Am I reading this correctly? The hybrid battery here is 75% full with 69km range remaining?? So a full battery should have a ~92km (57mi) range???? 😯
Yes, Porsche has been saying 80 km (50 miles) of range with the E-Hybrid's 25.9-kWh battery pack. If you think about it, 26 kWh is about a little less than 1/3 the size of a Taycan battery pack (28%), and the Taycan yields about 250 miles (400 km) of range at 70 mph (110 km/hr), which would mean about 70 electric-only miles (110 km) of range for a 2024 E-Hybrid via a direct extrapolation. However, I assume that there's a lot of electric range loss in the E-Hybrids because of their electric motors being interlinked with the ICE drivetrain. I'm guessing that the 2024 E-Hybrid might get 35 miles (55 km) of range at 70 mph, but 50 miles (80 km) of range in non-highway urban stop-and-go traffic at speeds < 45 mph. One thing is for sure: a 26-kWh battery pack means that you can do a lot of serious local commuting in all-electric mode without the ICE ever coming on. But it still makes no sense to drive a PHEV at 70+ mph in all-electric mode on long road trips; EV driving is best at < 45 mph, and ICE driving is best at > 50 mph.
Like the 992 generation of the 911 which I didn't care for upon introduction, it grew on me. Although I don't care for it at the moment I suspect the Cayenne will be the same way. At the end of the day, there is nothing else for the money that provides the driving experience of Porsche.
The cross tourismo tail lights are so good to see, the new Cayenne taillights looks like a blend of macan + taycan which to me is a big NO. However I do like the headlamps of new Cayenne.
