Bought a 2021 Porsche Cayenne

 


We were looking to replace our Mercedes GL450 as it was accumulating miles and it does not get the best fuel economy.  As we really loved the GL450 we were looking at newer Mercedes GLS and GLE vehicles to replace it.  We drove many of both the GLS and GLE but could not find one that really worked for us.  The newer Mercedes seats were an issue, as was the overall feel of the vehicle.  We decided to look at Porsche Cayenne and drove a couple of them.  We liked the vehicle better and ended up with this 2021 base Cayenne.  

We had driven Cayenne's in the past (at least a decade ago) and never really liked them much so we didn't expect to like the newer ones either.  However, Cayenne's changed substantially in 2019.  Back in the day, the base Cayenne V6 was anemic too.  This new turbo V6 is much better.  I really wanted the hybrid version but cars are hard to find right now.  Also, the Cayenne Hybrid is getting an upgrade for 2024 so maybe in a few years we will upgrade to one of those.  For now we are getting used to the Cayenne.
