All-New Cayenne And 911 GT2 RS Are Porsche's Frankfurt Premieres


Porsche will live stream their press conference at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show, which takes place next Tuesday, September 12, at 11:30am CEST (5:30am EST).

Those looking to find out what execs have to say about the current lineup and the future of the brand, and to see the new Cayenne and 911 GT2 RS resting on German soil, should save this link.

Described as being capable to achieve "the driving dynamics of a sports car", the new Porsche Cayenne features an evolutionary styling, and a completely redesigned cabin, with plenty of premium materials and the latest gadgets, available either as standard or as options.

There's a 3.0-liter V6 engine that powers the company's flagship SUV, rated at 340PS (335hp) and 450Nm (331lb-ft) of torque, which is married to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Buyers can also have the Cayenne in the 'S' specification, with a 440PS (434hp) and 550Nm (405lb-ft) of torque 2.9-liter twin-turbo mill, in addition to other units that will join the family.

The most powerful road-legal Porsche 911 ever, the GT2 RS, will also debut at the German event, next week. It was presented this summer, and uses the a 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six engine that comes from the Turbo S and features larger turbos, water-spray cooling, and a titanium exhaust. The result is staggering: 700PS (690hp) and a 0-100km/h (62mph) sprint time of 2.8sec.
