14 The new Cayman models |
Design
(dual-tube on the Cayman S) adds the
powerful finishing touch.
Compared with the previous model, the
wheelbase of the new Cayman has been
extended by 60 mm, the wheels are larger
Retracted, the spoiler separation edge
of the rear wing makes a seamless transi -
tion to the LED taillights. The integrated
direction indicators are narrow and in
line with the wing. The rear apron with
centrally framed stainless-steel tailpipe and the silhouet te is sleeker. The result is
a more dynamic effect on the eye –
and on the road. The side windows are
narrow. If you wish, you can highlight their
contours with the optional trim strips
in a high-gloss finish. The forward-shifted windscreen coupled with the roofline that
extends far into the rear accentuate the
taut appearance of the exterior design.
The exterior mirrors are mounted directly
on the doors for impressive aerodynamics
and low wind noise. Air intake channels,
wheel arches and the roof are clearly
accentuated. The design of the doors gives
emphasis to the Cayman profile and the dynamic contouring improves airflow
to the side air intakes for the purpose
of cooling and supplying oxygen to this
athlete’s beating heart: the boxer engine.
Where the new Cayman models want
to go is clear at first glance. Every line
and every technical detail is focused
in one direction: forwards. Every aspect
tells a story – of character and perfor -
mance.
