The Cayenne Electric’s core competitiveness lies in its battery technology. Porsche has developed all battery modules in-house for this model, producing them at the ‘Porsche Smart Battery Shop’ located near Bratislava in Horná Streda.
This facility is a next-generation battery production hub where all processes, from cell preparation to stacking, laser welding, foaming, cooling plate integration, and final inspection, are precisely managed. Notably, it applies the same quality control system used in finished vehicle production to the battery manufacturing stage.
113kWh High-Voltage Battery
Based on LG Energy Solution Cells
