Storage compartments.
You could make an escape from every
-
day life or you could fully embrace it.
The choice is yours. It ’s also a lit tle
example of the personal freedom that
the new Cayman models afford you –

not only with performance, but also with
everyday practicalit y. In addition to the
luggage compartment at the front, the luggage space under the wide-opening
rear hatch is impressively roomy.
The lockable glove compartment and

the compartment with a power socket
under the armrest in the centre console
provide plent y of space. As does the
open compartment to the front of it. In
conjunction with the smoking package,
the open compartment makes way for
an ashtray with a lid. Other storage
features include two compartments in
each door, a net in the passenger foot -
well,
clothes hooks on the seat backrests
and two practical cupholders above the
glove compartment.
Front luggage compartment.
Increased storage space is another facet
of your personal freedom. The front
luggage compartment has a capa cit y of
150 litres and is lined with black carpet.
r ear luggage space.
The rear luggage space is both conveni -
ent and functional. Comprising the shelf
above the engine cover and the luggage
compartment behind, it comfortably
holds even long items of luggage such

as sports equipment. A total capacit y
Interior | Interior and comfort
of around 275 litres is available. As part
of the interior, it is lined with carpet in
the interior colour. The luggage protec -
tion bar and inlay are made of brushed
aluminium. Concealed by the inlay are
the service openings for the coolant and

engine oil tanks. Storage compartments in
the upper luggage compartment provide
additional space for your belongings. The separate Driver’s Selection by
Porsche Design catalogue contains
a selection of matching luggage

accessories.
Its most important feature:
freedom of choice.

Toeing the line? Accepting conventions?
Let ting limits dictate? These are not an
option for a sports car that trusts nothing
but its own conviction and follows only
one thing: the code of the curve.
The new Cayman challenges the limits of
physics. It exploits the potential of every
corner and interprets the mid-engine
concept more purposefully, more indepen -
dently and in a more contemporary way
than ever before – in its design, in its per-
formance and in its handling. A rebel in its class and in its family, it is a
true
Porsche that makes the road submit
to its own will. In every corner, it is pre -
occupied by one thing above all: reaching
the next.

The new Cayman.
Single-mindedness is not a character trait
to be cast aside when things take a turn.
