We all make demands, on others and ourselves. We also make demands in terms of performance, design and exclusivity. Sometimes they are especially sophisticated. Like yours. It was clear to us, therefore, that we needed to raise the bar even higher. To increase performance and enhance the emotional experience. The goal: to surpass previous levels of driving performance – and to build the most impressive SUV ever to bear the Porsche Crest. A higher authority. The new Cayenne Turbo S.

We’ve done it all. We’ve done enough. Time to shift down a gear. No engineer at Porsche has ever had these thoughts since 1948 – and they never will. That’s a promise. After all, we know how great your desire for performance is. ‘Dr. Ing.’ – the abbreviation of our founder’s engineering title – is not just part of our company name. It also stands for the engineering artistry that is at the core of everything we do. That’s why we are committed to consistently pushing the limits of what’s technically feasible, sometimes quite emphatically. We not only put the performance values of the most powerful Cayenne model to date under scrutiny, but also its emotional appeal – as well as aspects such as design, everyday practicality and a variety of equipment and features.

The stated objective of our engineers: noticeably more of everything, including exclusivity. The figures speak for themselves: 405 kW (550 hp) and 750 Nm of torque. That’s 37 kW (50 hp) and 50 Nm more than the Cayenne Turbo. Top speed is 283 km/h. Additional technologies fitted as standard such as the Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC) active anti-roll system or Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus) also ensure that the car’s driving dynamics are second to none. However, it was about much more than setting a new benchmark in the SUV market. It was about creating a higher authority.

This supremacy is based on Intelligent Performance: the concept of offering increased power and efficiency with comparatively low fuel consumption. ‘Turbo S’ – a designation that represents the highest standards in technology and emotional appeal, along with a good dose of luxury. The same philosophy applies to the equipment and design, which are sophisticated, elegant and modern. In a word: exclusive. This is accentuated by a leather interior featuring new exclusive two-tone combinations and the use of materials such as carbon. Once again, we’ve produced a sports car that is fascinating through and through. A car that knows no bounds – as you are about to discover.

purposeful stance. The central air intake is generously proportioned, while the ‘power-domed’ engine lid is a clear reference to the sheer power and resolution within – this is particularly dominant on the Cayenne Turbo S. As any good athlete knows, a good intake of air is essential. The contours of the front section draw the eye, reflecting the car’s excellent dynamics at first glance. The coupé-like silhouette is typical of a sports car – as are the muscular rear wheel arches. The chrome-plated ‘Cayenne turbo S’ logo on the tailgate further underlines the car’s incredible performance potential. Whether your style is extravagant or purist, there’s a wide range of colours to choose from. The wheel arch extensions and roof spoiler separation edge are also painted in exterior colour as standard. For a touch of purist elegance, several components feature a high-gloss black finish: the entire air intake grille including slats as well as the exterior mirror lower trim and mirror base.
