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.
