Porsche is developing a hybrid version of its next-generation Cayenne SUV and the upcoming Panamera four-door coupe. In an interview with a German car magazine, a Porsche engineer said that the Cayenne will manage 26.5 mpg in the European combined cycle.
That compares favorably with the 18.2 mpg figure that the current Cayenne receives in exactly the same testing with a V6. Germany’s Automobilwoche reports that the next Cayenne is expected for a 2010 release and that it will be slightly smaller than the current model and will lack any off road ability. The current Cayenne has strong off road credentials that aren’t explored by most owners.
