Cayenne Platinum Edition

Lustrous, silvery, physically alluring and rare – that’s what platinum is, and that’s exactly what Porsche’s new Cayenne Platinum Edition offers

Porsche has launched a new Platinum Edition of selected Cayenne models, characterised by exclusive coordinated design elements in a satin

Platinum paint finish. This distinctive look takes the

Cayenne, Cayenne E-Hybrid, and Cayenne S into an entirely new style realm.

A range of colours are on offer – solid black or white, or Jet Black Metallic, Carrara White Metallic, Mahogany Metallic or Moonlight Blue Metallic, or the Crayon special colour.

Numerous model-specific details are highlighted with satin-finish platinum, such as the inlays in the slats of the front air intakes, the Porsche lettering integrated into the LED rear light, the model designation and standard 21-inch RS Spyder design wheels, sevencolour ambient cabin lighting and distinctive sports tailpipes in Black (high-gloss). Crayon-coloured seatbelts chime beautifully with the brushed aluminium door sills, each emblazoned with the ‘Platinum Edition’ logo.

Extra equipment includes LED headlights with Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS), a panoramic roof (already standard on all Coupé variants), privacy glass, a BOSE surround sound system, ambient lighting, eighteen-way leather sports seats, the Porsche crest on the front and rear headrests and an analogue dashboard clock.

Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur also offers a wide range of refinement options for the interior and exterior, ranging from selective changes to extensive modifications.

Platinum Editions of the Cayenne, Cayenne E-Hybrid, and Cayenne S are available along with the corresponding Coupé variants.

The base Porsche Cayenne comes with a turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 engine producing 250kW of power and 450Nm of torque. Its 0–100km/h time is 6.2 seconds, reduced to 6.0 seconds in the Coupé.

The Cayenne E-Hybrid mates an electric motor and a 17.9kWh lithium-ion battery with the turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 engine with combined outputs of 340kW of power and 700Nm of torque. 0–100km/h is achieved in 5.0 seconds (5.1 in the Coupé).

The Cayenne S uses a twin-turbocharged 2.9-litre V6 engine with 324kW of power and 550Nm of torque to achieve a 0–100km/h time of 5.2 seconds (5.0 seconds in the S Coupé). •
