December 31st, 1969 Hot on the heels of the modified Cayenne Diesel from Techart come a new power and styling package for the big Porsche from fellow German tuner Cargraphic. Priced from a reasonable $1,650, Cargraphic engineers will install a new ECU upgrade to boost power output from the SUV’s Audi-sourced 3.0L V6 turbodiesel engine. Peak output is lifted from the standard model’s 240hp (179kW) and 405lb-ft (550Nm) to a heady (for a diesel) 290hp (216kW) and 465lb-ft (630Nm) of torque – the exact same figures as Techart’s performance kit. Other modifications include a new suspension upgrade for the Cayenne’s air-suspension system that can adjust the vehicle’s ride height and is priced from roughly $1,987. Also available is a series of body modifications, including a new front bumper with integrated fog lights for $2,984, a rear diffuser for $656, pumped fenders for $1,721, sporty side skirts for $1,405, and optional alloy wheels ranging from 20 to 22in in diameter.

Peak output stands at 290hp (216kW) and 465lb-ft (630Nm) of torque
