Now available to order: The All-new Cayenne S Coupé with 440 PSPowerful V6 twin turbo engine supplements range
Shanghai/Stuttgart. Porsche is launching another powerful variant of the Cayenne Coupé: the all-new Cayenne S Coupé, which boasts a 2.9 litre V6 engine featuring twin turbocharging and developing 324 kW (440 PS). The maximum torque of 550 Nm guarantees powerful acceleration. This SUV coupé accelerates from a standing start to 100 km/h in 5.0 seconds in combination with the standard Sport Chrono Package. This figure drops to 4.9 seconds with the three optional lightweight sports packages. The top speed is 263 km/h. In addition to the Sport Chrono Package, the standard equipment has seen its sportiness enhanced, including speed-sensitive Power Steering Plus, 20-inch alloy wheels, Park Assist at the front and rear including reversing camera and Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM). With more standard configurations exclusively for the Chinese market, including ambient lighting, privacy glass, ionizer and side airbags at the rear seats, the Coupé also promises optimised comfort. The all-new Cayenne S Coupé is now available for order in China at the manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) of 1,236,000 RMB including VAT.
Porsche is extending the model range with the Cayenne S Coupé, together with the Cayenne Coupé with 250 kW (340 PS), the Cayenne Turbo Coupé with 404 kW (550 PS) and the plug-in Cayenne E-Hybrid Coupé with 284 kW (386 PS). The highlights of the Coupé include sharper proportions with a unique rear section, an adaptive rear spoiler, two different roof concepts and a rear seat bench with the characteristics of individual seats, with a sitting position that is lowered by 30 millimetres compared to the Cayenne. The vehicle features a 2.16 m2 panoramic fixed glass roof as standard or optionally a contoured carbon roof with a typical sports car look.
Innovative six-cylinder engine with central turbo layout
The 2.9 litre twin turbo engine of the Cayenne S Coupé delivers its maximum torque of 550 Nm across a wide engine speed range between 1,800 and 5,500 rpm. Both exhaust turbo-chargers have been arranged in a central turbo layout inside the cylinder V. This results in an engine with compact dimensions, allowing it to be installed in a lower position inside the vehicle. This in turn lowers the centre of gravity and improves lateral dynamics. The shortened exhaust paths between the combustion chambers and the turbochargers produce a particularly spontaneous engine response and a faster build-up in power. The exhaust manifold has been integrated into the cylinder head, which reduces the weight and means that the manifold is surrounded by coolant. This ensures highly efficient combustion, particularly under full load.
More dynamic proportions and specific design elements
A roof line that drops significantly more steeply towards the rear also lends the Cayenne S Coupé a particularly dynamic appearance. This effect is supported by a fixed roof spoiler, which accentuates the distinctive Coupé silhouette. The front wind-screen and A-pillar are shallower than in the Cayenne, courtesy of a roof edge that has been lowered by around 20 millimetres. Newly designed rear doors and wings broaden the shoulders of the vehicle by 18 millimetres, contributing to its overall muscular impression. In each Cayenne Coupé model, a fixed roof spoiler is combined with the new adaptive rear spoiler as part of Porsche Active Aerodynamics (PAA). The spoiler is harmoniously integrated into the vehicle silhouette and extends by 135 millimetres at speeds of 90 km/h and above, increasing the downforce on the rear axle. This has benefits for driving stability.
