Porsche starts production of the Cayenne Electric

02 Feb Porsche starts production of the Cayenne Electric

(Oilandgaspress) -] The new Cayenne Electric pushes the boundaries. With an output of up to 850 kW (1,156 hp), the top-of-the-range Cayenne Turbo is the most powerful Porsche production model of all time. The new generation also impresses with the largest screen area of a Porsche to date and a high response speed of the Porsche Communication Management (PCM). In addition, the Cayenne has never been so extensively customized.

Together with Porsche Werkzeugbau GmbH, Porsche has set up the Porsche Smart Battery Shop in Horná Streda, a state-of-the-art production site for the next generation of battery modules. The close integration with Porsche Toolmaking was a key success factor: competencies from prototype production could be seamlessly transferred to series production. In a precisely controlled process consisting of cell preparation, stacking, laser welding, foaming, cold plate integration and end-of-line testing, the modules are created under complete quality control.

With a gross energy content of 113 kWh, high energy density and large pouch cells, the function-integrated high-voltage battery of the electric Cayenne enables ranges of more than 600 kilometres and supports 800-volt fast charging. Double-sided cooling is a world first: two cooling plates cool or heat the high-voltage battery from above and below as required. This allows the optimal temperature window to be achieved more effectively.

The Cayenne Electric celebrated its world premiere in mid-November 2025. Production in Bratislava has also already started – on a line with the models with combustion engines and hybrid drives. This flexible production enables Porsche to react quickly to changes in demand. In order to further expand its own battery expertise in a targeted manner, the sports car manufacturer is also relying on battery modules developed entirely in-house for the Cayenne Electric. These are manufactured in the Porsche Smart Battery Shop in Horná Streda – located around 100 kilometres northeast of Bratislava.
