2022 Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT driving footage

Officially called the 2022 Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT, it’s the highest-performing crossover to ever come out of Porsche.

However, and this is a big one, Porsche tells us it was not developed by the GT department.

That department engineers and develops some of our favorites, like the 911 GT3, GT2 RS and many others.

The Cayenne Turbo GT adopts the name, but it hasn't been given the exact same treatment as those other GT models.

Porsche took the 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 in the regular Cayenne Turbo Coupe, then made a ton of modifications.

Output increases to 631 horsepower and 626 pound-feet of torque, up 90 and 59 respectively.

That’s still less than the Lamborghini Urus version of this V8 that makes 650 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque, but the Porsche is quicker.
