| Straße Test |
The Cayenne is Porsche’s only SUV model, and it’s now Porsche’s best-selling vehicle in the North American market. For 2008, the base Cayenne model gets a revamped direct-injection version of its V-6 that makes 290 horsepower--43 hp more than last year’s engine.
The six-cylinder 2008 Porsche Cayenne is still by no means fast. It can reach 60 mph in around 8 seconds with the automatic, which still places it behind many minivans; but it has much-improved passing ability, whether with the standard six-speed manual transmission or the more popular choice, a six-speed automatic with Tiptronic steering-wheel shifting.
