With the expertise of the Formula E World Champion: The Porsche Cayenne Electric.

When it launches the Cayenne Electric, Porsche will not only bring another all-electric model series to the market – it will also transfer a piece of motorsport technology into series production. Numerous innovations are based directly on developments from Formula E, where Porsche is the reigning world champion in both the Teams’ and Manufacturers’ championships. With the Cayenne Electric, the sports car manufacturer is demonstrating that its path to more sustainable mobility does not begin on the drawing board, but on the racetrack.

The new Cayenne Electric benefits greatly from the sports car manufacturer’s experience in Formula E. Some of the technology in the fully electric SUV originate from the Porsche 99X Electric and sets standards in terms of efficiency and performance. Among other things, both cars use direct oil cooling of the electric motor and have a recuperation capacity of up to 600 kW. “Formula E is our development lab for the electromobility of tomorrow. This is where we gain valuable insights for our road-going sports cars,” says Dr Michael Steiner, Member of the Board of Management for Research and Development. “The new Cayenne Electric shows how quickly such a technology transfer takes place at Porsche and how relevant our commitment to the electric racing series is to series production.”
