also been optimised.
Another of our principles: high
performance should never come
at the expense of comfort or
safet y, and this is something we
have kept to. Even with a car
offering the phenomenal output
of the new Cayenne Turbo. Its
4.8 ­litre V8 powerplant develops
500 hp, which is guaranteed to
set pulse rates climbing and
send a shiver down the spine –
both natural reactions in a
turbocharged Porsche. Standard
active safet y features include
Bi ­Xenon headlights with the
Porsche Dynamic Light System
Sometimes that means us

venturing of f in unusual directions
– as with the first Cayenne to be
fit ted with a diesel engine, for
example. However, it has become
clear that even with a new drive
system, the Cayenne can continue
to remain true to the trusted
Porsche principle.
The new Cayenne and new

Cayenne S are now more powerful
and ef ficient, while also delivering
exceptional capabilit y of f road.
The result: greater driving pleasure
with reduced fuel consumption
and CO2 emissions. On and off road.
This has also been achieved
through the use of advanced
technologies such as direct fuel
injection (DFI, p. 38), eight ­speed
As usual, the critics were ready to
have their say, as with every new
product we create. Can it still be
considered a Porsche? Why have
they done that? The questions

are always the same. As is our
answer: we do what we feel
is in the best interest of our
customers.
(p. 36). For increased comfort
and safet y, Lane Change Assist
(LCA, p. 105) and adaptive

cruise control (p. 104) are

available as an option. Ensuring
a phenomenal sound experience
in every seat position is the
optional Burmester
® High ­End
Surround Sound System (p. 94).
One thing is for sure: the new
Cayenne models are guaranteed
to surprise.
The most innovative – and there ­
fore in keeping with the rest of
the Porsche family – is the new
Cayenne S Hybrid. Its parallel full
hybrid system (p. 28) harnesses
the power of an electric machine
(motor/generator) and an internal
combustion engine. This provides
several clear benefits for the
driver: outstanding sportscar
performance combined with
excellent fuel economy.
Once again, t ypically Porsche.
Versatilit y combined with
superlative performance and
exceptional handling. These are
character traits shared by the
entire Cayenne model range. We
have simply honed and refined
them. For each individual model.
And we have also extended the
range of drives. The Cayenne
now comes in a wider choice of
variants, each one more dynamic,
practical and comfortable than
ever before. And also more
ef ficient. Fuel consumption has
been reduced by up to 23 %
and CO
2 emissions by up to
26 % (depending on the model).
This was achieved thanks to
the Cayenne models being

considerably lighter, with each
one weighing up to 185 kg less
than the respective previous
model. They also feature a host
of advanced technologies such
as the auto start /stop function
Those who develop talent reap the reward.
Sometimes in more ways than one.
The Cayenne models.
12 · The new Cayenne | Model range

When we launched the first
Cayenne in 2002, it was met with
great scepticism. Can it still be
considered a Porsche at all? Our
reply: never before in the history
of the company, has a model
gone from 0 to 100,000 sold
units so quickly. And even more
importantly, the Cayenne has
conquered the SUV market by
demonstrating that exceptional
sportscar performance is not
just restricted to the road.
The basic concept is therefore
the same. We’ve just continued to
improve it: the new Cayenne is
now lighter – up to 165 kg1) depend­
ing
on the specification – and also
more dynamic, more comfortable,
and closer to the road than ever
before. Without detracting from
the
qualities required for off ­road
driving or towing heav y loads.
Its naturally aspirated 3.6 ­litre
V6 engine features direct fuel
injection (DFI, p. 38), variable
valve timing on both inlet and
exhaust, and a variable resonance
intake manifold – for a generous
output and excellent fuel
economy. In other words: we have enhanced the performance,
while significantly lowering the
weight, fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions. The figures speak for
themselves: maximum torque of
400 Nm, 220 kW (300 hp), a top
speed of 230 km/ h (143 mph)
and the abilit y to accelerate from
0 to 100 km/ h (62 mph) in
7.5 se conds. With both fuel con­
sumption and CO
2 emissions

reduced by 20 %.
1), 2) Delivering
this power to the road efficiently,
Porsche Traction Management
(PTM, p. 44) combines active all ­
wheel drive
with an electron ically
variable

multi ­plate clutch, auto ­
matic brake dif ferential (ABD) and
anti ­slip regulation (ASR). PTM
ensures the perfect distribution of
drive torque to all four wheels,
whether on long straights, through
tight corners or on surfaces with
dif ferent friction coef ficients: for
dynamic handling
and increased
traction. Drive is transmit ted
through a high ­performance

six ­speed manual gearbox (p. 42),
which ensures optimum progres ­
sion through the gears. The gear
lever throw is short and precise,
with only minimal driver ef fort
required. In addition to the standard
18
­inch Cayenne wheels and
new larger brakes, the Cayenne
can be fit ted with the optional
Porsche Ceramic Composite
Brake (PCCB, p. 64) – for out ­
standing brake performance.
Another key advantage: a total
weight saving of approximately
50 % compared with equivalent
cast ­iron discs.
The generous standard equipment
includes partial ­leather seats,
climate control, the CDR ­31 audio
system with touchscreen, cruise
control and automatic headlight
activation. For added comfort,
there’s also a ‘Welcome Home’
lighting function. When you arrive
at a destination af ter dark, the
headlights remain illuminated for
a user ­defined period, lighting
your path from the car.
In terms of enhancing the
agility
and practicalit y of the
new
Cayenne, the goal we set

ourselves was very clear: even
more Porsche. Let ’s be honest,
would you have expected any ­
thing else?
Everything has changed. Apart from the concept.

The Porsche ‘S’ has long been
a mark of heightened sports per­
formance and abundant reserves
of power. On the Cayenne S, it
also stands for strength, agilit y
and efficiency.
At the heart of the car is a natur­
ally aspirated 4.8 ­litre V8 engine
featuring direct fuel injection
(DFI, p. 38), VarioCam Plus (p. 37)
and a t wo ­stage intake manifold.
This helps to keep fuel consump ­
tion and emissions low, while
ensuring maximum output. In
short: 294 kW (400 hp), maximum
torque of 500 Nm and a top
speed of 258 km/ h (160 mph).
The Cayenne S accelerates from
0 to 100 km/ h (62 mph) in as
lit tle as 5.9 seconds. Fuel con ­
sumption has been reduced by
up to 23 % and CO
2 emissions by
as much as 26 %.

with smoothness and precision
by the eight
­speed Tiptronic S,
which is now standard equipment
and includes gearshif t controls
on the steering wheel. The result:
optimum use of the available
power reserves.
Of course, to apply exceptional
power like this ef fectively, it
needs to be harnessed and con ­
trolled. For example, by Porsche
Traction Management (PTM,
p. 44). On the new Cayenne S,
this active all ­wheel drive system
features an electronically variable,
map ­controlled multi ­plate clutch,
an automatic brake differential
(ABD, p. 44) and anti ­slip regu­
lation (ASR, p. 44). Working
in conjunction with advanced
Porsche Stabilit y Management
(PSM, p. 66), PTM ensures the
required torque split in every
driving scenario. On or of f road. During performance driving,

as well as on leisurely journeys
or when towing heav y loads.

Since the company was founded
in 1948, we have always gone

our own way. This is the hallmark
of our independent spirit. Only
thus can we continue to meet

our high performance standards.
And yours. For the new Cayenne S
Hybrid we chose a highly sophisti ­
cated technical concept, as we
felt that this would perfectly
embody the key principle of an
alternative drive: ef ficiency.
The new parallel full hybrid drive
(p. 28) on the new Cayenne S
Hybrid features a 3.0 ­litre V6

supercharged engine and an elec ­
tric machine (motor/generator)
that provides add itional power on
demand. It offers levels of accel ­
eration that are comparable with
a V8 unit, but with a reduction of
up to 22 % in both fuel consump ­
tion and CO
2 emissions.1), 2) The
engine delivers 245 kW (333 hp),
while the electric machine gener ­
ates 34 kW (47 hp). Working
in tandem, they produce a total
output of 279 kW (380 hp).
With a top speed of 242 km/ h
(150 mph), acceler ation from
0 to 100 km/ h (62 mph) takes
6.5 seconds. Maximum torque
is 580 Nm.
On the parallel full hybrid system,
the electric machine and a

decoupler are integrated directly
into the drivetrain bet ween the
combustion engine and the eight ­
speed Tiptronic S. The decoupler
ensures positive engagement with
the combustion engine, thereby
offering several benefits –
both for the driver and the
environment.
Under moderate acceleration, the
electric machine can power the
vehicle independently. In order to
drive quietly through residential
areas, for example. The generator
can also be used to recuperate
energy during braking, i.e. for
charging the bat tery.
In addition, the electric machine
can be used to boost perform ­
ance – for faster acceleration,
particularly when pulling away.
Other energy ­saving features
include the car’s abilit y to glide
along, even when the engine is
turned of f. The hybrid system
therefore also brings significant
advantages when not driving in
urban traffic, as the vehicle can
simply ‘coast’ along many stretches of road without any power at all.
Together with the auto start /stop
function, the parallel full hybrid
system offers exceptional levels
of performance and efficiency.
The ‘hybrid’ designation on each
front wing is a discreet reference
to the innovative drive concept
within.
Inside the car, the TFT colour
display in the instrument cluster
provides information on the
current energy flow. Further

driving data is displayed via the
optional Porsche Communication
Management (PCM).
But the greatest benefit of all:
the new Cayenne S Hybrid
is a Porsche. And it drives like
one too.
We continually swim against the tide.
So you can ‘coast’ home.

How could we make the new
Cayenne more powerful and yet,
at the same time, more efficient?
Where should we start? It ’s
obvious, really. 1948 – where
else? That ’s when the values
that we hold so dearly today –
and will continue to do so in
the future – were established.
Af ter all, is there any thing wrong
with having progressive concepts,
social responsibilit y and a clear
direction?

Working in tandem, both units
provide a total output of 279 kW
(380 hp) and maximum torque
of 580 Nm. The new Cayenne S
Hybrid is propelled from 0 to
100 km/ h (62 mph) in 6.5 sec­
onds. These are the levels of
acceleration you would usually
expect from an eight ­cylinder unit,
but with fuel consumption of
under 8.2 l/100 km (34.4 mpg)
in the EU cycle.
1)
On the parallel full hybrid system,
the electric machine is integrated
directly into the drivetrain. The
hybrid module is situated bet ween
the transmission and the com ­
bustion engine. The engine is
engaged and disengaged using
a specially designed decoupler.
The complex interplay bet ween
combustion engine, decoupler,
electric machine and bat tery is
controlled by the electronic engine
management system. It receives
all information on the driving and
energy status and controls both
drive systems to ensure optimum
performance in any driving scen­
ario. It shuts of f the combustion
engine and switches it back on.
Thanks to the ultra ­fast decoupler
and instantaneous engine start ­
up, all of this goes unnoticed
by the driver.
Under moderate
acceleration, the electric machine
can power the vehicle independ ­
ently. For example, for driving
quietly through residential areas
using electricity alone. In
addition, it can be used to boost
At 288 Volts, the electric machine
has a maximum output of
34 kW (47 hp). The benefits of the
synchronous motor with inner
rotor design are extremely com ­
pact dimensions and high levels
of ef ficiency. It also acts as a
starter motor and alternator.
The drive system of the
new Cayenne S Hybrid.
The abilit y to balance the dynamic
interplay of forces has a name:
hybrid drive. The combination
of internal combustion engine
and electric machine has led to
a significant reduction in fuel
consumption. We have opted

for a solution that satisfies our
requirements perfectly: the
parallel full hybrid.
The new Cayenne S Hybrid has a
3.0 ­litre V6 supercharged engine.
The charging effect of the
compressor ensures high levels
of torque, even at low engine
speeds. The unit generates an
output of 245 kW (333 hp).
440 Nm of torque is available
bet ween 3,000 and 5,250 rpm,
