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?

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.

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.

Driving with foresight.
Quite literally.
Active safety.
It’s always a pleasure taking corners
in a Porsche. Especially when they’re
now so visible at night. The striking
lighting arrangement is also instantly
recognisable.
Automatic headlight activation.
The headlights are automatically
switched on when darkness sets in
or when driving through a tunnel in the
daytime. Other features include an auto -
matic switch-off and ‘Welcome Home’
function – when you arrive at a destin -
ation after dark, the headlights remain
illuminated for a user-defined period,
lighting your path from the car.
Standard on all Cayenne models.
Halogen main headlights.
The projector-beam halogen main head -
lights feature automatic static range
control and reflection high-beam lights –
for optimum illumination of the road.
Standard on the Cayenne, Cayenne
Diesel, Cayenne S and Cayenne S
Hybrid.
Bi-Xenon main headlights with
Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS).
The Bi-Xenon main headlights – which
also have a black surround on the
Cayenne GTS – feature halogen auxiliary
headlights, integrated headlight cleaning
and automatic dynamic range control.
This provides more uniform illumination
of the road in both dipped and high-beam
mode. The dynamic cornering light function
swivels the main headlights towards the
inside of a bend based on the current
steering angle and road speed. The static
cornering lights activate the auxiliary
headlights in order to illuminate more of
the road in tight bends and turns.
PDLS also features speed-sensitive
headlight control and an adverse
weather function, which is activated

in conjunction with the rear foglight –
for even greater safet y, not just at night
and during cornering.


Standard on the Cayenne GTS and
Cayenne Turbo. Optional for all other
Cayenne models.

Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus
(PDLS Plus).
PDLS Plus offers t wo additional func -
tions: high Beam Assistant recognises
oncoming vehicles and automatically
switches the headlights from high beam
to dipped beam.
As you approach a crossing, Intersection
Assistant activates the left and right
indicators, making the beam of light
broader and shorter. This improves illu -
mination of the area directly surrounding
the vehicle, making the driver more
aware of what ’s going on around him.
Optional for all Cayenne models.
Daytime running lights.
Fit ted as standard on all Cayenne
models: LED day time running lights. On the Cayenne, Cayenne Diesel,
Cayenne S and Cayenne S Hybrid, these
are arranged horizontally in the front light
units, whereas on the Cayenne GTS and
the Cayenne Turbo each main
headlight
unit has four LED spotlights. Day time
running lights improve safet y in the
day time as they make you more visible
to other road users.
Taillights.
LED technology is used for all functions
on the rear light modules. For an ultra-
fast response and greater luminance.
In
short: for greater safet y. In an emer -
gency stop, the adaptive LED brake
lights on the Cayenne models pulsate
to alert the traffic behind more quickly
to a critical situation. The high-level third
brake light is integrated into the roof
s p o i l e r.
