| 2013 Porsche Cayenne GTS |
Beijing International Automotive Exhibition was the forum
chosen by Porsche to unveil their second-generation Cayenne GTS. Based on the
Cayenne S, this new model is equipped with 20 additional horsepower, a 20 mm
lower ride height and a lower final drive ratio for improved driving dynamics.
The latest Cayenne transmits power from its 420 hp V8 to
an active All-Wheel-Drive system coupled to an eight-speed Tiptronic S
transmission with integrated Auto Start Stop function. The specially tuned
engine and transmission combination enable the Cayenne GTS to sprint from a
standing start to 60 mph in 5.4 seconds and to achieve a top-track-speed of 162
mph.
The Cayenne GTS is recognizable from the outside by its
high-gloss black trim, prominent side skirts and wider wheel arches as well as
the hood and front fascia from the Cayenne Turbo. 20-inch RS Spyder wheels with a unique offset
for the GTS are standard as are upgraded brakes from the Cayenne Turbo. Two new colors are available for the Cayenne
GTS; Peridot Metallic and Carmine Red. A sport exhaust system with matte black
twin tailpipes is standard.
Inside, the Cayenne GTS features exclusive GTS eight-way
adjustable front sports seats with Alcantara accents. For the first time in the Cayenne, a new
Sport Chrono package is now available to monitor the improved performance
offered by the GTS model. Additionally,
a Sound Symposer channels authentic engine intake sounds into the cabin.
The 2013 Cayenne GTS will go on sale in the U.S. in
August 2012, with a base MSRP of $82,050, not including a $975 delivery charge.
