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.

Porsche Traction Management (PTM)
on the Cayenne, Cayenne S,
Cayenne GTS and Cayenne Turbo.
Porsche Traction Management (PTM) is
an active all-wheel drive system with an
electronically variable, map-controlled
multi-plate clutch, automatic brake differ -
ential (ABD) and anti-slip regulation (ASR).
Torque is distributed bet ween the front
and rear axles by means of the electron -
ically variable multi-plate clutch. For the
toughest off-road terrain, the differential
can be locked using the PTM control
on the centre console. With the aid of
on-board sensors, the status of the car
is continuously monitored and the front/
rear split is adjusted to match changing
driving conditions. The sensors are used
to measure a range of values, including the rotational speed of all four wheels,
the lateral and longitudinal acceleration
of the car, and the current steering
angle.
If, for example, the rear wheels threaten
to lose traction under acceleration, a
greater proportion of drive torque is
automatically transmit ted to the front
axle by a more positive engagement of
the multi-plate clutch. In addition, ASR
minimises wheel spin. During cornering,
the required level of engine torque is
distributed to the front wheels to ensure
excellent lateral stability.
In conjunction with advanced Porsche
Stabilit y Management (PSM, p. 68), PTM
ensures the perfect distribution of drive
torque for optimum traction in all road
scenarios, whether on long straights,
through tight corners or on surfaces

with different friction coefficients. If one
of the wheels is about to lose traction,
PTM uses the ABD function to apply the
corresponding brake. As a result, more
drive is automatically transferred to
the opposite wheel. If both wheels on
one axle are in danger of slipping, ASR
immediately intervenes and modifies
engine output to maintain drive. As well as enhancing traction and active safet y,
Porsche Traction Management (PTM)
offers exceptional handling and driving
dynamics.Standard on the Cayenne, Cayenne S,
Cayenne GTS and Cayenne Turbo.

All t yres have been optimised with regard
to driving performance, handling, rolling
resistance and weight. They also provide
great potential for reducing fuel consump-
tion and emissions. The three basic com -
ponents of the t yre have been enhanced –
the rubber compound, tread design and
the architecture of the substructure. This
reduces rolling resistance and fuel con -
sumption.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM).
Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM) provides
early warning of any drop in pressure
via the on-board computer display. In
addition, the driver can quickly and easily
check the individual pressures in all four
wheels via the multi-purpose display in
the instrument cluster.

Outstanding brake performance.
To the point.
Braking systems.
Porsche brakes are renowned worldwide
as the benchmark in performance and
durability. Equipped with larger and more
powerful braking systems, the Cayenne
models continue this tradition by offering
excellent deceleration – even when the
car is fully laden with five adult occu -
pants, a full complement of luggage and
a braked trailer load of up to 3,500 kg
(Cayenne with manual gearbox: 2,700 kg).
All Cayenne models have internally
vented discs all round, ensuring con -
sistent performance during heav y use. The front disc dimensions (diameter/
thickness) are 350 mm/34 mm on
the Cayenne and Cayenne Diesel,
360 mm/36 mm on the Cayenne S,
Cayenne S Hybrid and Cayenne GTS, and
390 mm/38 mm on the Cayenne Turbo.
All models have
six-piston monobloc

aluminium brake calipers at the front
and four-piston equivalents at the rear.
The calipers are black on the Cayenne
and Cayenne Diesel and silver on the
Cayenne S and Cayenne S Hybrid. On
the Cayenne GTS and the Cayenne Turbo,
they feature a striking red paint finish.

Braking is assisted by a tandem booster
and large brake master cylinder. Further
assistance is provided by PSM (p. 68).
For greater safet y, the brake pads are
equipped with wear sensors, alerting
the driver when new pads are required.
Electric parking brake.
Manually activated and deactivated,
the electric parking brake releases
automatically as you drive off.
Automatic hold function.
With the automatic hold function, you
can pull away on the flat or a slope
without ever rolling back. The system
automatically detects when the vehicle
has come to a halt on an uphill gradient.
PSM then maintains the brake pressure
at all four wheels for a brief period to
prevent the vehicle from moving in the
opposite direction.

Porsche Stability Management (PSM).
Porsche Stabilit y Management (PSM) is
an electronic control system that uses a
range of functions – including anti-lock
braking (ABS) – to help stabilise the
vehicle (and trailer, if fit ted) in hazardous
road scenarios. Throughout each journey,
sensors monitor the direction, speed,
yaw velocit y and lateral acceleration of
the car. Using this information, it is pos-
sible to calculate the actual direction of
travel at any given moment. If the car
begins to oversteer or understeer, PSM
applies selective braking on individual
wheels to restore stabilit y. If necessary,
PSM can also intervene in the engine
management system to temporarily
modify the amount of drive transmitted
to the wheels. PSM has three additional functions that
help reduce braking distances. If the
throt tle pedal is released suddenly, PSM
automatically readies the braking sys
-
tem. The pressure in the brake lines
is marginally increased, bringing each
of the pads into light contact with the
corresponding disc. If the driver goes on
to apply the brakes, the calipers respond
more quickly and the braking distance is
reduced.
In an emergency stop – i.e. when the
pressure on the brake pedal exceeds
a certain threshold – the brake assist
function uses the PSM hydraulics to
apply maximum braking force at all
four wheels.
Preparing for the road ahead.
With a little help from PSM.
For added safet y, the system also read -
ies the brakes whenever a decreasing
distance to the vehicle in front is detect -
ed. The optional adaptive cruise control
and PSM interact to prefill the brakes.
Even if adaptive cruise control is inactive,
the system registers the speed of the
vehicle in front and automatically readies
the braking system. In addition, the sys -
tem alerts the driver to the decreasing
distance by briefly tugging on the
brakes.
PSM also features a trailer stabilisation
function – for a significant contribution
to car and trailer safet y. Within the laws
of physics, it compensates for load
transfer caused by throt tle and brake inputs up to the maximum degree of
lateral acceleration. It also enhances the
car’s driving dynamics and directional
stability when accelerating on inconsis
-
tent road surfaces.
Other features include a special control
strategy in the ABS for braking on loose
surfaces. By briefly locking the wheels,
a wedge is formed ahead of each t yre
which provides additional purchase to
help slow the car, e.g. on gravel or snow.
For a more involving driving experience,
PSM can also be disabled, but remains
active in the background.
Standard on all Cayenne models.

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.
