Porsche has launched the standard SUV and Coupe variants of the new Cayenne.
It gets a facelifted front-end and a redesigned interior with new features.
Despite the extensive changes, the prices are up by a relatively modest Rs 10 lakh.
Both the Coupe and SUV will get E-Hybrid plug-in hybrid variants as well.
The SUV’s bookings are already open, but the prices of the E-Hybrid variants are yet to be announced.
The new Porsche Cayenne was globally unveiled earlier this month, and already, it has been launched in India. The carmaker has updated the prices of the standard-spec Cayenne SUV and Cayenne Coupe, with the E-Hybrid variants also listed (their prices are yet to be announced). We suspect more powerful variants to be brought here as well on a phase-wise basis.

The new Cayenne SUV is around Rs 10 lakh more expensive than its predecessor.
However, the Cayenne Coupe’s prices have only increased by around Rs 7 lakh.
The prices of the E-Hybrid variant and other performance models will be revealed later.
Porsche’s new performance SUV has extensively reworked front-end styling with Taycan-inspired headlights and a large grille flanked by similarly massive air dams. Its profile and rear-end styling is largely similar to the model it replaces, except for the fact that it gets tweaked tail lamps and rear bumper along with new wheel options.
There’s a lot more than meets the eye with the new Cayenne. It’s almost all new inside, with a redesigned dashboard with three screens – a digital driver’s display, a centre infotainment screen and a passenger-side infotainment screen.
