Porsche is upgrading the Cayenne six-cylinder models through a special series known as the Platinum Edition - the Cayenne and Cayenne Diesel Platinum Edition.
One look at the car and it's quite clear why it is called the Platinum Edition. Right from the air intake slats on the front apron, the side window surrounds, the rear spoiler lip and the rear bumper trim strip all come painted in platinum. But Porsche also gives its customers the options of Black and White, as well as optional Meteor Grey Metallic, Basalt Black Metallic, and Mahogany Metallic. The Carrara White Metallic paint finish is also an option available, exclusively for this Cayenne edition. The exterior is rounded off by the 19-inch Cayenne Design II wheels with coloured crest.
The Cayenne Platinum Edition models feature standard Tiptronic S transmission, Bi-Xenon headlights, Power Steering Plus, ParkAssist (front and rear).
Inside awaits an exclusive two-tone partial-leather interior in Black and Luxor Beige, as well as door-sill guards with 'Platinum Edition' logo. All special edition models come with the Porsche Communication Management (PCM), including a navigation module. The PCM features a high-resolution seven-inch touchscreen and a sound system with 11 loudspeakers and total power of 235 watt.
While the petrol Cayenne Platinum Edition puts out 300bhp, the 3.0-litre V6 Diesel punches out a hefty 245bhp. The new models are available for order as of now, with first units being delivered in February of 2014. Basic retail prices will be announced soon.
