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.
