Porsche Cayenne - Buying Advice / Engine Variants
Discussion
Hi All,
A long time lurker on the forum and looking for some advice.
I've been driving BMWs for the past 10 years with my last one being an X6 40d E71 (2012).
I'm considering a 2019+ Cayenne as I fancy a change from BMWs and don't fancy the issues with a Range Rover.
I'll be looking for one with as many options as possible (PASM/14-16 Way Seats and ideally Sport Design Kit etc.) but wanted people's opinions on the different engine variants.
I've always had diesels and probably would've gone for another but understand they stopped doing diesel in the Cayennes from 2018.
How is the economy in the 3.0 V6 and the Twin Turbo 2.9T? Has anyone experienced the E70/E71 BMWs for a direct comparison?
Am I right to disregard the e-Hybrid as I did read that they are very juicy when not running on the Hybrid Battery due to the weight of the battery's?

Thanks for the replies.
I think I'll have to drive the variants to see.
Only reason why I discounted the older shape (2016-2017) is just the inside feels a bit more dated to compare the newer shape although the 4.2 Diesel would be ideal.
Although saying that, I'm noticing petrol is 10p cheaper than diesel!
