Unveiled at the Porsche Festival of Dreams event, the Cayenne e-hybrid seamlessly integrates the extensive enhancements made to the third-generation Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) model, both aesthetically and functionally. To the casual observer, the Cayenne e-hybrid maintains an indistinguishable exterior from its ICE counterpart, with subtle distinctions such as neon green brake calipers and the e-hybrid badge on the fenders setting it apart.

Embracing the advancements of the new Porsche Driver Experience, the vehicle boasts a revamped display and control system, complemented by a dashboard-relocated gear lever to accommodate the redesigned center console.

The resultant plug-in hybrid powertrain delivers an impressive 463 hp and 650 Nm of torque, propelling the Cayenne e-hybrid from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.9 seconds, with a top speed of 254 km/h.

Looking ahead, the imminent establishment of the Porsche Center Manila, a state-of-the-art 15-story facility, promises an enhanced Porsche experience. This center will amalgamate showrooms, corporate offices, and service areas, accommodating future Porsche retail requirements and reinforcing the brand’s visual identity. Additionally, the facility will include a dedicated space for Porsche’s fully electric vehicles, underscoring the brand’s commitment to innovation and sustainability.
