The Cayenne Turbo is the fastest SUV on the planet Porsche


With an MSRP of $93,700, it is also the most expensive. In fact, it is the second-most expensive production SUV currently on the North American market after the Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG, which has an MSRP of $108,275. However, fully loaded the Turbo can cost as much as $134,000, depending on options, while the G55 only climbs to around $110,000. The tester that I drove, which had such options as 21-in. sport wheels and dynamic chassis control, was priced at a relatively modest $106,595.

The Porsche (PSHG_P), however, is faster. It can go from zero to 60 mph in 4.9 seconds (in manual mode), whereas the squat G55, which has the aerodynamics of a brick, does it in 5.4 seconds. The Turbo’s 500-horsepower turbocharged V-8 is faster to 60 mph than both the Porsche Cayman and Porsche Boxster. That’s because it also has Porsche’s second-most powerful production engine after the Carrera GT. And, unlike those two coupes, it can comfortably seat four passengers, several pieces of luggage, and a golden retriever.
