Kevin, These reviews are great for the used car market buyer keep up the great work.

I have a 2011 Cayenne S and absolutely love it. Mine is the 4.8 NA V8 and has almost every available option. A $93k sticker on a $62k base (S) car. With PASM, Air suspension, and the SportEdition 21’s on the car handles every bit as good as a nice sports sedan. The tuning and calibration of the Cayenne is just unmatched. I have had the vehicle to an indicated 159 multiple times with no issues (and often cargo). Plus having all the little luxury goodies like vented seats and extended leather really add to the experience. They’re a good deal used and generally more reliable than its competitors. Cayennes are often driven well over 250k miles with no serious issues. Wearables obviously occur (and they’re often VAG shared parts) but for the most part the fundamentals are super stout. They’re also surprisingly capable off road. Have had mine in dirt, mud, gravel, and even waded some flooded roads (2ft or so) and it did really well! The air suspension raises it so high and the 4WD system works really well with all season tires. Reminds me of a Subaru type vehicle off-road. Rally style. But what’s even more satisfying is driving down a nice backroad after mudding and putting the car from off road to sport mode. Completely changes the vehicle, goes from a rally truck to a Panamera. The range from sport to off-road is like 3 inches or so. It’s a significant difference. Plus the body roll goes from a softly sprung vehicle to rock solid over bumps. It’s really the perfect one car for everything, and at sub $20k they’re definitely under appreciated.

Just when I need a review before pulling trigger for the exact same model same year. Thanks so much, your channel is growing big time. Congratulations!

Your a natural with these car reviews. Keep it up man!

Would love to see a review of the diesel Cayenne as well!

Does anyone have any experience with these older Cayenne's needing hybrid battery replacements?

I love your reviews, keep up the good work👍

Great review Kevin! I watched your review yesterday of the 15 Lexus GS Fsport. I’m looking for another car within the next 6 months to a year. I’m really interested in the 2013-2015 Lexus RX450h. Can you review that car if you can come across it or the non hybrid version of it?

I’m looking at this exact year and model, I’m just a little worried about the reliability of the hybrid version. Any thoughts or insights?

I think the 958.1 is more reliable than the 958.2 even though the 958.2 performs better with more range and the 958.1 is really just a mild hybrid. The cost for the 958.1 battery is $2500 and generally lasts 100k miles. But the 958.2 looks a lot better in the rear. The best compromise might be to get a 958.1 and do a bodykit facelift to the 9y0 version with 19inch lightweight wheels with factory CCB so they fill in better and perform a bit better. You can tune it with aftermarket csf heat exchangers and do a dual pulley upgrade and get like 0-60 in 5 flat. A larger throttle body like the APR ultra charger will add even more and tune it on E85; should be a fun car for one of the cheapest Porsches you can get.

"the most mind blowing vehicle in the Porsche lineup", ok good review, but what??

Please, test the turbo version of this generation of cayenne.

Another great in depth review. When I drive the 2020 cayenne I think how does an SUV handle this? It's a really good vehicle that does just about everything

I have this car! Mines only at 35k miles but I've been getting "hybrid system failure" warnings. I have to stop and restart the car when it happens. Probably time for an update soon!

show me 15miles EV range? my 15 s-e hybrid with bigger battery 10.7kwh, barely make 15 miles, only in summer

since you found the porsche gold mine over there , ask for a 911 gt3 rs and give me an eargasm :D

kevin let me ask you a question, is a porsche MACAN worth it? the back space is like horseshit but its a porsche (for flex), would you chose a rx450h or a porsche macan and why?

i recently found out the engine is right out of an audi s4/s5 of that era

i love the interior and the styling is timeless! No wonder there are a hundred k miles on it! Nice review kevin

Hi Kevin, i thought the cayenne S was the V8 and not the V6

I love you videos quite alot and all the best to you man don't take this as an offense just saying please stay to the point you talk too much about stuff people just dont care about that much nobody wants to know how it drives in such detail just give an idea of how it has held up over the years and keep it to the point bro and believe me you will get alot more watch time doing that again i am not a hater just saying

Found a 2016 one in my town for a good price. Debating on getting it. Scared about the battery tho. Any advice? The warranty is still good for another 20,000 miles or 2 more years. Helpppp

Love to own one but Wonder how much money was put in for repairs??? Repair cost is the scary part of the whole thing.

Give 2 reasons to not buy this vehicle? Except budget for sure 😅

the best handing SUV is the alfa romeo SUV, i think its the stelvio

I had a 2014 cayenne s hybrid 78000 mile. When drive about 30 minutes the hybrid warning light come on any HELP.

this car is a money pit, supercharger engine at 100k miles and a hybrid at 100k miles made by Porsche. Engine won't make it passed 150k and a bunch of expensive hybrid stuff that might need to be fixed

Don’t you have a South Indian dna 🧬?
