Interior.
Creating an uncompromising sports car
takes conviction. Giving it an unmistaka-
ble design takes flair. Driving a car like
this takes both – as well as an interior
that helps the driver to concentrate on
the essentials.
In the new Cayman, this has been made
possible by a newly developed and clearly
presented interior architecture that gives
a feeling of open space and offers plent y
of freedom of movement around the low-
positioned standard Sports seats. At the
centre of this development is the driver.
An imposing feature of the interior is the
redesigned ascending centre console. We believe that the gear lever should be
positioned close to the steering wheel to
enable fast, sporty and ergonomic gear -
shifts. It ’s just one of many principles
that we’ve transferred from the racetrack
to the road. As you would expect, the
ignition lock is on the right. The three-
spoke sports steering falls per fectly
to
hand. Behind it are the three central
circular instruments, which give you
all the important information you need.
The new and generously proportioned
luggage compartment is located under -
neath the wide rear screen. The large
rear hatch above the exquisitely st yled
luggage compartment has a wide opening
angle. The luggage protection bar is
finished in brushed aluminium just like the
inlay bet ween the upper and rear luggage
spaces. Storage compartments on both
sides of the cabin offer additional stow -
age room.
And despite our st yling strategy for
the new Cayman following a clear line,
the finishing touches are down to you.
We offer a comprehensive range of
personalisation
options and a wide
selection of colours and materials.
In this way, you can turn
the new
Cayman into what it was intended
to be:
your Cayman.
Vital to advancement:
a clear line.

A design is either fascinating or functional.
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
taillights also employ LED technology for increased safet y and an unmistakable
appearance – day and night.
