Porsche Cayenne 2021

The 2021 Porsche Cayenne range of configurations is currently priced from $130,911. Our most recent review of the 2021 Porsche Cayenne resulted in a score of 7.6 out of 10 for that particular example.

Carsguide Deputy Editor James Cleary had this to say at the time: The Cayenne GTS feels like a proper Porsche, with snippets of 911 regularly filtering into this SUV experience. It’s beautifully engineered, fast, and dynamically outstanding, yet practical and super-comfortable when you need it to be. Despite one or two safety and equipment gaps for a car in this part of the market it’s a great option for people who want to have their family cake and eat it with a sports car spoon.

This is what James Cleary liked most about this particular version of the Porsche Cayenne: Dynamic performance, Practicality, Comfort

The 2021 Porsche Cayenne carries a braked towing capacity of up to 3500 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.

Porsche Cayenne 2021 Q&As

Check out real-world situations relating to the Porsche Cayenne here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.

  • Porsche Cayenne: replacement key cost
    Show more
  • Aurion to replace my Maxima?

    Thanks for the email. Hopefully I can keep this simple. 

    I would strongly recommend a Toyota Aurion V6 $30,990 drive away or the Toyota Camry $28,990 drive away (pricing current September 2015). 

    Unless you want the acceleration of the V6 I would opt for the four cylinder Camry, which is spritely enough and will also deliver good open road fuel economy. 

    For the type of driving you're doing you do not need the hybrid Camry. 

    Also, the base model Camry on the smaller wheels and Michelin tyres will be much more comfortable and a touch quieter than the dearer Camry models that come with sports tyres. 

    In both the Aurion and Camry you will be protected by seven airbags and a five star safety rating. A rear camera is standard on both models too. 

    The servicing costs are among the cheapest in the business. 

    Furthermore the intervals are longer than other Toyotas (15,000km rather than 10,000km) and the capped pricing lasts four years or 75,000, whichever comes first (other Toyotas are three years, 60,000km). 

    This was done to help Aurion and Camry appeal to fleets. 

    However, your warranty is the same as other Toyotas at three years/100,000km. 

    Dealership extended warranties are generally not worth the paper they are printed on, so save your money if you're offered an extension. 

    Please check you're comfortable when driving the Aurion and Camry. They have ample room inside and a lot of travel in the front seat rails. 

    Meanwhile, you're right in your assumption that Toyotas are regarded as a premium over Holden and Ford. The price is cheap because Toyota is trying to keep the factory running until 2017. It is in effect making a loss with each Camry it sells. 

    Toyota also has a vast rural dealer network so hopefully you're never far away from help should you need it. 

    Lastly, the Camry was at $26,990 drive away for much of last year and the price may limbo to that level again in the lead up to the end of the year or early next, to clear 2015 stock. This is not an inside tip, merely an educated guess on my part.

    Good luck and let me know if I can help any further. I hope I'm still driving big distances in my 80s.
