The Grecale can travel with zero emissions for 206 to 245 miles (dependent on model). The Cayenne can’t move without running its internal combustion engine.
An engine control system that can shut down some of the engine’s cylinders helps improve the Grecale Trofeo’s fuel efficiency. The Cayenne doesn’t offer a system that can shut down part of the engine.
Chassis
The Maserati Grecale may be more efficient, handle and accelerate better because it weighs about 200 to 550 pounds less than the Porsche Cayenne.
The Grecale is 3.3 inches shorter than the Cayenne, making the Grecale easier to handle, maneuver and park in tight spaces.
Cargo Capacity
Pulling a handle automatically lowers the Grecale’s rear seats, to make changing between passengers and cargo easier. The Cayenne doesn’t offer automatic folding seats.
Ergonomics
The Grecale has a standard remote vehicle starting system, so the vehicle can be started from inside the driver's house. This allows the driver to comfortably warm up the engine before going out to the vehicle. The climate system will also automatically heat or cool the interior. The Cayenne doesn’t offer a remote starting system.
If the windows are left open on the Grecale the driver can close them all from a distance using the remote. On a hot day the driver can also lower the windows the same way. The driver of the Cayenne can only operate the windows from inside the vehicle, with the ignition on.
To improve rear visibility by keeping the rear window clear, the Grecale has a standard rear fixed intermittent wiper with a full on position. The rear wiper standard on the Cayenne only has an intermittent setting, so in a hard rain visibility isn’t as good.
To shield the driver and front passenger’s vision over a larger portion of the windshield and side windows, the Grecale has standard extendable sun visors. The Cayenne doesn’t offer extendable visors.
The Grecale offers an optional 115-volt a/c outlet in the cargo area, allowing you to recharge a laptop or run small household appliances without special adapters that can break or get misplaced. The Cayenne doesn’t offer a house-current electrical outlet.
