At the New Cayenne Debut Fair<\/h3>\n

On July 21st (Sat) and 22nd (Sun), I received a DM announcing \u201cThe New Cayenne Debut Fair\u201d at the Porsche Center<\/strong>, so I decided to go yesterday. We were wondering, \u201cWhat time should we go?\u201d but when my husband called our dealer contact, Mr. H, around noon, he said \u201cIt\u2019s insanely crowded right now…!\u201d<\/strong> Apparently, during the day, there were so many cars that there was nowhere to park.<\/p>\n

Both my husband and I dislike \u201ccrowds,\u201d \u201cwaiting in lines,\u201d and \u201crushing around\u201d<\/strong>, and since we brought the kids, it would be troublesome if they ran around in a crowd. So we decided, \u201cLet\u2019s go after it calms down. Surely by around 5 p.m., the crowd will have thinned out.\u201d We headed to the dealer aiming to arrive just before 5 p.m.<\/p>\n

The New Cayenne S on Display!<\/h3>\n

When we arrived at the Porsche Center, there were still quite a few people despite the time. I might not have seen the Porsche Center this lively before, lol. Inside, right in the center, we found the display car of the \u201cNew Cayenne S.\u201d<\/strong> The body color was black. From the front, it was a bit hard to spot major differences from the current Cayenne model.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Looking from the side, you can see that the design around the rear lights has changed significantly.<\/strong> Many automotive sites mention it looks similar to the rear design of the new Panamera, and indeed, just looking at the lights, it resembles the Panamera. In fact, from a direct side view, it looks like a Panamera Sport Turismo with a taller profile.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The rear looks like this, featuring the connected tail lights that have become a design hallmark since the new Panamera. Compared to the current model, it gives a sportier SUV impression.<\/strong> Overall, it somehow feels a bit more squared off\u2014maybe that\u2019s just because the body is black. I imagine white or red colors would give a different impression.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So, I got inside. The doors close with a satisfying firmness\u2014not too heavy, not too light. Somehow, I feel the Panamera\u2019s doors are heavier\u2014maybe because it has the soft-close door option. Here\u2019s the driver\u2019s seat area.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sporty and cool. Since the new Panamera came out in 2017 (so maybe it\u2019s not really \u201cnew\u201d anymore), the touch panel area has grown larger, and the center console display looks sleek. The engine wasn\u2019t on in the photo, so the displays are all black, but when started, the icons light up red.<\/p>\n

I suddenly noticed the handles on both sides of the center console. I asked my husband, and he said \u201cThey\u2019re there so you can hold on when the car body shakes a lot during off-road driving.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Oh, I didn\u2019t know that\u2014such thoughtful design!<\/span> (Though I guess that\u2019s standard for SUVs.)<\/span> The cup holders and storage box look like this:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

There are two cup holders placed horizontally. (The Panamera has two vertically aligned.)<\/span> This seems more convenient for both driver and passenger. The storage box is deep and looks like it can hold quite a bit. The seats look like this:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The seating feels natural and comfortable, and driving seems easy. Personally, I find overly sporty seats make me tense and tired, while luxury seats don\u2019t put me in \u201clet\u2019s drive!\u201d mode,<\/strong> so the seats in this Cayenne feel just right. Next, the rear seats.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

From the back, the front view is so open. I\u2019m just under 160 cm tall (probably, though I haven\u2019t measured in about 10 years)<\/span>, and for my height, the rear seats feel very spacious and seem comfortable enough for long drives without fatigue.<\/strong> Then again, maybe there\u2019s no SUV where someone 160 cm tall can\u2019t sit comfortably in the back… The seatbacks aren\u2019t too upright or too reclined\u2014just right.<\/p>\n

After getting in the Cayenne, I thought the higher ride height probably makes driving much easier.<\/strong> The width is 1983 mm, which is larger than the Panamera, but I still think driving the Cayenne is definitely easier. While thinking this, I glanced at the price list, and the total payment was…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

20,058,375 yen~ (\uff1b\uff9f\u0414\uff9f)!!<\/span><\/p>\n

Vehicle base price: 12,880,000 yen (tax included) + Options total 5,234,000 yen (tax included) + Registration fees 484,770 yen = Total 18,598,770 yen (tax included)<\/p>\n

The total shown for loan payment example was about 20 million yen.<\/p>\n

Wow\u2014that\u2019s expensive!<\/span><\/p>\n

When I said to my husband, \u201cThe Cayenne is really pricey (\uff1b\uff9f\u0414\uff9f),\u201d he replied,<\/p>\n

Yeah. This time it\u2019s expensive because of all the options added. Well… if you care about hierarchy, you might want to buy the S or Turbo. But if you just consider the car itself, even the standard model is super fast, and for driving in Japan, the normal specs are more than enough. If I were to buy one, I\u2019d go with the base model.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s true. Our previous Panamera wasn\u2019t a Turbo or S, but a \u201cPanamera Edition,\u201d and even the base model delivered more than enough performance.<\/strong> So here\u2019s the spec my husband said he\u2019d choose:<\/p>\n

\u2192[Reference article] This is the ideal spec if you buy the new Cayenne! Estimated over 12 million yen on the configurator.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

On the way home, we received a storage carry box as a novelty gift. Porsche\u2019s novelty goods are always pretty good (we\u2019ve gotten sturdy coffee cups and tote bags before)<\/span>, and this will be handy for carrying my husband\u2019s car accessories. Thank you very much!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Also, the Porsche Center we always visit recently set up a kids\u2019 space, so the kids could play a bit. Since it\u2019s a luxury car dealer, I thought a huge kids\u2019 area might not fit the image, so this size felt just right.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So, regarding the new Cayenne, since there are still few test drive reviews and more info will come out soon, if you want to know about the interior, options, specs, or test drives at this stage, I have a summary article from before, so please check it out.<\/p>\n
