REVIEW

With the way things are going, if you don’t like the sound of driving a hybrid or electric car you may want to consider buying a bicycle in the future as they are most definitely here to stay. But they don’t all have to be boring like a Prius – Tesla has shown the way with exciting EVs and Porsche are leading the way in injecting a little soul into hybrids, and the new Cayenne is the latest to join the fight against pollution. Using the hybrid system first seen in the Panamera, here it’s mated to a 3.0 V6 petrol engine which combined make a rather attractive sounding 457bhp and 700Nm of torque. That means you can sprint to 62mph in 5 seconds but should you want to it can return 88mpg. Being a Cayenne it also handles incredibly well for something of its size and is supremely comfortable and practical. Quite something then!
