Porsche Cayenne
Big on versatility and performance, the Cayenne comes in multiple trim levels in addition to offering SUV and Coupe body styles. Porsche’s larger SUV stands out with dynamic handling and available plug-in hybrid technology (built around a V6 or V8 depending on the model), which few competitors offer. Output can be as high as 730 hp, combined with an estimated 50 km of pure electric range. Most Cayennes carry a hefty price tag and are expensive to maintain, however.
