Porsche: Cayenne breaks the SUV record 🎥

To protect the driver, the record Cayenne was equipped with a racing seat and a safety cage

The notarized time of 7:38.9 minutes is considered a new record in the official ranking of the Nürburgring GmbH in the category SUV, off-road vehicles, vans and pick-ups.

Vehicle shows no tendency to understeer

Test driver Lars Kern had accompanied the development of the new car extensively: "In the fast corners, such as between the Hohe Acht and the ice curve, the direction changes work as fast as lightning. The car doesn't teeter and has no tendency to understeer. Even in this technical area, the Cayenne is an absolute driver's car that is easy to control."

Test driver Lars Kern: "This Cayenne delivers power in every situation, and the gear changes fit perfectly."

All-rounder and top athlete in one car

"The powertrain also makes a superior impression. It delivers power in every situation, and the gear changes fit perfectly," reports Kern, and series manager Stefan Weckbach adds: "This Cayenne model is a top athlete. During development, we focused on exceptional on-road performance. The record-breaking Cayenne is based on the current Cayenne Turbo Coupé, but has been designed even more consistently for maximum longitudinal and lateral dynamics."

Record drive with performance tires Pirelli P
To protect the driver, the Rekord Cayenne was equipped with a racing seat and a safety cage. The still lightly camouflaged SUV will soon celebrate its world premiere. The 22-inch Pirelli P Zero Corsa performance tire used in the record drive was developed specifically for the new model and will be used as standard.
