Porsche owners now have access to nearly 30,000 Tesla Superchargers across North America using a new NACS adapter. The soft launch starts September 9, with Tesla app activation first, while Porsche app integration and plug-and-charge will roll out in the coming months.

Porsche is finalizing its first electric Cayenne, built on the 800V Premium Platform Electric. Equipped with a 108 kWh battery, it delivers over 373 miles of range and charges from 10–80% in just 16 minutes at up to 400 kW. Three dual-motor AWD trims—400 hp, 600 hp, and 805 hp—combine SUV utility with Porsche’s hallmark performance. Deliveries start next year, alongside updated gas-powered models.

Porsche, once dismissive of fake gear shifts in EVs, is now experimenting with an eight-speed virtual transmission and V8 sound simulation in the upcoming Cayenne EV. Engineers have tuned the system to feel almost authentic, giving drivers a choice between silent efficiency and a more engaging, mechanical-like experience.
