Published on:

Porsche India has officially launched the Cayenne Black Edition and Cayenne Coupe Black Edition, bringing a dose of stealthy elegance and exclusivity to its top-tier luxury SUV lineup. Priced at ₹1.80 crore and ₹1.87 crore respectively (ex-showroom), these special-edition models offer premium visual and comfort enhancements for discerning buyers in India.


🖤 Bold Black Design

The Black Edition models make a dramatic visual statement, featuring an all-black exterior trim. Key highlights include:

  • 21-inch RS Spider alloy wheels in a dark finish
  • Gloss‑black exterior details: badges, mirror caps, window surrounds, front apron
  • Matrix-LED headlights, side window trim, rear-view mirrors all cloaked in blacked-out styling
  • Primary paint shade: Chromite Black Metallic; additionally available in premium hues like Carrara White, Quartzite Grey, Dolomite Silver, and select special finishes for additional cost.

🛋 Interior: Dark Luxury

Inside, the monochrome theme continues with:

  • Black leather upholstery and black brushed-aluminium trim
  • Illuminated door sills with subtle ambient lighting
  • The same comfort and technology package as the standard Cayenne: 14-way power-adjustable front seats, panoramic sunroof, Bose® surround‑sound system with Dolby Atmos®, and a 14‑speaker audio system across both body styles.

🔧 Performance & Powertrain

Under the hood, both Black Edition variants retain the standard 3.0-litre V6 turbo petrol engine, delivering 353 hp and 500 Nm of torque. Power is managed via an eight-speed torque-converter automatic gearbox and full-time AWD. Despite its visual exclusivity, the Black Edition offers no performance upgrade over the standard model.


💰 Price & Value Proposition

  • Cayenne Black Edition: ₹1.80 crore (ex-showroom), ₹31 lakh premium over the standard Cayenne (₹1.49 crore)
  • Cayenne Coupe Black Edition: ₹1.87 crore (ex-showroom), ₹32 lakh premium over the standard Coupe (₹1.55 crore).

Buyers choosing alternative paint options beyond Chromite Black Metallic may pay up to an additional ₹7.3 lakh, while exclusive Paint-to-Sample or Dreams/Legends finishes can add as much as ₹20 lakh to the price tag.


🎯 Why Consider the Black Edition?

  1. Distinctive Identity: The all-black aesthetic gives the Cayenne a stealth-luxury persona distinct from regular models.
  2. Bundled Premium Features: With signature trims, upgraded alloys, and inclusive audio and interior packages, buyers get a well-curated high-end spec without manual options engineering.
  3. Optimal for Urban Prestige Buyers: Positioned for buyers in metros like Mumbai, Delhi‑NCR, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Pune who value personality as much as performance.

⚠️ Things to Know

  • The Black Edition is visual/metropolitan-centric—no added engine output or dynamic enhancements.
  • Customization costs can escalate sharply with special paint choices or bespoke colour programs.
  • Deliveries in India are expected towards late 2025 or early 2026, following initial global unveilings like Goodwood in July 2025.
