The first Porsche since 1995 with a four-cylinder

The four-cylinder under the hood of Porsche has been forbidden fruit since 1995, when a similar engine was last used under the hood of the 968 . Some time ago, however, it was said that the next generation of Boxster and Cayman will get a turbocharged four-cylinder instead of a six-cylinder. So far, this engine has quietly found its way under the hood of a completely different car – the Macan SUV .

In the guts of the baby Cayenne, as the Macan is sometimes nicknamed, the turbocharged two-liter has an output of 237 horsepower between 5000-6800 rpm and a torque of 350 Nm between 1500-4500 rpm. In combination with the PDK transmission, the SUV shoots to 100 km/h in 6.9 seconds, reaches a maximum speed of 223 km/h and consumes 7.5 l/100 km .

Visually, you can recognize the basic model only by the different exhaust tip . Eighteen-inch wheels or dual-zone air conditioning appear in the basic equipment of the basic model, but only for an extra charge will be available a panoramic roof, front and rear parking assistant or PASM air suspension.
