Comparison Review

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Clearly, the Audi e-tron is a better financial choice over the Porsche Cayenne, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Audi e-tron is much slimmer than the Porsche Cayenne, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. When looking at overall length, the Audi e-tron takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Porsche Cayenne.

Handling
The Audi e-tron has the same turning radius as the Porsche Cayenne, so they both maneuver the same in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Audi e-tron has a lot less horsepower than the Porsche Cayenne.

Powertrain
The Audi e-tron has much lower torque than the Porsche Cayenne, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Audi e-tron and the Porsche Cayenne. The Audi e-tron has less cargo space than the Porsche Cayenne, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
