Overview
- The Cayenne Electric is now being built in series in Bratislava on the same line as petrol and hybrid Cayenne models, allowing Porsche to vary output by powertrain mix.
- Porsche’s new Smart Battery Shop in Horná Streda assembles modules under company oversight, using LG Energy Solution pouch cells before Webasto integrates the packs for vehicle installation.
- Cited figures indicate 132 modules per hour with two shifts and six modules per vehicle, implying a theoretical supply for roughly 352 cars per day, though Porsche has not disclosed official daily targets.
- The PPE-based SUV features a 113 kWh gross (108 kWh usable) structural battery with 800‑volt architecture and a two‑plate cooling system designed to sustain high fast‑charging rates and deliver more than 600 km of range.
- Separately, Bloomberg reports the board is weighing options for the planned electric 718 Boxster/Cayman due to delays and costs, with no final decision and no official comment from Porsche.
