E-power button.
The ‘e-power’ but ton can be used to
expand the range in which the vehicle
can be run solely on electric power, when
heading out of a residential area, for
instance. The throt tle map is adapted so
that the combustion engine is engaged
later than in ‘Normal’ mode depending
on performance requirements. This is
activated via a but ton on the centre
console.
B at ter y.
The hybrid system features a high-
voltage nickel metal hydride (NiMH) bat-
tery consisting of 240 cells. It provides
the electric machine with the energy required for the vehicle to drive short
distances solely on electric power.
The compact bat tery is located under the
loadspace floor in the luggage compart -
ment. Weighing approximately 80 kg,
its dimensions are 426 mm x 925 mm x
286 mm.
The bat tery is designed to last without
the need for any maintenance throughout
its entire life. As the electric machine
also functions as a generator, it can
charge the bat tery under certain condi -
tions when the combustion engine is in
part-throt tle mode and through energy
recovery during braking. A special bat tery management and cooling system main
-
tains a constant temperature and
protects the battery from overheating.
It also monitors the charge/discharge
processes. As a result, the life of the
bat tery is optimised and its suitabilit y
for everyday use ensured, while offering
a high capacit y: 1.7 kWh.
Systems that are usually dependent on
the output provided by the combustion
engine, such as climate control, power
steering and brake assist, run solely
on electricit y on the Cayenne S Hybrid.
As they do not rely on output from the
engine, these functions remain active
when the car is running in electric mode or when it is ‘coasting’ or gliding along
with the engine turned off.
In summary: despite its six- cylinder
powerplant, the Cayenne S Hybrid offers
performance levels that are comparable
with an eight-cylinder unit – but with
significantly lower fuel consumption. Also
when it comes to hybrid drives, we’ve
taken a completely new path. Hardly
surprising really, with a technology this
convincing.

The heart of every Porsche.
Applying power with intelligence.
Engine technology.
Auto start/stop function.
The Cayenne models that are equipped
with eight-speed Tiptronic S also feature
an auto start /stop function. If, for ex -
ample, you stop at traffic lights and keep
your foot on the brake pedal, the auto
start/stop function will automatically
cut the engine. Although the engine is
not running, all audio and communication
systems remain switched on and the
standard climate control continues to
maintain the selected temperature. The
only changes you’ll perceive: peace
and quiet and – thanks to greater fuel
economy – also peace of mind.
The system is deactivated in certain
situations, e.g. if the outside temperature
is very high or the bat tery charge is low.
The starter motor has been revised to cope with the additional demands of the
system, and the bat tery charge and life
are continuously monitored. The battery
and starter motor are replacement parts
that are subject to greater wear and tear
with frequent use of the auto start /stop
function.
Standard on the Cayenne Diesel,
Cayenne S, Cayenne S Hybrid,
Cayenne GTS and Cayenne Turbo.
Available as an option for the Cayenne in
conjunction with the optional Tiptronic S.
VarioCam Plus.
VarioCam Plus creates t wo engines out
of one by steplessly adjusting the inlet
valve timing and lift.
The system differentiates bet ween nor
-
mal road usage and performance driving,
adapting seamlessly as driver inputs
change. All functions are automatically
controlled by the engine management
system. All you experience is responsive
acceleration and ultra-smooth running
characteristics. Inlet valve timing is
steplessly adjusted. To improve response
when starting from cold, for example,
VarioCam Plus selects the higher lift
setting and retards valve timing.
At medium revs and minimal load, the
valve lift is lowered and timing advanced
to minimise fuel consumption and emis -
sions. At low engine speeds in particular, VarioCam Plus significantly improves fuel
economy. To achieve maximum power
and torque, the valve lift is raised.
Overall, the system provides greater
performance with relatively modest fuel
consumption.
Standard on the Cayenne S,
Cayenne GTS and Cayenne Turbo.
Variable valve timing.
The V6 engine in the Cayenne features
variable valve timing on both inlet and
exhaust. The camshaft phase angles
are continuously varied by the engine
management system via rotary-vane
adjusters.
On the Cayenne S Hybrid, the inlet valve
timing is continuously adjusted.
VarioCam Plus
The key benefits include better fuel
economy and lower emissions. It also
helps to generate greater power and
torque – even at low engine speeds.
Standard on the Cayenne and
Cayenne S Hybrid.

The optional T V tuner receives unen -
crypted analogue and digital television
signals.
1) For your safet y, these can only
be viewed via the PCM display when the
vehicle is stationary. In conjunction with
the Porsche Rear Seat Entertainment
package, T V broadcasts can be received
on the rear screens while the car is in
motion.
Optional for all Cayenne models.
Telephone module.
This optional quad-band GSM telephone
module combines ease of use with
optimised sound quality. Simply insert
your mobile phone SIM card in the slot
in PCM to make calls via the hands-free
facility or optional Bluetooth
® handset.
For even greater convenience, you can
use a Bluetooth
® SIM Access Profile
(SAP)-compatible handset. Once connect -
ed, the GSM antenna on the mobile
phone is disabled to prolong battery
life and the external vehicle antenna
is utilised instead. Depending on the
phone model, you can access contact
details on the mobile phone SIM card
and internal memory and perform all
operations via PCM, voice control or
the multifunction steering wheel, which
means your phone can remain in your
pocket. In addition, the telephone module
enables you to establish a Bluetooth
®
connection to a mobile phone that only
supports the Hands-Free Profile (HFP).
In this case, the GSM connection to
the mobile phone network is via the
handset antenna. PCM acts as a hands-
free system.
A cordless handset with keypad and
display is also available as an option.
This is stowed in the centre console.
However, the handset cannot be used
to establish a Bluetooth
® connection
using the Hands-Free Profile (HFP).
Optional for all Cayenne models.
Voice control.
Do you wish to get to the point – or your
required destination – more quickly? All
you have to do is say so. The optional
voice control system with whole-word
recognition is at your command – without
the tedious task of voice learning. This
means that the voice control system can
recognise the input of an entire address
for a navigational destination, telephone
book entries or radio station names.
Audio prompts make voice inputs even
simpler. You can also browse through
lists by voice command.
Optional for all Cayenne models.
Mobile phone preparation.
With this optional preparation, you can
establish a Bluetooth
® connection with
a mobile phone that only supports the
Hands-Free Profile (HFP) and use the
CDR or CDR Plus audio system, or PCM
as a hands-free system. As a Bluetooth
®-
based solution, you can connect your
handset without even taking it out of your
pocket. The basic phone functions are
accessible via the audio system head
unit. Connection to the mobile phone net -
work is via the handset antenna.
Optional for all Cayenne models.
Universal audio interface.
On vehicles with the CDR audio system,
this optional package located in the front
centre console provides an AUX-In port,
e.g. for a compatible MP3 player. On
vehicles equipped with PCM, the package
includes an AUX-In port and a USB port
which can be used to connect an iPod
®.
The iPod
® as well as other compatible
MP3 players or memory sticks connect -
ed via USB can be operated using PCM.
When listening to music, the system now
also displays the album cover (cover art).
Using the jukebox function, you can store
and play up to 5,000 MP3 files on the
40GB hard drive integral to PCM.
Optional for all Cayenne models.
