The Cayenne S and Cayenne Turbo -- the third model series from Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG -- will be presented to the public for the first time at the Paris Motor Show, which will open on Sept. 28, 2002. In preparation for the unveiling, Porsche has announced pricing for both models. The Cayenne S base price in the United States is $55,900 ($78,250 Canadian), while the base U.S. price for the Cayenne Turbo is $88,900 ($125,100 Canadian).
Outstanding Interior Concept
Porsche has gone to great lengths to ensure the Cayenne interior reflects the unmistakable quality of Porsche design. The ignition lock is, as always, positioned to the left of the three-spoke steering wheel, and two large round instrument dials with a central multi-functional display dominate the instrument panel. Standard equipment includes an alarm system, on-board computer, electric windows, electrically adjustable front seats and an expansive leather interior. Automatic air-conditioning and a CD radio with twin tuner and 10 speakers are also standard.
The luggage space -- fitted with a luggage net and boot cover -- has a capacity of 540 liters. The rear seat backrests can fold down with a 40/60 split, which increases the load capacity to a maximum of 1,770 liters. Also, it is not necessary to fully open to rear hatch when loading smaller objects. The Cayenne's rear window opens upwards, which provides a second option for accessing the luggage compartment.
