German tuning specialist Ruf has decided to give the Porsche Cayenne the electric treatment. This follows their electrically powered eRuf Greenster, an electric Porsche 911 that appeared at the Geneva Motor Show in March prior to its limited production run.
The latest eRuf variant is the Stormster and it is a plug-in electric Cayenne. It uses the same 270 kilowatt Siemens motor that was in the Greenster along with Li-Tec lithium ion batteries. Ruf says the Stormster will be available in the standard Cayenne body or in a special wide-bodied version."
