It’s been almost a year and a half since the 2nd generation Porsche Cayenne family of performance SUVs was revealed.
And now, unveiled at the Auto China 2008 motor show, 2009 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S joins the mighty range.
The refreshed Turbo S sports a powerful 4.8-liter V8 twin turbo engine capable of producing 550 hp and 750 Nm (557 lb-ft) of torque and delivering 13 mpg city/18 mpg highway fuel efficiency.
The engine is strong enough to accelerate the heavy vehicle from zero to 60mph in 4.8 seconds and help it reach the top speed of 280 km/h (174 mph).
The 2009 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S comes equipped with a set of 21-inch SportPlus alloys and ceramic composite brakes, and the Lava Gray Metallic paint option. Its corporate grill and wheel arches are painted body color.
The SUV will come to dealerships in August 2008 at a base price of €111,400.
