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.

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 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.

Six-speed manual gearbox.
The six-speed manual gearbox on the
Cayenne has been specifically adapted
for the demands of high-performance
use. The gear lever throw is short and
precise, and each of the six ratios has
been selected for optimum progression
through the gears. As the centre console
rises to meet the dashboard, the gear
lever is close to hand – for an even more
engaging drive.
The standard upshift display in the
instrument cluster helps to reduce fuel
consumption further still. Eight-speed Tiptronic S is also available
as an option on the Cayenne in conjunc
-
tion with the auto start/stop function.
Standard on the Cayenne.
Eight-speed Tiptronic S.
The outstanding feature of the eight-
speed Tiptronic S is a particularly wide
ratio spread. 1st gear is designed for
optimum acceleration when pulling away
and greater performance when tackling
ascents and towing loads in off-road
terrain. Top speed is reached in 6th gear
(in 7th gear on the Cayenne Diesel). The
remaining upper gears are used to lower
the revs at high speed, thereby enhanc -
ing fuel economy and occupant comfort. On the motorway in particular, driving
at low revs will significantly reduce the
noise level inside the vehicle.
In automatic mode, the driver can influ -
ence gearshifts on the Tiptronic S using
the throt tle and brakes alone. Tiptronic S
automatically adapts the gearshift points
for performance driving – equally, if a
more defensive driving st yle is detected,
the system selects a gearshift point that
offers maximum fuel economy. Under
heav y braking, Tiptronic S shifts down to
maximise engine braking.
An electric pump is used to maintain the
required pressure of the transmission fluid,
e.g. to transmit high levels of torque
at
lower engine speeds. The standard sports steering wheel in
conjunction with Tiptronic S has two
ergonomic switches for manual gear
changes. One press forward with the
thumb and Tiptronic S shifts up. One
pull backwards with the index finger and
Tiptronic S shifts down. Either the right
or left-hand switch can be used. The
result: an even more dynamic response
when changing gear.
Standard on the Cayenne Diesel,
Cayenne S, Cayenne S Hybrid,
Cayenne GTS and Cayenne Turbo.
Optional for the Cayenne.

The concept behind every car we build
is based around the pursuit of perform -
ance. This has been the case since
1948. Another of our traditional core
values is efficiency. At Porsche, we are
continually striving to find a successful
balance between the two.
This is achieved using advanced engine
concepts featuring technologies such
as DFI (p. 40), VarioCam Plus (p. 39),
the auto start /stop function (p. 38),
the parallel full hybrid drive (p. 28) and
consistent lightweight construction. Weight reduction is a key aspect of our
design philosophy derived from our rich
racing heritage. Part of our R&D Centre,
the Motorsport Department is located in
Weissach where it shares premises with
the Automotive Industry Exhaust Emission
Centre (ADA). Just a
coincidence? We call
it symbiosis.
In practice: the Cayenne is up to 185 kg
lighter, depending on the model.
1) We
have achieved this through the use of
new, innovative weight-saving materials,
the development of new production technologies and functionalities, and a
series of concept modifications. This
has enabled us to halve the weight of
the tailgate, for example. Innovative
materials are also a feature of the axle
construction, with steel being replaced
where possible by lightweight alterna -
tives such as aluminium and plastic.
The benefits for the driver: greater agilit y
and driving dynamics – with lower fuel
consumption. Efficiency at its best.
Great achievements are something to be proud of.
Even more so if they benefit the world around you.
