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.

Drive systems and chassis
How could we make the Cayenne more
powerful and yet, at the same time,
more efficient? Where should we start?
It ’s obvious, really. 1948 – where else?
That’s when the values that we hold
so dearly today – and will continue to
do so in the future – were established.
After all, is there any thing wrong with
having progressive concepts, social
responsibility and a clear direction?

Hybrid, diesel, petrol. Many different options.
One outcome: Porsche.
Drive systems.
The drive system of the
Cayenne S Hybrid.
Hybrid drives are suitable for use in a
wide range of scenarios. On road, off
road or on the track – to us, it ’s about
using technology in the most intelligent
way. This enables us to introduce hybrid
technology into a variet y of different
vehicle concepts.
The clearest proof of this is the 918 Spyder
– a concept study for the super sports car
of the future. The electric machines in its
plug-in hybrid system work in conjunction
with the high rpm
engine to deliver out-
standing performance with incredibly low
fuel consumption.
Another example of a track- derived racing
vehicle is the 911 GT3 R Hybrid. With
its front-wheel hybrid drive and fly wheel storage system, it is an extremely
modern
interpretation of a thoroughbred
racecar with great potential for the
future.
With the Cayenne S Hybrid, our primary
focus was on meeting customer require -
ments in terms of athleticism, high effi -
ciency and greater everyday practicality.
The result: the parallel full hybrid.
The Cayenne S Hybrid has a 3.0 -litre V6
supercharged engine. The charging
effect of the compressor ensures high
levels of torque, even at low engine
speeds. The unit generates an output of
245 kW (333 hp). 440 Nm of torque is
available bet ween 3,000 and 5,250 rpm,
enabling a low-rev, economical driving
style while offering exceptional reserves
of power. At 288 volts, the electric machine has
a maximum output of 34 kW (47 hp).
The benefits of the synchronous motor
with inner rotor design are extremely
compact dimensions and high levels of
efficiency. It also acts as a starter motor
and alternator.
Working in tandem, both units provide
a total output of 279 kW
(380 hp) and
maximum torque of 580 Nm,
propelling
the car from 0 to 100 km/ h in just
6.5 seconds. These are the levels of
acceleration you would usually expect
from an eight- cylinder unit, but with
a combined fuel consumption of
8.2 l/100 km in the EU cycle.
1)
On the parallel full hybrid system, the
electric machine is integrated directly
into the drivetrain. The hybrid module
is situated bet ween the transmission
and the combustion engine. The engine
is engaged and disengaged using a
specially designed decoupler.
The electronic engine management
system receives all information on the
driving and energy status and controls
both drive systems to ensure optimum
performance in any driving scenario.
It shuts off the combustion engine and
switches it back on. Thanks to the ultra-
fast decoupler and instantaneous engine
start-up, all of this goes unnoticed by
the driver. Under moderate acceleration,
the electric machine can power the vehicle independently using electricity
alone. For example, for driving quietly
through residential areas. In addition,
it can be used to boost performance –
for even faster acceleration.
The parallel full hybrid concept also
comes into its own during performance
driving. When the Cayenne S Hybrid is
Parallel full hybrid
driven at high speeds and on overrun,
the combustion engine is automatically
disengaged from the drivetrain and shut
off: the car continues to ‘coast’ along.
Engine drag and the associated losses
are eliminated and efficiency is increased
at speeds of up to 156 km/ h.

E-power button.
The ‘e-power’ but ton can be used to
expand the range in which the vehicle
can be run solely on electric power, when
heading out of a residential area, for
instance. The throt tle map is adapted so
that the combustion engine is engaged
later than in ‘Normal’ mode depending
on performance requirements. This is
activated via a but ton on the centre
console.
B at ter y.
The hybrid system features a high-
voltage nickel metal hydride (NiMH) bat-
tery consisting of 240 cells. It provides
the electric machine with the energy required for the vehicle to drive short
distances solely on electric power.
The compact bat tery is located under the
loadspace floor in the luggage compart -
ment. Weighing approximately 80 kg,
its dimensions are 426 mm x 925 mm x
286 mm.
The bat tery is designed to last without
the need for any maintenance throughout
its entire life. As the electric machine
also functions as a generator, it can
charge the bat tery under certain condi -
tions when the combustion engine is in
part-throt tle mode and through energy
recovery during braking. A special bat tery management and cooling system main
-
tains a constant temperature and
protects the battery from overheating.
It also monitors the charge/discharge
processes. As a result, the life of the
bat tery is optimised and its suitabilit y
for everyday use ensured, while offering
a high capacit y: 1.7 kWh.
Systems that are usually dependent on
the output provided by the combustion
engine, such as climate control, power
steering and brake assist, run solely
on electricit y on the Cayenne S Hybrid.
As they do not rely on output from the
engine, these functions remain active
when the car is running in electric mode or when it is ‘coasting’ or gliding along
with the engine turned off.
In summary: despite its six- cylinder
powerplant, the Cayenne S Hybrid offers
performance levels that are comparable
with an eight-cylinder unit – but with
significantly lower fuel consumption. Also
when it comes to hybrid drives, we’ve
taken a completely new path. Hardly
surprising really, with a technology this
convincing.

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.
