Was having a browse of Porsche Approved and noticed that the power output of the SD has increased from 258 to 260 HP :D A couple of examples below.

I'm assuming it's part of whatever permanent fix Porsche have made to combat dieselgate. Either that or it's a typo :lol:

Links don't work.

But the current spec SD is 190 kW, or 258.328 HP or 255 BHP.
The extra 1.672PS would be most welcome. About the equivalent of not having a big lunch :)

Could be worse. In some countries the SD is 180 kW (245 hp).

If they put a twin turbo SD out kicking out 300bhp - how many petrol S & GTSs would they sell? I suspect range is set up so they can keep their image while selling a lot of SDs against EU rules on CO2 across range
