The Second Generation of Porsche's Esteemed Sports SUV

The Cayenne, with its assertive front air intakes, symbolizes its powerful presence. Every detail is refined to exude a fierce aura, hinting at its latent power.

Among the "Cayenne," "Cayenne S," and "Cayenne Turbo" models now available for reservation, the "Cayenne Turbo" features a center air intake enlarged more than other models to accommodate its immense engine power, giving it an even more commanding face.

Each Cayenne model is equipped with a unique engine featuring Direct Fuel Injection, which reduces fuel consumption and emissions while increasing output and torque per liter. Despite their large displacement, these engines are surprisingly lightweight and compact.

For instance, the Cayenne Turbo is powered by a 4.8-liter V8 twin-turbo engine, delivering a maximum output of 368 kW (500 ps) at 6,000 rpm and a peak torque of 700 Nm between 2,250-4,500 rpm. It achieves a top speed of 275 km/h and an astonishing 0-100 km/h acceleration in just 5.1 seconds.

This second generation lives up to its name, "Cayenne," which evokes "adventure" and "the joy of living." Anticipation is high for the long-awaited reservations to begin.

BRAND HISTORY
PORSCHE (Porsche) is a sports car brand representing Germany, earning overwhelming support from skilled drivers worldwide. Its origins trace back to 1931. Ferdinand Porsche, a genius engineer who distinguished himself from his twenties, gained experience as technical director at Daimler before establishing the "Porsche Design Office" in Stuttgart, Germany, to work independently. From then on, he was entrusted with developing various vehicles for automobile manufacturers. Among his most famous works is the "Volkswagen Beetle," which significantly contributed to motorization as Germany's "people's car."

The first car to bear his name as a manufacturer was the "356," introduced in 1948. Since then, Porsche has released sports cars such as the "911," "924," and "928," while also focusing on motorsport. For example, they have achieved 16 victories in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, considered the world's most grueling race, and contributed to three F1 series championships as an engine supplier, accumulating a brilliant track record. It goes without saying that their technological prowess and dedication to driving performance continue to live on in their products today.

Currently, Porsche boasts a highly popular lineup, including the "911," which remains a top-tier sports car even 45 years after its debut; the open-top sports car "Boxster"; its coupe counterpart, the "Cayman"; and the premium sports SUV, the "Cayenne." All these models are highly acclaimed.
