A HEFTY SUV powered by a thirsty petrol V8 engine may not be at the top of everyone's must-have list (especially with today's sky-high fuel prices), but with the new Cayenne Coupé Turbo GT, Porsche makes a very convincing argument for acquiring one.
While some of you will be lucky enough to have the wherewithal to buy an exotic sports car, such machines typically don't gel with family life very well. Of course, you could buy a sports car and family car to cover all bases, but what if you only have space for one car on the drive? This is where the Turbo GT comes in.
This flagship model of the Cayenne Coupé range rivals the Aston Martin DBX and Lamborghini Urus; the Turbo GT's twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre petrol V8 sits in between those rivals in terms of power output. And while its 631bhp falls 10bhp shy of what the Urus can muster, it's still enough to propel this sizeable five-seat SUV from 0-62mph in just 3.3sec. That's quicker than a 911 GT3.
