Porsche Cayenne Coupé by Manhart: 800 CV de potencia y un diseño más radical

Although the Porsche Cayenne Coupé Turbo is already one of the best high-performance SUVs on the market today, Manhart has taken it a step further by upgrading its engine to push output beyond 800 CV, along with a styling kit that this tuner has accustomed us to, and which suits the car perfectly.

Starting with the design, the new Manhart CRT 800, as this beast is called, sports a dark black finish with longitudinal and side stripes in gold that accentuate its sporty lines. In addition, it features new 22-inch wheels, rather understated, with gold detailing, although they can also be configured in other colours. Gold brake calipers have also been fitted.

Looking at the SUV’s profile, in addition to its new carbon-fibre spoiler and new diffuser, you can see that it sits lower to the ground compared with the standard version of the model, as Manhart has fitted a new suspension system that lowers its ride height by 35 millimetres and improves stiffness by 15%.

The best of what lies under the bonnet

Under the bonnet, compared with the standard Cayenne Turbo, you’ll find the familiar 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 of the standard model, but with several improvements, including new turbos, downpipes, new connecting rods, a Manhart ECU and a new intercooler for better cooling. All of this delivers no less than 807 CV and 1,090 Nm of peak torque, which compared with the 550 CV and 770 Nm of the standard version are undoubtedly quite remarkable. Paired with the engine is the same 8-speed transmission as the standard model, though with several adjustments for better performance.
