This one will be a tough competition to the Audi RS 6 Avant and the Mercedes E 63 AMG when it is going to be launched in India presently. The headlight is as same as the present one i think. But I don't like the tail light particularly, looks like they have taken the tail lamps from a ferrari.

But it is still maintaining the butch looks. [clap]

Porsche held a spectacular event on Tuesday in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen to unveil the new Cayenne. The third generation of the successful model, more than 760,000 units of which have been sold since 2002, is a completely new development. The vehicle will combine even more of the typical Porsche performance with excellent everyday practicality. Despite its extended standard equipment, the Cayenne is up to 65 kilograms lighter thanks to its intelligent lightweight construction. At launch, two turbocharged six-cylinder petrol engines will be available, with 250 kW (340 hp; Fuel consumption combined 9.2–9.0 l/100 km; CO2-emissions 209–205 g/km) in the Cayenne and 324 kW (440 hp; Fuel consumption combined 9.4–9.2 l/100 km; CO2-emissions 213–209 g/km) in the Cayenne S.

We have completely redeveloped our successful model. It has been visibly and tangibly improved and perfected in all respects. The Cayenne has also been digitalised and networked throughout to give it a forward-thinking design”, says Oliver Blume, Chairman of the Executive Board at Porsche AG.

More Porsche, more Cayenne

Porsche has also enhanced the look of the Cayenne significantly: “Our primary objective was to accentuate the character of the vehicle. More Porsche, more Cayenne. The new Cayenne is more precise, elegant, athletic and expressive”, says Michael Mauer, Director of Style at Porsche AG, who unveiled the style of the new Cayenne alongside Peter Varga (Director Exterior Design) and Ivo van Hulten (Director Interior Design).

The first appearance of the new Cayenne at the Porsche Museum was accompanied by “Sinfonie des Lebens” (Symphony of Life), a piece composed by Jesse Milliner and performed by the Bohemian Symphony Orchestra Prague and the wind ensemble from the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, a partner of Porsche. The symphony was complemented by dancers, live musicians and an elaborate light show.

Cayenne and Cayenne S market launch

The new Porsche SUV is launching in two variants: The Cayenne with a six-cylinder turbo engine and displacement of three litres delivers 250 kW (340 hp), developing a torque of 450 Nm. That means that even the standard 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). The maximum speed is 245 km/h. The second model to launch is the Cayenne S. It is driven by a 2.9-litre V6 engine with twin turbocharging. This engine, which has also been newly developed, delivers 324 kW (440 hp), achieving a torque of 550 Nm – 15 kW (20 hp) more than its predecessor. Accordingly, the vehicle accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in just 5.2 seconds (with Sport Chrono Package: 4.9 seconds). The maximum speed is 265 km/h.

The Cayenne 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 as standard, Porsche 4D Chassis Control, three-chamber air suspension and the Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC) electronic roll stabilisation system. 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.

Faster on the road, even more impressive on rough terrain: Tiptronic S and PTM

The Cayenne’s expanded performance range, improving both sportiness and comfort, is due in no small part to the new eight-speed Tiptronic S gearbox. Shorter response times and sportier ratios in the lower gears enhance both on-road performance and off-road capability. At the other end of the expanded spread between comfort and sportiness, the long-transmission eighth gear ensures low torques, optimised fuel consumption and relaxed driving.

New-gen Porsche Cayenne priced from Rs 1.19 crore


Porsche India will introduce the new, third-gen Cayenne on October 17. The company had earlier announced pricing for the top-spec Cayenne Turbo back in May. Now, we’ve exclusively got our hands on the complete pricing for the third-gen Porsche Cayenne range.

The new Cayenne will have three variants in India. The most affordable of the lot will be the Porsche Cayenne S that is priced from Rs 1.19 crore. The next model in the range will be the Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid that costs Rs 1.58 crore, followed by the top-spec Porsche Cayenne Turbo that went on sale earlier this year at a price of Rs 1.92 crore.

The Cayenne S comes with a 2.9 litre turbo-petrol V6 motor good for 440hp and 550Nm of torque. The Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid comes with a a 3.0-litre V6 with 462hp and 700Nm of torque working in tandem with a 14.1kWh battery while the top-spec Cayenne Turbo gets a 4.0-litre twin-turbo, V8 petrol motor generating 550hp and 770Nm of torque. Unlike the second-gen model, Porsche will not be bringing a diesel engine with the new one.

In terms of design, the new Cayenne borrows a lot of cues from its sedan stable-mate, the Panamera. At the back, it features a Panamera-esque continuous light band for the tail-lamps and stop lamps. The Porsche lettering stretches horizontally across the centre as well. At the front, it gets a re-worked grille and features Porsche’s signature four-point LED DRLs in the headlamps, which also now feature the Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS).

The cabin of the new Cayenne is heavily inspired by the Panamera’s interior with a large 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system being the centrepiece. Other updates include glass-like touch surfaces for the centre console buttons that provide acoustic and haptic feedback.

The SUV is built on Volkswagen Group’s MLB-Evo platform that also underpins other SUVs like the Bentley Bentayga and the Lamborghini Urus. The new Cayenne is longer and wider in its proportions compared to the older model, but will be lighter by up to 65kg owing to the extensive use of aluminium for the body panels. However, the wheelbase remains the same as the outgoing Cayenne.

Bookings for the new Cayenne range in India are open with deliveries being promised in December this year or January next year.

The Cayenne is Porsche’s best-selling model in India and rivals the likes of the Range Rover Sport and the BMW X5 M in our market.

All prices, ex-showroom, India
