Fuel consumption of the Cayenne models: Urban in l/100 km (mpg) 15.9 (17.8)-8.4 (33.2); Extra urban in l/100 km (mpg) 8.5 (33.2)-6.5 (43.5); Combined in l/100 km (mpg) 11.5 (24.6)-7.2 (39.2); CO2 emissions in g/km 270-189.The Cayenne S Hybrid has a 3.0-litre V6 supercharged engine. The charging effect of the compressor ensures high levels of torque, even at low engine speeds. The unit generates an output of 245 kW (333 hp). 440 Nm of torque is available between 3,000 and 5,250 rpm, enabling a low-rev, economical driving style while offering exceptional reserves of power.
At 288 volts, the electric machine has a maximum output of 34 kW (47 hp). The benefits of the synchronous motor with inner rotor design are extremely compact dimensions and high levels of efficiency. It also acts as a starter motor and alternator.
[I]Working in tandem, both units provide a total output of 279 kW (380 hp) and maximum torque of 580 Nm, propelling the car from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in just 6.5 seconds. These are the levels of acceleration you would usually expect from an eight-cylinder unit, but with a combined fuel consumption of 8.2 l/100 km in the EU cycle.
[/I][I]The hybrid system features a high-voltage nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery consisting of 240 cells. It provides the electric machine with the energy required for the vehicle to drive short distances solely on electric power.[/I]
The compact battery is located under the loadspace floor in the luggage compartment. Weighing approximately 80 kg, its dimensions are 426 mm x 925 mm x 286 mm.
