When Porsche told the world that they would be launching diesel-powered cars, the heartbeat of the auto industry skipped a beat. It was the same feeling we got when we saw cars like the Panamera or the Cayenne originally being unveiled. However, if it wasn’t for these bold moves, we might not be having the Stuttgart-based company to show for at all today.
Fast forward to today and the SUVs and diesels are doing better with the Porsche badge on them than anyone ever expected. In doing so, research in the field was pushed forward and we some really impressive units using compression ignition these days.
Therefore it is only natural that Porsche offers all the bits and pieces all other cars in the range get on these torque monsters as well like Performance Start for example. Don’t know what that is?
Performance Start is the Porsche lingo for launch control. This feature is usually part of the Sport Chrono package and is available for the entire range except the diesel Cayenne. Well, not anymore.
