2013 Porsche Cayenne hybrid India road test - Overdrive
Before you, like Varun, wonder if I’ve gone a bit loony let me explain the setting. We’re driving down Gujarat’s excellent highways through a constant monsoon deluge in the new Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid. The suspension set in comfort mode makes the SUV feel like it’s floating through fields of cotton candy. The Porsche may have been barreling down the road at over 100kmph, but the feeling from the inside was of extreme serenity – pure automotive nirvana. But let’s back up a bit, what is this hybrid Porsche. Why has Porsche even bothered to build it. Well it’s all about shattering perceptions and proving points. It all started in 2002 when Porsche unveiled the big Cayenne to a rather disapproving world. The Cayenne drove much better than it looked and was easily the most dynamic SUV of its time. Porsche went on to prove that big doesn’t mean slow with the Cayenne Turbo that instantly became the world’s fastest SUV. The Cayenne S Hybrid promises the solution to that problem as well.
