What's the story

Porsche has launched the Turbo GT version of its Cayenne SUV in India with a price tag of Rs. 2.57 crore (ex-showroom). The coupe-styled four-wheeler is one of the most powerful Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) only vehicles in the German supercar maker's line-up. It draws 640hp of power from a 4.0-liter V8 petrol engine. It rolls on Pirelli P Zero Corsa performance tires.

Context

Why does this story matter?

Porsche was one of the first carmakers to enter the uber-premium performance SUV segment across the globe in 2002. The Cayenne S Diesel model was one of the popular models by the German automaker, doing good sales in the Indian market as well. The Cayenne Turbo GT is an SUV with a lap record at the Nurburgring racetrack and should attract many buyers here.
