MUNICH, GERMANY—Imagine every high-horsepower Porsche you’ve seen turned into an SUV. That’s the new Cayenne Turbo Coupe, with a staggering 1,139 hp and capable of zero-to-60 mph in just 2.4 seconds. Only the Taycan Turbo GT outperforms it.

Unlike its racing-inspired siblings, the Cayenne is meant for everyday use, offering both power and practicality. Its Formula E-derived motor technology ensures consistent performance, making it not only a beast but also road-legal.

The car’s 113 kWh battery pack allows for impressive range while maintaining a sleek fastback design. Porsche aims to balance luxury with performance in this latest flagship model.

For the average driver, does such power translate into daily utility? That's what this test drive sought to uncover, blending Munich’s city streets with some of its scenic highways.
