The #cayenneturbosehybrid is the most powerful and fastest Cayenne yet. Its power output of 500 kW (680 PS) and its maximum torque of 900 Nm enable it to accelerate from zero to 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds and reach a top speed of 295 km/h. A variety of innovative chassis systems enables a perfect combination of sports car agility, long-distance comfort and off-road capability.

The new top-of-the-range model demonstrated typical #Porsche performance on different types of terrain as part of an unofficial record lap at the Gotland Ring in Sweden. The race track in the North of the Baltic island with the same name is only partly surfaced with asphalt: while a 3.2-kilometre long section is already in use, an additional 4.2 kilometres of the overall track, set for completion at the end of 2021, is surfaced with gravel. The circuit and gravel section were combined for a film shoot. German #racing driver and TV presenter Tim Schrick completed a lap in a manually timed 3 minutes and 51 seconds.

“It was rallycross with a powerful hybrid SUV – an impressive experience,” test driver Schrick remarked. “The lap time shouldn’t be taken too seriously. We don’t have any lap times to compare it with and the vehicle was fitted with used road tyres. However, the way the #cayenneturbosehybrid completed laps of the Gotland Ring underlined its outstanding performance and diversity. Thanks to the car’s precise feedback, both on asphalt as well as gravel, and the perfect combination of the different chassis systems, it can be driven on the limit almost playfully and still controlled safely at any moment.”

The #cayenneturbosehybrid features a host of standard chassis systems designed to boost performance. They simultaneously increase driving safety and comfort. Only the rear-axle steering is an optional extra on the top-of-the-range model.
