2009 Porsche Cayenne Diesel Veers Aways from the V12 TDI
Porsche wouldn’t be as slap-on happy as their “sister” company Audi (with the VW group’s close relations with Porsche). With the much-hyped 6.0L V12 TDI engine slapped on a few Audi vehicles (the R8 and the Q7), news ran abound about whether Porsche will also be using the engine in the Porsche Cayenne. Sadly, it will not be so. We just all have to let go of the thoughts of having the massive engine slapped on to a lighter SUV.
The diesel version of the Cayenne will be launched with a much smaller 3.2L twin-turbo V6 (which is also borrowed from Audi) with main reasons being fuel economy (though the V12 TDI is a sipper, actually), emissions, and all the other reasons they can think of to justify the move. Still the V6 is said to still produce a decent enough 300 horses.
Well, probably the Volkswagen group thought of it as overkill. Quite right too, since a whole lot of cars with different badges sporting one engine doesn’t look too good for their fleet. I just think that Porsche should be making their own engines for their own cars. Where’s the novelty in getting a Porsche when you know deep inside, it’s an Audi.
