Setting the heart racing, the powerful new Cayenne Turbo GT landed in Brunei following its launch by Porsche Brunei yesterday.
Porsche Brunei General Manager Lahiru De Silva, during the unveiling at Porsche Centre Brunei in Beribi, said, “Cayenne Turbo GT delivers the ultimate in performance and exclusivity. Its superlative athleticism, sharp design and stand-out aesthetics are sure to impress Porsche fans.”
Porsche Brunei Sales Manager Anwar Ibrahim was also present.
The Turbo GT sits right at the top of the Cayenne model range promising outstanding driving dynamics with uncompromised functionality. It is equipped with a 471 kW four-litre biturbo V8 engine giving it a maximum torque of 850Nm boasting the 0-100 kilometres per hour (km/h) sprint of just 3.3 seconds and top speed reaching 300km/h.
The faster-shifting eight-speed Tiptronic S and the Porsche Traction Management (PTM) system have also been modified with additional water cooling for the transfer case.
With even sportier lines and available as a four-seater Coupé, the Cayenne Turbo GT comes with all available chassis systems fitted as standard and performance tyres developed specially for this model.
The sporty character of the Cayenne Turbo GT is highlighted by the high-quality standard equipment and extended Alcantara features of its interior. They each come GT-specific with perforated seat centre panels in Alcantara, contrast accents in Neodyme or Arctic Grey and ‘turbo GT’ lettering on their headrests.
