Relax and take things easy –
in dynamic style.
Everyone needs to escape the everyday
stresses and strains from time to time.
Some people like to do this by exploring
a more dynamic side of life.
In the new Cayenne GTS beats the heart
of a pure athlete that knows only one
direction: straight ahead. The uprated,
naturally aspirated 4.8-liter V8 engine
delivers 420 hp at 6,500 rpm. Maximum
torque of 380 lb.-ft. is available at
3,500 rpm. The benchmark sprint from
0 to 60 is completed in just 5.4 seconds.
Top track speed comes in at 162 mph.
The engine power of the new Cayenne GTS
is 20 hp higher and boasts an added
11 lb.-ft. of torque compared to the

Cayenne S. A shorter drive ratio further
enhances the car’s agilit y. So you feel the
pulse of the road – every inch of the way. Drive is transmit ted to the road with
smoothness and precision by the stand
-
ard eight-speed Tiptronic S. Depending
on road conditions and driving st yle, it
automatically selects the correct driving
mode. You can change gear using t wo
gearshift paddles on the standard
SportDesign steering wheel. One pull
on the right-hand paddle and Tiptronic S
shifts up. One pull on the left-hand
paddle and Tiptronic S shifts down.
As you’d expect from a true top performer,
the new Cayenne GTS is also highly
efficient. Thanks to intelligent
performance.
Standard fuel-saving technologies include
the Auto Start Stop function, VarioCam
Plus and Direct Fuel Injection (DFI). DFI
injects fuel directly into the combustion
chamber with millisecond precision using
electromagnetic injectors. This increases the air/fuel mix, thereby enhancing com
-
bustion for higher output and torque with
lower fuel consumption and emissions. Thermal management activates the differ
-
ent cooling circuits individually, thereby
ensuring that the optimum temperature
for the engine and transmission is reached
more quickly after a cold start. This
minimizes friction and keeps fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions low
during warm-up. The standard sport exhaust system

delivers an even more distinctive sound.
For the looks to match, it features t win
dual-tube tailpipes finished in matte black.

The drive system on the new Cayenne GTS
is designed for one thing above all else:
Performance.

1) The unladen weight (EC) complies with the relevant EC Directives and is valid for standard specification vehicles only. Some items of optional equipment can increase this weight. The figure specified includes 68 kg representing the driver and 7 kg for luggage.2)
The data presented here was recorded using the Euro 5 test procedure (715/2007/ EC, 692/2008/ EC, 566/2011/EC and ECE- R 101) and the NEDC (New European Driving Cycle). The respective figures were not recorded on
individual vehicles and do not constitute par t of the of fer. This data is provided solely for the purposes of compari -
son between the respective models. Fuel consumption was recorded on vehicles with standard specification.
Optional equipment may affect fuel consumption and vehicle performance. Fuel consumption and CO
2 emissions
are not only determined by a vehicle’s fuel ef ficiency, but also by the driving st yle and other factors irrespective
of vehicle specification. All current petrol engines from Porsche are compatible with a fuel ethanol content of up
to 10 %. For more information on individual models, please contact your Porsche Center.

The Cayenne.
The success story of the Cayenne con-
tinues to gather momentum – thanks to
its enhanced emotional appeal, it is more
dynamic, practical and comfortable than
ever before. And also more efficient.
The V6 Cayenne is more powerful and
economical, while also delivering excep -
tional capability off road.Intelligent: the Cayenne S Hybrid. Its
parallel full hybrid system harnesses the
power of an electric machine and an
internal combustion engine. Working in
tandem, they produce a total output of
380 hp – for outstanding sports car
performance combined with excellent
fuel economy. The same is true of the Cayenne Diesel.
We’ve just refined the concept, increasing
the car’s power and efficiency.
The
Porsche ‘S’ has long been a mark
of heightened
sports performance and
abundant reserves of power. On the
Cayenne S, it also stands for strength,
agilit y and efficiency. In short: 400 hp
and a top track speed of 160 mph. The Cayenne Turbo makes clear state
-
ments in terms of its design, equipment,
output and efficiency. Its 4.8-liter
twin-turbo-V8 powerplant develops
500 hp. With a maximum speed of
172 mph, this car proves that high

performance and driving dynamics need
not come at the expense of comfort and

safety.
As always, we’ve focused on
what ’s really important. To the point:
the Cayenne models.
Purism, personality and performance.
