The 2016 Porsche Cayenne roars a 300 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque with its inherent 3.6-liter V6 engine. Delivering the power to all the wheels through an AWD platform, the Cayenne 2016 smoothly upshifts the transition with its 8-speed automatic transmission.

Bashing the 0-60 MPH in 7.2 seconds, the 2016 Cayenne runs as one of the fastest in the segment. And its 13.8-inch front and 13-inch rear vented disc rotors allow it to curb that power definition within a decent braking travel when employed in conjunction with 4-wheel ABS.

In terms of figures, the 2016 Cayenne feels a little low in its caliber to get in stuffs as compared to rivals where the X5 enjoys a 12.1 cu-ft bigger cargo volume. Even the Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class owns a 15.1 cu-ft larger cargo space behind the 2nd row than the Cayenne 2016. Apart from these, it is certain to notice an intuitive 7-inch HD touchscreen Porsche Communication Management infotainment system inside its interior realm.Â
Beating your nerves with high bass music is the 10-speaker Hi-Fi sound system. Porsche has kept its approach dynamics in providing an entertainment package as the space gets two rear LCDs as well for the 2nd-row passengers. The list goes on and on with other assets like the SiriusXM Satellite Radio and Bluetooth Connectivity alongside that standard Navigation Unit. Some of the interior features have been mentioned below:
The 2016 Porsche Cayenne looks flamboyant in its 12 exterior color palettes that get even better when those high-intensity auto-leveling oval headlights brighten in the night. Its silhouette inclines to appear sporty as well, kudos to its lip spoiler and the long strip LED brake lights on the back.
The Porsche Cayenne 2016 has got 18-inch Cayenne Design Wheels to ride on that are in line with its design philosophy and complements its muscular yet elegant build. However, one does have the opportunity to go for the optional 21-inch wheels too while keeping that power liftgate as it is.

Coming on the competition, all of them have almost parallel dimensions right from length to width to height except for the curb weights where the Cayenne seems to be 200 lbs lighter than GLE-Clas and BMW X5 on average. But their dynamic control technology does not let make any difference in their handling.
The 2016 Porsche Cayenne has no safety rating either by the NHTSA or the IIHS due to its premium price tag. However, its MQB platform's safety build remains untarnished with its standard safety suite that can be upgraded with even better safety virtues. Some of them have been mentioned below:
The 2016 Porsche Cayenne can be exciting in its dynamics and handing but it struggles when it comes to acceleration parameter against the BMW X5. But one can hardly point finger at it as the Cayenne shines with its impressive towing capacity and engaging interior and so does the X5. Hence, both are equally desirable.
The 2016 Porsche Cayenne has an edge against the RX 350 in both performance and utility along with sharper commanding drive. Though the 2016 Cayenne is expensive but the offers by this premium SUV in throttling and interior tech-ends simply outweigh that negative against the RX 350.
The Porsche Cayenne 2016 tends to be a classy SUV but it still misses out to be as exotic as the Merced-Benz GLE-Class in touches, interior technology, and ambiance. However, there is nothing much to comment on their handling pursuit as they tend to be at the same level in this regard. On the whole, it has to be GLE Class for its better value proposition.
The 2016 Porsche Cayenne has been designed to be a complete package with maximum safety and reliability at its end. The driving persona is also uncompromised for the Cayenne along with plenty of inspiring optional features for the interior comfort upgrade that can literally make huge enhancements in its overall appeal. Therefore, it is customed to lure many enthusiasts for many reasons.
