Chief Executive Officer Arnt Bayer said eight units of the RM800,000 second generation sport utility vehicle has been sold.

"The Porsche Cayenne is among the bestsellers in its product range and with the new Cayenne GTS, this makes up a total of six variants that are currently available in the local market," he told Bernama after the launch of the Cayenne GTS.
