2026 Beijing Auto Show: Porsche Debuts the 1,156 PS All-Electric Cayenne Turbo in Beijing

At the 2026 Beijing Auto Show (Auto China 2026) that opens today, Porsche finally takes the wraps off the highly anticipated All-Electric Cayenne Turbo. Codenamed "Electric", this new flagship SUV maintains the commanding silhouette of the Cayenne lineage while redefining performance within the luxury electric segment.

Exterior: Porsche EV Design DNA 

The new model adopts Porsche's latest EV design language, centered around the signature four-point LED daytime running lights (DRLs).

Active Aerodynamics: The front apron features vertical active shutters that intelligently modulate airflow for optimal cooling and aerodynamic efficiency.

Aggressive Stance: The SUV sits on massive 22-inch multi-spoke wheels framed by blacked-out wheel arches, housing Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) as standard equipment.

Rear Profile: A sharper, full-width LED light bar and a prominent rear diffuser emphasize its sporty vibe.

Interior: A Digital Cockpit with Tactile Precision

The cabin draws inspiration from the Taycan while elevating the sense of luxury.

Triple-Screen Array: The dashboard is dominated by a 14.6-inch curved digital instrument cluster, a 12.25-inch central touchscreen, and a 14.9-inch passenger display.

Augmented Reality: An optional 87-inch AR-HUD projects navigation data directly onto the driver's field of vision.

Tactile Ergonomics: Porsche has wisely retained physical switches for critical functions, ensuring intuitive operation and a premium haptic feel while driving.

Performance: 1,156 PS Beast 

The electric Cayenne arrives in Electric and Turbo Electric variants.

Turbo Electric: Delivers a staggering 857 PS (up to 1,156 PS with Launch Control) and 1,500 Nm of torque.

Acceleration: 0-100 km/h in just 2.5 seconds, with a quarter-mile time of 9.9 seconds.

Battery and Charging 

Equipped with a 114 kWh battery, the SUV supports a 10%-80% charge in just 16 minutes. It also features 11 kW wireless charging and a 600 kW energy recovery system derived from Porsche's Formula E program.

Editor's Take: Coming to Malaysia?

While the model currently on display is a China-spec version, we expect a swift rollout for our market. Given the historical pace of Porsche Malaysia, the all-electric Cayenne is highly likely to make its local debut in late 2026 or early 2027.
