The new Cayenne will be more economical

No matter how tried in Volkswagen AG to separate in time and place two premieres - Volkswagen Touareg and Porsche Cayenne, divide the two twin brothers did not work. Immediately after the official presentation of the Touareg in Munich, most of the questions about how will the new Cayenne, were removed by themselves.

Indeed, these two models, as previously, differ mostly only superficially. Judge for yourself, in the basic configuration, both models have a 3.6-liter V-shaped "Six". For the Touareg - a capacity of 280 liters. pp. and for the Cayenne - 296. The difference is minimal and explained the subtleties of the engine settings.

Both crossover will be offered in hybrid performance. In both cases, the cars will be installed liter turbocharged V6 petrol engines with capacity 333 liters. with. and electric motors in the 47 "horses". Naturally, no cost and without a diesel engine, one for both.

However, this choice of power units for VW ends, and for the Porsche is just beginning. However, most current owners Cayenne think the biggest engines 4.8 liter only possible for such a car.

Cayenne S is armed with just such a - 4.8-liter V-shaped "figure eight". Modified it slightly, and now she gives 395 liters. with. against the old 385. 4.8 liter turbocharged engine for the Cayenne Turbo, by contrast, has lost about a dozen "horses". However, it is unlikely to affect the dynamics.

For both new items lost nearly two quintal of weight, and with them, and seriously reduced fuel consumption. According to the characteristics provided by the manufacturer, the fuel consumption of the new Porsche Cayenne, on average declined by 23%. A couple of hundred kilograms managed to eliminate the expense of the upgraded technology of doors, use of new wiring and replacement of some steel elements of the chassis and aluminum body.

However, the struggle with being overweight did not affect the size premium SUV. Instead, wheelbase new items increased by 40 mm - up to 2895 mm. Appeared unnecessary place in the trunk: its useful volume increased from 550 to 670 liters, while the rear seats folded and completely up to 1780 liters.

Can the new Cayenne SUV, called? Reduction gearing in the new transmission is not provided. However, the German engineers assure us that its absence would not affect off-road abilities of the car. Most likely, the new Cayenne will kindred, perhaps slightly improved Touareg transmission with control electronics and Torsen differential aid system during the descent.

Produce and Cayenne, the Touareg will be at the VW factory in Bratislava - in what is now produced three full-size SUV VW AG. However, unlike the Audi Q7 and Volkswagen Touareg Porsche Caeynne still waiting for the final refinement in Leipzig.
