Porsche Turns Cayenne Turbo Electric's Horsepower Into a Kitesurfing Collection's Limited Run Number

Porsche teams up with Duotone for the second time, but instead of the 911, this collection draws from the Cayenne Turbo Electric — right down to the 1,156-piece limited run that mirrors the SUV's peak horsepower output.

Porsche Turns Cayenne Turbo Electric's Horsepower Into a Kitesurfing Collection's Limited Run Number

An electric SUV's performance figure translated directly into a kitesurfing gear's production number — that's the detail worth noting in Porsche's latest collaboration with Duotone. Spanning kites, control bars, gear bags, and boards, every piece in the collection is capped at 1,156 units, a number that corresponds exactly to the peak horsepower output of the Cayenne Turbo Electric.

This isn't the first time Porsche and Duotone have joined forces — their earlier collection based on the "Pink Pig" concept car has already become a sought-after item among enthusiasts. Choosing the Cayenne Turbo Electric as the inspiration this time around is a bit of a surprise: how do you translate an SUV built around electric power and family practicality into water sports gear defined by explosive bursts of speed and razor-sharp handling? The answer lies in the details rather than the silhouette.

The standout piece of the collection is the new Evo SLS kite, an early-release edition of the 2027 kite lineup, with an engineering logic that echoes the forward-looking performance feel the vehicle emphasizes. The kite's surface layers the Porsche logo over the car's signature "Mystic Green Metallic" hue, while the lines from the front grille have been reworked and carried onto the top edge of the kite, forming a curved contour. The control bar, gear bag, and electric pump carry through the same visual language, keeping the entire set cohesive.

The board lineup is led by the Jaime SLS, paired with the Big Air Handle. The center of the board's underside features Porsche's iconic red logo as an accent, while the deck is finished in the same Mystic Green, complemented by exclusive Porsche design lines for detail trim. Rather than simply slapping the car onto the board, the design breaks down the color distribution and line logic of the vehicle and redistributes it across the deck and base.

The Porsche x Duotone collection is currently available on the official website and select retailers worldwide, with each item offered in multiple size options. Pricing has not been disclosed.
