保时捷近日披露了下一代卡宴最初细节。虽然宾利宣称,即将发布的Bentayga将是速度最快的SUV,但保时捷表示,570马力的卡宴Turbo S最高时速达到286公里,在纽伯格林赛道单圈行驶时间为7分59秒74。保时捷研发主管Wolfgang Hatz在北美车展期间表示,将于2017年发布的下一代卡宴最高时速可达300公里。虽然搭载W12引擎的Bentayga最高时速可能会快那么2-3公里,但在公路上,下一代卡宴仍将更快。他透露,新车重量降幅至少将与新一代奥迪Q7一样,预计将低于2000公斤。同时新款卡宴Turbo / Turbo S将搭载新开发的V8涡轮增压引擎。而保时捷不会再推出更多SUV,而Macan只会搭载六缸引擎。
Porsche says next-gen Cayenne will be much faster and a lot lighter, will do 300 km/h
Porsche has released some preliminary details about the next generation Cayenne.
Bentley announced their upcoming Bentayga will be the fastest SUV ever but Porsche has already replied with their 570 HP Cayenne Turbo S capable of doing 176 mph (286 km/h) and lapping the 'Ring in 7:59.74.
In addition, Porsche R&D chief Wolfgang Hatz told journalists at NAIAS in Detroit the next generation Cayenne scheduled to come out sometime in 2017 is going to be considerably quicker and will hit a top speed of 186 mph (300 km/h).
Hatz said that even though Bentley's W12-powered Bentayga might have a 2-3 km/h higher top speed, the next-gen Cayenne will be "much quicker on the road." He added the new model will drop "at least" the same percentage of weight as the second-gen Audi Q7 has lost compared to its predecessor. Expected to drop below the 2,000 kg (4,409 lbs) mark, the new Cayenne Turbo / Turbo S is going to be powered by a newly developed V8 turbo set to be assembled at a dedicated factory in Stuttgart.
Hatz also mentioned Porsche doesn't plan on adding any other SUVs to its lineup while a Macan with more than six cylinders is not being considered.
