Porsche has updated its Cayenne range with the addition of the most powerful model yet, the 2009 model Turbo S powered by a 550hp (404kW) forced induction 4.8L V8 engine. The Turbo S’s enhanced performance relative to that of the regular Turbo model is due to its modified exhaust system and improvements in engine control.

In addition to the added power, there has also been an increase in maximum torque by 50Nm to 750Nm within an engine speed range of 2,250rpm to 4,500rpm. This is enough to see the car accelerate from zero to 100km/h in 4.8 seconds and reach a top speed of 280km/h.
From the outside, the Turbo S can be recognized by 21in SportPlus alloys housed within painted wheel arches and a sports exhaust system with quad tail pipes made from aluminum. The air intake grills and wheel arches are painted the same color as the car body and a new ‘lava gray metallic’ option has been added to the color palette.
Porsche has also added its carbon-brake option to the Cayenne lineup for the first time, with 410mm discs and six-piston calipers up front and 370mm discs with four-piston calipers at the rear.
Inside, there’s a voice-operated navigation system, Bluetooth connectivity, a TV module and a 14 speaker Bose stereo system. The Turbo S will be introduced into the market as from August 2008 and will be priced from €111,400.

Press Release

Porsche reveals the new Cayenne Turbo S for the first time

World Premiere at “Auto China 2008” in Beijing

Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG, Stuttgart, has extended its third model line by the addition of the top of the range Cayenne Turbo S. The Turbo S, the most powerful Cayenne of them all, is driven by a 4.8 liter V8 engine with twin turbo forced induction, delivering 550 hp (404 kW).

The Turbo S is Porsche’s response to the wishes of its customers. There is huge demand, especially in the new emerging markets of Eastern Europe and Asia, for exclusive sports-style SUVs with top quality physical handling dynamics. Despite the fact that Porsche has managed to give the new Turbo S even better drive performance than the regular Turbo model (500 hp / 368 kW), the fuel efficiency figures for the Turbo S are exactly the same as those for the Cayenne Turbo (as per the calculation methods stipulated under the New European Operating Cycle – NEFZ).

From the outside, the Turbo S can be recognized by its 21 inch SportPlus alloy wheels housed within its painted wheel arches and by a sports exhaust system with four tail pipes made from aluminum investment casting. The air intake grills and wheel arches are painted the same color as the car body. The new understated yet elegant “lava gray metallic” paint option is exclusive to the Turbo S.

All models of the Turbo S have a chassis which benefits from air suspension, not to mention suspension leveling and ride-height control, along with Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), which – once again as standard – is combined with Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC) and Servotronic speed-sensitive variable power steering.

With the introduction of the Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB) as an option, Porsche underscores its leading position as a provider of ultra durable brake disks made from carbon fiber ceramic composite. When the 2009 range is introduced, this high tech brake disk – originally developed for the motor sport sector – will become available for the first time in a sector other than the sports car sector, namely in the elite, top quality physical handling SUV sector. The front axle ceramic disks are 410 mm in diameter, whereas the rear axle disks are 370 mm in diameter. Deceleration takes place via six-piston calipers at the front and four-piston calipers at the rear. The PCCB is available as an option on other Cayenne models such as the Cayenne S, GTS and Turbo, subject to wheel sizes of at least 20 inches.

The high quality character of the new Cayenne top-of-the range Turbo S is emphasized by the standard equipment of the interior, the front sports seat with Comfort Memory Package, rear seating with individual seat contours, aluminum door panels showing the name plate together with leather upholstery in two exclusive dual-color combinations (black / Havana and black / steel gray) plus a leather steering wheel with padded center.

The latest generation of Porsche Communication Multimedia System Management (PCM) inclusive of navigation module with hard drive provides a full range of new, easily accessed functions actuated via a touch-screen. As with all other Cayenne models, the Cayenne Turbo S also comes with the option of voice actuation with full word recognition for navigation system destinations, universal audio interface (with MP3 connection), cell phone link-up via Bluetooth and a TV module for both analog and digital terrestrial signals. Offered as standard, the BOSE® Surround Sound System with 14 speakers features enhanced 410 Watt output and is now capable of reproducing music from audio and video DVDs in 5.1 Discrete Surround Format.

The Turbo S’s enhanced performance relative to that of the regular Turbo model is due to its modified exhaust system and improvements in engine control. In addition to the performance improvements, there has also been an increase in maximum torque by 50 Nm to 750 Nm within an engine speed range of 2,250 rpm to 4,500 rpm.

The Porsche Cayenne Turbo S can accelerate from zero to 100 km/h in 4.8 seconds and its top speed is 280 km/h. The Turbo S will be introduced into the market as from August 2008. The international basis price is EUR 111,400.

Porsche's grocery hauler with sports car genes, the Cayenne Turbo S, goes on sale Aug. 8 with a sticker price of $124,575, including shipping.

The 550-hp SUV headlines the five-vehicle Cayenne lineup, the rest of which goes on sale July 14. Prices on the holdovers rose slightly, Porsche said, because of added technology and the declining U.S. dollar.

The base Cayenne starts at $45,495, including an $895 shipping charge, and extends to the Turbo, which is $98,595. Add another $80 to the stickers on Aug. 1, when Porsche increases destination charges.

A new communication system, which launched in the Porsche 911, will be available on all of the '09 Cayennes, and includes a touchscreen, navigation, XM Satellite Radio and Bluetooth. It's standard on the Turbo and Turbo S models.

Cayennes with V8s will be available with ceramic composite brakes, which Porsche says improves deceleration and fading resistance.
