Porsche Cayenne electric car launched with pioneering wireless charging technology
The Porsche Cayenne electric car will become the first SUV to apply 11 kW wireless charging, bringing maximum convenience to users from 2026.
Porsche is changing the way consumers approach electric vehicles by equipping the Cayenne Electric with inductive charging technology.
This is the world's first wireless charging system for a commercial electric vehicle, operating at up to 11 kW.
About 75% of charging needs take place at home, so this technology is expected to bring more convenience and simplicity to users.
How Inductive Charging Works
The system consists of a charging plate mounted on the ground and a receiver mounted under the vehicle. When the Porsche Cayenne electric car is parked in the right position, the electromagnetic field will transmit energy to the receiver to convert it into electricity to charge the battery. The user only needs to stop the car and pull the handbrake, the whole process will take place automatically without connecting the charging cable.
All managed via the My Porsche app, which helps control the loading process and manage multiple cars at once.
Performance and charging capabilities
The system’s energy transfer efficiency is up to 90%, enough to fully charge the battery overnight. The 11 kW output keeps the Cayenne Electric running smoothly on a daily basis, while the 400 kW DC fast-charging technology allows the battery to be charged from 5% to 80% in just 15 minutes – ideal for long journeys.
Safety and durability
Porsche has focused on the safety of its new technology. The wireless charging pad is designed to be waterproof, CE and UL certified, and has undergone rigorous testing by TÜV Süd.
The system is integrated with motion sensors and obstacle detection to automatically shut down when there is danger. In addition, the system also supports remote software updates, ensuring that it always maintains modernity and safety over time.
Outstanding parameters
The charging pad weighs about 50 kg with dimensions of 117 x 78 x 6 cm, easy to install in garages, carports or outdoor parking lots. Inductive charging capacity reaches 11 kW, while DC fast charging reaches a maximum of 400 kW.
All connections are supported via LTE and WLAN, allowing automatic software updates and convenient management via the app.
Distribution plan
The Porsche Wireless Charging system and the Porsche Cayenne electric car will be sold in Europe from 2026 before expanding to global markets.
Pricing has not been announced, but this will certainly be a high-end package in the luxury electric car segment. Porsche also offers professional installation services to ensure the most complete and convenient use.
The future of electric cars Porsche Cayenne
With the combination of advanced inductive charging, high-power DC fast charging and unique luminescent paint technology, the Porsche Cayenne Electric becomes a groundbreaking SUV.
The car not only brings maximum comfort to users but also opens up a new direction for the entire electric vehicle industry. This is the step that helps Porsche consolidate its leading brand position in performance, design and high-end technology experience.
