Porsche will introduce the next-generation Cayenne sport utility vehicle, including a hybrid gas-electric version, to the North American market on March 31 during a press conference at the New York International Automobile Show.

Led by a highly advanced hybrid model, the new Porsche Cayenne sport-utility vehicle delivers improved performance while using less fuel and producing fewer emissions throughout the entire model lineup.

The North American Cayenne model range will include four models: the 2011 Cayenne, Cayenne S, Cayenne Turbo and the Cayenne S Hybrid. The S and Turbo models go on sale in July, with the Cayenne and Cayenne S Hybrid in dealer showrooms this fall.

All the new Cayenne models embody the Porsche Intelligent Performance philosophy, the evolution of vehicles sportier than their predecessors, yet more fuel and emissions efficient.

“Porsche Intelligent Performance philosophy is more than a slogan. It is nothing less than Porsche keeping pace with the modern automotive landscape by dramatically lowering emissions, becoming greener and saving fuel,” explained Detlev von Platen, Porsche Cars North America President and CEO. “We will we accomplish this through technology and innovative ideas, just as we have throughout our history, and show that Porsche’s high performance and efficiency are not contradictory terms.”

Cayenne’s dynamic new design offers less weight and more room

The Cayenne’s new exterior leaves no doubt it is part of the Porsche family. Its sporting character is evident from all angles, and its Porsche shape and highlights are more distinct than before. From a dimensions standpoint, it is 1.9 inches longer than its predecessor, and its wheelbase adds 1.6 inches, ensuring extra interior space and greater versatility. Still, despite its larger exterior, this next-generation Cayenne looks even more compact and dynamic.

Thanks to a special combination of materials as well as changes in the overall vehicle concept, such as a new all-wheel drive system, weight has been reduced on all models. Despite a higher standard of safety features, the Cayenne S, for example, is almost 400 lbs lighter, which not only improves fuel consumption and lowers emissions, but also boosts performance, agility, and handling.

Inside, the luxurious interior features a high center console that, like the Panamera, rises up at an incline to meet the dashboard center stack and a touch-screen infotainment interface. Porsche’s traditional set of five round instruments in the driver’s gauge cluster includes a high-resolution circular TFT screen to the right of the tachometer. It can be used to change radio stations, vehicle settings, access the navigation system or view the map. Rear-seat comfort is improved, as well. The bench slides fore-and-aft by 6.3 inches, while the backrest can be adjusted.

2011 Merdad Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid Inside view

The high-tech Cayenne S Hybrid that is debuting at the New York show next week features a highly sophisticated parallel full hybrid system. With a combined power output of 380 horsepower from the supercharged V6 combustion engine and an electric motor, the Cayenne S Hybrid combines the performance of a V8 with the economy of a V6.

Through continuous interaction between the 3.0-liter supercharged V6 and electric motor, the Cayenne S Hybrid focuses on maximum efficiency. Depending on driving conditions, either drive unit can operate independently or together. The 47-horsepower (34 kW) electric motor is the ideal partner for the 333-horsepower engine, which produces high torque at low engine speeds. With peak torque at 428 lb-ft at just 1,000 rpm, the Cayenne S Hybrid’s performance is on par with a V8-powered Cayenne S.

The Cayenne S Hybrid’s two drive units are connected by a decoupling clutch. A hybrid controller constantly coordinates their complex interaction, and intelligent management of the clutch makes the transition among various driving modes seamless. Like many hybrids, the Cayenne S Hybrid can cover short distances on electric power alone, free of emissions and noise up to 60 km/h or almost 40 mph. For aggressive acceleration, the motor provides an extra ‘boost’ to the gasoline engine.

All new-generation Cayenne SUVs set high standards for efficiency and performance. Compared with the former models, fuel consumption is down by up to 23 percent in the New European Driving Cycle and CO2 emissions are reduced. Actual EPA-certified fuel economy figures will be available when the cars go on sale in North America in July.

A new eight-speed Tiptronic S automatic transmission with a wide range of gear ratios and the Automatic Start Stop function (first introduced on the Panamera) contribute to these improvements. So does efficient thermal management of the engine and transmission cooling circuits, on-board electrical network recuperation, variable deceleration fuel cut-off and the Cayenne’s intelligent lightweight construction.

The entry-level Cayenne with its 300-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 engine and mated to the new eight-speed Tiptronic S automatic transmission consumes 20 percent less fuel than its predecessor.

Fuel consumption is also down significantly on the high-torque Cayenne S. Its 4.8-liter V8 produces 400 horsepower, 15 more than the previous model.

The Cayenne Turbo, with its 500-horsepower, 4.8-liter twin-turbocharged V8 also consumes less fuel than its predecessor despite its improved performance and acceleration.

Three other new Porsche models are making their New York debuts next week. Most prominent is the agile, light and dynamic 2011 Boxster Spyder roadster, a purer Porsche roadster weighing in at just 2,811 lbs. This sleek version of Porsche’s popular mid-engine sports car is the lightest Porsche available is on sale now with an MSRP of $61,200. Also on display will be the 2011 911 Turbo Cabriolet featuring a 500-horsepower 3.8-liter engine, the first entirely new engine in 911 Turbo’s storied 35-year- history. Finally, the new Porsche Panamera, the company’s first four-door Gran Turismo, will grace the Porsche display in New York.

looks like Porsche are out testing next years Cayenne. These two mules were spotted out in Georgia, USA and were wearing very little camouflage perhaps indicating that it is nearing the end of its development period. From the pictures we would guess that Porsche are testing the standard Cayenne alongside the lower, more aggressive Cayenne Turbo.

Since its introduction in 2003, Porsche’s 4?4 has suffered from the same ‘marmite’ styling issues as blights the majority of Stuttgart cars. It seems that this time around, Porsche have gone for a sleeker, more rounded look, keeping weight down perhaps even at the expensive of off-road capabilities.

The basis of the car will be the 2011 Volkswagen Toureg due to be released at next weeks Detroit Motor Show. 40mm will be cut from the wheel base with 20mm being shaved from the roof line, estimates also suggest that it could be around 200kg lighter than the previous generation.

Both Cayenne and Toureg will be built together at VW’s Bratislava plant in Slovakia once again. We are expecting V6 and V8 options to be made available from launch together with hybrid and turbo diesel options.

To see the finished product you will have to wait until the 2010 Geneva Auto Salon.

For aggressive acceleration, the motor provides an extra ‘boost’ to the gasoline engine.

What makes the Cayenne S Hybrid unique is its ability to cruise at high speeds on electric power alone. The gasoline engine can be completely switched off and disengaged from the drivetrain at speeds of up to 97 mph. Christened by the Weissach engineers as ‘sailing’ – or cruising — mode, the drag forces exerted by the combustion engine and their braking effect are eliminated in the interest of lower resistance and fuel consumption.

All new-generation Cayenne SUVs set high standards for efficiency and performance.

Porsche’s traditional set of five round instruments in the drivers gauge cluster includes a high-resolution circular TFT screen to the right of the tachometer. It can be used to change radio stations, vehicle settings, or access the navigation system or view the map. Rear-seat comfort is much improved, as well. The bench slides fore-and-aft by 6.3 inches, while the backrest can be adjusted to three different angles.

The entry-level Cayenne with its 300-horsepwer 3.6-liter V6 engine and mated to the new eight-speed Tiptronic S automatic transmission consumes 20 percent less fuel in the New European Driving Cycle than its predecessor.

Fuel consumption is also down significantly on the high-torque Cayenne S. Its 4.8-liter V8 produces 400 horsepower, 15 more than the previous model. When combined with the overall weight savings, performance is markedly increased, yet fuel consumption is down by 23 percent in the New European Driving Cycle.

Eight years ago, when the first Cayenne was introduced, the concern among the sports car community was whether an SUV should wear the prestigious Porsche badge, whereas Porsche’s main concerns seemed to be making sure the Cayenne had Porsche-like performance and real off-road capability. Today, we’ve either accepted or become inured to the idea of a Porsche SUV, and Porsche’s focus for the Cayenne also has changed. Its buyers don’t care about off-roading, so for the second-generation Cayenne, Porsche’s aim was to improve efficiency while enhancing performance.Thus, the two recently added powertrain offerings are a diesel (unfortunately not coming to the U.S. market) and a hybrid. The latter combines Audi’s supercharged 333-hp V-6 with a 46-hp electric motor. The base six is, once again, the Volkswagen Group’s 3.6-liter narrow-angle V-6, which now produces 300 hp with a claimed twenty percent improvement in fuel efficiency. That would put the Cayenne’s combined economy rating at 19 mpg, although no EPA figures are available yet. The V-8s, both normally aspirated and turbocharged, provide a 23 percent increase in fuel economy thanks to a new eight-speed automatic transmission and substantial weight savings. The Cayenne S now delivers 400 hp (up from 385 hp) and 369 lb-ft of torque – enough, Porsche says, to beam itself from 0 to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds and on to a maximum speed of 160 mph.

We drove the top-of-the-line Cayenne Turbo. Its 4.8-liter V-8 is rated at 500 hp and 516 lb-ft, and according to Porsche, it can propel the Cayenne to 60 mph in 4.4 seconds and on to a top speed of 173 mph. In theory, the Turbo will average 17 mpg, but in reality, our hard-driven test car barely achieved 10 mpg.

Compared with the old Cayenne Turbo, which felt like a fast castle on wheels, the new model is more lithe at speed and less ponderous through corners. The front end of the Cayenne is still as big as a small country mansion, but the vehicle has lost 408 pounds. It now weighs in at 4784 pounds, which about matches a Buick Enclave. Redline for the 500-hp twin-turbo engine comes at 6700 rpm with peak torque on tap from 2250 to 4500 rpm, so you have 516 lb-ft of punch where and when you need it most. The new eight-speed automatic transmission is supplied by Aisin and offers a slightly wider ratio spread (7.1:1) than the ZF box being used by BMW and Audi. Seventh and eighth are long-legged overdrive ratios that drop the revs dramatically at interstate speeds. Also new is the start/stop system, which automatically cuts the engine when the vehicle is stationary and your foot is on the brake. Other green items are a more efficient engine and transmission cooling circuit and a brake-energy regeneration system.

The suspension is now largely made of aluminum, not steel, which alone reduces weight by 73 pounds. The Turbo model is fitted with air springs, adjustable dampers (PASM), and bigger vented disc brakes. If you think that’s plenty of high tech, check out the options list. There you will find additional sparks of genius such as the dynamic antiroll system (PDCC), carbon-ceramic brakes (PCCB), torque vectoring (PTV Plus), and radar-based cruise control.

Is it really worth spending the equivalent of a base Volkswagen Golf on these goodies? Well, the dynamic chassis control device does keep unwanted body motions to a minimum, but by doing so it narrows the demarcation zone between grip and slip, thereby virtually eliminating an important warning signal. Torque vectoring is also a good thing. It improves turn-in by decelerating the inside rear wheel while at the same time feeding more torque to the outer rear wheel, triggering a yaw moment that helps to keep the car on course. The expensive carbon-ceramic brakes are, however, difficult to justify for anyone but the most aggressive drivers.

A couple of inches longer than its predecessor, the new Cayenne offers more rear legroom. The split bench slides fore and aft a generous 6.3 inches and the seatbacks adjust within a six-degree range, allowing you to choose between passenger comfort or cargo room.

But the most significant improvement concerns the classier and more user-friendly interior, which mixes design elements from the Panamera with higher-quality materials and a bunch of new options. The dashboard, which used to be an overstyled yet underwhelming slab of plastic with an extremely busy center stack, has been completely revised. Gone are the hard-to-use navigation system, the difficult-to-reach climate controls, and the not exactly self-explanatory buttons and levers for ride height and damper calibration. The Tiptronic S gearbox can now be operated by paddles rather than thumb switches (albeit at extra cost), the larger color monitor is a touch screen, and dialing in your preferred dynamic vehicle setting is no longer just a fiddly exercise.

The four round instruments have moved a little closer together and include a new multifunction display. There are two high-end sound systems to choose from, one tuned by Bose and the other by Burmester.

2011 porsche cayenne cabin 2011 Porsche Cayenne turbo

2011 Porsche Cayenne turbo Cabin View

Full praise is due the thick-rimmed, smaller-diameter steering wheel; the much-improved ergonomics; and the more flexible packaging. I also love the supportive power-operated seats – with one exception – the fixed headrest that sports a bulge exactly where my neck wants to rest.

Time to hit the road and burn some rubber, which isn’t easy with the congestion around Stuttgart. After about an hour, the autobahn is finally clear enough to let the turbos swirl. Zero to 100 mph is a swift exercise, 125 mph comes and goes in a flash, and even at 150 mph the Cayenne still feels like it’s attached to the horizon by a tightly strung rubber band. Top speed is 173 mph, but we briefly see an indicated 185 mph on a long, downhill slope. Try that in a Chevy Tahoe.

Thankfully, high-speed roadholding combines strong cornering grip with impeccable stability. The meaty steering never feels vague or rubbery, and the performance of the composite brakes is quite simply sensational. Their strong initial bite and communicative pedal feel are second to none. The energy-squashing deceleration goes from reassuring to riveting with only a modest increase of pedal pressure.

Among the very few complaints we have after the fast bit of a half-day journey are a fair amount of tire and chassis noise and the air suspension’s tendency to respond to transverse irritations with a low-frequency drumming motion. It’s nothing serious, only an idiosyncrasy that may well be absent in the steel-sprung Cayenne.

On traffic-free back roads, the 500-hp crossover feels a full size smaller and about two weight classes more agile than its predecessor. This vehicle seemingly neutralizes the laws of physics. It has amazing cornering capability and steers with exceptional precision. It accelerates as if it were launched by a built-in catapult and it is at the same time both incredibly maneuverable and absolutely rock solid.

Of the three suspension-tuning options – sport, normal, and comfort – I prefer the softest calibration in combination with the sharpest engine and transmission setting. This yields all the compliance you need on the rough stuff, all the throttle response a steady right foot can handle, and all the torque you’d ever want.

Having lost weight and gained mechanical efficiency, the Cayenne now handles and rides like a top-notch sport sedan. In some markets, it can even be specified with a couple of green fig leaves – the hybrid and the diesel – to cover up a guilty conscience. Despite these improvements, the tallest Porsche is still stuck with the off-road-compromised architecture originally developed with Volkswagen. We won’t see a thoroughly reworked version until the third-generation Cayenne appears in around 2017. That model will almost certainly boast an aluminum spaceframe that will allow a further weight reduction of at least 500 pounds. That should let the Cayenne continue what’s been started: making an SUV more acceptable to Porsche purists.
