Porsche Cayenne – the collective page of the SUV as a light commercial vehicle outside named individual types, from S and GTS to Turbo and E-Hybrid, six- and eight-cylinders from 3.0 to 4.8 litres, 176 to 368 kW

This page gathers versions of the Porsche Cayenne that are carried in the register among the vans and light commercial vehicles – vehicles that, despite being designed as passenger cars with a folding load floor, were registered as a panel van or estate with commercial-vehicle type approval. The Cayenne is Porsche's first SUV, built since 2002 at the Leipzig plant and technically closely related to the VW Touareg and Audi Q7. The type logic: S marks the higher-power version, GTS the sport-tuned and Turbo the strongest, Diesel and Hybrid or E-Hybrid the respective drive types.

The register lists here 10 versions with 176 to 368 kW from six- and eight-cylinders of 2,967 to 4,806 cm³, unladen weights from 2,134 to 2,595 kg, gross weights from 2,890 to 3,080 kg, lengths from 4,800 to 5,029 mm and widths from 1,920 to 2,000 mm.

The Cayenne made Porsche an off-road vehicle maker and remains the brand's best-selling model to this day; versions registered as commercial vehicles with the rear bench removed make use of the higher payload and the more favourable tax classification of light commercial vehicles.

On a used Cayenne, the air suspension and chassis bushes, the condition of the automatic transmission and four-wheel-drive clutch, on the eight-cylinders the timing chain, and on diesel and hybrid versions the history of the exhaust aftertreatment and high-voltage battery count; parts are well available through the dense Porsche network.
