Recuperation.
The electronic engine management sys -
tem on the Cayenne S Hybrid controls
the braking process so that, when
the brake pedal is actuated, as much
expended energy as possible can be

harnessed by the electric machine in gen-
erator mode and stored in the 288-volt
nickel metal hydride (NiMH) bat tery. This
is referred to as recuperation. To do this,
the engine management system adjusts
the generator current depending on the
brake pedal position, recovers part of
the kinetic energy and stores it in the
bat tery. When the pressure on the brake
pedal exceeds a certain threshold, the
brakes are applied.
Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake
(PCCB).

Available as an option on all Cayenne
models, the Porsche Ceramic Composite
Brake (PCCB) has already proven its
abilit y to cope with the harshest require -
ments of the racetrack. It is available in
conjunction with 20-inch wheels or larger
for the Cayenne Turbo and with 19-inch
wheels or larger for all other Cayenne
models.
The discs are made from a specially
treated carbon-fibre compound that is
silicated in a high-vacuum process at
approximately 1,700 °C. The resulting
material is not only much harder than
cast iron, it is also more resistant to
heat.
Even at high temperatures, the thermal
resistance of the PCCB disc ensures
outstanding dimensional stability. The
ceramic material is totally resistant to
corrosion and offers excellent acoustic
damping properties.
PCCB enables shorter braking distances
– no mat ter how tough the driving
conditions. The pedal response is fast
and precise with only moderate input
required. Excellent fade resistance
ensures greater balance when slowing
from high speed.
The key advantage of PCCB is a total
weight saving of approximately 50
%
compared with equivalent cast-iron discs.
As well as enhancing performance and fuel economy, the unsprung and rotating
masses are lightened. The results:
greater comfort and road-holding on
uneven road surfaces plus better
handling and agility.
Optional for all Cayenne models.

Placing great weight on safety.
While taking things lightly.
Passive safety.
Airbags.
All Cayenne models are equipped with
full-size front airbags for driver and
front passenger as standard. These
are augmented by Porsche Side Impact
Protection (POSIP).
This comprises a side airbag in each
front seat, curtain-t ype airbags on each
side of the roof offering optimum head
protection for both rows of seats and
side impact protection elements in each
door. Side airbags at the rear are also
available as an option.
Two impact sensors are located at the
front of the car to enable bet ter detec -
tion of a head- on collision. The driver and front passenger airbags use a gas
generant based on an organic propellant.
As a result, the airbags are lighter,

more compact and easier to recycle.
A roll-over detection system provides
additional protection in the event that
the car were to overturn. Using sensor-
acquired data, it enables early deploy-
ment of the curtain airbags and triggers
the seat-belt pre-tensioners.
Seat belt system.
The Cayenne models feature three-point
seat belts on all five seats, as well as
seat-belt pre-tensioners (front and outer
rear seats) and force limiters (front seats
only).
ISOFIX mounting points.
The outer rear seats are equipped with
ISOFIX mounting points for compatible
child seats (p. 87) as standard. These
are available as an option for the front
passenger seat.
Bodyshell construction.
Our ongoing development of the light -
weight steel body is a decisive factor
in the enhanced passive safet y and
unparalleled rigidit y of the Cayenne body.
In the event of an accident, a system of
side and cross-members at the front of
the car helps to channel impact energy in
a safe and predetermined manner. The
interior is protected by hot-formed super
high-strength steel reinforcements,
including side intrusion beams in each
of the doors.
Passive safety: bodyshell
Passive safet y: airbags
High strength and consistent deformation
properties: t wo key safet y requirements
fulfilled by the multiphase steel used
throughout the body. Thanks to a safet y
cage structure made from high-tech
steels, the highly resilient passenger cell
offers high levels of protection.

The concept behind every car we build
is based around the pursuit of perform -
ance. This has been the case since
1948. Another of our traditional core
values is efficiency. At Porsche, we are
continually striving to find a successful
balance between the two.
This is achieved using advanced engine
concepts featuring technologies such
as DFI (p. 40), VarioCam Plus (p. 39),
the auto start /stop function (p. 38),
the parallel full hybrid drive (p. 28) and
consistent lightweight construction. Weight reduction is a key aspect of our
design philosophy derived from our rich
racing heritage. Part of our R&D Centre,
the Motorsport Department is located in
Weissach where it shares premises with
the Automotive Industry Exhaust Emission
Centre (ADA). Just a
coincidence? We call
it symbiosis.
In practice: the Cayenne is up to 185 kg
lighter, depending on the model.
1) We
have achieved this through the use of
new, innovative weight-saving materials,
the development of new production technologies and functionalities, and a
series of concept modifications. This

has enabled us to halve the weight of
the tailgate, for example. Innovative
materials are also a feature of the axle
construction, with steel being replaced
where possible by lightweight alterna -
tives such as aluminium and plastic.
The benefits for the driver: greater agilit y
and driving dynamics – with lower fuel
consumption. Efficiency at its best.
Great achievements are something to be proud of.
Even more so if they benefit the world around you.

Noise.
As paradoxical as it may seem, the
distinctive Porsche sound is also created
by what you don’t hear – the absence of
unwanted noise. Naturally, its main origin
is deep within the engine. But that ’s
not all. Our holistic approach to vehicle
design also extends to the acoustics.
Which is why we’ve optimised them for
the entire car.
To minimise ‘play’ between components,
we’ve used stronger, lighter and more
temperature-resistant materials. This
reduces mechanical noise. Large-volume
silencers and air intake manifolds also
help to eliminate noise – throughout the
life of the car.
Tyre noise has been drastically reduced
in collaboration with our official t yre
partners. Wind noise levels have also
been lowered thanks to aerodynamic
refinements. All that remains is a sound that is pure
Porsche.
Servicing.
With lengthy service intervals and long-
life components, vehicle maintenance is
kept to a minimum. In the case of the oil
filter, for example, all that ’s replaced is
an easily recyclable paper element. The
oil filter casing remains on the car.
All moving parts inside the engine are
fully self-adjusting. The valve clearances,
for instance, feature automatic hydraulic
control.
Thanks to single-spark coils on each of
the cylinders, the entire ignition system
on the petrol-engined models, with

the exception of the spark plugs, is
maintenance-free.
These modest service requirements
mean less waste disposal and fewer demands on natural resources. They

also lower the cost of ownership while
keeping your car on the road.
Service intervals for the Cayenne models
are dependent on a range of factors,
including local fuel quality. For full details
of service intervals in your country, please
consult the relevant price list or contact
your Porsche Centre.
Materials and recycling.
Owning a Porsche should be a lasting
pleasure with minimal impact on the
environment. This Porsche principle
can be summed up in one word: sustain -
abilit y. The light weight exhaust on the
Cayenne models, for example, is con -
structed from long-life stainless steel.
Every Porsche model is entirely free of
CFCs and components manufactured
using CFCs. All legal requirements in
respect of recoverability are fulfilled.
Materials are clearly labelled for
subsequent identification and sorting

to facilitate efficient recycling.
While more than 95 % of the car can be
recycled using current technologies, the
chances are your Cayenne may never
need
recycling at all. After all, t wo thirds
of all the cars we have ever made are
still on the road today.

The best seats in the house.
For everyone.
Rear seats.
The rear bench offers generous space
for up to three adult passengers and
is st yled to match the front comfort or
sports seats. For added practicality,
the bench features fore/aft adjustment
of 160 mm and a 40/20/40 split-folding
facilit y. The flexible centre section folds
down to create a load-through facilit y
for longer items such as the optional ski
bag. It also features a folding armrest.
The process is quite simple: unlock and
fold down. The rear seat backrest can be
adjusted by up to 6 degrees: 3 degrees
forward of the starting position and
3 degrees back. When it comes to being
user-friendly, the Cayenne models get
right to the point – quick and easy.
Child seats.
With their unique design, Porsche child
seats comply with high safet y standards.
Available from Porsche Tequipment, they
have been specially tested and approved
for use in Porsche vehicles, offering
comfort and safet y for all passengers
up to 12 years of age (or 36 kg in weight,
respectively). All fabrics are breathable,
kind to the skin and easy to clean. The
covers can be removed and are washable.
All of the Cayenne models have standard
ISOFIX mounting points on the outer rear
seats. These are available as an option
for the front passenger seat. If a child
seat is mounted on the front passenger
seat, the corresponding airbag can be quickly deactivated using a key-operated
switch. All Porsche child seats can be
easily installed via the ISOFIX slot-in
connectors. Alternatively, they can be
secured using the three-point seat belts.
For added safet y, the Porsche Baby Seat
and Porsche Junior Seat ISOFIX come with
their own five-point harness with central
adjustment of the seat-belt length.
