Finally a legit review of the base Cayenne. I was so annoyed at Red line guy where he was complaining about getting a base cayenne the whole freaking video. Straight pipes, you guys are professionals for sure.

I'm with Uri, smaller rims look fine and are almost always more practical. Plus sometimes a car will have 21" rims with 9" brakes which also looks ridiculous.

[@On2wheels94]

My Jeep 😂

[@jasonkolker]

Small wheels on big brakes >

[@constructionbootgazer]

But these are not smaller rims… just higher profile tires. Wheel sizes are ridiculous these days. I have 21s on my SQ5 and then OEM 13s for my 1980 Fiat.

[@priqq1]

​@@constructionbootgazeryep, we can thank government safety regulations for the gradual increase over time. More security features that are required means larger size vehicles, which means larger wheels to equal proportion. I miss the days of super thin A pillar civics and such, I'll take my chances in a wreck hahaha

[@DeadheadInABed]

​@@priqq1still plenty of used shit boxes out there if you picture yourself in a pile of twisted metal on the side of the road in the near future!

[@TyresePeoples]

I appreciate a base model review honestly. all of the KZbin car reviewers always get the highest trim of each model which is understandable but you never get a feel of if you actually need all the upgrades or not

[@EdwardVarner]

I was literally specing this exact car yesterday. Ya'll crushed it as always!

[@andresvidoza]

Call me crazy but as much as I love Porsche and as much as we all know this car saved them in the past, I think this time around for the price, there are way better alternatives out there. I sat in a few of them last week and I was a bit disappointed :/ Great review Boys! Love from Montreal.

[@UrbanBDKNY]

Andres I love that you are so into cars as well as tech. What are those options you saw? FYI I currently drive a GLE53... I also looked at the Cayenne years ago and was disappointed. It might be the only Porsche that doesn't feel special

[@SevenHunnid]

Im mexican & on my KZbin channel i do food reviews

[@Cocky.Rooster]

So you think there are way better alternatives yet you were disappointed by the alternatives🤔?

[@flitcroftLA]

BMW X5 refresh (2024 and on-) is nearly perfect. Has as much tech as Tesla. More power and much better value than Porsche too. My hybrid is 483 bhp, 516 lb ft. Absolute monster.

[@UrbanBDKNY]

@@flitcroftLA just took a look, did they recently drop prices? I m shocked at the base price 72k starting price for a 483HP model is very good price nowadays. The GLE53 used to have a 68k base price. It is now like 86k. An 18,000 increase. Safe to say I m not getting the new model. The GLE63S used to cost that much in 2021 lol I might need to go check this out. Audi is also too expensive. I already checked them out

[@KevinLiaoC]

Finally the car I was waiting for to be reviewed by the one and onlys. Been waiting for you guys for a couple month guys. Good job.

[@TheStraightPipes]

Our pleasure!

[@v12-s65]

Sat in one yesterday and was kinda disappointed by the excessive use of plastic in the interior. The steering column leevers, seat adjustment controls, air vents, buttons etc. wouldn't like to see that at this price point tbh even if it is high quality made. However I very much enjoyed the seating position of the Macan, felt like a sports car

[@flat6gts]

I agree. I test drove the 2024 and while it was “nice” everywhere, it didn’t scream $100k car. Also I was bothered that the arm rest didn’t extend far enough forward for me to use it while holding the wheel with my right arm (I am 5’ 8” so this is probably not as big of an issue for taller folks)

[@v12-s65]

Some manufacturers have actually designed their cupholders to be at different heights so when both are being used with same sized cups, one will be higher than they other so the lids don't touch.

[@davidwebb913]

We have the 2019 Cayenne, and I was so tempted to upgrade when this was first released. The front looks really nice, and that uniform dash looks so clean. But the rear looks odd with light colours if you dont pay for the body kit (with a painted bumper), the interior is noticibly more plasticky, the passenger screen is useless, and the car is quite a bit more expensive than 4 years ago. A comparable build to my car now costs over 16k more. That being said, the current X5, GLE, and Q7/8 arent that great, so maybe this Cayenne will still sell well.

[@rafael6693]

if you think that is expensive let me tell you that you can almost get a turbo in USA for the price of the base cayenne in Europe

[@elmirbrdar1045]

Yeah we get screwed here, in particularly Ireland where we have an additional tax that no other EU country has

[@ted6462]

For that price you could get a low mileage 2021 Cayenne S that is near fully loaded. That's what I would buy. The changes are so minor, and I would take the V6TT over the new V8.

[@s2000killa1]

last week, i rented a Macan that had that same analog clock. i was somewhat surprised (and delighted) that it auto-updated each time i crossed into a different timezone. nice touch.

[@atrac7]

Most enthusiasts have said the interior has felt cheaper compared to prior models. I.e worse quality leather, door trim stuff, etc. Thoughts?

[@TheStraightPipes]

Ours had solid options and felt great

[@atrac7]

@TheStraightPipes that's good to know. I personally have a 2020, but am curious about the new tech. Glad that things are still tip top shape

[@omidnamin9004]

the previous gen cayenne had a special interior. when you sat in them, it wasn't like anything else out there and yet so luxurious and beautiful. now they just put 2 tablets in there and decided, yup that should work.

[@RPYMCMB]

There are different seats available as options and the passenger screen is optional. There is no luxury sports SUV that is better when you keep in mind that Porsches are designed to be timeless unlike others that go for the wow factor.

[@Summersault666]

They ruined the brand with that interior. It's so garbage and cheap.

[@eycantsee]

[@stevegallagher4082]

I got a new x5 50e maxed out with extended 10 year maint/warranty and still spent less. The infotainment is good once you use it for a while. I was not a fan at first but most of the complaints are non-issues. Just set the climate to auto (like most people should) and your main gripes are fixed.

[@salwalker7071]

Agreed! My fav coupe SUV of ALL the coupe SUVs too!!!

[@jiaweichen9296]

What I don’t understand is why they don’t give Cayenne the 2.9L EA839 just like Macan. I thought VW was going to move to 2.9L V6 completely when I saw the Macan S using the 2.9L.

[@thepiratepenguin_]

As far as SUV "coupes" go, this one looks pretty good.

[@JUSHARRY]

It looks like Yuri doesn’t like when Jakub pushes like that 2:11 in a few vids I’ve seen genuine concern on his face when they overstep traction and have to force correct

[@jonlosito2004]

I've been reading the comments below this video and It seems like most people don't like it. It actually looks cheap and plasticky in the interior, and they don't like the screens cuz they tend to break often. I think I would rather take the 1st gen Cayenne GTS V8 with a manual over this, and its the same one Doug DeMuro reviewed last year, and those 1at gen Cayennes were also very capable off road too!

[@user-tq9bw3tv4n]

So basically you can’t afford this one

[@jonlosito2004]

@@user-tq9bw3tv4n no. Because the price doesn't match with the interior.

[@TD-zc4zi]

I test drove a couple of the new Cayennes this summer at a Porsche Experience event. Honestly, I didn’t get why anyone would buy this for the premium. An XC90 Recharge is faster, more fuel efficient, handles surprisingly well, carries 7, and doesnt have 60” of screen showing literally nothing of value in terms of entertainment or information over the outgoing model. The 911 GTS on the other hand - 🔥🔥👌🏾

Porsche and Audi follow the same patterns on their SUV's, don't screw too much with the looks and design but make simple but big impact updates on the interior and powertrain. Porsche and Audi SUV's are the best looking on the road.

Excellent review, Jakub and Yuri. We have a 2019 Cayenne E-Hybrid and we are on a waiting list for the refreshed (9Y0.2) 2024 Cayenne E-Hybrid or Cayenne S E-Hybrid. Unfortunately, no visibility from Porsche Canada on delivery dates of new E-Hybrids to Canada yet; although deliveries have begun in Europe. Do you believe that the player on the passenger side screen will eventually enable KZbin (to watch TheStraightPipes, obviously)...

[@TheStraightPipes]

Haha not sure about that passenger screen working well for video without extra subscription services if you’re ok with that

[@aakashselvarajakumar4950]

Would you prefer macan gts over 2024 cayenne base model?

[@billnorblat4047]

Depends on your spacial needs. Macan GTS is the best daily driver ever if it's big enough for your needs. (As with all porsche's, you gotta spec them right)

[@scottthompson5855]

I just bought a base 2022 Cayenne CPO off three year lease. Only 5400 miles. Just don't understand losing the U in a sport utility by getting a coupe. Whatever floats your boat. I prefer my 2022 to the 2024. No upgrade made my go f$#& me I want that. I love the analog tach. Like the steering wheel on my 2022 better as well. Is that a fixed headrest? If yes, yuck. Love my adjustable headrest on the 15 way seats.Mine does not have the uber nanny package with the fugly all knowing ball 😮 in grill. No lane management and cruise crap. Just blindspot and parking 360 camera. The ability to fit dog carriers in rear and still have rear seats up and ability to slide the whole seat forward is awesome. Thanks for review.

Thoughts on the PDK in a Macan vs Tiptronic in the Cayenne, do you feel a difference in shifting, ride etc?

[@nateisright]

IMO, I can tell the difference and PDK is a good reason to get the Macan S instead. Drive them both and form your own opinion.

[@TheStraightPipes]

Big difference. This is done for towing in the Cayenne

[@porkt358]

Which model you will buy between Macan S and Cayenne S e hybrid coupe?

[@mike9588]

Is a base cayenne worth it over an SQ8? Probably not (basically same price once comparably equipped

[@TheStraightPipes]

Probably not unless you need to have a Porsche badge

[@epicswirl]

Definitely not buy the sq8 or go up a trim on the cayenne.

[@sickset]

Definitely not, more comparable would be the new Cayenne S vs the SQ8, being both with the V8. Price wise, since the Base is basically Sq8 territory, SQ8 for sure imo.

[@artieartya]

You guys need a petition to get tux mats to be able to customize the car brand name on them when you order them

I have a 2016 X5 M sport, and while it is no Porsche, it is a fantastic 5 pax sport SUV. I love the way it handles and how it looks in m sport trim, plus it is way more affordable to drive and maintain. The only way to know for you isn’t drive both back to back.

[@realdah]

Go with 2024 X5, Cayenne has the old looking for too long, stupid expensive options and their infotainment system is not comparable to BMW.

I bought this new Cayenne late last year, from a GLE. Although the Cayenne looks sportier, this is what I have found in comparison: 1. Cayenne tech has issues all the time. Be it Bluetooth connection, key sensors, user accounts. It’s so frustrating… 2. We ordered Lane Keep Assist as an option, but it didn’t come with it. The problem is STILL not solved… So much for customer care… 3. Mercedes GLE had a more luxurious feel to it, and the seats were more comfortable for driving long distance. 4. Cayenne Headlights are dusty on the interior side, you notice it when you turn the lights on. Cant be fixed and polished apparently. This is so disappointing considering the price you pay. Honestly, mercedes was much better IMO.
