The new Cayenne - our preview event

22/3/2018

On Wednesday 21 March, Porsche Centre Hatfield was delighted to unveil the new Cayenne to a packed showroom.

Eager to see the new Cayenne for the first time in the metal, Porsche Centre Hatfield welcomed over 400 guests to a champagne reception. Drinks and canapés served throughout the evening with the backdrop of live music. Mark Goody, Centre Principal of Porsche Centre Hatfield, and Neil Chester, Porsche Business Excellence Manager of Porsche Cars GB presented the third generation of the Porsche SUV, detailing the three new variants of the model now available; the Cayenne, Cayenne S and Cayenne Turbo.

The new Cayenne range is based heavily on the iconic 911 sports car: the third edition of the SUV, which has also been enhanced visually, now has mixed tyres and rear-axle steering for the first time. In addition to these typical sports car features, the on-road capabilities are further improved by active all-wheel drive, three-chamber air suspension and Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC). Despite its significantly extended standard equipment, the Cayenne weighs up to 65 kilograms less than its predecessor and remains perfectly suited to off-road use.

The standard Cayenne has a six-cylinder turbo engine and displacement of three litres, delivering 250 kW (340 hp) and developing a torque of 450 Nm. That means that even the standard Cayenne model achieves outstanding driving performance: it accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 6.2 seconds (5.9 seconds with the Sport Chrono Package), with a maximum speed of 245 km/h.
