There’s a new baby in the Porsche family – and it’s a beaut. An even sportier vehicle has been added to the highly successful Cayenne range, and the highlights of this new Cayenne Coupé include sleeker lines with a 911-like flyline and rear end, an adaptive rear spoiler and a panoramic glass roof. Safe to say, the new Cayenne Coupé is a beauty, probably the sportiest-looking model in its class.
Porsche engines are the pinnacle of performance and the epitome of economy. Nothing is wasted, there is no excess weight. Shift-by-wire Tiptronic gear changes are smoother, quicker than ever.
On the road, it’s even better than a ‘normal’ Cayenne. It has more muscular shoulders and a smoother, more slippery aero profile with an automatic extendable spoiler that activates above 90 kph. And, like you did in your old Cayenne, you soon realise that this is a shockingly agile and enjoyable car for its size and capacity. It may be the best driver-pleasing SUVs on the road today.
Use the Mode switch with the instant Sport Response button on the steering wheel, derived from the 918 Spyder. Choose from four driving modes: Normal, Sport, SportPlus and Individual.
As you drive, you’ll feel the love that Porsche lavishes on all its family of models, especially its latest baby, the Cayenne Coupé. You’ll enjoy the engine, the steering, the suspension, the chassis, everything that keeps you sticking to the road making for a thrilling experience, while inside you’ll love the luxury, the support, the comfort, the quality, the digital technology controlling all aspects of your car and providing all your entertainment options at your fingertips.
Porsche’s digital technology is now as awesome as its performance and safety engineering.
Centre of attraction is the new buttery-smooth touchscreen that gives you easy control and set-up of all your systems and preferences. Then the multifunction sports steering wheel, with shift paddles, enable true sports car behaviour and let you achieve your potential.
Now, you realise that Porsche really care about their cars.
And, I guarantee, so will you…
