Tested: 2025 Porsche Cayenne GTS Brings the V-8 Thunder
A question pops into my wife's head about 30 minutes after she climbs into the 2025 Porsche Cayenne GTS: "Does this car make you want to drive faster?" (Oh, no. Here it comes.) But then she continues: "Because I would. I mean, just listen to that exhaust." (Wait, what?) Well, yeah, sometimes I look down at the speedo and find I'm going much faster than I intend to. But do you think that exhaust sound is a bit too much? "No, not at all," she replies. "It's got a good growl." Sound On She's right. The new Cayenne GTS has a most excellent growl. It starts when you fire up the car, and it really brings the thunder when you stand on the loud pedal. And unlike the last Cayenne GTS we tested, a 2021 Coupe, this vehicle wasn't equipped with the tuned exhaust that was optional on Coupe back then. No matter. A rorty exhaust is now standard on the 2025 GTS, and it's one reason why the base price has crept up. View Exterior Photos James Lipman | Car and Driver Matting the throttle now uncorks 86 decibels, as opposed to 82 decibels with the tuned pipes back in 2021. When you're cruising at 70 mph, it still settles into a very civilized 66-decibel hum, just like before. The extra noise at wide-open throttle just might have something to do with the tweaks to the V-8 engine. It now makes 493 horsepower and 486 pound-feet of torque, which is 40 horses and 29 pound-feet more than the previous version. Changes include a higher-pressure fuel-injection system, electronically controlled wastegates to speed up throttle response, mono-scroll turbos instead of twin-scroll units to increase resistance to higher exhaust temperatures, and a new variable-lift intake cam that improves high-rpm performance while still allowing for mid-rpm fuel economy. Highway fuel economy is up some 3 mpg to 22 mpg. Some of these changes are shared with the new V-8 Cayenne S, but the GTS has been calibrated to run more boost. There are also quicker gearchanges in Sport and Sport Plus modes. View Interior Photos James Lipman | Car and Driver Faster Acting All of this amounts to superior acceleration times. The new GTS gets to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds, continues on to 100 mph in 9.2 seconds, and completes the quarter-mile in 12.1 seconds at 112 mph. Compare that with the 2021 Cayenne GTS Coupe, which did 60 mph in 3.9 seconds, 100 mph in 10.2 seconds, and the quarter-mile in 12.5 seconds at 110 mph. This is despite that the new model is heavier, measuring 5145 pounds to the old Coupe's 5014 pounds. HIGHS: V-8 thunder, composed ride, grippy handling and braking. It doesn't end there. All new Cayennes use a larger tire diameter than before, 31 inches instead of the prior model's 30 inches. The new rubber essentially rolls over cracks that the last car seemed to fall into, although an extra inch isn't that significant. The GTS certainly does ride more smoothly than you'd expect, even in Sport mode. Credit also goes to the change to two-valve adaptive dampers, with separate control of compression and rebound, and two-chamber air springs, which are set to make the GTS ride 0.4 inch lower. Our car was also fitted with the Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control's active anti-roll bars ($3580) and rear-axle steering ($1280). View Exterior Photos James Lipman | Car and Driver As before, the tires are Pirelli P Zero Corsa PZC4 (sized in 285/40 front and 315/35 at the rear to fit our new test car's 22-inch wheels instead of the previous gen's 21-inchers). The GTS's front end also has an additional 0.6 degree of negative camber compared with other Cayennes, thanks to the adoption of upper pivot bearings from the Cayenne Turbo GT. The result: a directness and a degree of control that are unmatched yet don't stray into the realm of hyperactivity. The chassis takes a balanced set through corners and holds the line resolutely. On the limit at the skidpad, it grips just a wee bit better than the previous model, 1.01 to 1.00 g's, despite being 131 pounds heavier. With larger brake rotors, particularly in front—16.1 inches versus of the 2021 model's 15.4 inches—the GTS sees improved brake performance as well. The iron rotors hauled our Cayenne down from 70 mph in just 144 feet, versus 153 feet for the previous model. The difference is even more dramatic in stops from 100 mph: 294 feet for the new version versus 313 for the old one. And this is with zero drama, zero brake fade. LOWS: Wonky start-stop tuning, no quiet mode for early-morning starts. One thing we didn't like as much revealed itself at low speeds around town. Just puttering around in Normal mode, the auto start-stop system was too eager to shut down the engine, even when in a rolling stop. Sport mode is an easy remedy because it disables start-stop, but we don't mind this feature if it's done well. Porsche clearly has some work to do here. View Interior Photos James Lipman | Car and Driver Money Matters Inside, our Cayenne GTS was thoughtfully appointed yet didn't go overboard with Porsche's options list. The most extravagant addition here is the color-matched interior, which was $2980 for Carmine Red accents that match the exterior. The $2450 Premium package is a grouping of essentials that you probably want anyway: a panoramic sunroof, adaptive cruise control with lane-keeping assist, heated rear seats. Finally, for $1720, there are the utterly fantastic adaptive 18-way power sport seats (with memory, thank goodness). That's it for the interior bits, unless you want to include the $580 thermally and noise-reducing front glass or the ubiquitous $1100 Sport Chrono package, which brings along a push-to-pass button, Sport Plus mode (for the most aggressive launch-control starts), and an intermediate Sport setting for the stability control. View Interior Photos James Lipman | Car and Driver All of this made our test car amount to $145,185, which isn't crazy when you consider that our 2021 GTS Coupe stickered for $142,171. Sure, at $126,895, the base price is higher than before, but many of the items on the 2021 options list are now included because, well, everyone bought them. These include a Bose surround-sound stereo, a surround-view camera system, lane-change assist, keyless entry, soft-close doors, wireless phone charging, and auto-dimming mirrors, features amounting to $6180 worth of now-standard equipment. Heated front seats, which previously came in a front/rear package for $1060, are also now included. And let's not forget the tuned pipes of the Sport exhaust, newly standard as well. Porsche has made it clear which non-GT-spec Cayenne is the driver's model. It's the one with the extra oomph, the slightly lower ride height. The one with the bigger brakes and tweaks that give it a little more grip. The one that'll make your passengers take notice of the glorious exhaust note. And it's all in the name. The 2025 Porsche Cayenne GTS essentially means Get This Spec. View Exterior Photos James Lipman | Car and Driver VERDICT: GTS stands for Get This Spec.

His father was a retired racing driver who opened Autoresearch, a race-car-building shop, where Dan cut his teeth as a metal fabricator. Engineering school followed, then SCCA Showroom Stock racing, and that combination landed him suspension development jobs at two different automakers. His writing career began when he was picked up by (no relation) to build a testing department.

Porsche Is Using AI To Catch EV Battery Problems Before They Happen
The latest car news, reviews, and features. I'm tired of AI getting shoved into every corner of life in 2025. But, the technology does have uses in cars beyond gimmicks like fake conversational personas. Like sifting through data and identifying trends to optimize an EV battery pack, for example. That's one of the things Porsche is using AI for, and the automaker recently pulled back the curtain on how it's implementing machine learning to make its electric cars better. In a press release from earlier this month, Porsche focuses on two particular aspects of the way it's using AI to monitor battery health. First, there's the component of predictive quality assurance, which boils down to making informed insights into how the battery will age, based on data from across the company's user base. But arguably more valuable than that is the system's ability to detect anomalies, which can stop a potentially serious battery defect before it starts. Porsche doesn't explicitly mention thermal runaway in this release, but that's where my head goes as I'm reading this. In a thermal runaway, a problem with one cell quickly propagates to others. But there may be signs beforehand that something's not right, and that's why it's especially valuable that Porsche says it can monitor battery health on a cellular level and proactively warn customers, with instructions relayed through the owners' app. Porsche recently set a record at Road Atlanta for the fastest lap for a series-production electric car with the Taycan Turbo GT. Porsche Like anything related to safety in the automotive realm, you hope you never have to encounter a situation like this with your vehicle. But knowing these safeguards are in place certainly offers peace of mind. And this kind of deep learning can be leveraged in other areas, too. State of charge and charging speed, for example, should be intelligently managed for any device that incorporates a lithium-ion battery, from your smartphone to your car, to extend the pack's lifespan as long as possible. It's encouraging that Porsche seems to be using AI not to develop an in-car chatbot that will pretend to care about your problems—or something else nobody's ever asked for—but to ensure the long-term performance and safety of its products. They sum it up well in this excerpt: 'For Porsche, AI is a tool that helps the team to understand complex relationships and take all relevant aspects into account.' Using new tech to better nail the fundamentals is the kind of future we can get behind. Got tips? Send 'em our way at tips@
