Those who develop talent reap the reward.
Sometimes in more ways than one.
The Cayenne models.
When we launched the first Cayenne in
2002, it was met with great scepticism.
Can it still be considered a Porsche at
all? Our reply: never before in the history
of the company, had a model gone
from 0 to 100,000 sold units so quickly.
The second-generation Cayenne too has
firmly established itself in the SUV
market, demonstrating that exceptional
sports car performance is not just
restricted to the road, while the first
Cayenne Diesel proved once more
that we are not afraid to follow uncon -
ventional paths.
The success story continued to gather
momentum in 2010 – with the sum of the
ideas inherent in every Porsche. Innovative drive systems have led to
greater efficiency: fuel consumption has
been reduced by up to 23
% and CO
2
emissions by up to 26 %. This was
achieved thanks to the Cayenne models
being considerably lighter, with each
one weighing up to 185 kg less than the
respective previous model. They also
feature a host of advanced technologies
such as the auto start/stop function
(p. 38). All this has made our vehicles
more dynamic, practical and comfortable
than ever before.
For increased comfort and safet y there’s
a range of driver assistance systems
including the optional adaptive cruise
control (p. 110) with Porsche Active Safe
(PAS). Ensuring a phenomenal sound
experience in every seat position is the
optional Burmester
® High-End Surround
Sound System (p. 96). The most innovative – and therefore in
keeping with the rest of the Porsche
family – is the Cayenne S Hybrid. Its par
-
allel full hybrid system (p. 28) harnesses
the power of an electric machine (motor/
generator) and an internal combustion
engine. This provides several clear
benefits for the driver: outstanding
sports car performance combined with
excellent fuel economy. Once again,
typically Porsche.
The Cayenne Diesel is no exception.
The drive system is based on the tried-
and-tested Porsche principle. We’ve
just refined the concept, making it even
lighter and more powerful.
The Cayenne and Cayenne S offer
increased power and efficiency, while
also delivering exceptional capability
off road. The result: greater driving pleasure with reduced fuel consumption
and CO
2 emissions. On and off road.

This has also been achieved through the
use of advanced technologies such as
direct fuel injection (DFI, p. 40), eight-
speed Tiptronic S (p. 44) and VarioCam
Plus (p. 39). The interaction bet ween
all components has also been optimised.
The Cayenne GTS: an SUV descended
from a thoroughbred sports car. The
purist among Cayenne models, it is
extremely close to the road. With excep -
tional performance, a reduction in ride
height and an engine note t ypical of the
GTS, it offers one thing above all else:
pure sporting prowess.
Another of our principles: high per -
formance should never come at the
expense of comfort or safet y, and

this is something we have kept to. Even
with a car offering the phenomenal out -
put of the Cayenne Turbo. Its 4.8-litre V8
powerplant develops 368 kW (500 hp),
which is guaranteed to set pulse rates
climbing and send a shiver down the
spine – both natural reactions in a turbo -
charged Porsche.
Standard active safety features include
Bi-Xenon main headlights with the
Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS,
p. 63). For greater comfort and perform -
ance, the car is equipped as standard
with eight-speed Tiptronic S (p. 44), while
Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus,
p. 56) enhances driving dynamics and
stability.
As always, we’ve focused on what ’s really
important. To the point: the Cayenne
models.

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?

The only thing running low on long journeys:
fuel consumption.
Cayenne Diesel.
Boasting outstanding performance and
efficiency, the Cayenne Diesel is ideal for
longer journeys – offering high levels of
torque, while fuel consumption remains
low.
Its 3.0 -litre V6 turbo - diesel engine is now
more powerful and refined, and approxi -
mately 20 kg lighter.
1) The unit generates
180 kW (245 hp) and maximum torque
of 550 Nm. The sprint to 100 km/ h
requires just 7.6 seconds. Top speed is
220 km/ h. Fuel consumption now comes
in at just 7.2 l/100 km in the combined
test cycle.
2)
Direct fuel injection comes courtesy
of a common-rail injection system.
The piezoelectric injectors enable mul -
tiple injections at a pressure of up to 2,000 bar, ensuring optimum distribution
of the air/fuel mixture – for improved
dynamics.
The turbocharger on the Cayenne Diesel
features Variable Turbine Geometry

(V TG, p. 42). Combined with optimised
channelling of the intake air, it enhances
the charging effect, thereby generating
a higher output and impressive torque,
even at low engine speeds.
The standard eight-speed Tiptronic S
includes gearshift controls on the steer -
ing wheel. Transmit ting the high torque
of the Cayenne Diesel smoothly and
effectively, the eight gears are designed
to facilitate both economical driving with
low fuel consumption and performance
driving with emphatic acceleration. Porsche Traction Management (PTM,
p. 47)
permanent all-wheel drive with
self- locking centre differential transmits
the car’s power to all four wheels with
optimum precision and control.
Available as a no - cost option, the
100 -litre fuel tank increases the range
to well over 1,000 km while keeping
the engine rpm and noise levels low.
The Cayenne Diesel: proof that
a 100 -metre sprinter can also run
a marathon.

Power, precision and the potential for more.
Cayenne S.
The Porsche ‘S’ has long been a mark
of heightened sports performance and
abundant reserves of power. On the
Cayenne S, it also stands for strength,
agility and efficiency.
At the heart of the car is a naturally aspir -
ated
4.8-litre V8 engine featuring direct
fuel injection (DFI, p. 40), VarioCam Plus
(p. 39) and a t wo -stage intake manifold.
This helps to reduce fuel consumption
and emissions
1), while ensuring maximum
output. In short: 294 kW (400 hp), max -
imum torque of 500 Nm and a top speed
of 258 km/ h. The Cayenne S accelerates
from 0 to 100 km/ h in as lit tle as 5.9 sec-
onds. Fuel consumption has been reduced
by up to 23 % and CO2 emissions by as
much as 26 %.1) The weight of the car
has also been lowered by 180 kg.
1)
Drive is transmit ted to the road with
smoothness and precision by the
standard eight-speed Tiptronic S, which
includes gearshift controls on the
steering wheel. The result: optimum

use of the available power reserves.
Of course, to apply exceptional power
like this effectively, it needs to be
harnessed and controlled. For example,
by Porsche Traction Management (PTM,
p. 47). On the Cayenne S, this active
all-wheel drive system features an
electronically variable, map-controlled
multi-plate clutch, an automatic brake differential (ABD) and anti-slip
regulation
(ASR). Working in conjunction with ad-
vanced Porsche Stability Management
(PSM, p. 68), PTM ensures the required
torque split in every driving scenario. On
or off road. During performance driving,
as well as on leisurely journeys or when
towing heav y loads.
The design also reflects the impressive
power within. The black slats on the air
intakes make them appear larger, and
the car wider. Other distinctive features
include the 18-inch Cayenne S III wheels.
The Porsche ‘S’. A mark to which the
Cayenne S holds true.

A hybrid is like a good marriage.
Only with two better halves.
Cayenne S Hybrid.
We have always gone our own way. This
is the hallmark of our independent spirit.
Only thus can we continue to meet our
high performance standards. And yours.
For the Cayenne S Hybrid we chose a
highly sophisticated technical concept
that perfectly embodies the key principle
of an alternative drive: efficiency.
The parallel full hybrid drive (p. 28) on
the Cayenne S Hybrid features a 3.0 -litre
V6 supercharged engine and an electric
machine (motor/generator) that provides
additional power on demand. It offers
levels of acceleration that are compar -
able with a V8 unit, but with a reduction
of up to 22 % in both fuel consumption
and CO
2 emissions compared to the
Cayenne S. The engine delivers 245 kW (333 hp),
while the electric machine generates
34 kW (47 hp). Working in tandem,

they produce a total output of 279 kW
(380 hp).
With a top speed of 242 km/ h, acceler -
ation from 0 to 100 km/ h takes 6.5 sec -
onds. Maximum torque is 580 Nm.
On the parallel full hybrid system, the
electric machine and a decoupler are
integrated directly into the drivetrain
between the combustion engine and the
eight-speed Tiptronic S. The decoupler
ensures positive engagement with the
combustion engine, thereby offering
several benefits – both for the driver
and the environment. Under moderate acceleration, the
electric machine can power the vehicle
independently. In order to drive quietly
through residential areas, for example.
The generator can also be used to
recuperate energy during braking, i.e.

for charging the bat tery.
In addition, the electric machine can be
used to boost performance – for faster
acceleration.
Other energy-saving features include the
car’s abilit y to glide along, even when the
engine is turned off. The hybrid system
therefore also brings significant advan -
tages when not driving in urban traffic,
as the vehicle can simply ‘coast ’ along
many stretches of road without any power at all. Together with the auto
start/stop function, the parallel full
hybrid system offers exceptional levels
of performance and efficiency.
The ‘hybrid’ designation on each front
wing alludes to the
innovative drive con -
cept within.
Inside the car, the TFT colour display
in the instrument cluster provides
information on the current energy flow.
Further driving data is displayed via
the optional Porsche Communication
Management (PCM).
But the greatest benefit of all:
the Cayenne S Hybrid is a Porsche.
And it drives like one too.

True, asphalt is rather grey.
But that need not apply to what’s happening on it.
Cayenne GTS.
GTS – three unmistakable let ters which, in
conjunction with the name Porsche, have
writ ten history both on and off the track.
Three letters that combine exceptional
racing performance with superb everyday
agilit y and that, at Porsche, have always
stood for impressive figures.
Good reasons to take a closer look at the
Cayenne GTS. A concept reduced to its
essential elem ents: output, performance,
intelligence. A concept that is true to its
roots: the tarmac – the place where life
happens for purists.
In the Cayenne GTS beats the heart of a
pure-bred athlete that knows only one
direction: straight ahead. The up rated,
naturally aspirated 4.8-litre V8 engine
delivers 309 kW (420 hp) and maximum
torque of 515 Nm. The benchmark sprint
from 0 to 100 km/ h is completed in just 5.7 seconds. Top speed comes in

at 261 km/ h.
The Cayenne GTS is also highly efficient –
thanks to standard fuel-saving technolo -
gies including the auto start/stop function
(p. 38), VarioCam Plus (p. 39) and direct
fuel injection (DFI, p. 40).
The ride height on the steel-spring sports
suspension is 24 mm lower than on the
other Cayenne models – for a lower
centre of gravit y. Also fit ted as standard,
Porsche Active Suspension Management
(PASM, p. 57) is an electronic damping
control system.
The striking central air intake underlines
the sheer power within. The SportDesign
package – standard fitment on the
Cayenne GTS only – includes the following
features in exterior colour: athletic lower front and rear apron elem

ents, dynamic
side skirts, unique wheel arch extensions
and rear spoiler with fixed bi - plane design.
All components have been
optimised
in the Porsche wind
tunnel to improve
their
efficiency and further enhance the
vehicle’s
purposeful stance.
The standard sports exhaust system
delivers an even more distinctive sound.
For the looks to match, it features t win
dual-tube tailpipes with mat t black finish.
St ylish and safe: the Bi-Xenon headlights
with black surround and Porsche Dynamic
Light System (PDLS, p. 63) are fit ted as
standard. The car features the same day -
time running lights as the Cayenne Turbo:
each main headlight unit has four LED
spotlights. The tinted taillights are also
equipped with LED technology. The Cayenne GTS is fit ted with 20 -inch

RS Spyder Design wheels as standard.
These one-part alloy wheels feature a
race-inspired look and brake calipers with
a red paint finish.
Pure sports appeal and exclusivit y con-
tinue inside the Cayenne GTS. The door
panels, armrests, seat centres and roof -
lining are finished in Alcantara. The GTS
sports seats with 8-way adjustment are
highly dynamic thanks to their low posi -
tioning. With adjustable fore/aft,
height
and squab/ backrest angle set tings,
they
also offer exceptional comfort and
sup-
port – even during performance driving.
The Cayenne GTS. Developed so that life
can be enjoyed in its purest form.

Reduced weight, lower fuel consumption, fewer emissions.
At Porsche, we believe less is more.

Cayenne Tu r b o.
Understatement coupled with clear state -
ments: lower fuel consumption, faster
acceleration.
1) Supreme engineering that
speaks for itself. In short, every thing
you’d expect from a Turbo.
Another clear statement is the distinctive
sound from the twin dual-tube tailpipes.
Produced by the 4.8-litre t win-turbo V8
engine that delivers 368 kW (500 hp) and
features direct fuel injection (DFI, p. 40).
The car has a top speed of 278 km/ h
and the benchmark sprint from 0 to
100 km/ h is completed in 4.7 seconds.
Maximum torque is 700 Nm. Here too,
fuel consumption has been reduced by
23 % and CO
2 emissions by 25 %.1)
Not least thanks to a weight saving of
185 k g.

Optimum traction and safet y are pro -
vided by Porsche Traction Management
(PTM, p. 47) active all-wheel drive. Also
connecting the car to the road are the
19-inch Cayenne Turbo wheels – wheels
up to 21 inches in diameter are available
as an option. The chassis on the Cayenne
Turbo is equipped as standard with air
suspension featuring self-levelling and
ride-height control, as well as Porsche
Active Suspension Management (PASM,
p. 57). This electronic damping control
system offers continuous adjustment
of the damping forces on each wheel –
depending on current road conditions
and driving st yle. This enables greater
car control, improving safety and
comfor t. Comfort is also key in the Cayenne Turbo
interior. Standard equipment comprises
an interior package in smooth-finish
leather, a rooflining in Alcantara and an
electrically adjustable steering column.
Also fit ted as standard: the BOSE®
Surround Sound System, Porsche

Communication Management (PCM, p. 90)
with navigation module, adaptive sports
seats with comfort memory package
(18-way), Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM,
p. 58), automatic headlight activation
and automatically dimming exterior and
interior mirrors.
Exterior features exclusive to the
Cayenne Turbo include Bi-Xenon main
headlights with Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS, p. 63), larger air intakes
and a distinctive ‘power dome’ on

the bonnet – a clear reference to the
enormous potential within.
Following our long established principles,
the Cayenne Turbo blends phenomenal
performance with outstanding comfort
and efficiency. It does so in st yle, but
without ever compromising on any one
in particular. Because we believe that
less can also mean more.
