The Cayenne S E-Hybrid Thread
My feedback (Platinium CSeH bought new in Oct. 2017): now 30.000km with an average of 8,5L/100km (50/50 highway/city). Average battery range: 20km depending outside temp and using airco or not. No issue, no failure alert. One question for the pro's: is the big battery the only one in the car or is there also a regular battery as well?

Hello to everyone in the forums! The posts and topics here were very helpful in our purchase decision. We鈥檙e the proud owners of a flawless condition, perfectly maintained Carrera White Metallic 2015 E-Hybrid with 31K miles.
We just had the oil and brake fluid changed along with new spark plugs. This is our first Porsche and so far we鈥檙e amazed. Longtime BMW owners here. Thanks for all the info on the Hybrid, I just took ownership of a Meteor Grey CPO 2016 with 32K. Really great car, I moved up from a 2005 Cayenne S with 156K miles. Have to set up a charge plug for the garage and get a travel charger. Getting cleaned up for delivery! MJ23, we bought this system and had it professionally installed. We鈥檙e very happy with it, including its app. Btw the Porsche Car Connect app has very useful features exclusive to the E-Hybrid as well. Our dealer didn鈥檛 charge anything to activate it for us. Btw what is your maximum range indicated after a full charge? Our 2015 is only 12 miles which is fine for in town errands.
It鈥檚 rare to see the engine come on, which is a minor concern. LOVE our Cayenne and I鈥檓 sure you will too! MJ23, we bought this system and had it professionally installed.

I just need a plug put in the garage for it and get something to carry on the road since I don't think we can use the high capacity DC chargers. I'll try out the Car Connect app, thanks for the recommendation. My max range is showing 12, that's what was displayed from delivery, that's the highest is been at by using the E-charge button. Will the plug in charger give more range, charge to a higher capacity or is it an efficiency of use that gives the range?

Will the plug in charger give more range, charge to a higher capacity or is it an efficiency of use that gives the range? In my experience from the last two years, it is efficiency of use, and the last actual e-drive efficiency (including factors that affect range such as temperature) drives the calculation of the range available for the next recharge. I hope to add to it with my input, observations, and comments. I was one of "those"). I laugh every time I see this car with a wire going into it! Unfortunately, they forgot to charge the battery when I picked it up and will definitely agree that they would generate way more sales if they kept these things fully charged!
In the late eighties and early nineties these cars were joined by a new raft of Japanese imports, fuelling demand and raising the profile of the scene even further. Honda, Toyota, Nissan and Subaru sold the Civic, Supra, Skyline and Impreza in huge volumes, in many ways repairing some of the damage caused by years of lacklustre models and shoddy reliability. European manufacturers responded to the Japanese influx with a wave of iconic motors including the BMW M3 E36, the Peugeot 306 GTi-6, the Renault Clio Williams, the Vauxhall Calibra Turbo and the Volkswagen Corrado VR6. Thousands of former petrol heads look back at this era with affection, and good examples of such models still attract high prices. At the turn of the century, the scene was changing once again. Modified cars were getting wilder, budgets were becoming more flamboyant and the target market was getting younger. Chav culture' had well and truly taken over, re-igniting the rise of the 'boy racer'.
