Hybrid Porsche Cayenne S

A 193 g / km, Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid is not only the clean version of the Cayenne with the lowest level of emissions, but also the cleanest Porsche through the company's total portfolio. Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid is equipped with a 333 hp drive-train, which returns 34.4mpg combined consumption (8.2 litres/100km) and CO2 emissions of 193 g / km.

In the intelligent interaction between the compressor 3.0-liter V6 and electric motor, focusing Hybrid Porsche Cayenne S at maximum efficiency of the overall powertrain system. Depending on driving conditions, the vehicle reaches the target is a single drive unit to operate independently or in conjunction with training units both to work together. In this context, the 34 kW (47 hp) electric motor is of course the ideal partner for the engine of 333 hp compressor with its high torque at low revs. Together, the two drive units provide a maximum output of 380 hp and maximum torque of 580 Nm at just 1000 rpm, with the same kind of performance that the Porsche Cayenne S with its conventional gasoline engine V8.

The two drive units are connected together by a clutch separator orchestrated by the director computer hybrid. This coupling is essential to drive the separator S Porsche Cayenne Hybrid or electric motor or combustion engine alone, or with both drives to work together. Under relaxed operating conditions, for example in a residential area, this driver to cover short distances to electric power alone, and therefore entirely free of emissions (and with almost no noise). It is also possible to operate in this mode at speeds approaching 40 mph (60 km / h).

However, to ensure the acceleration when you go faster, the electric motor can operate to provide additional information to be pierced "greenhouse". Intelligent management of the separator clutch makes a transition between the discrete-specific hybrid driving mode, and that is comfortable and easy for the driver. At the same time, the internal combustion engine can be completely powered up to 97 mph (156 km / h), is completely removed from the transmission when the power is no longer necessary. In this mode, the so-called sailing ", cruising along without power, the drag forces exerted by the internal combustion engine and the braking effect is eliminated by lowering the interest of the immune system and thus continue to benefit from the consumption of fuel.

Porsche Cayenne Diesel

Porsche Cayenne Diesel 240 hp (176 kW), three-liter V6 with 550 Nm of pulling power. The new car, the power line is now offering lower fuel consumption by 20 percent, with a combined 38.2 mpg (7.4 ltr/100 km) grew by 30.4 mpg (9.3 ltr/100km ). Therefore, CO2 emissions are 195 g / km.

Porsche Cayenne S

The maximum of more power with less fuel is demonstrated by the Porsche Cayenne S, now has a 400 hp high-torque 4.8-liter gasoline V8. With 15 hp more than its predecessor, along with greater economy, this new engine offers much better performance in general, all models of the new generation Porsche Cayenne.
