The front and rear lights of the new
Cayman models can be both. Clear glass
halogen headlights are fit ted on the
Cayman as standard. The Cayman S is
equipped as standard with Bi-Xenon
headlights. In classic Cayman fashion,

the circular front light units with LED
day time running lights and position lights
are integrated in the air intakes. LEDs
provide powerful illumination, respond
extremely rapidly to driver input and
offer improved energy performance

combined with a longer service life. The

manufacturers are among those asking
themselves how they can contribute to

environmental protection. Our answer
has long been the same: Intelligent Per -
formance – a combination of high power
output and high efficiency.
In recent years, Porsche has managed to
reduce fuel consumption across all model
ranges by a double-digit percentage com -
pared with the respective previous model,
even though performance has been in -
creased in every generation. This is made
possible by an ef ficient drive concept,
including direct fuel injection (DFI) and
VarioCam Plus, a lightweight construc -
tion, optimised aerodynamics and low
rolling resistance.
The environmental management team
at the Porsche Development Centre in
Weissach demonstrates a high level of
environmental responsibility. Here, tech -
nological developments are carried out
with environmental protection in mind.
The goal is to enhance performance –
but preferably not at the expense of the
environment. We achieve this goal with
Intelligent Performance, as epitomised

by the new Cayman.

environment.
e mission control.
Vehicles manufactured by Porsche dem-
onstrate that even high-performance
sports cars can achieve moderate fuel
consumption and exhaust emission
val
ues in their respective category.
This is accomplished by the use of fuel-
ef ficient technologies such as auto start /
stop, thermal management, electrical
system recuperation, direct fuel injection,
VarioCam Plus and, in conjunction with
optional PDK, coasting mode.
The newly developed cataly tic converters
also provide ef ficient emission control,
while the stereo Lambda control circuitr y
manages and monitors each cylinder
bank separately. For each exhaust tract,
oxygen sensors, together with the engine
electronics and injectors, regulate the
composition of the exhaust gas, while
another Lambda sensor on each cylinder
bank monitors pollutant conversion in
the respective cataly tic converter.
