The new generation of the Cayenne Sports Utility will be presented at the Geneva Motor Show in early March, with the highlight being the world debut of the Cayenne S Hybrid, said Porsche in a statement.

Featuring a highly sophisticated parallel full hybrid drive and fuel consumption of just 8.2 litres/100 kilometres (34.4 mpg imp) the new Cayenne S Hybrid combines the performance of an eight-cylinder with the economy of a six-cylinder. And with  CO2 emissions of just 193 g/km, the Cayenne S Hybrid is not only the cleanest version of the Cayenne, but also the cleanest Porsche throughout the company’s entire portfolio.

Led by the Cayenne S Hybrid, all models in the new generation  - Cayenne, Cayenne Diesel, Cayenne S, Cayenne Turbo - are trendsetters in efficiency and performance in their respective segments. Compared with the former models, fuel consumption has been lowered by up to 23 percent, since the new Cayenne, like every Porsche, has been developed according to the principle of Porsche Intelligent Performance: more power on less fuel, greater efficiency and lower CO2 emissions.

European sales of the Cayenne are set for May 8th, with market launch date to vary by country.
