Verdict
For a Malaysian buyer, the Porsche Cayenne Coupe Electric is the harder-nosed choice: RM749,000 buys 436 hp, 835 Nm, a 4.8-second 0-100 km/h time and 661 km of stated EV range, while annual road tax is RM665. The Range Rover Sport costs RM1,698,000 and answers with a much larger 835-litre boot, 242 km/h top speed and a long equipment list, including Matrix LED headlamps, surround-view camera and powered rear sunshades. But its 396 hp, 550 Nm petrol mild-hybrid powertrain trails the Porsche outright.
Pick the Land Rover Range Rover Sport if you need the 835-litre boot, 90-litre fuel tank and its specified comfort and driver-assistance equipment.
Pick the Porsche Cayenne Coupe Electric if you want to save RM949,000 while getting 436 hp, 835 Nm, 661 km of range and 390 kW DC charging.
