63
Sport Chrono Package.
Better performance would normally be
impossible to achieve without more inten -
sive training. In the new Cayman models,
it comes at the push of a but ton. The
optional Sport Chrono Package provides
simultaneous enhancement for the chas -
sis, engine and transmission – accom -
panied by an even more emotive sound.
In addition to the performance display,
a digital and an analogue stopwatch,

the Sport Chrono Package also includes
dynamic gearbox mounts (p. 64). Another
component is the SPORT PLUS but ton.
When this is pressed, optional Porsche
Active Suspension Management (PASM)
switches to ‘Sport ’ mode for harder
damping and more direct steering and,
therefore, even more intensive road

holding.
The trigger threshold for PSM is raised.
Agilit y is perceptibly enhanced when
braking for corners with PSM, allowing
even sportier braking and exit accelera -
tion. For even greater dexterit y, PSM can
be set to standby while the car is still in
SPORT PLUS mode. For safet y, it is set
to intervene automatically only when ABS
assistance is required.
The throttle-blip function produces even
sportier gearshifts. A managed burst
of throt tle ensures smooth load changes
for increased stabilit y and makes the
gearshift process an even more engaging
experience.
In conjunction with optional PDK, the
Sport Chrono Package comes with t wo
additional functions for a sport y drive
that borders on a motorsport experience. The first is ‘Launch Control’, which is de
-
signed to produce a racing start.
The second function is the ‘motorsport-
derived gearshift strategy’. In this mode,
PDK is designed for very short shift times
and optimum shift points, while torque
boosts during gear changes provide the
maximum acceleration available. Thi
s
involving experience is further enhanced
by overrun downshifts and the throt tle-
blip function for uncompromising driving
pleasure.
An additional display in the steering wheel
and instrument cluster indicates whether
the SPORT or SPORT PLUS but tons
and, with PDK, Launch Control have been
activated. In conjunction with optional
Porsche Communication Management
(PCM), a special display enables you to

view, store and evaluate lap times or other
driving times. It shows the total driving
time, lap distance, lap number and lap
times recorded so far.

76 Safety and environment |
Environment
Fuel economy and recycling.
Intelligent lightweight construction is, and
always has been, a fundamental aspect of
the Porsche philosophy – for both techni -
cal and ecological reasons. This combina -
tion forms the basis for achieving low fuel
consumption values in conjunction with
high performance. On the technical side,
various components are made with a high
proportion of alu minium, magnesium, plas -
tics and super- high -strength sheet steel.
The materials used have been selected
for their abilit y to withstand load, yet they
are considerably lighter than conventional
steel. As a result, the bodyshell of the new
Cayman models has a light alloy content
of approximately 44 %.
On the ecological side, all materials used
are meticulously selected. We use only state-of-the-art components, with priority
given to products manufactured in a sus
-
tainable manner where possible. All syn -
thetic components are easily recyclable
and each material is labelled to facilitate
its separation for recycling. The reduction
in the number of plastic variants helps to
ensure more efficient recycling. Recycled
plastics are used where they meet our
exacting technical requirements.
In short, the new Cayman is around 95 %
recoverable.
In addition, Porsche uses a high proportion
of environmentally friendly water-based
paints. For us, environmental protection
does not begin with the vehicle manufac -
turing process. It starts at the planning
and development stage.
Fuel.
The new Cayman models are designed to
operate on fuels with an ethanol content of
up to 10 %. Ethanol has a positive impact
on the CO2 balance since the plants grown
for the production of this biofuel also
absorb CO
2 from the atmosphere. The
release of hydrocarbons from the fuel

system has been minimised thanks to the
active carbon filter and the multilayered
material from which the fuel tank is made.
Servicing.
Long service intervals offer clear advan -
tages. For you, they reduce costs and
save time. For the environment, they assist
in the sparing use of consumables and
replacement parts. For full details of ser -
vice intervals, please refer to the separate
price list.

2 emissions and efficiency class, please refer to page 131.
