The only thing running low on long journeys:
fuel consumption.
Cayenne Diesel.
Boasting outstanding performance and
efficiency, the Cayenne Diesel is ideal for
longer journeys – offering high levels of
torque, while fuel consumption remains
low.
Its 3.0-litre V6 turbo-diesel engine is now
more powerful and refined, and approxi-
mately 20 kg lighter.
1)
The unit generates
180 kW (245 hp) and maximum torque of
550 Nm. The sprint to 100 km/h (62 mph)
requires just 7.6 seconds. Top speed
is 220 km/h (136 mph). Fuel consump-
tion now comes in at just 7.2 l/100 km
(39.2 mpg) in the combined test cycle.
2)
Direct fuel injection comes courtesy
of a common-rail injection system.
The piezoelectric injectors enable mul-
tiple injections at a pressure of up to
2,000 bar, ensuring optimum distribution
of the air/fuel mixture – for improved
dynamics.
The turbocharger on the Cayenne Diesel
features Variable Turbine Geometry
(VTG, p. 44). Combined with optimised
channelling of the intake air, it enhances
the charging effect, thereby generating
a higher output and impressive torque,
even at low engine speeds.
The standard eight-speed Tiptronic S
includes gearshift controls on the steer-
ing wheel. Transmitting the high torque
of the Cayenne Diesel smoothly and
effectively, the eight gears are designed
to facilitate both economical driving with
low fuel consumption and performance
driving with emphatic acceleration.
Porsche Traction Management (PTM)
permanent all-wheel drive with self-
locking centre differential transmits
the car’s power to all four wheels with
optimum precision and control.
Available as a no-cost option, the
100-litre fuel tank increases the range
to well over 1,000 km (620 miles) while
keeping the engine rpm and noise levels
low.
The Cayenne Diesel: proof that a 100-
metre sprinter can also run a marathon.
