2013 Porsche Cayenne S Diesel

In the new Porsche Cayenne S Diesel, engine power and intelligent all-wheel drive interact in an incomparable way: 850 Newton-metres of torque and Porsche Traction Management (PTM). This is the first time that Porsche is employing an eight-cylinder diesel, which immediately assumes the top position in its market segment for power, torque and efficiency.

It is also the world's only diesel V8 to offer an automatic start/stop function in this market segment. While the Cayenne Diesel with a V6 engine represents top efficiency with as much sporty performance as possible, the new Porsche Cayenne S Diesel impressively demonstrates top sports performance with as much efficiency as possible. The new V8 engine with two turbochargers always keeps a powerhouse of energy in store for the driver to call up at any time; it reacts with sporty spontaneity and performs with excellent efficiency under all circumstances. The PTM distributes the engine's powerful propulsive forces according to the specific driving situation, precisely and individually to all four wheels; in interplay with the Cayenne chassis it converts this power into forward propulsion and dynamic performance with unrivalled effectiveness. The optional Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV Plus) distributes engine power in an even sportier way.

The Porsche Cayenne S Diesel offers a driving experience that is typical of a Porsche and is yet completely new. It is emotional like a sports car, with regard to both its vehicle dynamics and its sound. Smooth engine running and the sound of an eight-cylinder reach the same levels as those of previous Porsche V8 engines. Yet, its diesel operating principle yields a level of fuel economy that makes the Cayenne S Diesel an ideal and comfortable touring vehicle for long trips: based on NEDC fuel consumption values, the car can cover about 1,200 km on a single fill of the optional 100-litre fuel tank.

The Porsche Cayenne S Diesel gets its very special character from the active PTM all-wheel drive system. It embodies the bundled Porsche competence in all-wheel drive technology. Its direct rear-axle drive gives it the driving behaviour of a rear-wheel drive vehicle - with all of the benefits in handling and precision. In a sporty and dynamic style of driving, the added effects of front-wheel drive develop in a way that is precisely adapted to the driving situation and enhances stability and traction. This situation-based intelligence of PTM also gives the Cayenne S Diesel excellent capabilities in classic measures of offroad performance. On surfaces with little grip - e.g. snow, mud or moist grass - PTM, in coordination with Porsche Stability Management (PSM), allows as much drive torque to be applied to each individual wheel as they can transmit effectively without loss of grip. Its dominant high-powered engine also makes the Porsche Cayenne S Diesel the ideal vehicle when it comes to towing and manoeuvring boat or horse trailers. Even when its maximum towing capacity of 3.5 metric tonnes is exploited, the Porsche Cayenne S Diesel still has ample power reserves in all of life's driving situations.

On its exterior, the new top diesel model is also a Cayenne S without compromises, and it bears the typical characteristics of the eight-cylinder variants. Black fins at the front highlight the open air inlets. Together with the silver-coloured brake callipers, this emphasises the sporty character of the new member of the model range. As in the Cayenne Diesel, "diesel" badges on both front wings refer to the operating principle of its V8 engine. The model logo at the rear identifies it as a Cayenne S. The standard Cayenne S III wheels create a visual accent and enable a high level of driving performance both onroad and offroad.
