Sime Darby Auto Performance put Malaysian prices on the all-electric Porsche Cayenne Electric on 23 August, nine months after the model’s world premiere. Paul Tan’s Automotive News and DSF.my both report the same on-the-road ladder, excluding options and insurance: RM699,000 for the base SUV, RM749,000 for the Coupé, RM759,000 for the S, RM805,000 for the S Coupé, RM969,999 for the Turbo, and RM999,999 for the Turbo Coupé. That is a local list, not a UK, US, or UAE invoice. Shoppers comparing the car on GetEVCar should start from the Porsche brand hub rather than converting ringgit.

The UK figure is already public on Porsche’s own configurator: the Cayenne Electric starts from £83,200 including VAT. The same page lists launch-control outputs of 325 kW / 442 PS and 4.8 seconds to 62 mph on the base SUV, 490 kW / 666 PS and 3.8 seconds on the S, and 850 kW / 1,156 PS and 2.5 seconds on the Turbo. Combined WLTP range on that UK listing runs 358–399 miles for the base car, 366–405 miles for the S, and 350–387 miles for the Turbo. Porsche Cars North America’s March 2026 S-model release put US MSRPs at $109,000, $126,300, and $163,000 respectively, before a $2,350 destination fee. We do not have a confirmed AED list from Porsche Middle East, so UAE shoppers should treat any online conversion as unofficial and ask Porsche Centre Dubai.

Hardware underneath the Malaysian cars matches what GetEVCar already catalogues. Paul Tan and DSF.my both describe a 113 kWh pack on the Volkswagen Group Premium Platform Electric that also underpins the Macan Electric. The electrical system is 800-volt. Direct-current charging is listed at up to 390 kW, or 400 kW in ideal conditions; both Malaysian outlets and Porsche UK put a 10–80% top-up under 16 minutes. Standard AC is 11 kW, with 22 kW optional. Wireless inductive charging at 11 kW is the headline convenience feature; Porsche UK still dates factory availability of that pad to the second half of 2026 at the earliest. Paul Tan calls the pack NMC; DSF.my describes graphite-silicon chemistry. Those labels are not contradictory on their own, but they are not the same sentence, so treat cell chemistry as manufacturer-sourced rather than independently lab-tested.

Performance numbers need the launch-control asterisk. Paul Tan splits the base dual-motor SUV into 408 PS (300 kW) in normal mode and 442 PS (325 kW) with launch control — the 300 kW continuous figure is what our model page currently shows. The S is 544 PS / 400 kW rising to 666 PS / 490 kW; the Turbo is 857 PS / 650 kW rising to 1,156 PS / 850 kW. DSF.my quoted the launch-control peaks without the two-step split, which is why its base figure (436 PS) sits a few horsepower away from Paul Tan and Porsche UK. Zero-to-100 km/h times of 4.8, 3.8, and 2.5 seconds, and top speeds of 230, 250, and 260 km/h, line up across Paul Tan, DSF.my, and the UK product page. Adaptive air suspension with PASM is standard. Porsche Active Ride, rear-steer, and carbon-ceramic brakes sit on the options list.

WLTP range is where body style matters. Paul Tan lists 642 km for the base SUV, 652 km for the S, and 624 km for the Turbo; the Coupé’s lower drag (Cd as low as 0.23 versus 0.25) lifts those figures to 661, 669, and 637 km. DSF.my independently puts SUV range in a 623–653 km band and the Coupé peak at 669 km. GetEVCar’s live Cayenne Electric card shows 642 km and the Cayenne Turbo Electric card 623 km — close enough to Paul Tan’s Turbo SUV number that we are not restating a different car. CLTC-style China figures are not in play here; these are WLTP claims.

Two context points for buyers in our three markets. First, the electric Cayenne is sold alongside the petrol and plug-in hybrid Cayenne, not as a replacement — Paul Tan and Porsche’s US newsroom both stress that trio of powertrains. Second, the car already had a public outing in Dubai at Icons of Porsche in November 2025, after desert testing Porsche’s newsroom described in some detail (245 mm off-road ride height, 550 mm wading depth on Paul Tan’s reading). That appearance does not by itself prove current UAE allocation or a local AED sticker. If you are shopping a large electric SUV in the Emirates, the UK, or the US, compare the live spec sheet, then confirm pack size, DC peak, and options with a dealer rather than assuming the Malaysian launch extras travel with the car.
