models have a flattened headlight
geometry which gives a broader
look to the car.
The air intake openings are designed
for optimum cooling. On the
Cayenne GTS and Cayenne Turbo,
the central air intake has a larger
cross-sectional area to compensate
for the higher engine outputs. In the
outer intake openings are a pair of
Dynamism and power – both
immediately apparent in every
Cayenne model.
The front-end design on the
naturally aspirated models features
H7 projector-beam headlights.
The Cayenne Turbo has Bi-Xenon
headlights with static and dynamic
cornering lights (also optional on
the other three models). All four
elongated light units containing the
turn-signal indicators and sidelights.
These are positioned vertically on
the Cayenne and Cayenne S, and
horizontally on the Cayenne GTS
and Cayenne Turbo. Another
distinguishing feature on the
Cayenne Turbo is the ‘power-domed’
engine lid.
The rear section also alludes to
the powerful capability of each car.
Integrated within the rear apron
are a pair of single-tube tailpipes
on the Cayenne and Cayenne S,
and dual-tube tailpipes on the
Cayenne GTS and Cayenne Turbo.
The tailpipes on the Cayenne GTS
have a chrome-plated finish. All
four models have a diffuser-style
design on the lower rear apron
plus LED taillights and brake
lights. An extended bi-plane roof
spoiler is available as a no-cost
option on the Cayenne GTS.
The interior space is designed
around the driver in a range of
quality materials. Full leather
upholstery is standard equipment
on the Cayenne GTS and Cayenne
Turbo. Also included as standard
on the Cayenne GTS is a new
sports seat design featuring
greater lateral support and a
comfort memory package (sports
seats optional on all other models).
In short: a powerful first
impression, inside and out, that
is also enduringly Porsche.
The art: creating motion while standing still.

The Cayenne Turbo comes with
Bi-Xenon headlights featuring
dynamic range control and
integrated cleaning, as well as

Safety
The static cornering lights are
extremely useful when turning at
a junction, even at lower speeds.

pair of indicators are located in the
front wheel arches, where they are
visible from the front, side and rear
of the car.
Cornering light function on Bi-Xenon headlights
then calculates the optimum
angle of illumination for the swivel-

maximum of 15°. Visibility is much
improved in every corner and
potential obstacles are easier to
identify. The system is also available
as an option on the Cayenne,
Cayenne S and Cayenne GTS.
