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.

in partthrot tle mode and through
energy recovery during braking.
A special bat tery management
and cooling system maintains
a constant temperature and
pro
tects the bat ter y from over
heating. It also monitors the
charge/discharge processes. As
a result, the life of the bat tery is
optimised and its suitabilit y for
everyday use ensured, while
offering a high capacit y: 1.7 kWh. Systems that are usually depen
dent on the output provided by
the combustion engine, such as
climate control, power steering
and brake assist, run solely on
electricit y on the new Cayenne S
Hybrid. As they do not rely on
output from the engine, these
functions remain active when the
car is running in electric mode or
when it is ‘coasting’ or gliding
along with the engine turned of f.
In summary: despite its six
cylinder powerplant, the new
Cayenne S Hybrid offers per
formance levels that are com
parable with an eight cylinder
unit – but with significantly lower
fuel consumption.
Also when it comes to hybrid
drives, we’ve taken a completely
new path. Hardly surprising really,
with a technology this convincing.
The compact bat tery is located
under the loadspace floor in the
luggage compartment. Weighing
80 kg, its dimensions are
426 mm x 925 mm x 286 mm.
The bat tery is designed to last
without the need for any main
tenance. As the electric machine
also functions as a generator,
it can charge the bat tery under
certain conditions when the
combustion engine is
The hybrid system features a
high
voltage nickel metal hydride
(NiMH) bat tery consisting of
240 cells. It provides the electric
machine with the energy required
for the vehicle to drive short
distances solely on electric
power.
