Exploring the Trim Levels of the 2025 Porsche Cayenne: Customize Your Luxury SUV
As the 911 of SUVs, the 2025 Porsche Cayenne knows a thing or two about making you happy.
With good looks, superb handling on just about every surface, comfort, and practicality, this is the vehicle to get when school runs, cross-country getaways, and 0-60 in 5.7 seconds (and below) are a part of your routine.
Exploring the Trim Levels of the 2025 Porsche Cayenne
Cayenne
The Cayenne lineup begins with the model simply called the Cayenne. It’s powered by a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 that delivers 348 horsepower, a 0 to 60 time of 5.7 seconds, an EPA-estimated 19 mpg combined, and a towing capacity of 7,716 pounds when properly equipped. All-wheel drive is standard.
The promise of style and substance made by the exterior is kept inside. You’ll find high-quality materials everywhere, a solid build feel, and generous space for both passengers and cargo. The dashboard features up to three screens: a 12.3-inch central touchscreen, a 12.6-inch digital instrument cluster, and an optional 10.9-inch passenger-side display. Porsche says the latter can stream video content thanks to a clever filter that renders it invisible to the driver’s view.
Cayenne Coupe
This trim keeps most of what you get in the standard Cayenne, but the exterior has been reworked with a coupe-like styling. Interestingly, it’s a bit quicker to 60 mph than the Cayenne (5.4 seconds vs. 5.7), though cargo space drops from 27 cubic feet to nearly 21.
Cayenne S
The Cayenne S introduces a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 that produces 468 horsepower and 442 lb-ft of torque. Everything you’d expect from a proper V8 is here: a great-sounding exhaust note, strong acceleration (can sprint to 60 mpg in under 5 seconds), and a higher top speed (170 mph vs. 154).
Cayenne S Coupe
As the name implies, this is the coupe variant of the Cayenne S. Go for this if you want your V8 with a side of style.
Cayenne GTS
The Cayenne GTS gets the same V8 as the S models, but here, it has been massaged to push out 493 horsepower and 486 pound-feet of torque. That extra power, combined with a slightly lower ride height, translates to improved performance: 0 to 60 drops to 4.4 seconds, the quarter-mile time improves from 13.2 seconds to 12.8, and the top speed edges up to 171 mph.
Cayenne GTS Coupe
Want to wrap the Cayenne GTS’s ferocious performance in a sleeker, low-slung body? Get the Cayenne GTS Coupe.
Cayenne Turbo GT
650 horsepower. A 3.1-second 0-60 time. Big brakes. A uniquely tuned suspension. All of it and more comes together in the top-of-the-range Cayenne Turbo GT.
