The new Porsche Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid was made official recently, and now Porsche has released a video of the car setting a new track record at the Swedish Gotland Ring.
The Swedish Gotland Ring is still under construction, and Porsche managed a time of 3:51 around the track. Have a look at the video below; it looks more like a sports car going around the track than an SUV.
As part of a film shoot, the most powerful Cayenne ever clocked a hand-stopped time of 3:51 minutes around the Swedish Gotland Ring, which is still under construction and partly unasphalted. The hybrid SUV ran on used road tyres and was driven by the German racing driver and TV presenter Tim Schrick. While the 3.2-kilometre northern section of the Gotland Ring is already asphalted and in operation, the 4.2-kilometre southern section is still only gravel.
Performance and Specifications
The Porsche Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid is not just any SUV; it is a marvel of modern engineering. This hybrid SUV combines a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with an electric motor, producing a staggering 670 horsepower and 663 lb-ft of torque. This powertrain allows the Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.6 seconds, with a top speed of 183 mph. These performance figures are impressive for any vehicle, let alone an SUV, making it one of the fastest and most powerful in its class.
The hybrid system also offers an all-electric range of up to 19 miles, making it a versatile option for both high-performance driving and more eco-friendly, everyday use. The battery can be charged using a standard household outlet, a dedicated home charging station, or public charging stations, providing flexibility for various charging needs.
Advanced Technology and Features
The Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid is packed with advanced technology and features that enhance both performance and comfort. The Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) system ensures a smooth and controlled ride by adjusting the damping force on each wheel based on current driving conditions. Additionally, the Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC) system minimizes body roll during cornering, further improving handling and stability.
Inside the cabin, the Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid offers a luxurious and tech-savvy environment. The Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system serves as the central control unit for audio, navigation, and communication functions. The system includes a high-resolution touchscreen display, voice control, and smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Safety is also a priority in the Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid. The vehicle comes equipped with a suite of advanced driver assistance systems, including adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and night vision assist. These features work together to provide a safer and more convenient driving experience.
The Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid’s impressive performance at the Gotland Ring is a testament to Porsche’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of what an SUV can achieve. The combination of a powerful hybrid powertrain, advanced technology, and luxurious features makes it a standout in the crowded SUV market.
