In addition to the added power, there has also been an increase in maximum torque by 50Nm to 750Nm within an engine speed range of 2,250rpm to 4,500rpm. This is enough to see the car accelerate from zero to 100km/h in 4.8 seconds and reach a top speed of 280km/h.
From the outside, the Turbo S can be recognized by 21in SportPlus alloys housed within painted wheel arches and a sports exhaust system with quad tail pipes made from aluminum. The air intake grills and wheel arches are painted the same color as the car body and a new ‘lava gray metallic’ option has been added to the color palette.
Porsche has also added its carbon-brake option to the Cayenne lineup for the first time, with 410mm discs and six-piston calipers up front and 370mm discs with four-piston calipers at the rear.
Inside, there’s a voice-operated navigation system, Bluetooth connectivity, a TV module and a 14 speaker Bose stereo system. The Turbo S will be introduced into the market as from August 2008 and will be priced from €111,400.

Truly the most capable and ugliest vehicle made at the present time...
Used to be the WRX STi, but now that one looks good.
And the trouble is, you see hundreds of them every day driven by perfectly coiffed trophy wives here in Newport Beach, who never push the throttle past 1/4 of the way...

Gus, for goodness sake, the Cayenne Turbo S is an AMAZING car and I've got it. The acceleration is amazing and can take corners better than any kind of Ferrari. It needs respect Gus.

LOL ! Porsche should use the Cayenne instead of the 997 GT3 RSR to beat the Ferrari 430 in GT2 class...
