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. 

The Porsche Cayenne 2016 has got the double-wishbone and multi-link suspensions as well to have a guide on its wheel geometry and straight-line stability. While the driver-selectable mode switches driving style from normal to sporty stance as per making adjustments at the steering and pedal ends. 

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. 

Going by the data, the Cayenne has been priced almost $14,000 higher than the Lexus RX350 but can tow 4,216 lbs more as well. Meanwhile, the BMW X5 goes a little quicker in the 0-60 MPH than the Cayenne by 0.4 seconds, however, struggles in its towing capacity by a deficit of 1,764 lbs.

The 2016 Porsche Cayenne offers a fuel economy of 20 MPG combined that drops to 18 MPG in the city streets and increases to 24 MPG on the highways. Its 26.4-gallon fuel tank capacity further pushes it to cover a range of 475-634 miles in a single refueling.  

As per data, the 2016 Cayenne has the best combined range coverage than the rest where it tends to beat X5 by 58 miles, GLE Class by 36 miles and RX 350 by 106 miles. Major credit for such variation goes to Cayenne's large fuel tank that is nearly 2 gallons bigger than GLE-Class and 4 gallons larger than the X5. 

Step in the 2016 Porsche Cayenne and a well-crafted interior waits for you with partial leather upholstered 8-way power-adjustable front seats. Not just that, these same seats can further be stepped up in their functionality with heating and ventilation functions with some extra spending. In addition to these, the driver lays hands on the metal-finish steering wheel that can be upgraded to sport-leatherette, if wished. 

The Porsche Cayenne 2016 has been integrated with dual-zone automatic climate control, under-seat ducts, and console ducts as well for proper heat recirculation throughout the cabin. While the Power Cargo Access comes as standard for keeping your cargo loading a fair business. As far options are concerned, the Cayenne has got full leatherette touch seats as well along with standard Metal and Piano Black shades for the Instrument Panel, Console, and Door Panel Inserts.

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. 

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:

• Partial leatherette seats
• 8-way power-adjustable front row
• Dual-zone automatic climate control
• 7-inch PCM infotainment system 
• Navigation System
• Bluetooth Connectivity

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.
