Porsche Cayenne with DIESEL ENGINE

Is it finally happened! The long-awaited diesel engine in the Porsche Cayenne is a fact. From next year, in a tough three-liter four-actuator itself detonator can be delivered. Power: 240 horsepower, torque: 550 Nm, supplier: Audi, price € 83,900. If there ever been an open secret, then it was the fact that the Cayenne with Audi diesel would be delivered. For a long time ago was gripped by stories by the market, but Porsche did it officially remains silent. Even when Audi boss Rupert Stadler two weeks ago publicly announced that negotiations with Porsche on delivery of a 3-0-V6 TDI were completed and that a 'good business''agreement was concluded. The Cayenne V6 TDI, which is a standard-zestraps Tiptronic automatic transmission has, therefore, is the first ever Porsche diesel. In the first presentation of the new Panamera (more on this Monday morning!) Wanted to Porsche's R & D-opposite chef Wolfgang Dürheimer Auto Telegraaf already lost his mark not opt for a diesel engine because some more torque (550 Nm here, something more than Audi region). ,, Porsche opted for a diesel engine because we Cayenne thus reduced consumption basis. Power and good traction can we get from gasoline, which are lighter, one for us non-negligible advantage.''Dürheimer ditch indeed a priori that the Panamera ever also equipped with diesel engines would be. The 3.0 V6 TDI Audi Porsche will there still a little adjusted (see the increased torque), but what that is or is not reported. Porsche also does not have absolute performance for the diesel model. There is next to the name of power and torque enough to give up in consumption. That is, as the Cayenne 9.3 l/100 km, or 1 in 10.8. It comes in line with a CO2 emissions from 244 g / km. By comparison, the "weakest" Cayenne-petrol (290 hp) has 310 g / km and consumes an average of 1 in 7.8. The Cayenne Diesel will initially be delivered only in Europe, preparations for launch in other markets are already done. Besides the diesel effect is also a Porsche Cayenne Hybrid in development, reports the brand itself. That will be less than 9 liters per 100 km in 2010 and will consume on the market.
