2024 Porsche Cayenne vs 2023 Porsche Cayenne: A Side-by-Side Comparison! Major Differences Revealed!

[@bobnouh4538]

I prefer analog dials this is the sign of sport car

[@Pcarwhisperer]

With you there! The analog feel is classic! Part of the reason I still like a 991.2 over a 992 just the analog feel ☺️

[@ShOwStOpp3rr]

im with you man,,bring back analog!

[@rickdias08]

Like most mid season refreshes aesthetically it is better looking in original version and old info screen was already large. Now you lose the really nice analog central tach. Overall awkward changes but they need to do something so there you go. The Turbo Cayenne is still the finest of all the high sport SUV's in total performance and dare say a good value.

[@backinthegame34]

Sometimes it’s best to leave well enough alone.

[@cranialnerv]

Porsche wouldn’t be the clear leader it is, if it left well enough alone. Slow, meaningful, well engineered refinement is their way.

[@dave24-73]

What don’t you like, Bigger engine, more efficient More options as standard More power Better seats (more options with fabric in middle vs full leather only). Better suspension Newer faster infotainment system Porsche have a habit of minimal change over a long period of time, then suddenly hit you in the face with a stick full of changes.

[@rossdonison4999]

@@dave24-73Only thing I really don’t like is the stupid dash-mounted shifter. And the awkward way you have to put in into manual mode. I love my 2019 C Turbo, where you just flip the shift lever to the left and gain full control instantly, shifting from either the lever or the wheel. This is the only backward step I think, from a company that normally caters very well to drivers. Otherwise it’s a fine update.

[@dave24-73]

@@rossdonison4999 yeah it’s clearly a cost saving measure as they are reusing the Tycan tech, I’m not sure how easy it would be to adapt to the transmission, but if you drive as an auto meaning you don’t upshift and downshift yourself, I guess it doesn’t take too long to get use to. It does make for a neater transmission;tunnel, but agree it feels odd initially.

[@angelamartin7885]

Well needed updates to stay competitive. I just test drove a 2024 cayenne and loved it. I placed my order after comparing it to Land Rover and Audi. I hated the Audi.

[@GGWPP91]

Honestly, the 958 Cayenne is the best generation in history. The turbos are limiting this monster now unless you always drive in sport plus mode but the experience still cannot compare with the 958.

[@therealook]

I think the sound is kind of distorted from my headphones

[@marcleblancmrmarctoyou]

Horrible sound

[@andyleo8418]

2023 looks better from the back and the analog gauges are way better than that digital display.

[@MoFoSho444]

[@viralsolanki7889]

Nice review, but is the audio messed up for anyone else?

[@Pcarwhisperer]

Thank you! I appreciate the support. On this one there is a bit of an audio issue... my apologies.

[@javadahmadi]

If you were to decide for a 2023 GTS or the new 2024 S model, which one would go for and why (finance, nor lease)? The 2023 GTS costs less than the new 2024 S model in Canada, FTY. I know all depends on the features it comes with. Just need your expert advice. Thanks

[@Lawyer-Pilot]

I just made this very decision. Went with the 2023 GTS Coupé over the 2024, almost exclusively due to the fact that Porsche destroyed the instrument cluster with that silly all-digital nonsense. And that gear selector...what the heck is that? Porsche can be forgiven for the Taycan (gotta appeal to the tree huggers somehow), but this is just getting silly.

[@sierrag8412]

2023 no doubt. The shifter and push start is very awkward to reach in a normal driving position. The center tac being gone is also a thumbs down. Outside they're 95% the same anyway.

[@zaidmendez1787]

I decided to go with the 2024 and here’s why. As far as the changes to the interior are concern (the removal of the shifter and the turnkey start), yeah not the greatest but also I don’t really care. Let’s be honest, while this is a Porsche, it’s still a family SUV. Both those qualities are meant for the sports cars. As long as they keep it out of my 911, I’m good (I guess it’s too late for the 992 turbo with that crappy shifter). I decided on the 2024 because of the upgrades - better suspension, more HP, better ride overall. It just makes more sense. In my opinion the upgrades in ride quality and boost on HP on that V8, overshadow the losses (shifter and turnkey ignition). Also, I’m pretty sure the 2024 Cayenne S has more power than the 2023 Cayenne GTS. I may be wrong but I’m pretty sure it does.

[@sierrag8412]

@@zaidmendez1787 I've noticed a bit of cost cutting in terms of materials in the interior but not much. But for me the rear end looks terrible without spending 7000 on the sport design pack, that's a bigger issue by far than the small interior bits changing.

[@zaidmendez1787]

Nah. I disagree. Interior is better. And you’re buying a Porsche. What’s another $7k? Anyway don’t care. It’s a family car. This is just another Porsche being added to my fleet. It’s not a big deal. Get what ever you want.

[@filtersolutions2655]

Excellent video and exactly what I had been looking for. You mentioned the "In-Car Video" capability which is different from the optional passenger side display. Is that in-car video you mentioned only available when the car is not moving and or only on European models? Will you be able to stream Netflix, etc. from that center display? Thanks.

2023 looks better, especially from the back.

[@System624]

First, thank you Mason for a great video. As a 2013 958 V6 Tiptronic owner 4 things stand out about the new interior. First & foremost is the removal of the traditional Porsche gauge cluster with visors! Attention Porsche AG! Not everything needs to be redesigned on a vehicle. We invest in Porsche's for brand heritage and anyone else like me who has a 958 Cayenne model as a daily driver understands the outstanding Porsche build quality and how well these vehicles last. And this "new" all digital display adopted from the Taycan is so disappointing and ugly. That's fine for the Taycan range but this is the Cayenne. Same goes for the interior door handles. For 2024 - and I could clearly read your lack of enthusiasm Mason - Porsche has done away with the gorgeous, sculptural chrome loop handles and replaced them with these cheap, plastic VW crap. If I want the build quality of an Atlas I buy one. I already looked online to see if there's any handle or display options for these original, classic versions and none yet. It makes me scream! Such a step backwards. Third is the removal of the dashboard clock and lastly is the interior roof control panel with the ambient lighting gone. I love that for driving my Cayenne at night. Gives a subtle illumination to the interior cab and its gone. I'm looking to upgrade my Cayenne but these key features, the gorgeous visual and tactile elements that really made the Porsche Cayenne interior lovely are gone, replaced by this bland Volkswagen interior. Boggles the mind. ✌️

[@Cobnapint]

Fully agree. Wtf have they done with the interior door handles? They look dreadful. And the gear selector - where am I going to rest my hand now...? And no cowl on the Speedo panel - that's surely going to show just how dusty it is. Bad move Porsche.

[@jays9433]

What is the rear turn signal color? - it looks like they have increased the turn signal area - it seems they could provide amber turn signals or at least offer it as an option.

[@sfinxproduction739]

Hi .. let's start at the beginning, I'm from Romania, I'm 43 years old and I currently own a PORSCHE cayenne E Hybrid Platinum Edition and the car is k, I'm satisfied, but I've only driven 5,000 km, so it's natural that the car is k, being new.. I have owned PORSCHE cars before, all the Cayenne models and I will probably own them again if the people from Porsche come back... k now I will present my opinion as a loyal customer .. let's analyze together .. any Porsche customer will choose this car in the first place for the brand, elegance, sportiness, exclusivity and last but not least for the classic that the brand has represented for so many years (like ROLEX) you don't buy a Rolex to check the time, you buy it for status, reliability and the classic that it represents .. this was also porsche a sports car that offered the status of a design classic that did not need a revolutionary design to attract ... a pair for a Rolex not for a Casio .. this facelift is seen in the first place that it is made of economy and no longer represents what it represented .. 1 .. for example that handle for children can no longer be sporty, it no longer represents power, it is embarrassing when you park, especially in Europe where the parking lots are rare and small to stay with your fingers behind the steering wheel so you can do parking maneuvers or put it on manual etc.. 2 ..that console now without a shifter is less comfortable, the shifter gives you additional comfort to sit with a natural hand position on the armrest, I think it is more important than sacrificing such comfort to get candy or gum, etc in that bigger hole in the console or to sit with the phone on charge for hours because it needs cooling, you don't buy a Porsche for something like that .. the driving comfort wins who will understand this will win ... 3 that screen for the passenger is pointless such as going on a long trip with my wife or a friend, etc. and that someone should sit silently on the right and watch the movie, maybe I in the car can also hear the sound of the movie while I'm driving...or on the navigation system when you have a very big screen next to everything with navigation (it costs more and extra) and I, as a buyer, can never see it, anyway, if it were this kind of person on the right, it would clearly be on smartphones, not on the dashboard of the car .. 4 ..that classic tachometer that it is now in the middle, it gives it a dose of luxury and makes the difference between a VW, TOYOTA, OPEL, CHEVROLET, etc. and a PORSCHE .. this shows that you are now driving a luxury car full of digital displays from the windshield to the console anyway .. 5 .. that "new" sport respons is very cheap as a matte plastic material and it's not practical. While I'm driving, I see very quickly through the light in it what sport or sport plus or etc. is selected... facelft no longer offers this comfort ..6 .. that start button that changed the classic shape of the key is like Ford (Rolex vs Casio) no longer makes the difference between an expensive more exclusive car and a normal one .. 7.. it has too few commands on the console more precisely half of what it had, it no longer has shortcuts in the menu, not even a button for controlling the central display, it no longer has it and the whole board moves when pressed, next to that piano black Mazda that replaced the touch glass and beautiful metal from the comfortable and sporty changer 😔 .. 8 .. The handle for opening the door from the inside is exactly like a BMW without personality .. 9 .. the upper box is incomparably uglier and the material is very cheap compared to the current one .. 10.. a car that does not it has visible elements and details without metal inside, it cannot be called a luxury car .. 11.. the exterior changes now lead to AUDI, they are no longer fluid like the 911 should have done now and the square key not in the shape of the 911 needles headlights with the fluid shape of Porsche have disappeared .. too bad the taillight looks cheaper and there will always be dirt and dust between the letters and in the coupe version it is less aggressive without that cutout on the sides in the body where the taillight has that thicker ending .. the classic a died ... and with it the luxury for the Cayenne .. let's hope that the new model will be a PORSCHE .. the facelift is a commercial and cheap shame .. see the engine cover .. rear presses without grips etc ..

[@amsolo]

I couldn't agree more. I think that Porsche somewhat needed to hold the price-point, so they found ways to make items less expensive. Lots of savings on many items adds up and saves cost to manufacturer. I feel like they are trying to hide the inferior material behind a design change, but I feel it is failure. I am mostly talking about the interior. Furthermore, I feel BMW went the same route. Technologically forward, but build materials/interior design backward. A shame IMO.
