Everything has changed.
Apart from the concept.
Cayenne.
At Porsche, we are continually changing.
Looking for a new and different approach.
Without ever losing sight of where we’ve
come from. That ’s how we remain true to
ourselves.
The basic Cayenne concept is therefore
the same. We’ve just continued to
improve it: the Cayenne is now lighter –
up to 165 kg
1) depending on the specifi -
cation – and also more dynamic, more
comfortable, and closer to the road than
ever before. Without detracting from the
qualities required for off-road driving or
towing heav y loads.
Its naturally aspirated 3.6-litre V6 engine
features direct fuel injection (DFI, p. 40),
variable valve timing on both inlet and
exhaust, and a variable resonance intake manifold – for a generous output and
excellent fuel economy. In other words:
we have enhanced the performance,
while significantly lowering the weight,
fuel consumption and CO
2 emissions. The
figures speak for themselves: maximum
torque of 400 Nm, 220 kW (300 hp),
a top speed of 230 km/ h and the abilit y
to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/ h in
7.5 seconds. With both fuel consumption
and CO
2 emissions reduced by 20 %.1)
Delivering this power to the road effi -
ciently, Porsche Traction Management
(PTM, p. 47) combines active all-wheel
drive with an electronically variable multi-
plate clutch, automatic brake differential
(ABD, p. 47) and anti-slip regulation (ASR,
p. 47). Together they enable the perfect
distri bution of drive torque to all four wheels, whether on long straights,
through tight corners or on surfaces with
different
friction coefficients – for dynamic
handling
and increased traction. Drive is
trans mitted through a high-performance


six-speed manual gearbox (p. 44), which
ensures optimum progression through
the gears.
In addition to the standard 18-inch
Cayenne wheels and larger brakes, the
Cayenne can be fit ted with the optional
Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake
(PCCB, p. 66) – for even more outstand -
ing brake performance.
Another key advantage: a total weight
saving of approximately 50 % compared
with equivalent cast-iron discs. The generous standard equipment
includes partial-leather seats, climate
control, the CDR audio system with
touchscreen, cruise control and auto
-
matic headlight activation. For added
comfort, there’s also a ‘Welcome Home’
lighting function. When you arrive at a
destination after dark, the headlights
remain illuminated for a user-defined
period, lighting your path from the car.
So, a unique blend of the great sports
performance and unrestricted everyday
practicalit y that is t ypical of Porsche.
Let ’s be honest, would you have expected
anything else?

2 emissions and efficiency class data, please refer to pages 150/151.1) Compared to previous model.

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.

As on every Porsche, the interior of the
Cayenne is designed around the driver,
combining sporting st yle with the very
highest standards of ergonomics, com
-
fort and quality.
Particularly striking features include the
way the centre console rises to meet
the dashboard – clearly inspired by the
Carrera GT. This immediately enhances
the interior structure, a continuation of
the car’s dynamic exterior lines. The seat
position and sports steering wheel offer
exceptional support and contact – for an
even sportier ride.
Our benchmark for exceptional driver comfort?
An out-and-out sports car.
Comfort.
A t ypical Porsche feature: the five round
instruments form the familiar cluster and
are slightly raised from the dashboard as
a visual unit. The high-resolution 4.8-inch
TFT colour screen displays information
from the on-board computer or, in con -
junction with PCM including navigation
module, map data from the navigation
system. It also shows the set tings of the
optional adaptive cruise control (p. 110)
or gives various warnings, such as alerts
from Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM,
p. 58), which is also available as an option.
On the Cayenne S Hybrid, the display also
provides information about the energy
management. Oil pressure, oil and coolant temperature
as well as the fuel level are displayed
using analogue gauges, while the boost
pressure gauge on the Cayenne Turbo is
digital. A compass display in the instrument
cluster is available as an
option in conjunc-
tion with PCM. This shows the four cardinal
and four ordinal directions with degree
increments as well as your current altitude.
The steering column offers manual height
and reach adjustment (electrically adjust -
able on the Cayenne Turbo). The steering
wheel rim is in smooth-finish leather. As is the optional SportDesign steering
wheel with gearshift paddles (standard on
the Cayenne GTS) – for genuine race-
st yle gearshift action. Also available as
an option, the multifunction steering
wheel enables easy access to a range of
functions including audio and telephone.

Burmester® High-End Surround
Sound System.
The Cayenne models are marked by
exceptional versatility. With the optional
High-End Surround Sound System from
Burmester
® it could even be said that
they offer concert-hall qualities. Once
you’ve heard it for yourself, you’ll know
we are not exaggerating. Based in Berlin,
Burmester
® is one of the most respected
premium audio manufacturers worldwide.
The Burmester
® High-End Surround
Sound System is available as an option
for all Cayenne models with CDR, CDR
Plus and PCM.
The technologies behind the system
meet the same exacting standards as
those in the company’s high-end home
audio products. State-of-the-art and featured like this in a Porsche for the
first time. The extravagance is uncom
-
promising, the craftsmanship excellent,
the sound phenomenal. The system owes
its eminence to countless details, and
one overriding goal: perfection in sound.
In figures: 16- channel amplifier with a
total output of more than 1,000 wat ts,
16 loudspeakers (including active sub -
woofer with 300 -wat t Class D amplifier),
a total diaphragm area of more than
2,400 cm
2, and a frequency range of
30 Hz to 20 kHz.
Crossover technology has been carried
over virtually unmodified from the com -
pany’s high- end home audio systems.
Analogue and digital filters have been
optimally defined for their new location and finely tuned after extensive in- car
audio testing.
The t weeters are ribbon-based air motion
transformers (AMT) offering unmistakably
fine, clear and undistorted high-frequency
sound reproduction with excellent level
stability.
Furthermore, the elegant, purist design
with galvanised surrounds and Burmester®
logos on selected loudspeakers makes it
clear that the appeal of the
Burmester
®
High-End Surround Sound System is as
much about the visual as it is the audio.
Typically Porsche.
