Porsche has unveiled the new diesel powered Cayenne that will be sold in Europe early next year.

The Cayenne diesel is powered by a 3.0L turbocharged V6 diesel engine that puts out 240 horsepower and 405 lb-ft. of torque. It also manages to get 25 mpg. The engine is mated to the Tiptronic-S automatic gearbox.

The Cayenne diesel is initially only going to be sold in Europe, although Porsche claims that other markets will follow. It remains to be seen how well the diesel powered Mercedes and upcoming Audi Q7 TDI will perform in the US.
