Dealer Description

The Cayenne Diesel features a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 diesel that produces 240 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque. The eight-speed automatic is standard. Porsche says the diesel Cayenne will hit 60 mph in 7.4 seconds, which is quick for a diesel engine. The Cayenne's success for Porsche can't be denied, and with the addition of a new diesel model for the 2013 model year, it looks as though its position will be further solidified. That's a very good thing for SUV lovers, however, as the Cayenne is one of the best in the business. It has a unique look--one that not everyone will love. Wrapping a rough approximation of the 911's curves around the large SUV results in a smooth, curvaceous, swooping form that sits at odds with most of the rest of the large SUV segment, which is largely composed of squared edges and bluff faces. Inside, the Cayenne is even less typical, with a coupe-like cockpit up front, with curved surfaces and upscale materials. All models now come with an analog clock for 2013. Across most of the 2013 Porsche Cayenne model line, and that includes the new Cayenne Diesel, you get strong, satisfying performance. New for 2013 and slotting between the base model and the Cayenne S is the Cayenne Diesel. While the diesel is rated at just 240 horsepower, from its 3.0-liter V-6 turbodiesel engine, it's the substantial 406 pound-feet of torque--37 lb-ft more than the Cayenne S and 111 lb-ft more than the base Cayenne, that really matters. The Diesel can get to 60 mph in just 7.2 seconds, faster than the automatic version of the Cayenne V-6, with a top speed of 135 mph. As Porsche has evolved, it's now as much of a luxury brand as a sports car brand, and the 2013 Cayenne is one of the models that most reflects the luxury side of that mission, without forgetting about the performance side, of course.
