Our sales representative, Mr. H, kindly offered, <strong>&#8220;If you like, we can check how much we could buy it back for.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To our surprise, the offer was better than we expected. My husband said:<\/p>\n<p class=\"well3\">If you were driving the Cayenne regularly, it would be best to keep it. But lately, we haven\u2019t been taking long drives, and the Cayenne has mostly been sitting in the parking lot. That\u2019s such a waste, and since the buyback price was better than expected, it might be a good idea to let it go before the next model comes out.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-29460\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/DSC00516.jpg\" alt=\"Porsche Cayenne\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"style3a\">The Excellence of the Hybrid Model<\/h3>\n<p>The Cayenne E-Hybrid. After about two years since delivery, it had covered around 16,000 km.<\/p>\n<p>Looking back on this Cayenne E-Hybrid, my impression is that it\u2019s a <strong>wonderful Porsche that perfectly balances comfort and performance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Both my husband and I often said, \u201cWhat a great car,\u201d and the spacious interior was a hit with our kids. Our whole family loved it.<\/p>\n<p>Before driving the Cayenne, I imagined that <strong>even though it\u2019s a Porsche, being an SUV, it wouldn\u2019t deliver the sporty driving experience we expected<\/strong>. But once behind the wheel, the handling, brakes, high-speed stability, and the feel on winding roads all strongly confirmed that it truly is a Porsche.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, despite its high ride height, weight, and size, I was once again amazed by <strong>Porsche\u2019s technology that delivers genuine sports car performance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>One of my favorite things about the Cayenne was its acceleration when merging onto the highway.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>motor assist<\/strong> provides smooth, instant power that feels fantastic and makes the car feel weightless.<\/p>\n<p>Once you experience this, you actually feel <strong>that a non-hybrid just doesn\u2019t quite measure up<\/strong>. This Cayenne completely changed my image of hybrid models. My husband even insists that the next Cayenne or Panamera he buys absolutely must be a hybrid.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-21826\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG_1029.jpg\" alt=\"Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid\" width=\"1200\" height=\"730\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Even though we didn\u2019t drive it often, the fact that it surpassed <strong>16,000 km<\/strong> shows that whenever we went on trips, the Cayenne was our go-to.<\/p>\n<p>From Awaji Island, Fuji Speedway, Wakayama, to the Porsche Experience Center Tokyo in Chiba\u2026 long drives over 500 km one way were no problem at all. It was truly a reliable, fun, and trustworthy car.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"style3a\">The Cayenne\u2019s Width\u2026<\/h3>\n<p>So, why did such a wonderful Cayenne see less and less use? The <strong>only reason was its width.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s easy to drive and quite nimble, so length wasn\u2019t much of an issue. But at about 2 meters wide, parking became a challenge.<\/p>\n<p>We could hardly park it at the local children\u2019s hospital, and many family restaurants and conveyor belt sushi places in the city have tight spaces. Considering the risk of scratches, the Cayenne\u2019s usage naturally declined. (I <a href=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/entry\/porsche-cayenne-scratch-202107\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">actually scratched it once,<\/a> which probably made me even more cautious\u2026)<\/p>\n<p>I kept thinking, <strong>If only it were under 1900mm wide\u2026 it would be so much easier to drive!<\/strong> But that was out of our hands, so with a heavy heart, we said goodbye to the Cayenne.<\/p>\n<p>Since the Cayenne left, we\u2019ve had quite a few occasions to travel as a family of five (maybe because of the Obon holiday), and now we all squeeze into my beloved little Swift Sport for trips.<\/p>\n<p>Lately, the Swift Sport has been a real star, and as its owner, that makes me pretty happy, haha.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-29461\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_8821.jpg\" alt=\"Swift Sport\" width=\"1200\" height=\"884\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So, while we\u2019ve parted ways with the Cayenne, it was truly a fantastic car that gave us many wonderful memories. I\u2019m filled with gratitude and hope it finds a great new owner next.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Farewell to the Cayenne E-Hybrid In early August, we said goodbye to the Cayenne E-Hybrid that had been part of our family.
