Porsche’s most potent Cayenne EV is ready for the Nürburgring, the boat ramp, and day care—possibly in one trip.

Positioned between the Artura and the 750S, the new mid-engine sports car will source its power from a twin-turbocharged V-6 and start around $315,000.

Thanks to their ability to provide a smooth ride and quiet powertrain with ease, electric vehicles are a true shoo-in for the high-end luxury automotive segment. Rolls-Royce has the Spectre, Cadillac's Celestiq is taking bespoke to a whole new level, and Mercedes has given the EQS the full Maybach treatment.

After chomping on the bit for literally years, we finally got to drive – and I mean really drive – the Porsche Cayenne Electric, and it was everything we’d hoped for, and more. Porsche flew us out to Aspen, Colorado, and gave us a 250-ish-mile mountain road (and off-road) course to devour with their flagship SUV. The $163K monster did not disappoint in acceleration, air-supported suspension comfort, and even fast charging. But, there, as always, are some caveats beyond the huge price tag…

It's difficult to believe that something so heavy can accelerate faster than some of the most extreme performance cars in the world.

Knowing Porsche, the electric 718 is going to be one of the sickest EVs on sale whenever it finally does come out.

Originally supposed to go on sale in 2025, Porsche's electric sports car is missing in action, but the company reaffirmed that it is not dead.

Michael Leiters says the delayed electric Boxster and Cayman remain in development as the brand works to attract new buyers.

Race car driver Patrick Long had to hold pace at the Cayenne EV's top speed while the massive Stratolaunch Roc took off, and the resulting video is awesome.

Porsche has recently gone back and forth on electrification, but its new CEO Michael Leiters said in his first major interview that the electric 718 model will be built, after much speculation otherwise. But there are still inklings that he’s not as committed to electrification as he could be.

Not only does it cost about the same as a four-cylinder Ford Mustang, but it's also claimed to weigh around 3000 pounds.

Bentley recorded a V8 in a studio, analysed it, and discovered that rhythm, not mechanical tone, is what makes the engine emotionally compelling. To test the theory, the team set up parabolic speakers with the V8 playing on one side and a live drummer on the other. Walking between the two revealed striking similarities in […] This story continues at The Next Web

Bentley realized that rhythm is the most important aspect of engine noise, so it mainly uses drums to replicate the thrum of a V8.

Crewe measured its most famous combustion engines and determined that the way to replace that soundtrack was old-fashioned percussion.

Using drums, guitars and string instruments, Bentley says its Dynamic Symphony sound doesn't mimic a V8 engine, but it evokes the same feelings.

Xpeng’s globally focused L03 combines three in-house AI chips, deeply integrated Google Maps, two powertrain choices, and enough towing and cargo capability for proper road trips.

Lamborghini has doubled down on backing away from electric vehicles. A second executive now confirms the Lanzador will launch as a plug-in hybrid rather than an EV, and that the brand’s first fully electric car won’t arrive until after 2030. The reason, according to the company, is that its customers “were not willing to buy an electric car” and that the “technology is not mature enough.”

With plans to slash its lineup by up to 50%, several Volkswagen EVs, including those under the Audi and Porsche brands, may not be around for much longer.
