Porsche Korea Launches Facelifted Cayenne... 133.1 Million KRW
Indoor Major Renovation
Porsche Korea announced on the 17th that it has officially launched the facelifted Cayenne model in the domestic market. The models released in Korea include the Cayenne, Cayenne Coupe, and Cayenne Turbo GT, with deliveries to customers starting in September.
First, the interior has undergone the most significant changes. The brand's first-ever 'Porsche Driver Experience' offers an optimized operation method centered on the driver. Frequently used functions are placed around the steering wheel, and a function for operating the driver assistance system has been added to the left lever behind the steering wheel. The automatic transmission selector lever is located on the dashboard, providing space in the center console for air vent controls and storage.

The driver's seat features a newly designed standalone 12.6-inch full digital instrument cluster with a variable display option, applied for the first time. An optimized head-up display is also available as an optional feature. Various vehicle functions can be controlled through the standard 12.3-inch Central Porsche Communication Management (PCM) integrated into the dashboard. Spotify and Apple Music are also accessible.
A 10.9-inch display is offered as an option for the front passenger seat for the first time in the Cayenne. Optional features include performance data display, infotainment system control, and video content streaming. A special film is applied to prevent the passenger display from being visible to the driver, ensuring it does not interfere with driving.
This vehicle comes standard with a steel spring suspension including Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM). Ride comfort at low speeds, dynamic cornering handling, and roll and pitch control have been significantly improved.
The new adaptive air suspension with 2-chamber, 2-valve technology further enhances the driving experience. Compared to previous models, the smoother suspension stabilizes the vehicle and simplifies on- and off-road handling. The adaptive air suspension improves driving precision and performance while reducing body movement during dynamic driving situations. There are three driving modes: Normal, Sport, and Sport Plus.
Equipped with a 3-liter V6 turbo engine, this vehicle delivers a maximum output of 360 horsepower and a peak torque of 51 kg·m. The Cayenne accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 6 seconds, while the Cayenne Coupe does so in 5.7 seconds. The Turbo GT is equipped with a 4-liter V8 biturbo engine, producing 673 horsepower with a zero to 100 km/h acceleration time of 3.3 seconds.
The prices (including VAT) are 133.1 million KRW for the Cayenne, 137.8 million KRW for the Cayenne Coupe, and 261.9 million KRW for the Cayenne Turbo GT.
The company is holding a pop-up exhibition celebrating the launch of the new Cayenne at Lespace Etna Cheongdam in Gangnam, Seoul, until the 27th of this month. This concept exhibition is open to anyone through the Naver reservation system.
