Last month, Porsche Malaysia announced that the new Porsche Cayenne, designed exclusively for the Malaysian market, was available for online ordering through a streamlined digital platform.
Now, the new Cayenne is officially launched. It has emerged with a striking blend of design enhancements and advanced technologies, elevating its presence and performance. Let’s delve into the key features that make this luxury SUV an exciting prospect for automotive enthusiasts.
Exterior Design
The Cayenne’s front end undergoes a significant redesign, showcasing more pronounced wings, refreshed hood, and technically appealing headlights that add to the SUV’s commanding presence. The rear design is marked by three-dimensionally designed taillights, clean surfaces, and an integrated number plate holder. The standard inclusion of 20-inch Cayenne Design wheels adds to the sporty appeal.
Lighting Advancements
Matrix LED headlights, now a standard feature, bring a notable lighting upgrade. These adaptive headlights use data from the SUV’s speed, camera, and navigation systems to optimize illumination. The high beam area is divided into segments, enabling precise lighting control to prevent dazzling other vehicles, a technology known as matrix beam.
Power and Performance
Under the hood, the Cayenne houses a potent V6 turbo engine, producing 353PS and 500Nm of torque. The power is seamlessly channeled through an 8-speed Tiptronic S transmission, propelling the SUV from 0-100km/h in just 5.7 seconds, with a top speed of 248km/h.
Enhanced Driving Experience
The Cayenne promises an improved driving experience with its adaptive air suspension, ensuring a smoother ride, stability on diverse terrains, and better handling. The suspension system offers distinct driving modes for a customized experience, catering to varied driving preferences.
Interior Comfort and Convenience
Inside the cabin, Porsche focuses on enhancing comfort and air quality. The air quality system employs predictive navigation data to activate air recirculation when approaching tunnel entrances. An optional sensor efficiently filters fine dust particles, and an ionizer helps maintain a cleaner cabin environment.
Porsche Driver Experience
Introducing the Porsche Driver Experience, inspired by the Porsche Taycan, the redesigned cockpit features a fully digital 12.6-inch instrument cluster and a standard 12.3-inch central Porsche Communication Management display. The interface balances modern technology with tactile interfaces for optimal usability and aesthetics.
Personalisation and Pricing
Customers can personalise their Cayenne with various customisation options, including a choice of wheels and rear-seat entertainment systems. The Cayenne’s pricing starts from RM599,999, offering exceptional value for the range of features and advancements it brings.
