For 2022, Porsche introduces the new Cayenne Turbo GT model, which includes maximum levels of performance and is only offered in the coupe body style. The Turbo GT rockets to the top of the Cayenne hierarchy with an enhanced version of the twin-turbo V-8 and myriad chassis enhancements. With 631 horsepower and 626 pound-feet of torque, Porsche claims the Turbo GT will go from zero to 60 mph in 3.1 seconds and complete the quarter-mile in 11.6 seconds.

Pros
Arguably the most attractive of today's SUV coupes,
incredibly engaging to drive,
multiple marvelous powertrain options.

Cons
Coupe body style compromises cargo space,
largest wheels impair ride quality,
some rivals offer similar performance for less.
