Porsche India has launched the Cayenne Coupe in India at Rs 1.31 crore. As the name suggests, it’s the sleeker, more bootylicious cousin of Porsche’s flagship performance SUV. Porsche is offering two variants of the Cayenne Coupe in India - Standard and Turbo. Have a look at the price list of each variant below:

Porsche Cayenne Coupe	Prices (ex-showroom India)
Cayenne Coupe	Rs 1,31,51,000
Cayenne Turbo Coupe	Rs 1,97,63,000

From the front, the Cayenne Coupe looks exactly like the standard SUV thanks to the use of the same LED headlamps, large air dams, and grille. The changes become obvious only when you move to the side and notice the Cayenne Coupe’s steeply raked roofline. It starts sloping down from the B-pillar and flows cleanly to the boot lid, giving it an air of sportiness. Further, flared wheel arches and the 20-inch wheels give it a meaty stance. At the rear, the Cayenne Coupe comes with two spoilers - the lower one rises up to 135mm at speeds above 90kmph for additional downforce. It also comes with connected LED tail lamps and a sporty bumper with dual-tip exhausts. 

Porsche offers the Cayenne Coupe with an optional lightweight sports package that adds plenty of carbon fibre trims inside-out and blacked-out elements for a sportier appearance. In terms of size, the Cayenne Coupe is longer by 13mm and is as wide as the standard model. Both models come with an identical wheelbase as well. However, the Cayenne Coupe is shorter by 20mm thanks to its sloping roofline. 

Inside, the Porsche Cayenne Coupe comes with Porsche’s latest dashboard design that was first seen in the new 911. The central console is dominated by a 12-inch infotainment while the gear lever is flanked by touch-based controls for functions like the climate control and drive modes. The instrument display is also similar to the 911 with an analogue rev counter flanked by digital screens. 

Noted features in the Cayenne Coupe include connected car technology, four-zone climate control, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a panoramic sunroof, Sports front seats with powered and ventilated functions, all-wheel steering wheel, a fixed panoramic sunroof, adaptive air suspension with Porsche Active Suspension Management, a head-up display as well as Porsche InnoDrive including adaptive cruise control. 

The Porsche Cayenne Coupe is offered in two variants - Standard and Turbo. The standard Cayenne Coupe packs a 3.0-litre V6 engine while the Turbo utilises a 4.0-litre V8 engine.

The Cayenne Coupe will lock horns with the Lamborghini Urus, Bentley Bentayga, and the Mercedes-AMG GLE 43 Coupe. We drove the Porsche Cayenne Coupe in France and you can read our detailed review here.
