New Porsche Cayenne GTS: the tracksuit suits it so well

Comment
Porsche Cayenne GTS

The very large Porsche SUV, the Cayenne, is now available in a sporty GTS version with very specific attributes.

Porsche has not yet fully committed to electric vehicles and remains convinced that it takes all kinds to make a world. Therefore, alongside its Taycan and Macan ranges, the German manufacturer continues to prioritize its best-selling model, the Cayenne.

Always more sophisticated and high-performing, it revives the GTS tradition, which was so popular in the past for its “wild” look. To put it simply, this is the S version but with an additional 26 horsepower, firmer chassis settings, and a more assertive design.

500 smooth horsepower!

Immediately available in two body styles Coupe or SUV, the Cayenne GTS features a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 delivering 500 horsepower and 660 Nm of torque. The chassis is lowered by 10 millimeters and features standard air suspension. Depending on the settings, it adjusts the camber of the front axle to improve tire grip during dynamic driving turns.

The 8-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission and large 21-inch wheels ensure good traction for the whole, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration in just 4.4 seconds. The top speed (not in France…) is limited to 275 km/h.

A Reversed Leather Interior

The interior and exterior design are refined. Outside, many elements adopt a black hue. Inside, the seats and steering wheel are covered in a material — Race-Tex — similar to reversed leather, which is specifically reserved for GTS models in the Porsche catalog.

Order books are already open in France, with prices starting at €141,400 for the SUV and €144,428 for the Coupe. Of course, an additional €60,000 in 2024 ecological tax will need to be added. With such a tax, you’ve already reached the ceiling that exempts you from weight tax. With a weight of 2,295 kg, the penalty would also be significant.

Ultimately, the new Porsche Cayenne GTS costs at least €201,400 in France. You will see few on the roads.
