They are priced at Rs. 1.021 crore, Rs. 1.21 crore, Rs. 1.185 crore and Rs. 1.78 crore respectively (all prices ex-showroom Maharashtra).

The new Cayenne gets more badder with a spruced up engine without compromising on fuel efficiency.

Then we have the all new 3.6-litre V6 bi-turbo engine of the Cayenne S which produces a maximum power of 420bhp at 6000 rpm – which is a gain of 20 bhp. It comes equipped with a standard eight-speed Tiptronic S transmission, which can reach 100 kmph from standstill in just 5.5 seconds. This is 0.4 seconds faster than its predecessor.

Coming to the cream of the crop, we have the Cayenne Turbo powered by a 4.8-litre bi-turbo V8 engine that churns pout 520bhp. Thus, it can accelerate from a zero to 100 kmph in a mere 4.5 seconds, while it has a top speed of 279 kmph.

The new Porsche Cayenne embodies the ultimate Porsche traits, class-leading performance and outstanding driveability. No matter the road conditions, the new Cayenne delivers a unique automotive experience and we expect our customers to share in the excitement around this thrilling evolution.
