2021 Cayenne S v. Cayenne GTS... What Are The Main Differences Between Porsche's First SUV?!

[@augustsmith3046]

When you add the options that are standard on the GTS to the S such as full leather, PTV, Sports Exhaust, aero dynamic body , air suspension , 21 inch wheels, full medal on lowers side trim, the difference is between $5k and $8k. Definitely worth it. Just got my special order GTS, MSRP $ 123,550, with same options on an S is around $118,000 and you get a V8. The sound difference is huge.

[@Pcarwhisperer]

Congrats on the Cayenne GTS August! Such an amazing car! The GTS is the best model Porsche makes in my opinion! 👍🏼

[@COZNA]

How is the ride different in standard driving between these two trims? I know the standard height on GTS is lower, but does it produce a harsher ride in daily driving????

[@martinnguyen4743]

How do you think about drive comfort? Does it like Mercedes gls or Lexus 450 ?

[@Pcarwhisperer]

The drive comfort is nice but is not as soft as a Mercedes or Lexus! Porsche considers all of its cars sports cars so the drive will not feel like you are on a cloud although for a sports based car it does very well!

Ok another great review, then what would you choose macan gts vs cayenne s and on 18 way seats side bolsters are they adjustable? What more comfortable for a larger person 18 vs 14

[@Pcarwhisperer]

Thank you Oleg 🙏🏼 great question... I would go with the Macan GTS over the Cayenne S! For me personally I don't need the extra size of the Cayenne and love the way the Macan GTS looks! Although the Cayenne S is amazingly sporty... I like the driving characteristics of the Macan GTS! Yes exactly the 18-way seats has control to move the bottom side bolsters as well ones on the back! I believe the 14-way seats would be more comfortable as the side bolsters are not as aggressive (tall) on the 14-way seats! Hope this helps! Thank you for the support 👍🏼

[@BIGB0SS1964]

Great review! Any idea on what the 2023 facelift for the Cayenne’s will look like? I saw the leaked images, and the headlights have more edges and lost its roundness. Would that be the final product or could they change it back to the curvy and round headlights?

[@Pcarwhisperer]

Thank you 🙏🏼 Great question.... Doesn't look like there will be a facelift for MY2023 as this will be only minor changes. However in 2023 they should be releasing a new facelift model for MY2024! Unfortunately I wish I had more information on the facelift but don't have much yet 😕

[@rigobertogarza7945]

i got to sit in a friend's cayenne turbo. the interior felt very special especially with the red leather seats it had. I have sat in a 2020 G550 and a 2017 G63 (both had red leather seats as well) and I can tell you the interior of both of those dont even compare to the porsches build quality. And ride quality is the best by far. I also was fortunate enough to drive a macan S with the sport chrono package, as a rental in miami and wow it had a fenomenal ride just like the cayenne.

[@Pcarwhisperer]

Awesome! There is definitely something very special about Cayenne Turbos! No kidding?! Which one do you like better Cayenne or Macan?

[@rigobertogarza7945]

@@Pcarwhisperer well the cayenne i sat in was a 2020, while the macan was a 2018 so it still had the smaller screen. I preffered the cayenne because of the technology and the PDLS headlights were for me (in my opinion) the best headlights ive seen, and also because it had apple carplay. One thing I did love about the macan tho was all of the buttons in the middle, it really made you feel like you were in a cockpit, but both were definitely very similar! I will say, I did like the more nimble feel of the macan alot, specially when cornering! But I mean that v8 on the cayenne was awesome to drive, so overall I think I prefer the cayenne.

what’s the exterior difference between the S and the Base cayenne

[@Pcarwhisperer]

Visually from the exterior the Cayenne and Cayenne S look the same with only some slight differences with the standard equipment... including the brake caliper color and rear exhaust tailpipes. Cayenne: Black Brake Calipers, twin exhaust Cayenne S: Silver Brake Calipers, quad exhaust pipes Besides having different 19 inch wheels as standard. Besides these items the cars looks virtually identical from the exterior! Hope this helps!

What does the gts lease for

[@Pcarwhisperer]

Hi Jason it will really depend on so many factors.... MSRP, miles driven per year, credit, term of the lease, money down, is there a market adjustment on the vehicle?
