Porsche: refuse to be defeated

Porsche shares most " Volkswagen & quot;, and the recipient of the quality of Volkswagen auto components, such as oxygen sensors, VW denied recent accusations that he used Cayenne V6 exclusivity increase profits.
The company was very pleased with its initial level version of the Cayenne leave - roader. Unfortunately, Volkswagen-food V6 version was not in a position to do so at the launch of the updated Cayenne.
The new Cayenne, which was recently presented in the media in north-east Victoria is a mid-life upgrade for the Cayenne four big front drive, which was first launched in mid-2003. In that update includes several major styles and mechanical changes, not only working on the new Cayenne, but after range.
The range increased from two to three, and now includes entry-level Cayenne V6 with a price of $ 97400. It ranked first in the $ 100000 new Porsche since the last 944 coupe at a German manufacturer of sports cars in 1986.
The Cayenne Turbo (V8) and the Cayenne S (V8), or more engines, and delivers more power, but in spite of the engine , Porsche claims that the two models Cayenne fuel deliveries to 15 per cent. In addition, the styling changes have also been made to the minimum just to refresh a two-toned appearance SUV and improves its aerodynamic performance.
Last 2004 562 2005 year sales declined up to 414 and a further decline in 2006 to 332 units sold. But Porsche Cars Australia managing director Michael Winkler optimistic that the new looks in Cayenne, as well as the introduction of V6 engine finally help the band recover.
Winkler also rebuts reports indicating that the Porsche slower than Sokol fleet. He said that such reports could damage the brand Porsche put in a bad light. The report indicates that Winkler, the report concludes that the magazines for enthusiasts claimed they timed one falcons and Cayenne, and found that Falcon can reach 100 km / h in less than 8 seconds, and Cayenne V6 allegedly take 8.5 seconds.
BMW also boasts of 0 to 100 km / h in 8.2 seconds, the time taken to the execution of its X5 3.0 liter engine, which they claimed was 0.4 seconds faster than a Porsche. Even diesel X5 only 0.1 seconds from Cayenne in pace.
There no way for the Australian media to verify whether the Cayenne V6 indeed the fastest car in its class, or whether it has a level of performance and exclusivity that buyers expect because Cayenne V6 was not present at the media launch. Porsche Cars Australia took six cars to Australia for the launch and none of them has been Cayenne V6-they were all V8 models.
Winkler also denied reports that the Cayenne V6 share with the 3.6 litre V6 engine with a $ 20000 cheaper Volkswagen Along with the Touareg on $ 84900 aUDI q7 Cayenne would not help at all. He said: " No, I do not think that they would know that. Remember, too, our system is more powerful [only 7kW], and has been engineered in accordance with the nature and effectiveness of Porsche buyers await & quot;.
Porsche expects the V6 version will increase by at least 30 per cent of the demand for Cayenne. Drive.com.au Winkler said in an interview that in the event that demand exceeds the goals, Porsche will take steps to tighten supplies.
