2023 Range Rover vs. 2022 Porsche Cayenne

Should you choose the Cayenne or the Range Rover if you’re looking for an SUV that can do it all? Although the Cayenne is a fierce performer, we think this matchup breaks down firmly in the Range Rover’s favor. With a stronger standard engine, superior off-road prowess, and a more spacious, luxurious cabin, the Range Rover is a force to be reckoned with. Our Range Rover vs. Porsche Cayenne matchup breaks down all the details.

Performance: Cayenne or Range Rover?

First things first: no Porsche can go head to head with a Land Rover on the toughest trails near Newport Beach and Newport Beach. Technology features including Land Rover 4×4, Terrain Response® 2, and ​​All-Terrain Progress Control (ATPC) make the new Range Rover incredibly versatile—and Porsche has no answer for these standard inclusions.

Okay, but what if you intend to spend most of your time on pavement? Is it still better to choose the Range Rover? Yes, for two reasons:

• The base-level Range Rover offers 60 more horsepower than the base-level Porsche Cayenne.
• The 2023 Range Rover is available as a plug-in hybrid with excellent fuel economy and an impressive all-electric range of 48 miles! Although the Cayenne is also offered in a PHEV configuration, it only gets about 17 miles on electric power alone.

Interior Features & Capacites: Cayenne or Range Rover?

As standard, the Range Rover costs more than the Porsche Cayenne—but it also comes equipped with many standard features that require (expensive) upgrades in the Porsche. The Range Rover’s list of advantages includes all of the following:

• Heated front seats
• Sliding Panoramic roof
• Powered Gesture Tailgate
• Heated leather steering wheel
• 16-way power-adjustable front seats (vs. 8-way in the Porsche)
• Dual touchscreen interface (Touch Pro™ Duo)
• Tri-Zone Automatic Climate Control
• And more!

Is the Cayenne or the Range Rover a better fit for families? Crucially, only the Range Rover offers an optional Long Wheelbase configuration with seating for up to seven passengers. The Porsche Cayenne only offers seating for up to five.

The availability of an extended wheelbase also allows the Range Rover to offer up to 92.8 cubic feet of cargo space when the rear seats are flat. The Cayenne SUV never offers more than 60.3 cubic feet of cargo space.
