Launched as part of the extensive 2023 overhaul of the Cayenne lineup, these exciting new entries are driven by a powerful 368 kW (500 PS) twin-turbo V8 engine. Integrated with an advanced chassis derived from the celebrated Turbo GT, the GTS models deliver an invigorating combination of sheer power and precise engineering, aimed to thrill both avid drivers and luxury addicts.
Dynamic Performance Meets Practical Design
The new Porsche Cayenne GTS models, crafted in Stuttgart, represent the Gran Turismo Sport spirit, boasting a perfect blend of dynamic performance and long-distance capability. These vehicles redefine the high-performance sports car paradigm, shifting towards an enhanced on-road focus while maintaining robust all-terrain capabilities.
The core of the Cayenne GTS lies in its four-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, which has been meticulously enhanced to produce 30 kW (40 PS) more than its predecessor, achieving a significant performance leap to 368 kW (500 PS) and 660 Nm of torque. This is complemented by a refined eight-speed Tiptronic S transmission, ensuring quicker response and shift times, especially in Sport and Sport Plus modes.
Chassis innovations are pivotal in the GTS models, with technology borrowed from the esteemed Cayenne Turbo GT. This includes a 10-millimeter-lower ride height, adaptive air suspension, Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), and Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus), all fine-tuned to deliver exceptional handling and agility.
Enhanced Features and Sophisticated Technology for the Modern Driver
Visually, the Cayenne GTS models stand out with distinctive GTS styling, which includes black ‘GTS’ lettering, dark-tinted headlights and taillights, red brake calipers, and High-Gloss Black body attachments. This iconic design is now enriched with dark bronze-toned sports exhaust system tailpipes and 21-inch RS Spyder-design wheels in anthracite grey.
Interior enhancements match the exterior’s flair, featuring a heated GT sports steering wheel and extensive use of the high-quality Race-Tex material. This suede-like fabric adorns the roof lining, armrests, door panels, and the center panels of the eight-way adjustable sports seats, providing a luxurious feel and superior comfort. For those seeking a more personalized touch, Porsche offers GTS-specific interior packages in Carmine Red or Slate Grey Neo.
The new models also boast advanced technological features as part of the Porsche Driver Experience, including a curved digital instrument cluster, ambient lighting, and a Bose® surround sound system. The Cayenne GTS Coupé additionally features a fixed panoramic glass roof and an adaptive extending rear spoiler.
