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.
