Test drive Porsche Cayenne GTS: Spicy and delicious in the curve

What is pleasing to the car enthusiast more than the whopping sound of a V8 engine? Perhaps the return of such in his favorite car. At Porsche, he is now in the more powerful class of the SUV to find it. The Cayenne GTS, he is in the nomenclature of the Zuffenhausen-based company is on the second HP-rank behind the Turbo, now gets two more cylinders, and draws from a four-Liter engine capacity of 460 HP. He finished the Phase of the Downsizing with turbocharged and 3.6-litre volume. 114.087 Euro with the dedication-equipped vehicle costs. Many of the otherwise available for an extra charge Extras gets this Cayenne for a better delineation of the tamer brethren from the factory on the way.

Clear, the GTS on the inside and generously distributed badges with the model name. Especially the exhaust system with, on request, centrally placed double end pipes, the light-alloy wheels in 21-inch Format and the red-lacquered saddles of the grey cast iron brake system limits it to the S-series models from.

without a turbocharger, the V8 is not, however. The measured charging rules in times of stringent Emission is hardly dispensable, and will be required to increase the quality of Exhaust gas. In terms of power and torque of the new GTS in comparison to its predecessor by 20 points. Its torque peak of 620 Newton-meter is already at 1800 Rpm and remains on until 4500 rpm constant. That's enough for an acceleration in 4.8 seconds from 0 to 100 km/h. Who has the Sport Chrono package on-Board, done this Exercise in 0.3 seconds faster. 270 km/h the speedometer displays at a maximum speed of eight kilometers more than the predecessor managed.

but Above all, the agility wins by two inches deep covered the suspension and the Torque Vectoring, which make the GTS in turns incredibly fast. For this purpose, the vote was designed, as well as the adaptive damper control sporty. The longitudinal acceleration a lasting impression, and the onset of centrifugal forces in the curves even more. The smallest of steering wheel corrections, so you need to be at all circles, the two tonner with the highest precision to the corners. The exhaust tone on the right, meanwhile, the abusive vocals on the German environmental aid. Which will not inspire whether the consumption values of the heavy car, the extensive lightweight construction measures not under the Two tonne mark, press can, already for the GTS. 11.4 liters of the four-wheel drive needs-driven Porsche for 100 kilometers of driving, the are 260 g/km of CO2. An automatic transmission with eight stages is, in principle, to be in the game.
