Powering the entry-level Cayenne and Cayenne Coupe is a tweaked 3.0-litre V6 turbo-petrol engine producing 353PS and 500Nm of torque - an increase of 13PS and 50Nm than its predecessor. It comes mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. With this, it can achieve zero to 100kmph in 5.4 seconds and provides a top speed of 248kmph.
