features include Bi-Xenon main
headlights with the Porsche
Dynamic Light System (PDLS,
p. 61). For greater comfor t and
performance, the car is equipped
as standard with eight-speed
Tiptronic S (p. 42), while Porsche
Torque Vectoring Plus (PT V Plus,
p. 50) enhances driving dynamics
and stabilit y.
As always, we’ve focused on
what ’s really important. To the
point: the Cayenne models.through the use of advanced
technologies such as direct fuel
injection (DFI, p. 38), eight-speed
Tiptronic S (p. 42) and VarioCam
Plus (p. 37). The interaction
bet ween all components has
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
of fering the phenomenal output
of the 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
performance combined with
excellent fuel economy.
Once again, t ypically Porsche.
The Cayenne Diesel is no excep-
tion. The drive system is based
on the tried-and-tested Porsche
principle. We’ve just refined the
concept, making it even lighter
and more powerful. This is
what we call Porsche Intelligent
Performance.
The Cayenne and Cayenne S
offer increased power and
efficiency,
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
The most innovative – and
therefore in keeping with the rest
of the Porsche family – is the
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
them more dynamic, ef ficient,
practical and comfor table than
ever before. Fuel consumption has
been reduced by up to 23 % and
CO
2 emissions by up to 26 % (de-
pending 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 (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).
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.
The second -generation Cayenne
too has firmly established itself
in the SUV market, demonstrating
that exceptional sportscar per-
formance is not just restricted to
the road, while the first Cayenne
Diesel proved once more that we
are not afraid to follow unconven-
tional paths.
The success story continued to
gather momentum in 2010 – with
Porsche Intelligent Performance.
The sum of the ideas inherent
in every Porsche. Ideas that have
led us to develop new drive sys-
tems, enhancing the emotional
appeal of our vehicles and making
Those who develop talent reap the reward.
Sometimes in more ways than one.
The Cayenne models.
12 · The Cayenne | Model range
At Porsche, we are continually
changing. Looking for a new and
dif ferent approach. Without ever
losing sight of where we’ve come
from. That ’s how we remain true
to ourselves.
The basic Cayenne concept is
therefore the same. We’ve just
continued to improve it: the
Cayenne is
now lighter – up to
165 kg
1) depending on the speci-
fication
– 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 econ-
omy. In other words: we have
enhanced the performance, while
significantly lowering the weight,
fuel consumption and CO
2 emis-
sions. 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
consumption 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
enables 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.
In addition to the standard
18-inch Cayenne wheels and
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.
So, a unique blend of the great
sports performance and unre-
stricted everyday practicalit y that
is t ypical of Porsche. Let ’s be
honest, would you have expected
any thing else?
Everything has changed. Apart from the concept.

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 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

lines. The seat position and
sports steering wheel offer
exceptional support and contact
– for an even sportier ride.A t ypical Porsche feature: the
five round instruments form the
familiar cluster and are slightly
raised from the dashboard as
a visual unit. The high -resolution
4.8-inch TFT colour screen
displays information from the on-
board computer or, in conjunction
with PCM including navigation
module, map data from the navi-
gation system. It also shows the
set tings of the optional adaptive
cruise control or gives various
warnings, such as alerts from
Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM),
which is also available as an
option. On the Cayenne S Hybrid, the display also provides
information about the energy
management.
Oil pressure, oil and coolant
temperature as well as the fuel
level are displayed using analogue
gauges, while the boost pressure
gauge on the Cayenne Turbo is
digital. A compass display in
the instrument cluster is available
as an option in conjunction with
PCM. This shows the four cardinal
and four ordinal directions with
degree increments as well as your
current altitude.
The steering column offers man-
ual height and reach adjustment
(electrically adjustable on the
Cayenne Turbo). The steering
wheel rim is in smooth-finish
leather. As is the optional
SportDesign steering wheel with
gearshif t paddles – for genuine

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. 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 Cayenne
models.
Lane Change Assist (LCA).
Lane Change Assist (LCA )
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 Cayenne
models.
