For maximum dexterit y, PSM
can be set to standby while the
car is still in ‘Sport ’ mode (p. 72).
For safet y, it is set to intervene
automatically only when ABS
assistance is required on both
front wheels.
A key component of the Sport
Chrono Package is the swivel-
mounted stopwatch in the centre
of the dashboard with analogue
and digital display.
In combination with Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK), the Sport
Chrono Package offers t wo addi -
tional functions that are activated
by the SPORT PLUS but ton.
First, ‘Launch Control’, which
ensures you achieve the fastest
possible rate of acceleration from
a standing start – on the racetrack,
for example. ‘Launch Control’ is

operated via the SPORT PLUS
but ton with the ‘D’ or ‘M’ drive
position selected. Whilst the driver
depresses the brake pedal
with the lef t foot, the right foot
depresses the accelerator pedal
to the floor. With the accelerator
in the kickdown position, the

The shif t times are shorter, the
gear changes sportier. At low
rates of deceleration, the system
initiates a swif ter, brake-induced
downshift. In manual mode,

gear changes are faster and more
dynamic. In ‘Sport ’ mode, the
PSM system (p. 72) intervenes
later for increased longitudinal and
lateral dynamics. PSM now af fords
greater manoeuvrabilit y under
braking and exit acceleration,
especially at low speeds.
Sport Chrono Package.
Do you think driving a Porsche
should be an even more involving
experience than it is already? Your
wish is our command. On request,
we can equip your vehicle with the
Sport Chrono Package, which is
available for both of the Cayman
models. Its functions enable even
sportier tuning of the engine and
chassis and guarantee even more
driving pleasure.
Selecting the SPORT but ton
on the centre console activates ‘Sport ’ mode, which makes
throt tle response significantly
more immediate, adjusts the
rev-limiter to a harder set ting,

and tunes the engine dynamics
for performance driving.
The optional Porsche Active
Suspension Management (PASM)
also switches to ‘Sport ’ mode,
which of fers harder damping
and more direct steering and,
therefore, bet ter road holding.
With the optional PDK in automatic
mode, gearshif t points are system detects the driver’s
request for Launch mode and revs
the engine to an optimum speed
of approximately 6,500 rpm.
Engine torque increases and the
clutch closes slightly. The message
‘Launch Control’ appears on
the display on the steering wheel
for PDK. The driver now quickly
releases the brake – and prepares
for maximum acceleration.
Second, the ‘motorsport- derived
gearshif t strategy’. Using this, PDK
is geared up for maximum shif t
speed, the shortest possible shif t
times and optimum shif t points
for maximum acceleration – for
uncompromising performance.
Sport Chrono Package Plus.
On request, the optional Porsche
Communication Management
(PCM, p. 92) can be combined
with the Sport Chrono Package
Plus. In addition to the functions
of the Sport Chrono Package,
it includes a personal memory
function, which can be controlled

display for evaluating lap times.
