Porsche claims a 0 to 100 kph time of 4.1 seconds (3.9 seconds with the optional Sport Chrono Package) and a top speed of 286 kph. The engine is mated to a new eight-speed Tiptronic S automatic gearbox. and features active all-wheel drive Porsche Traction Management .

2018 Porsche Cayenne Turbo exterior

On the exterior, the new Cayenne Turbo features a re worked front end with LED headlights from the Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS). There are 21 inch alloy wheels with a staggered tyre set up, with 85/40 at the front and 315/35 at the rear. It is the first SUV to have an adaptive roof spoiler as a component of its active aerodynamics. Depending on the position of the spoiler, this optimises efficiency, increases downforce on the rear axle and, in the airbrake position, shortens the braking distance needed from higher speeds. As a result, at full braking from 250 km/h, the Turbo comes to a stop up to two metres earlier. Twin exhaust complete the rear end.
