Porsche decided to unveil today the new Cayenne GTS, a more powerful variant of the new German SUV which is scheduled to debut at this year’s edition of the China Auto Show.
Under the bonnet sits a revised 4.8-liter V8 engine able to produce 414 horsepower, slightly more than the Cayenne S.
Thanks to the extra power and an eight-speed Tip-tronic S transmission, the new Cayenne GTS sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in 5,7 seconds.
Porsche says that the new model is able to reach 160 km/h in 13,3 seconds before hitting the top speed of 261 km/h. An auto start/stop system helps the powerful SUV to return a fuel economy of 10,7 liters/100 km on the European driving cycle.
In terms of styling, the new Porsche Cayenne GTS gets a new set of 20-inch RS wheels, revised front and rear bumpers, side skirts, wider wheel arches, a roof spoiler and two new exterior finishes.
A reworked suspension able to lower the ground clearance by 24 mm is available as well as the Porsche Active Suspension Management system. Pricing starts from €90,774 in Germany while the U.S. customers will benefit from a starting price of $82,050.
I would say the BMW definitely. It just seems more yonuegr and fun than the Porsche Cayenne. Now, if it was between the Porsche Cayman and the BMW, I would go for the Cayman. It’s looks are much more exotic than the BMW, and would get more attention.I would also suggest the brand new 2010 Mercedes E class coupe, very nice looks, definitely an attention getter. Also, the Audi A5 coupe, also very nice. So really the Porsche Cayman, not the Cayenne, BMW 3, Audi A5, or Benz E coupe are all fast, excellent picks, and attention getters.
