From urban jungle to the windy wilds.
The Cayenne is perfectly at home on any terrain.
Off-road capability.
Steep ascents leading to snow- covered
mountain lodges, boggy ground or
muddy, loose surfaces – all situations
that the Cayenne handles superbly with
intelligent all-wheel drive. The drive
systems featured on the Cayenne models
deliver exceptional torque. For plent y of
power on tap. On any terrain.
Operating concept.
With the help of Porsche Traction
Management (PTM), the Cayenne can
cope with even the most demanding
off-road scenarios. Simply move the
main off-road control on the centre

console forward or backward to select
one of up to three off-road modes
(depending on the model). Available
on the Cayenne, Cayenne Diesel,
Cayenne S, Cayenne GTS and Cayenne
Turbo, this
function readies the car for
off-road use or reverts the set ting to
normal road driving.
In Off-road Mode 1, for example, the
maps for all relevant systems, e.g. ABS,
are adapted to provide optimum traction.
In addition, High Level I is selected
on vehicles featuring air suspension
with PASM. If that ’s not enough, the air
suspension can be raised further to
High Level II to increase the approach/
departure angle and wading depth.
1)
Push the off-road control forward again
on the Cayenne, Cayenne S, Cayenne GTS
and Cayenne Turbo to activate Off-road
Mode 2 – for even greater traction on difficult terrain, the multi-plate clutch can
be fully locked.
The electronically variable rear diffe
r-
ential on the optional Porsche Torque
Vectoring Plus (PT V Plus, p. 56) is inte -
grated within the all-wheel drive system.
This automatically ensures the optimum
distribution of drive torque on particular -
ly uneven surfaces. If one of the rear
wheels begins to slip, the rear differential
varies the amount of torque transmit ted
through each drive shaft, thereby restor -
ing traction. In Off-road Mode 3, the rear
differential can be manually locked using
the main off-road control. Then both
rear wheels receive the same amount of
torque, regardless of surface conditions.
The optional PDCC (p. 55) enables greater wheel articulation in all three
modes, improving traction still further.
For effective prevention of damage to the
underside of the car, all Cayenne models
can be equipped with optional off-road
underbody protection comprising rock
rails with integrated skid plates, a
reinforced engine-bay guard, additional
protection for fuel tank and rear axle,
and a second towing lug.
1) The Cayenne GTS has a steel -spring spor ts suspension with a 24 mm reduction in ride height (20 mm reduction with optional air suspension). This will lead to restricted capabilit y when driving of f road.

Porsche Stability Management (PSM).
Porsche Stabilit y Management (PSM) is
an electronic control system that uses a
range of functions – including anti-lock
braking (ABS) – to help stabilise the
vehicle (and trailer, if fit ted) in hazardous
road scenarios. Throughout each journey,
sensors monitor the direction, speed,
yaw velocit y and lateral acceleration of
the car. Using this information, it is pos-
sible to calculate the actual direction of
travel at any given moment. If the car
begins to oversteer or understeer, PSM
applies selective braking on individual
wheels to restore stabilit y. If necessary,
PSM can also intervene in the engine
management system to temporarily
modify the amount of drive transmitted
to the wheels. PSM has three additional functions that
help reduce braking distances. If the
throt tle pedal is released suddenly, PSM
automatically readies the braking sys
-
tem. The pressure in the brake lines
is marginally increased, bringing each
of the pads into light contact with the
corresponding disc. If the driver goes on
to apply the brakes, the calipers respond
more quickly and the braking distance is
reduced.
In an emergency stop – i.e. when the
pressure on the brake pedal exceeds
a certain threshold – the brake assist
function uses the PSM hydraulics to
apply maximum braking force at all
four wheels.
Preparing for the road ahead.
With a little help from PSM.
For added safet y, the system also read -
ies the brakes whenever a decreasing
distance to the vehicle in front is detect -
ed. The optional adaptive cruise control
and PSM interact to prefill the brakes.
Even if adaptive cruise control is inactive,
the system registers the speed of the
vehicle in front and automatically readies
the braking system. In addition, the sys -
tem alerts the driver to the decreasing
distance by briefly tugging on the
brakes.
PSM also features a trailer stabilisation
function – for a significant contribution
to car and trailer safet y. Within the laws
of physics, it compensates for load
transfer caused by throt tle and brake inputs up to the maximum degree of
lateral acceleration. It also enhances the
car’s driving dynamics and directional
stability when accelerating on inconsis
-
tent road surfaces.
Other features include a special control
strategy in the ABS for braking on loose
surfaces. By briefly locking the wheels,
a wedge is formed ahead of each t yre
which provides additional purchase to
help slow the car, e.g. on gravel or snow.
For a more involving driving experience,
PSM can also be disabled, but remains
active in the background.
Standard on all Cayenne models.

Exhaust emissions.
The Cayenne models are all equipped
with the latest emissions technology. As
a result, they comply with the European
exhaust emissions standard, EU 5.
Whatever the class, every Porsche
combines high performance with com -
paratively moderate emissions. On the
Cayenne models, this is achieved using
advanced drive concepts – from petrol
and diesel engines to our parallel full
hybrid drive. This is further aided by the
rapid warm-up cycle of the catalytic
converters. The optimum operating tem -
perature is reached earlier so emissions
are reduced sooner when starting from
cold. On the petrol- engined and hybrid models,
another important feature is the use of
t win oxygen-sensor circuits. Each bank of
cylinders has a separate control system
which the engine management system
uses to establish the optimum amount of
fuel – for effective emissions control.
The exhaust-gas recirculation on the
Cayenne Diesel routes part of the exhaust
gas back into the combustion process,
resulting in lower peak com bustion tem-
perature and therefore lower nitrogen
oxide emissions. An oxidation catalyst
also forms an integral part of the process
along with a diesel particulate filter.
Porsche engines.
Performing for today – and the future.
Fuel and fuel economy.
Increasing performance while enhancing
fuel economy. The Cayenne comes in a
choice of three different drive systems,
each featuring state-of-the-art technol -
ogy for high efficiency and relatively low
fuel consumption. The petrol-engined
models already operate on fuels with

an ethanol content of up to 10 %. This
further improves the carbon dioxide
balance since the plants grown for the
production of biofuels absorb carbon
dioxide from the atmosphere. As you
can see, for the benefit of the environ
-
ment, we are continually working on
making our cars more efficient – as

well as compatible with alternative
fuels. While ensuring that they remain
one thing: a thoroughbred Porsche.
Fuel system.
We have also applied the highest stand -
ards to our petrol- engined models in
order to protect the environment from
fuel evaporation. The non-return fuel
supply system provides a considerable
reduction in vapour emissions. The lines
carrying vapour are made from multi-
layer plastics. A large active-carbon
filter and multi-layer plastic fuel tank help
reduce evaporation still further.

2 emissions and efficiency class data, please refer to pages

Noise.
As paradoxical as it may seem, the
distinctive Porsche sound is also created
by what you don’t hear – the absence of
unwanted noise. Naturally, its main origin
is deep within the engine. But that ’s
not all. Our holistic approach to vehicle
design also extends to the acoustics.
Which is why we’ve optimised them for
the entire car.
To minimise ‘play’ between components,
we’ve used stronger, lighter and more
temperature-resistant materials. This
reduces mechanical noise. Large-volume
silencers and air intake manifolds also
help to eliminate noise – throughout the
life of the car.
Tyre noise has been drastically reduced
in collaboration with our official t yre
partners. Wind noise levels have also
been lowered thanks to aerodynamic
refinements. All that remains is a sound that is pure
Porsche.
Servicing.
With lengthy service intervals and long-
life components, vehicle maintenance is
kept to a minimum. In the case of the oil
filter, for example, all that ’s replaced is
an easily recyclable paper element. The
oil filter casing remains on the car.
All moving parts inside the engine are
fully self-adjusting. The valve clearances,
for instance, feature automatic hydraulic
control.
Thanks to single-spark coils on each of
the cylinders, the entire ignition system
on the petrol-engined models, with

the exception of the spark plugs, is
maintenance-free.
These modest service requirements
mean less waste disposal and fewer demands on natural resources. They

also lower the cost of ownership while
keeping your car on the road.
Service intervals for the Cayenne models
are dependent on a range of factors,
including local fuel quality. For full details
of service intervals in your country, please
consult the relevant price list or contact
your Porsche Centre.
Materials and recycling.
Owning a Porsche should be a lasting
pleasure with minimal impact on the
environment. This Porsche principle
can be summed up in one word: sustain -
abilit y. The light weight exhaust on the
Cayenne models, for example, is con -
structed from long-life stainless steel.
Every Porsche model is entirely free of
CFCs and components manufactured
using CFCs. All legal requirements in
respect of recoverability are fulfilled.
Materials are clearly labelled for
subsequent identification and sorting

to facilitate efficient recycling.
While more than 95 % of the car can be
recycled using current technologies, the
chances are your Cayenne may never
need
recycling at all. After all, t wo thirds
of all the cars we have ever made are
still on the road today.
