What is the weight of the Cayenne?

The Cayenne currently has 7 models on sale, with a curb weight ranging between 2175-2020kg. These include 5-door 5-seat SUVs and 5-door 4-seat SUV crossovers, with dimensions of 494219951636mm, 492619831673mm, 493119831676mm, 491819831696mm, and 493919891653mm respectively. In the same class, the Tiguan L 2022 model has a curb weight of 1665kg, while the Honda CR-V 2021 weighs 1506kg. In terms of powertrain, the 2021 Cayenne lineup includes a Turbo GT 4.0T model. It features a 4.0L twin-turbocharged engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. All engines have 8 cylinders and employ front-engine four-wheel drive. For other configurations, the 2021 Cayenne comes equipped with driver/passenger airbags, front/rear side curtain airbags, ISOFIX child seat anchors, driving assistance imaging, rear cross-traffic alert, and multiple driving modes. Notably, the entry-level (and best-selling) Cayenne model uses a 3.0L single-turbocharged engine producing 340hp, achieving 0-100km/h in 6.2 seconds (5.9s with optional Sport Chrono Package). The higher Cayenne S features Porsche's new 2.9L twin-turbo V6 with 440hp (0-100km/h in 5.2s, 4.9s with Sport Chrono). The top Cayenne Turbo boasts a 4.0L twin-turbo V8 delivering 550hp (0-100km/h in 4.1s, 3.9s with Sport Chrono Package).

The weight of a Cayenne depends on the configuration you choose, and there can be significant differences between versions. Based on my research, the curb weight of the base model generally fluctuates around 2 tons, depending on the engine displacement and drivetrain. For example, you can feel the solid body when driving, especially in corners, but the heft is noticeable when parking. Don't underestimate this number—weight directly affects fuel consumption and tire wear. My friend's 3.0T model easily consumes 15 liters per 100km in city driving. For the most accurate data, it's best to check the vehicle's VIN plate or the owner's manual.

Last week, I test-drove the Cayenne, and the salesperson mentioned its curb weight falls between 1,900 to 2,200 kg. This weight range positions it as medium-to-upper tier among SUVs, over 300 kg heavier than its sibling Macan. I felt the weight distribution was well-balanced—it didn’t have the floaty feel of some Japanese cars, with the body responding precisely during high-speed lane changes. Parking was trickier, though, especially parallel parking, requiring a few extra steering adjustments. When choosing, I’d recommend comparing weight data with rivals like the X5 or GLE to find your best fit.

The curb weight of the Porsche Cayenne varies by model year. The newly released hybrid version weighs up to 2,350 kg, while the classic gasoline version is lighter at around 2,000 kg. Weight directly impacts operating costs—I've calculated that every additional 100 kg increases fuel consumption by 0.5 liters per 100 km. For daily commuting, it's advisable to avoid high-end models, as start-stop systems in city traffic are particularly energy-intensive. Always check the vehicle's conformity certificate to confirm weight, as it affects annual inspection parameters.
