Forty years ago, if you had some money and wanted to show off, you bought a personalized luxury car. Like Chevrolet Monte? Carlo, Ford Thunderbird or Chrysler Cordova.
These two-door cars, while having a personalized appearance, can show your good man side that pays attention to family practicality with its oversized trunk load.
However, times have changed, and now the label of showing off has been replaced by a coupe SUV. Porsche cayenne Coupe is one of them. To this end, Porsche has provided us with a stylish entry-level model, equipped with a 3.0-liter V6 turbocharged engine, which can output 340 HP and 450 Nm.
The starting price of the Cayenne Coupe is $75,300, which is $9,000 more than the ordinary SUV. In addition to styling changes, you can also enjoy panoramic skylights, eight-way electric sports seats and sport? Stopwatch timing set.
Pattern: 8/ 10
Undoubtedly, the most eye-catching part of Porsche Cayenne Coupe is the design. Personally, I think the appearance of Porsche Cayenne Coupe is better than that of BMW X6 and Mercedes-Benz GLE. Competitors such as Coupe should look good.
On the basis of the traditional Cayenne, it reduces the car height by 0.8 inches (about 20mm) and is closer to the legendary sports car 9 1 1 in appearance. The coupe treatment makes the Cayenne coupe look slimmer and gives the Porsche SUV a better body proportion.
Looking forward from the A-pillar, the body shape of Porsche Cayenne coupe is the same as that of traditional products of the same level, but looking back from the B-pillar, it shows Coupe's unique sense of movement. The spoiler fixed on the rear window is integrated with the roof, which enhances aerodynamics while retaining the overall aesthetic feeling of the movement.
The low roof curve is not conducive to the observation of driving vision in the car, and the cockpit in the car feels very comfortable. Thanks to exquisite materials and modern design. The basic cayenne Coupe we tested is equipped with a standard eight-way electric seat, and the interior is made of butter soft slate? Gray leather ($3,750). Porsche's monochrome interior is very attractive. But as far as my personal preference is concerned, there are too many cheap "piano black" decorations.
Comfort: 8/ 10
Porsche has done an excellent job in controlling the driving quality on bad ground, and Cayenne Coupe is no exception. Even with summer tires, the suspension can provide excellent bump filtering on almost all roads. Our test vehicle is equipped with an optional adaptive air suspension ($2, 170) and Porsche Active Suspension Management System, which is standard on every Cayenne Coupe. Sitting in the car on a long asphalt road in Los Angeles, we couldn't feel the trembling and abnormal noise in the car at all.
In terms of seats, the front seats are very comfortable and supportive, which can effectively reduce the fatigue of drivers and front passengers during long-distance travel. However, the vehicle we tested was equipped with steering wheel heating, but no seat heating. Considering the unusually cold and foggy morning this summer, we should choose the latter.
In the rear row, Porsche intends to put the rear seat down to ensure the head space. There are three standard independent seats on the seat, and you can also choose a combination of two-in-one benches. However, even during short trips, narrow rear windows and seat belts above passengers' shoulders can cause claustrophobic discomfort.
Of course, this is what we think of Coupe? The price that SUV should pay. Fortunately, the oversized glass roof provides the rear seat passengers with a beautiful view of the sky above, thus alleviating this sense of autism to some extent.
Central control system: 6/ 10.
Porsche Central Entertainment System is very easy to use and provides a good combination of touch screen and physical buttons, including multifunction buttons on the steering wheel. Wireless pairing of smartphones is standard, although like other versions of technology, it occasionally disconnects. So, we prefer apples? CarPlay connection
The Porsche Advanced Cockpit is standard on the Cayenne Coupe, including an analog tachometer with two 7.0-inch HD displays on both sides, which can display maps, important engine parameters, analog speedometer and audio information. When used with 12.3 inch infotainment screen, it can provide a lot of information for drivers, but you need to switch between the two screens, which may distract your attention.
In terms of sound, the standard version of the sound system will emit turbid bass and annoying treble. Stereo equalizer or fade-in balance cannot solve the problem. Of course, the general audience may not notice, but I suggest that you choose 1 0,200 Bose or 7,000 Burmester, both of which can provide a better experience at the same price.
Performance and control: 7/ 10.
In terms of performance and handling, the Porsche Cayenne can stand out in daily traffic like any Porsche product. Coupe is no exception, even in the normal mode with the lowest degree of motion, it can provide accurate direct steering force and limited steering roll.
On the powertrain, the Cayenne Coupe has the performance of 340 horsepower and 450 Nm, which is enough for you to speed up when the traffic lights start. Porsche said that the acceleration time of 100 kilometers only takes 5.7 seconds. If the money is not bad, we strongly recommend that you spend $3,220 on sports? Putting a box next to the exhaust can provide more performance improvement for your V6 engine.
In addition to the agricultural noise from the engine (Porsche is used to make tractors), Porsche's products are one of the best models in electric power steering, which can give you the truest driving feeling. If you choose sports or sports as your driving mode? Plus, the excellent conversion performance also benefits from the perfect balance weight of the front and rear ratio. Only the front wheels will slightly understeer when the vehicle speed is too fast.
Safety: 7/ 10.
The latest Cayenne models are equipped with automatic emergency braking, pedestrian monitoring and parking radar; At the same time, blind spot monitoring, lane keeping assistance and adaptive cruise control are optional. You know, these functions are standard items of some economical civilian cars now, but Porsche has to choose them.
Fuel economy: 3/ 10.
The Porsche Cayenne Coupe we tested has reached 19 miles per gallon (12.38L/ 100km), 23 gallons per expressway (10.23L/ 100km) and 20 gallons per gallon (/.
This is similar to the price of 429 horsepower Mercedes AMG? GLE？ 53? Coupe is equivalent to its light hybrid system, which can realize the sum of 18 cities, 23 expressways and 20 cities.
Audi Q8' s performance is even worse, which is 17 city, 2 1 expressway and 18 comprehensive.
BMW X6? XDrive40i scored in 20 cities, 26 expressways and 22 integrations, beating all coupe SUVs in terms of fuel economy.
Price: 5/ 10 cents
Finally, in terms of price, the starting price of the 2020 Porsche Cayenne Coupe is USD? 75,300, our test vehicle is painted with white metallic paint ($? 800), full leather interior ($? 3750), adaptive air suspension ($? 2, 170), heat the steering wheel ($? $280) and 2 1 inch turbine hub ($3,350), plus freight of $65,438+$0,350, totaling $87,000.
Cayenne Coupe has the power of BMW X6, but the price is different from X6? M50i is closer. In our opinion, the difference is not a small number. Can I buy Mercedes-Benz AMG at the same price? GLE？ 53。
The advantages of Porsche lie in its perfect interior and materials, more mature design and excellent chassis dynamics. However, the price of $87,000 is really unpleasant. If you have the ability, I suggest you go directly to the cayenne? America or GTS? Coupe, it can better serve the people who pursue sports performance. Porsche is not a good choice for those who pursue luxury but only need transportation.
Of course, for others, having a Stuttgart gold badge is priceless, so the Cayenne Coupe is definitely your best choice.
