There are obviously several videos to choose from when manufacturers do events. Your videos are a cut above the rest in terms of quality and useful information. Well done Tom!
Couple of quick points. North America spec'd vehicles get a spare (the Euro spec units don't). Also, the new LED lighting system (optional) is bananas. It' "mutes" out sections of illumination to avoid blinding other drivers while still maximizing the illumination to other areas. It really is amazing (but pricey, about $7k in Canada).
I have the Matrix LED in my current cayenne in Canada, never used the feature, lol. I want to know the difference between the current and the new HD, is it just more pixels? BTW, not $7K in Canada, it's in premium plus package that you get a lot more than just the light.
I had no problem with the ride quality but the roads were pretty smooth. Hard to tell what the air suspension was doing in tandem with the standard adaptive suspension. For those that really do off roading it would be good to have the extra ground clearance. I wouldn't need it and personally wouldn't want the complexity. It's my understanding the Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control will do more to reduce body roll than air suspension.
Another nice review. I especially appreciate the disclosure about running footage at 16:08 - was wondering where there are joshua trees on Encinal Canyon!
Great Video Tom as always. I am watching from Germany you reviewing a german car which is pretty cool. Thank you for doing such a great job through all the years
An AC vent blowing on the phone while doing the induction charging so simple no other company thought it was a good enough ideal to do it lol. Luxury doesn’t need to flashy just functional
I like it. Good review. Good looking rig. I don't like German menu laden technology. Prefer Acuras somewhat simpler interfaces. The MDX won't run with this bad boy though.
Awesome review. Appreciate your honesty and the red light green lights are on point. IMO I think the more comparable model would be the GLE 63 AMG as opposed to the GLE 53 AMG. Given the fact that the 63 is a V8 turbo and the 53 is a in-line six turbo with a small electric motor. Oh what a travesty that you had to “settle” for In-N-Out!!!! I hope you didn’t eat it in the Press car. 😂
Don't like where the gear selector is in the new one, also Porsche did away with the twisting ignition switch with a push button, that's insulting to Porsche's racing heritage.
Sounds like a personal decision to me. Will you use the extra capability of the GTS? How much cheaper is it? The new model has some extra refinement and tech that I find valuable. And the new CarPlay makes things especially easy to keep eyes on the road. Also, the new one comes with a full warranty, which considering Porsche service costs, is an appealing thing. Best of luck. Hard decision.
@@DrivenCarReviews Thanks Tom for the prompt reply! Really appreciated for your advice. I am living in Australia. The new Cayenne S coupe costs 190k Aud with options I wanted plus the stamp duty (on-road tax), is going to be around 250-270k Aud (similar to your video, I will have red leather, 18-way seats, pdcc, ptv, Cayon paint， red two-tone smooth leather package, etc). Alternatively, if I go with a pre-owned 21/22 Cayenne GTS with 10-20,000 km will cost in between 220-240k on-road （including all taxes）. PS: I've been driving a BMW X5 40i for three years now, feeling not fast/fancy enough. I was looking into GLE53 but it's even slower than the X5 and drives like a boat which is not what I expected. After a few years of hard work, I would love to treat myself and just want to get a good SUV/car before too late. Sadly, the Panamera or S-class is slightly too long for my garage and the Macan GTS is too small for me (I'm 6 foot 1）
Just from looking at the patent for the power hitch, I would say that NHTSA wouldn't approve it because it fails to be permanently affixed to certain hard points as required by our laws. That pretty screw drive mechanism it uses to swing is actually where all of the torque of towing is concentrated rather than being distributed to hard points.
US requires higher tongue weight which allows better stability at higher speeds and thus a more robust tow hitch. Euro countries also have lower speed limits for vehicles with a trailer. Different mechanisms for different rules and regulations. Knowing this, I bet most US owners who tow would prefer the stability vs a stealth hitch.
Please, shut up, dude! Here in Germany and Europe almost every car manufacturer has such a power hitch system for SUVs. There have never been any issues with such a system. You are talking crap! The same goes for the most sophisticated LED matrix lights, which you will find in German premium vehicles. BMW laser light, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen and Porsche LED Matrix systems, like this one in the new Cayenne, are blowing everything out of the water. 600 meters of pure lighting sensation for a much safer driving at night!! American cars with their old crappy light systems are totally outfashioned compared to the advanced German head light systems! The new Cayenne is class leading with its LED matrix system. The USA is fucking oldfashioned. Your totally stupid "...but the NHTSA wouldn't approve mimimimi..." claims are fucking bullshit, dude! Americans are ridiculously oldfashioned in many of these very simple things compared to Europe, period!
The new Cayenne is an great jump forward, special on the electronic equipment. The new digital Driver Display and the new Infotainment System, not only an Touchscreen, no you can some buttons and Control Dial!! Amazing!
The list provided by Porsche says "5510 22" Exclusive Design Sport Wheels in high gloss black" . No sure if it translates directly to the American configurator. Hope that helps John.
I wonder if those electric tow hooks are banned so that people in the USA will by more trucks. When I lived in Germany, people towed large and small trailers behind their vehicles to camp, move house, pull boats and all sorts of things. Only American service people had pickups.
I love Porsche, but at the end of the day... I picked the RX500h... reliability... resale value, Lexus service etc... Love the Cayenne but if I optioned all the things... it would be insane
Good choice. I like Porsche as well. I was at my local porsche dealer with a friend who was looking at a used car. There was a porsche 911 in the showroom. It was a nicely optioned Carrera S. The salesman was upfront about it that they marked it it plus with the options it was close to 180k. Even he shook his head
It is all nice and dandy to use small icons on a touch screen when the vehicle does not move; try doing it in motion, especially with sweaty fingers or wearing gloves. Can one even see these icons without squinting? I bet Porsche's customers all have Lasik done. As for the Porsche quality, does it have critical components like the intake manifold still made of papier-mâché, or they have switched to metal parts after all? The sticker price is only the first installment, then one will be paying through the nose for the service, parts and repairs.
Did you quote the 0-60 correctly? 4.5 sec??? V8? Doesn’t the SQ5 do it in 4.7 sec with the 3.0 V6 Turbo? It’s interesting how the back seat mechanism and trunk view loon the same on the SQ5. Even the rear wiper looks the same. Why so many similarities for much less?
It's almost like the Cayenne weighs 450-500 lbs more with significantly better aerodynamics, or something... While you're learning about how weight affects acceleration you can google "VAG MLB platform" and get back to us once you realize they share the same platform and many of the same parts as a result.
Wait did you say that this Cayenne S, which began at $98k, was optioned to $175k? Also, did you say the sweet spot for the Cayenne S price-wise is about $135k? I’m sorry, you’re saying this vehicle is so excellent that it needs almost $40k in options to hit the “sweet-spot”, especially after talking about how it comes with more standard options? That is just insane.
Many of the options at $175K are superfluous choices that do little to the everyday use experience. Take $10K off for carbon ceramic brakes (that aren't even available in the US). Many people don't like sunroofs, delete that. Color matched seatbelts are an unneeded $660 option. Different seats that are still terrific would eliminate 5 grand. I could care less about Race Tex headliner, soft close doors and puddle light projectors. Boom. A high performance vehicle that looks great and still has air suspension, Sport Chrono, rear axle steering and Torque Vectoring + is under $130K. And here's the thing, many people wouldn't fully appreciate those performance options. So the difference between a $130K version and one that's lightly optioned at say $105K might go unnoticed to some. And before you say $105K is a lot of money (and yes it is) know that a Jeep Wagoner can be optioned to over $120K. I'd personally MUCH rather have the Porsche.
@@DrivenCarReviews Appreciate you responding, and yes, it’s good to get some input on the actual option utility! Sticker shock on vehicles like this is hard for me to comprehend sometime, and I’m clearly not Porsche’s market; I think the issue is that the entire automobile industry has started to follow the example of companies like Porsche and BMW, offering more options, a higher base MSRP (recognizing that some of this is due to inflation), and making it so that you really cannot find a base model on a lot.
Lll at him I’m claiming the average income of a cayenne driver is $400,000!! What? More like $150-200 people earning $400,000 are driving rolls Royce, Ferrari and Lamborghini
Porsche produces some amazing performance vehicles. However, they keep increasing the prices until most easily shoot past $100,000. I think a prudent prospective owner might consider the pre-owned vehicles unless you make $400,000.
Tom, I have been following you since your NYT days. But I have to say it’s getting difficult to spend time watching your reviews. Electric/hybrid? I totally get that. But when you go months between car reviews….you know, I mean actual cars….it gets tough…I don’t care about 3rd rows or tailgate heights (unless it’s an estate/station wagon or ‘shooting brake’….I am starting to trend more over to ‘car wow’, or ‘throttle house’….they still think there is a market for ‘cars’
Tom, when you talk about the fact that Porsche paid for you to travel and review their car, you say it like you are doing something wrong or that it's something to be ashamed about. Your voice doesn't sound right to me. Dude, they pay for everyone to come to see their cars. Why are you acting like you are doing something wrong doing your job? It's not like the car is a piece of crap and you praised it because they paid for your trip. You aren't doing anything that everyone else isn't doing. They paid for TFLCar. They paid for Alex on Autos. They paid for Redline Reviews. You do unbiased reviews that look phenomenal (especially on 4K TVs). No one will ever accuse you of praising a car because you got a free trip. It's okay to disclose that Porsche or any other manufacturer hosted your trip; just don't do it with that tone in your voice.
4th Porsche Cayenne, have 10 other Porsches running. The interior of the new Cayenne is a PLASTIC NIGHTMARE. How dare they screw up the cockpit with such cheap plastic sh..It’s not even worthy of an “Audi” label…..What were they thinking at Porsche, fitting out their 165.000 us$ car with such a crappy interior. Look at the door handle, I don’t think you can get anything cheaper and its hollow on the underside. The gear lever is invisible and not lighted, thecwindshield wiper control gets in the way, the steering wheel is only manual adjust and is worse than my son’s plastic Microsoft steering wheel, full leather interior means cheap plastic shells on the backside of the seats with some cheap nettong as a document holder…. Can go on forever. It’s a DISGRACE. My former Cayenne was perfect and opulent now the made a VW out of it.
Who exactly buys Porsche's at such insane and ridiculous prices? They are somehow more expensive than Mercedes vehicles, hell, every other German automaker. No wonder I barely see them on the road, or just not as many of them as other Germany luxury brands. The price makes no sense, especially for a base car. Base car at $82,000. Seriously! At that money for a base, you might as well go for a G-Wagon, a Range Rover, an X7 or an Escalde. Totally overpriced vehicles. Imagine paying $175K for this SUV🤣🤣🤣
Porsche quality is one reason people get these over the competition. And as for the price, lots if not most people that buy these cars don't really look at prices, they buy what they want and money is secondary.
@@bzdtemp Their quality is exceptional. I just don't know if the quality warrants what they are asking though. It seems it's quality over value with Porsche. A base Mercedes Maybach GLS SUV starts at $170,000. Somehow, Porsche is asking $175K for a fully loaded Cayenne. I highly doubt a fully loaded Cayenne is of higher quality than a GLS Maybach or an S-class base, which starts at 114,500. In the mass market vehicle industry, Mercedes is regarded as the pinnacle of quality, not Porsche. Another example is the recently resigned Range Rover, which starts at 106,500. Can you honestly say that a Porsche Cayenne has higher quality than a Range Rover ? I doubt it. Porsche may have better reliability. But I doubt their offerings are of higher quality than those of Mercedes or Range Rover. I've been inside of a 2022 cayenne. A colleague of mine drives a 2023 Range Rover which I have driven as well. I can say with confidence that the range Rover is of superior quality both inside and out. Porsche builds excellent quality vehicles. I just think they price gouge their customers by overpricing their offerings.
I would buy a Porsche for any amount. As long as I get the quality that I need. Their engineering is amazing. They have been doing that for years now period
LOL. Elizabeth Holmes reference. This is why we love you Tom. 🤣
There are obviously several videos to choose from when manufacturers do events. Your videos are a cut above the rest in terms of quality and useful information. Well done Tom!
Yes if Savage Geese and Alex on Autos had a baby it would be this channel 😀👍🏼
Seems more like a gushy fan boy to me.
"The price spiral begins at..." 😅 Tom certainly knows Porsche ! 😊 My first was a 1989 944 and I think my next will be a 1974 914....
Tom say it over and over again. I have never seen any SUV this nice in my opinion. It has been my favorite since the second Generation.
Haha that joke about Elizabeth Holmes" deep voice was perfect, you're a legend Tom :)

It' "mutes" out sections of illumination to avoid blinding other drivers while still maximizing the illumination to other areas. It really is amazing (but pricey, about $7k in Canada).
Also, the full matrix LED headlights will not be offered on USA spec vehicles because of our dumbshit regulations.

@@henrystevens6023 I'm in Canada and we have the matrix feature.
Isn’t that a common feature on German car brands for at least a decade? I assume it wasn’t available in NA yet?
Many thanks for the confirmation on the wheels ,
By the way how did they ride -and did Air suspension help.
I had no problem with the ride quality but the roads were pretty smooth. Hard to tell what the air suspension was doing in tandem with the standard adaptive suspension. For those that really do off roading it would be good to have the extra ground clearance. I wouldn't need it and personally wouldn't want the complexity. It's my understanding the Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control will do more to reduce body roll than air suspension.
the best car reviews in the biz, and maybe my favorite youtuber overall. thanks Tom!
Sick burn on Holmes.

How would you compare the new S and the old GTS?
From the beginning shot i say 5he rear wiper in the weong place. I was waiting for Tom's comment but none

V8 not coming to Europe, sad.
throwing shade at Elizabeth Holmes (amusing) ... great review as always.
Awesome review. Appreciate your honesty and the red light green lights are on point.
IMO I think the more comparable model would be the GLE 63 AMG as opposed to the GLE 53 AMG. Given the fact that the 63 is a V8 turbo and the 53 is a in-line six turbo with a small electric motor.
Oh what a travesty that you had to “settle” for In-N-Out!!!!
I hope you didn’t eat it in the Press car. 😂
Just like the Taycan I’m sure a hood over the instrument cluster is optional, no?
I've not seen an optional hood from Porsche for Taycan. I don't think it would need one.
Very impressed with your prompt reply and your kind advice - much appreciated Tom.
Great review, Tom! This is a beautiful machine 🎉
A true knock out!!! I love it
Appreciate the review. When will these go on sale in the US? This is the spec I want, minus about $60k in options.
US car regulations leave me baffled at times. The electronic hitch would be much appreciated along with new headlight technology.
They only think I hate that the Porsche Cayenne S platinum edition doesn’t have seat massager they don’t provide long steering wheel
Don't like where the gear selector is in the new one, also Porsche did away with the twisting ignition switch with a push button, that's insulting to Porsche's racing heritage.
Without the dash hood, wouldn't glare be an issue?
Looks incomplete without it. I hate it.
It's not a problem. it remains bright and sharp. You'll see more of it on all cars.
What a machine!❤❤❤ I can't wait to check one out.
Do you think my German Shedder Dog would like this?
Why get rid of the hooded binnacle? And again no rear bumper.
I missed evil twin… 😅
simply the best Suv mates , the king ❤
Looking forward to the next Macan, as well.
Me too, especially the electric version.
@@DrivenCarReviewsThere will ONLY be an electric version.
Hi Tom, Would you recon a brand new Cayenne S fully optioned or just grab a preowned 21/22 GTS at a cheaper price?
Sounds like a personal decision to me. Will you use the extra capability of the GTS? How much cheaper is it? The new model has some extra refinement and tech that I find valuable. And the new CarPlay makes things especially easy to keep eyes on the road. Also, the new one comes with a full warranty, which considering Porsche service costs, is an appealing thing. Best of luck.

Just from looking at the patent for the power hitch, I would say that NHTSA wouldn't approve it because it fails to be permanently affixed to certain hard points as required by our laws.

At that money for a base, you might as well go for a G-Wagon, a Range Rover, an X7 or an Escalde. Totally overpriced vehicles. Imagine paying $175K for this SUV🤣🤣🤣
Porsche quality is one reason people get these over the competition.
And as for the price, lots if not most people that buy these cars don't really look at prices, they buy what they want and money is secondary.
@@bzdtemp Their quality is exceptional. I just don't know if the quality warrants what they are asking though. It seems it's quality over value with Porsche. A base Mercedes Maybach GLS SUV starts at $170,000. Somehow, Porsche is asking $175K for a fully loaded Cayenne. I highly doubt a fully loaded Cayenne is of higher quality than a GLS Maybach or an S-class base, which starts at 114,500. In the mass market vehicle industry, Mercedes is regarded as the pinnacle of quality, not Porsche. Another example is the recently resigned Range Rover, which starts at 106,500. Can you honestly say that a Porsche Cayenne has higher quality than a Range Rover ? I doubt it. Porsche may have better reliability. But I doubt their offerings are of higher quality than those of Mercedes or Range Rover. I've been inside of a 2022 cayenne. A colleague of mine drives a 2023 Range Rover which I have driven as well. I can say with confidence that the range Rover is of superior quality both inside and out. Porsche builds excellent quality vehicles. I just think they price gouge their customers by overpricing their offerings.
I would buy a Porsche for any amount. As long as I get the quality that I need. Their engineering is amazing. They have been doing that for years now period
@@baroneleve1196 lol the worst Porsche in history is of better quality compared to any Range/Land Rover product, cmon...
@@patrickelrafih Range rover has great quality. Just not reliability.
