Restyled Benchmark Porsche SUVs -
Featuring More Powerful and Fuel Efficient Engines and Advanced Stability System
...Make Their Worldwide Debut at North American International Auto Show
ATLANTA, GA, Dec. 4, 2006 Four years after their stunning
debut in the world market, the next generation of the highly
successful Porsche Cayenne and its Turbo and S variants will
be seen for the first time at next month’s North American
International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. The trio of Porsche
SUVs incorporates attractive new styling, enhanced engine
performance, and innovative handling technology.
To increase power and torque, as well as fuel economy,
the engines on all three new Cayenne models are equipped with
direct gasoline injection, known at Porsche as Direct Fuel Injection
(DFI). To improve the Cayenne’s already exceptional handling,
directional stability, and ride comfort, an inventive new Porsche
Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC) is available as an option on each
of the new SUVs.
More information on the new Porsche Cayenne, Cayenne S, and
Cayenne Turbo will be available at the NAIAS Porsche press
conference on January 8. Designated as 2008 models, the trio of new
Porsche SUVs will arrive at North American Porsche dealerships in
March of 2007.
