tow PORSCHE CAYNNE 2008 1.G Information Manual

you’ll appreciate even more the
powerful capability of the Cayenne
range of engines.
For the largest of loads, you can
choose from two towing options:
an electrically retractable towbarsystem or a manually detachable
towbar. With the electric system,
the ball neck can be retracted
beneath the rear apron – all at
the push of a button. Both options
are available for all Cayenne
models, have a maximum braked
trailer load of 3,500 kg* (with a
maximum noseweight of 140 kg)
and come with a 13-pole socket.
All Cayenne models have a towbar
preparation as standard.
This exceptional capability is
enough for virtually every type
of load. Even another Porsche.
Towbar systems.
Whatever your passion, all four
Cayenne models offer a wealth
of possibilities that go beyond
the pleasure of driving. When fully
laden or with a heavy trailer load,
Roof transport systems.
Even when the luggage compartment
is completely full, the Cayenne has
space for more. Using the standard
roof rails, the car can be equipped
with an optional roof transport
system. It is compatible with all the
usual load-carrying attachments
available from Porsche Tequipment,
e.g., ski/snowboard carriers and
roof boxes. All load-bearing parts
are made from robust aluminium
and designed for a maximum loadof 100 kg. The optional roof
rails
can also be combined with
a set of transverse roof bars
from Porsche Tequipment, offering
a maximum load of 75 kg.

The Cayenne is built to carry many things.
Even another Porsche.

As you approach the final corner,
brake and turn in, riding the kerbs
on the apex. Apply the throttle onto
the start/finish straight and power
towards the line. While nothing
describes the feeling of a fastest
lap, there are some 30 cameras
dotted around the track, recording
every move you make. The pictures
are beamed live to a bank of
32 monitors and two large-screen
displays in the nearby track
control centre.
The track layout includes detailed
reproductions of some of the
most famous racing corners in
the world. The total lap distance
is precisely 3,707.109 metres –
assuming you found the racing
line. Considering the track meas-
ures 12 metres across, there’splenty of margin for error. The
track is FIA-certified for competi-
tion use, which means optimum
safety is assured. A homage to
the scenes of our most famous
victories, it is the ideal environ-
ment in which to test the racing
character of your Porsche.
3,707.109 metres.
On the optimum racing line.
Test track.
Going from one extreme to the
other, you can test the Cayenne
on our extensive off-road circuit.
A former military training ground,
some of the bunkers are still
standing – indeed some of them
will be standing in your way. Of
the 100 hectares that make up
the site, only a 6-km (3.7-mile)
strip is used for the off-road
course. The rest has been given
over for several years now as
unspoilt habitat for auerochs cattle
and wild horses.
As you will discover, that 6-km
strip contains a great many
challenges for you and the
Cayenne. Among the 18 off-road
trials are a log course, ramp
crossing and bunker crossing, as
well as a 60 % steep ascent and
35° traversing section. Other
obstacles include a wading trough,
corduroy road, pothole section,
sand track, gravel track and a
hilly section with pontoon bridge.
Here, you will learn all about the
power of the Cayenne and how to
control it all with precision.
18 of the toughest off-road trials.
For one of the toughest off-road cars.
Off-road circuit.
