The Cayenne officially hit the market on May 29th, with strong demand pushing the new SUV past the 16,000 unit market in just four weeks. The new Cayenne follows in the previous model’s footstep, which was the best selling Porsche model of all time.

Thanks to its recent appearance at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, Porsche’s UK division has received over 1,000 orders for the new Cayenne. Given Porsche’s Cayenne supply is already limited, most UK buyers will have to wait about four months to take delivery of the new ute.

But unlike the Touareg, which will move entirely to V-6 engines for U.S. versions, the new Porsche Cayenne hangs onto its V-8 options. The entry-level model offers a base 300-horsepower, 3.6-liter V-6, paired with an eight-speed “Tipotronic” automatic transmission.

Porsche had previewed the Cayenne Hybrid’s “sailing” ability, but the production version can switch off its engine at up to 97 mph under light load or during deceleration. This contrasts sharply with most hybrids, which use electric power only at low speeds.
