Porsche unveiled at the Beijing Auto Show the 2009 Cayenne Turbo S, the most powerful Cayenne of them all. Sales will begin in August 2008 at a price of EUR 111,400.
The Cayenne Turbo S is powered by a 4.8 liter V8 engine with twin turbo forced induction that delivers 550 hp at 6,000 rpm and a peak torque of 750 Nm from 2,250 rpm to 4,500 rpm. The engine is mated to a Six-speed Tiptronic S converter automatic gearbox. It makes the 0 to 60 mph sprint in just 4.7 seconds and can hit a top speed of 174.0 mph.
All models of the Turbo S have a chassis which benefits from air suspension, not to mention suspension leveling and ride-height control, along with Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), which – once again as standard – is combined with Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC) and Servotronic speed-sensitive variable power steering.

Porche unveiled today the 2008 Cayenne S Transsyberia, an improved model that will be offered to customer teams around the world as a conversion kit.
In the modifications to the Cayenne S Transsyberia, primary importance was given to further improving the offroad capabilities and optimising the suspension set-up. The 2008-spec of the successful long distance racer features a stronger and newly-formed sump-guard. The front and rear panels were modified to allow a larger angle of driving slope. An all-terrain offroad tyre from BFGoodrich in the 265/65 R18 R dimension increases the ground clearance by 30 millimetres. Compared to last year, the higher and stronger side walls offer better protection against tyre damage. 
The air suspension was retuned based on the experiences of the 2007 Transsyberia Rally. The standard shock absorbers were replaced with special rally shocks. Particularly on the fast, bumpy sections, the vehicle’s handling is substantially smoother than the 2007 version. Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC), which features two active anti-roll bars to almost completely eliminate body sway in bends, was adapted to withstand the special demands of a marathon rally. The Cayenne S Transsyberia is powered by a 4.8-litre normally-aspirated engine with direct fuel injection that delivers 385 hp. It makes the 0-60 mph sprint in 6.8 seconds and can hit a top speed of 105 mph. Press release after the jump. >> read 2008 Porsche Cayenne S Transsyberia Picture Gallery .

Spies at Auto Express have caught the Porsche Cayenne Diesel filling up at a fuel station in Sweden. The black car was undergoing cold weather testing and caught the spies attention when the testers parked to fill up diesel. The diesel clatter later cleared their doubts and disbeliefs. The Oil-burning version of the popular SUV has been in the company’s pipeline for sometime now. Sweden is a preferred place for cold weather testing. A host of cars like the Mercedes B-Class, Chevrolet Camaro, Aston Martin Rapide and Porsche’s own Cayman have been spotted testing in Sweden in the past two months alone. Engines for this SUV will be borrowed from its cousin Touareg’s 3.0-litre V6 TDI and the V12 diesel engine, which will also find its place on the Q7 later this year.
Automotive politics in full swing. As Porsche increases its stake in VW from 31 percent to more than 50 percent, its earlier plans of making a smaller SUV based on the Audi Q5 has aroused. And news is out from Ingolstadt that Audi’s board members are against this proposition as they fear it might impact Q5’s sales. Porsche’s Chairman Wendelin Wiedeking, for many years, has been trying to strike a deal with Audi to bring out a five-seater SUV. The Q5 was what he exactly had in mind. The Porsche Cayenne and the Audi Q7 were developed and are built on a common platform. Wiedeking’s idea of making it happen again with the Q5 has apparently not pleased the board members at Audi. The Porsche Cayenne and Audi Q7 are in their own leagues even though they share the same platform. Porsche should stop buying such lame stories and go ahead with developing their own stuff and now with the increase in their stake, it is bound to happen anytime soon. I mean, who wouldn’t want to buy a mini-Cayenne? And once they bring out one, it would definitely destroy the BMW X3.
The diesel Cayenne has got all our attention. Mid-2009 was the launch date and the hype multiplied when rumors floated of a version with the V12 TDI found in the new Q7, was going to be offered. But No! Dreams will remain dreams. The diesel avatar of the Cayenne SUV will be launched with the lighter 3.2 liter V6. There are a host of reasons like fuel economy, emissions, suitability and so on, which have prompted Porsche to make this move. But no worries. The V6 is said to produce around 300 hp with loads of torque which will make up for some of the disappointment. And lets agree on the fact that Porsche know more than you and me and we (majority of us) have always been fascinated and accept their products for what they are. There is no point in making a car which houses an engine that measures to a size of an office cubicle but fails to get the all power it produces down on to the road. The engine is just one part of the whole equation and lets leave it Porsche to do what they want. All we need is the Porsche magic in it and nothing more. Regardless of all that, there will be a few unsatisfied people, the-more-power-madness-I-want category of customers whom I bet will be taken care by Gemballa or RENNtech immediately after the launch.

Porsche decided diesel is the future, thereby the company will introduce a diesel-powered car by the middle of 2009, and probably this first car will be the Cayenne SUV. Decision came to save substantial development costs. Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking has said repeatedly that the company constantly evaluates the commercial feasibility of putting a diesel engine in one or more of its models. A Porsche spokesman said Friday that the issue remains under discussion internally. Porsche sources said no decision has been made. Porsche, which currently uses only gasoline engines, has decided to introduce a hybrid version of the Cayenne in 2010, AID said. Whether hybrids will power other Porsche models depends on whether new technology will make it possible to substantially reduce battery size.
