2010 PORSCHE CAYENNE brakes

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 new Cayenne.

All Cayenne models have internal­
ly vented discs all round, ensuring
consistent performance during
heav y use. The front disc dimen ­
sions (diameter/thickness) are
350 mm/34 mm on the new

Cayenne and new Cayenne Diesel,
360 mm/36 mm on the new
Cayenne S and new Cayenne S
Hybrid, and 390 mm/38 mm on
the new Cayenne Turbo. All models have six
­piston
monobloc aluminium brake
calipers at the front and four ­
piston equivalents at the rear.
The calipers are black on the new
Cayenne and new Cayenne Diesel
and silver on the new Cayenne S
and new Cayenne S Hybrid. On
the new Cayenne Turbo, they
feature a striking red paint finish. Braking is assisted by a tandem
booster and large brake master
cylinder. Further assistance is
provided by PSM (p. 66).
The pads are equipped with
individual wear sensors. When
new pads are required, a
warning light is illuminated in
the instrument cluster.
Electric parking brake.
Manually activated and deactivat ­
ed, the electric parking brake
releases automatically as you drive
off.
Automatic hold function.
With the automatic hold function,
you can pull away on the flat or a
slope without ever rolling back.
The system automatically detects
when the vehicle has come to a
halt on an uphill gradient. PSM then
maintains the brake pressure at all
four wheels for a brief period to
prevent the vehicle from moving in
the opposite direction.
Braking systems.
Porsche brakes are renowned
worldwide as the benchmark in
performance
and durabilit y.
Equipped with new braking
systems, the new Cayenne
models continue this tradition.
The larger brakes of fer excellent
deceleration – even when the
car is fully laden with five adult
occupants, a full complement
of luggage and a braked trailer
load of up to 3,500 kg (Cayenne
with manual gearbox: 2,700 kg).
Outstanding brake performance.
To the point.

Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB)
To do this, the engine manage­
ment system adjusts the gener­
ator current depending on the
brake pedal position, recovers
part of the kinetic energy and
stores it in the bat tery. When

the pressure on the brake pedal
exceeds a certain threshold, the
brakes are applied.
Porsche Ceramic Composite
Brake (PCCB).
Available as an option on all new
Cayenne models, the Porsche
Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB)
has already proven its abilit y to
cope with the harshest require ­
ments of the racetrack. It is
available in conjunction with
20 ­inch wheels or larger for the
Cayenne Turbo and with 19 ­inch
wheels or larger for all other
Cayenne models.
The cross ­drilled discs are
generously proportioned: on
the Cayenne Turbo they have
a diameter of 410 mm at the

front and 370 mm at the rear,
while on all other models they
measure 390 mm and 370 mm,
respectively.
The discs are made from a
specially treated carbon ­fibre
compound that is silicated
in a high ­vacuum process at
approximately 1,700 °C. The
resulting material is not only

much harder than cast iron, it
is also more resistant to heat. Even at high temperatures, the
thermal resistance of the PCCB
disc ensures outstanding dimen
­
sional stabilit y. The ceramic
material is totally resistant to
corrosion and offers excellent
acoustic damping properties.
PCCB enables shorter braking
distances – no mat ter how tough
the driving conditions. The pedal
response is fast and precise with
only moderate input required. Excellent fade resistance ensures
greater balance when slowing
from high speed.
The key advantage of PCCB is

a total weight saving of approxi ­
mately 50% compared with
equivalent cast ­iron discs. As well
as enhancing performance and
fuel economy, the unsprung and
rotating masses are lightened.
The results: greater comfort
and road ­holding on uneven road surfaces plus bet ter handling
and agility.
Optional for all new Cayenne
models.
Recuperation.
The electronic engine manage ­
ment system on the new Cayenne S
Hybrid controls the braking
process so that, when the brake
pedal is actuated, as much
expended energy as possible
can be harnessed by the electric
machine’s generator and stored
in the 288 ­Volt nickel metal
hydride (NiMH) bat tery. This is
referred to as recuperation.

PSM has three additional func­
tions that help reduce braking
distances. If the throt tle pedal
is released suddenly, PSM

automatically readies the braking
system. The pressure in the
brake lines is marginally increased,
bringing each of the pads into
light contact with the correspond ­
ing disc. If the driver goes on
to apply the brakes, the calipers
respond more quickly and the
braking distance is reduced. In an emergency stop – i.e. when
the pressure on the brake pedal
exceeds a certain threshold –
the brake assist function uses the
PSM hydraulics to apply maximum
braking force at all four wheels.
For added safet y, the system
also readies the brakes whenever
a decreasing distance to the
vehicle in front is detected. The
optional adaptive cruise control
and PSM interact to prefill the
brakes.
Even if adaptive cruise control is
inactive, the system registers the
speed of the vehicle in front and
automatically readies the braking
system. In addition, the system
alerts the driver to the decreasing distance by briefly tugging on
the brakes.
PSM also features a trailer
stabilisation function – for a
significant contribution to car
and trailer safet y.
Within the laws of physics, it
compensates for load transfer
caused by throt tle and brake

inputs up to the maximum degree
of lateral acceleration. It also en ­
hances the car’s driving dynamics
and directional stabilit y when
accelerating on inconsistent road
surfaces.
Other features include a special
control strategy in the ABS
for braking on loose surfaces.
By briefly locking the wheels, a wedge is formed ahead of each
t yre which provides additional
purchase to help slow the car,
e.g. on gravel or snow.
For a more involving driving

experience, PSM can also be
disabled, but remains active in
the background.
Standard on all new Cayenne
models.
accele

ration of the car. Using
this information, it is possible to
calculate the actual direction of
travel at any given moment. If
the car begins to oversteer or
understeer, PSM applies selective
braking on individual wheels to
restore stabilit y. If necessar y,
PSM can also intervene in the
engine management system to
temporarily modif y the amount of
drive transmit ted to the wheels.
Porsche Stability Management
(PSM).
Porsche Stabilit y Management
(PSM) is an electronic control
system that uses a range of
functions – including anti ­lock
braking (ABS) – to help stabilise
the vehicle (and trailer, if fit ted)
in hazardous road scenarios.
Throughout each journey, sensors
monitor the direction, speed,
yaw velocit y and lateral

Adaptive cruise control.
Optional on all Cayenne models,
adaptive cruise control regulates
the speed of your vehicle in line
with that of the vehicle in front. To
do that, the system uses a radar
sensor in the central air intake
to monitor the road up to 200 m
ahead. If you approach another vehicle
that is travelling slower than

your selected cruising speed,

the system slows the engine or
gently applies the brakes (up to
3.5 m/s
2). This continues until the
distance that you have preset is
maintained. If heavier braking is
required, the driver has to actively
intervene. Your vehicle will now follow the one in front at a
reduced speed.
If the other vehicle decelerates
further, adaptive cruise control
will continue to reduce your speed
– even down to a halt. When the
road ahead is free once more,

the car automatically returns
to your selected cruising speed bet ween 30 and 210 km/ h
(19 and 130 mph). To pull away
after an automatic stop, simply
use the control lever or depress
the accelerator pedal.
For added safet y, the system also
readies the brakes whenever a
decreasing distance to the vehicle
in front is detected. Adaptive
cruise control and PSM (p. 66)
interact to prefill the brakes.
The system visually and audibly
alerts the driver in the event
of a critical
decrease in distance
and briefly tugs on the brakes.
Optional for all new Cayenne
models.
Lane Change Assist (LCA).
The optional Lane Change Assist
(LCA) system monitors the area
behind the vehicle and the blind
spot using radar sensors. At speeds of 30 km/ h (19 mph) or
more, the system alerts the driver
of a vehicle in the blind spot or
approaching quickly from behind
via a visual signal from the
exter

ior mirrors. This enhances
comfort and safet y, particularly
when driving on the motorway.
However, LCA does not actively
intervene in the
controlling of
the vehicle and can be deactivated
at any time.
Optional for all new Cayenne
models.
