New Porsche Cayenne vrooms in
(Times of Oman Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) MUSCAT â€" Car lovers just got 1,000 reasons to celebrate!
Porsche Centre Oman showroom has just welcomed the new exclusive series of limited edition models crowning the Porsche range of SUVs â€" the Cayenne GTS Porsche Design Edition 3. And matching the vehicle’s exclusivity, there will be only 1,000 numbered units of the model worldwide.
Mohammed Abul Rasool Qassim Al Zadjali, brand manager at Porsche Centre Oman, Sata LLC, said: “With this new model, the Cayenne is continuing the innovative design line already initiated successfully with the Cayman S Porsche Design Edition 1 and the Boxster S Porsche Design Edition 2†.
Exclusive touch
The stamp of the Porsche Design Studio based in Zell am See, Austria, a world leader in industrial and product design, is clear from the start â€" be it in the Cayenne’s colour, lava grey metallic, emphasising the sporty and purist look of the car, the design stripes on the side and the engine compartment lid, highlighting the exclusive origin of this special Cayenne, or the 21-inch SportPlus wheels featured as standard, which are also finished in the special exterior colour.
The elegant look of this new model is rounded off by bi-xenon headlights featured as standard, as well as dark privacy glazing to the rear of the B-pillar and the Cayenne GTS model designation in black with a red ‘S’ at the rear. An extended roof spoiler with its double wing profile fixed in position is available at no extra cost.
Get sporty
Exclusive black leather upholstery with red contrasting seams on the instrument panel and doorsills further enhances the appeal of the 405-hp Cayenne GTS Porsche Design Edition 3. The car’s padded three-spoke multifunction steering wheel adds to its unique sporty character. Electrically adjustable sports seats with a comfort memory package and high-rising side supports offer the driver and front passenger optimum seating comfort and support at the sides. The headrests in front proudly bear an embossed Porsche logo and the centre seat sections, front and rear, are finished in slip-proof alcantara. The same material renders parts of the centre console and door linings, as well as the inner sections of the door handles and the complete roof lining, a discreet, sophisticated touch, while carbon trim bars bear clear and convincing reference to motorsport. The ‘Porsche Design Edition 3’ model designation, finally, stands out clearly on the rev counter, the front door entry trim and the placard in the glove compartment with the serial number of the vehicle embossed on the surface.
The unique experience in sound, so typical of a Porsche comes, first, at the touch of a button from the sports exhaust system featured as standard and, second, from the Bose 5.1 surround sound system with 14 loudspeakers and an overall output of 410W.
Hit the road
On the road, the car’s 4.8-litre 500 Nm V8 means acceleration from a standstill to 100km per hour with six-speed Tiptronic S featured as standard in just 6.5 seconds, as well as a top speed of 251km per hour.
By tradition, every Porsche Design Edition comes as standard with unique Porsche Design accessories. The Porsche Design Chronograph exclusively matching each model, for example, stands for class and style. In the case of the Porsche Design Edition 3, the Porsche Design Studio has created a Type P’6612 automatic chronograph featuring a light titanium casing, measuring 42 millimetres in diameter, further enhanced by a metal strap with DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating. This special coating carried over from racing engines gives the titanium body of the watch its characteristic colour, while the exclusive face of the chronograph takes up striking design features from the interior of the Cayenne.
Another perfect match is the four-piece luggage set bearing the Porsche Design Edition 3 label and made up of three trolley cases varying in size, as well as a functional briefcase. With the exception of the largest trolley case offering a capacity of 62 litres, all items may be used on aircraft as carry-on travel baggage. Looks like this beauty on wheels is all set to vroom into the automobile style file!
