The 2012 Porsche Cayenne – an exceptional all-rounder. The new Cayenne features a 3.6 liter V6 engine delivering 300 horsepower.

For those long rides the Rear Seat Entertainment blends harmoniously within the passenger compartment. Safety comes first in the 2012 Cayenne with Porsche Stability Management. An electronic control system that uses a range of functions like Anti lock brakes and adaptive cruise control. Helping you out when you need it most. The 2012 Porsche Cayenne.
