Exceptional power requires accurate direction.

Wheels.
The electrically adjustable steer-
ing column has a driver-selectable
‘Easy Entry’ function, which raises
the steering wheel towards the
dashboard whenever you enter
or leave the car. The comfort and
sports seat options (standard on
Cayenne GTS and Cayenne Turbo)
have a comfort memory package
that stores your preferred
wheel position as well as seat
and exterior mirror settings.
The steering column consists of
multiple collapsing sections linked
by three universal joints. A special
deformation element offering
70 mm of travel provides a high
level of safety in the event of front
impact.
Servotronic.
Servotronic is a speed-sensitive
power steering system available
as an option on all Cayenne
models.
At higher speeds, the steering
becomes firmer, inputs are more
precise and driver comfort is
greatly enhanced.
At lower speeds, it enables easy
manoeuvrability and parking. For optimum manoeuvrability, on
and off road, all Cayenne models
have variable-ratio steering
and special valve settings on
the power-steering system. Lock-
to-lock travel is a modest
2.65 turns, while the turning
circle is just 11.7 metres.
The steering wheel can be adjusted
by 50 mm for reach and 40 mm
for height. Both adjustment options
are electrically assisted on
the Cayenne GTS and Cayenne
Turbo. Electric adjustment is also
available as an option on the
Cayenne and Cayenne S as part
of the optional comfort or sports
seat package (each with comfort
memory package). The optional
padded steering wheel (standard
on Cayenne GTS) brings added
sporting style to each model.

Five discrete audio channels (front
left, front right, centre, surround
left and surround right) plus a low-
frequency effects channel provide
naturalistic sound with precise spatial
location of voices, instruments,
sound effects, etc., at the front
and rear of the car. A 360-degree
soundstage, its realistic 3D audio is comparable with a concert hall
or cinema.
Naturally, you can also play
conventional CDs, either in stereo
mode or as surround sound
generated by the patented BOSE®
Centerpoint®technology. The
new Centerpoint
®II algorithm
takes the standard stereo signal
and generates a more precise and
realistic surround sound output.
BOSE

channel to a combination of
speakers to achieve a more

seat positions.
Of course, there’s more to the
BOSE®Surround Sound System

a 410-Watt 10-channel digital
amplifier to produce a powerful
sound experience.
The system supports digital 5.1
surround sound on audio and video

The optional BOSE®Surround Sound
System (standard in the Cayenne
Turbo) was specially developed

engineered for the specific interior

The dynamic loudness function
automatically enhances the lower

in order to compensate for the
reduced sensitivity of the human

AudioPilot

technology uses a microphone in
the cockpit to monitor ambient
sound. The system is then able
to provide real-time adjustment
of all audio output for a more
consistent sound experience.

The Cayenne models use power
and performance for more than
just driving pleasure. All four cars
have a large and variable rear
luggage compartment with power
closing tailgate as standard.
An automatic tailgate is available
as an option. The luggage
compartment has a total volume
of 540 litres (VDA), i.e., more than
enough space for up to four large
suitcases. The loadspace floor is
completely flat and the tailgate
sill is low. When the rear seats
are folded flat on vehicles with
sports seats (featuring comfort
memory package), the larger side
bolsters create a slope of approx.
15º relative to the loadspace floor.
Even when the car is fully laden
(see page 188), the self-levelling
air suspension (standard on
Cayenne Turbo; optional on other
models) maintains a constant
ground clearance at front and
rear.
The air suspension package
includes ride-height adjustment,
enabling the car to be lowered
by approximately 54 mm* below
the normal ride level for easier
loading of heavy items. When
moving off, the suspension
automatically reverts to the
standard ride-height setting
(Normal Level).
When the rear backrest is folded
forward, the loadspace expands
to as much as 1,770 litres**
(VDA). Items can be stored out
of view and protected from the
sun using a retractable cover in
a detachable storage cassette.
Two additional storage spaces
(one on vehicles with four-zone
air conditioning) are discreetly
concealed behind the side trim
panels in the luggage compart-
ment (volume may vary depending
on optional equipment).
Even when loaded to the
maximum weight, each Cayenne
model remains agile, responsive
and easy to control.
Transport
