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.
