2019 Porsche Cayenne Turbo Review - Ridiculously Fast & Refined 

What do you think about the Cayenne Turbo? Would you buy it over a BMW X5? Trackhawk?

The exhaust sounds like my grandfather snoring when the car accelerates

Normal mode driving around. Slow driver ahead. Sport response to dramatically pass them. Then goes back to normal after 20 seconds. Perfect

If you would have predicted 20 years ago that Porsche would one day make a purple 541hp twin turbo V8 SUV, people would have looked at you like you were crazy.

Sounds like a dry fart

Owned a 2019 Cayenne S that had these optional brakes. As the guys said, they are challenging to modulate for comfortable stops. However, the bigger issue is the brakes squeak. There's nothing you can do to make them not squeak. Porsche knows this is an issue and says "it's not a defect, they're racing brakes and sometimes they squeak." For us, they squeaked so bad, we ended up selling the car after 6 months. We took the car to the dealer multiple times and were told there's no solution. There is no ability to down-select to standard brakes given these are a unique size (or something like that). Car was incredible to drive, but we just couldn't take the brakes. Also agree that the radio station scrolling is poorly designed.

Exhaust sounds like there's someone pushing air through their teeth and flapping their lips! Wtf

Also ZF trans is being used for towing capacity, over the PDK gearbox.

I don't understand everyone complaining about the exhaust. It sounds like every single v8 that has featured on this channel from Mercedes to a mustang. The microphone muffles the actual sound as it's close to the exhaust tips much like every other channel on RU-vid when they pick up the noise straight from the point of contact. I can tell you in person from experience, it sounds great!

Got to drive a 2021 Cayenne Turbo today, launch control is one of the most visceral things i’ve ever experienced in a car.

Did anybody else hear that lawn mower exhaust?

On every Porsche press car you get the Porsche shield center caps will always be pointing to the wheel valve stem.

Great review! I purchased a 2019 Cayenne Turbo in January. Amazing machine. The whistling sound you referenced is not coming from the sunroof. It occurs when the active spoiler is raised. Manually lowering it on the nav screen eliminates the whistling. Your channel is my favorite car review channel on RU-vid. Keep up the great work!!

Personally I think it sounds like a tractor

My wife and I were looking for a luxury SUV with good towing capacity for a boat, fast V8, and fun to drive. We were selecting between the GLE 63 S Coupe, Trackhawk, and Cayenne Turbo S. After testing all 3 [we tested a Cayenne GTS], we chose the Cayenne Turbo S. The GLE 63 S Coupe felt too truckish. The Trackhawk was too noisy, and not in a good way. My wife is in love with the Cayenne. I enjoy driving it because it doesn't feel like you're driving a 5,000 lbs SUV, and I can hustle it around corners without worrying about careening off the other side of the road. It's luxurious. It's fast. It's quiet on the road. It can tow a boat. It can go offroad with confidence. The Cayenne Turbo S truly is "all the things." So far, my only gripes are the center console has pretty much zero storage space for anything, the cup holders are too shallow, the armrest isn't comfortably usable when you have cups, and the "peasant blockers" rattle when they're not deployed.

I think the new 2019 Macan hits the sweet spot for Porsche Infotainment, with the bigger touchscreen and the analog buttons

The whistle from the air happens when you have the spoiler in the up position, I would leave it down in Auto mode

I am addicted to this channel! Great content

For the love of God you almost forgot to do the visor test? I was at the point of breaking out in tears! 😂😂😂
