Porsche Macan and Cayenne by TechArt
Need more power to Porsche's SUV lineup? Techart has just released new powerkits that boost the
Macan and Cayenne flagship models by a considerable amount.
The powerkits are available for the
entire range of Macan and Cayenne SUVs, but if you're most interested in just
how much power Techart has managed to extract out of those engines, well, it's
480 PS and 650 Nm of torque for the Macan Turbo and a whooping 720
PS and 920 Nm for the Cayenne Turbo S.
Responsible for the Macan Turbo's power
gain is the Techart Techtronic kit (€ 24,500) that's integrated into the
vehicle's CAN data bus system. With its help, the Macan Turbo will now hit 100
km/h in just 4.4 seconds (4.6 s factory standard), with an increased
top speed of 274 km/h.
For the Cayenne Turbo S, aside from the
Techtronic engine management, the tuner also included new turbochargers,
exhaust manifolds, oil and water lines and sport air filters - developed especially
for this powerkit (€ 24,500). At its best, the Cayenne Turbo S can now reach 311
km/h, instead of the factory standard 284 km/h.
Purchasing the powerkit
costs the same regardless of which Porsche SUV you own, however, the prices do
not include VAT and installation.
In order to activate the permanent power
boost while on the go, the driver simply needs to switch from Normal to
Sport/Sport Plus mode by using either the standard Sport button situated on the
center console or the Mode Selector on the steering wheel.
