2010 PORSCHE CAYENNE roof

The front wheel arches are
extremely well defined, while
the ‘power­domed’ engine lid
further underlines the sheer
power and resolution within –
this is particularly dominant
on the Cayenne Turbo. Other
distinguishing features include
the visibly drawn ­in flanks. The sharper profile exudes
eagerness and determination,
which is further emphasised by
the dynamic rear roof pillars
and flowing coupé
­like silhouet te.
The rear wheel arches are t ypical
of a sportscar, streamlined and
muscular, while the contoured
roof spoiler pays homage to the
Carrera GT. Further proof of how
harmoniously our performance
concept has been integrated into
our design philosophy – across
the entire model range. The tapered rear screen and
streamlined rear section underline
the flared wheel arches – for a
t ypically distinctive rear view.
The exterior is unmistakably
Porsche. The inside too. But not in
the way you are used to perhaps.
The desire to achieve greater
agilit y, flexibilit y and everyday
practicalit y has led to a complete
revision of the interior (p. 78
onwards): clearly inspired by the
Carrera GT, the centre console
now rises to meet the dashboard
– for an even more involving
drive.
The rear cabin area is larger and
more variable than before. It
features split ­folding seats with
fore/aft adjustment and adjust ­
able backrest angle – for extra
legroom and greater comfort.
In addition, a wide range of
new materials has been used.
Practically every thing has been
changed. But one thing remains
the same: the focus on you and
your passengers.
The contours of the front section
draw the eye, reflecting the car’s
excellent dynamics at first glance.
The elongated engine lid is clearly
reminiscent of Porsche racecars
from the 1960s.
When you look at someone’s face,
you see much more than their
external features. We are proud to
say, it ’s the same with the new
Cayenne models. In fact, what you
see is more sports performance
than ever before.
Children can give you a great deal of joy.
Even more so when they’ve inherited your finest characteristics.

Boasting outstanding perform­
ance and ef ficiency, the new
Cayenne Diesel is ideal for longer
journeys – offering high levels
of torque, while fuel consumption
remains low.
Its 3.0 ­litre V6 turbo ­diesel engine
is powerful and refined. The unit
generates 176 kW (240 hp) and
maximum torque of 550 Nm.
The sprint to 100 km/ h (62 mph)
requires just 7.8 seconds. Top
speed is 218 km/ h (135 mph).
In addition, both fuel consumption
and CO
2 emissions have been
reduced by up to 20 %.
1), 2)
Direct fuel injection comes
courtesy of a common ­rail

injection system. The injection
pressure of up to 1,800 bar en ­sures optimum distribution of the
air/fuel mixture – for enhanced
dynamics. The piezoelectric
injection valves enable multiple
injections for each power stroke
to deliver efficient combustion.
The turbocharger on the new
Cayenne Diesel features Variable
Turbine Geometry (V TG, p. 40),
generating a higher output and
impressive torque, even at low
engine speeds.
Now standard equipment, the
new eight
­speed Tiptronic S
includes gearshift controls on
the steering wheel. Transmit ting
the high torque of the Cayenne
Diesel smoothly and ef fectively,
the eight gears are designed to
facilitate both economical driving
with low fuel consumption and
performance driving with em­
phatic acceleration. Porsche Traction Management
(PTM) permanent all
­wheel
drive with self ­locking centre
dif ferential transmits the car’s
power to all four wheels with
optimum precision and control.
Available as a no ­cost option,
the 100 ­litre fuel tank enhances
the range to well over 1,000 km
(approx. 620 miles) while keeping
the engine rpm and noise levels
l o w.
The new Cayenne Diesel: proof
that a 100 ­metre sprinter can
also run a marathon.
The only thing running low on long journeys:
fuel consumption.

Understatement coupled with
clear statements: lower fuel
consumption, faster acceleration.
Supreme engineering that speaks
for itself. In short, every thing
you’d expect from a Turbo.
Another clear statement is the
distinctive sound from the t win
dual­tube tailpipes. Produced by
the 4.8 ­litre t win ­turbo V8 engine
that delivers 368 kW (500 hp)
and features direct fuel injection
(DFI, p. 38). The car has a top
speed of 278 km/ h (173 mph)
and the benchmark sprint from
0 to 100 km/ h (62 mph) is com ­
pleted in 4.7 seconds. Maximum
torque is 700 Nm. Here too, fuel
consumption has been reduced
by
23 % and CO2 emissions by
2 5 % .

Optimum traction and safet y are
provided by Porsche Traction

Management (PTM, p. 44) active
all ­wheel drive. Also connecting
the car to the road are the new
19 ­inch Cayenne Turbo wheels. The chassis on the new Cayenne
Turbo is equipped as standard
with air suspension
featuring self­
levelling and ride ­height control,
as well as Porsche Active Suspen ­
sion Management
(PASM, p. 51).
This electronic damping control
system offers continuous adjust ­
ment of the damping forces
on each wheel – depending on
current road conditions and

driving st yle.
This enables greater
car control, improving safet y and
comfort.
Comfort is also key in the new
Cayenne Turbo interior. Standard
equipment comprises an interior
package in smooth ­finish leather,
a rooflining in Alcantara and an
electrically adjustable steering
column.
Also fit ted as standard: the
BOSE® Surround Sound System,
Porsche Communication
Management (PCM) with navi­
gation module, adaptive sports
seats with comfort memor y
package (18 ­way), Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM, p. 57), auto ­
matic headlight activation and
automatically dimming exterior
and interior mirrors.
Exterior features exclusive to
the new Cayenne Turbo include
Bi
­Xenon headlights with Porsche
Dynamic Light System (PDLS,
p. 61), larger air intakes and a
distinctive ‘power dome’ on the
engine lid – a clear reference to
the enormous potential within.
Based on the same solid
foun
dations as its predecessor,
the new Cayenne Turbo blends
phenomenal performance with
comfort and ef ficiency. It does
so in st yle but without ever
compromising on any one in
particular. Because we believe
that less can also mean more.
Reduced weight, lower fuel consumption, fewer emissions.
At Porsche, we believe less is more.

illuminated for a user ­defined
period, lighting your path from
the car.
It ’s always a pleasure taking
corners in a Porsche. Especially
when they’re now so visible
at night. The striking lighting
arrangement is also instantly
recog
nisable. The lights on the
new Cayenne Turbo feature a
unique design that differs signifi ­

curtain­t ype airbags on each
side of the roof offering opti ­
mum head protection for both
rows of seats and side impact
protection elements in each
door. Side airbags at the rear
are also available as an option.
Two impact sensors are located
at the front of the car to enable
bet ter detection of a head­on
collision. The driver and front
passenger airbags use a gas
generant based on an organic
propellant. As a result, the air ­
bags are lighter, more compact
and easier to recycle. A roll ­over
detection system provides
additional protection in the event
that the car were to overturn.
Using sensor ­acquired data, it
enables early deployment of
the curtain airbags and triggers
the seat ­belt pre ­tensioners.
Seat belt system.
The Cayenne models feature
three ­point seat belts on all
five seats, as well as seat ­belt
pre ­tensioners (front and outer
rear seats) and force limiters
(front seats only).
ISOFIX mounting points.
The front passenger seat and
outer rear seats are equipped
with ISOFIX mounting points for
compatible child seats (p. 84)
as standard. If a child seat is
mounted on the front passenger
seat, the corresponding airbag
can be quickly deactivated using
a key ­operated switch.
Airbags.
All Cayenne models are equipped
with full ­size front airbags for
driver and front passenger as
standard. These are augmented
by Porsche Side Impact Protec ­
tion (POSIP). This comprises
a side airbag in each front seat,
Bodyshell construction.
Our ongoing development of
the light weight steel body is a
decisive factor in the enhanced
passive safet y and unparalleled
rigidit y of the Cayenne body.
In the event of an accident, a
system of side and cross ­

members at the front of the car
helps to channel impact energy
in a safe and predetermined
manner. The interior is protected
by hot ­formed super high ­strength
steel reinforcements, including
side intrusion beams in each of
the doors.
High strength and consistent
deformation properties: t wo

key safet y requirements fulfilled
by the multiphase steel used
throughout the body. Thanks to
a safet y cage structure made
from high ­tech steels, the highly
resilient passenger cell of fers
