A drive system that sets one thing racing above all else:
your heart.
Transmission.
8-speed Tiptronic S.
Thanks to a particularly wide ratio spread,
the 8-speed Tiptronic S lowers fuel
consumption – and increases comfort

and dynamic agility. The low engine
speeds in the higher gears reduce the
noise level inside the vehicle. The 8-speed
Tiptronic S shifts gear automatically and
adapts to your individual driving st yle.

New features include the extended auto
start/stop function. This cuts the engine
not only when the vehicle stops, but also
if you are approaching traffic lights, for
example.
Coasting.
Other energy-saving technologies include
the ability to coast along in certain
situations, e.g. when you take your foot
off the accelerator pedal to reduce your
speed slowly. The engine is decoupled
from the transmission and slowed to idle
speed to prevent deceleration caused by
engine braking. The Cayenne S E-Hybrid
goes one step further: it can switch the
combustion engine off completely while
driving.
Porsche Traction Management (PTM).
PTM comprises an active all-wheel drive
system with an electronically variable,
map-controlled multi-plate clutch,
automatic brake differential (ABD) and
anti-slip regulation (ASR).
The electronically controlled multi-plate
clutch helps to ensure optimum distribu -
tion of force between the permanently
driven rear axle and the front axle. The
driving conditions are continuously
monitored to enable the system to
respond to a variety of situations. During
cornering, the required level of engine
torque is distributed to the front wheels to
provide excellent lateral stability. The
result: perfect distribution of drive torque
at all times.

PTM on the Cayenne Diesel and Cayenne S
E-Hybrid features a permanent all-wheel
drive system with self-locking centre

differential. This provides a standard
torque split of 60 % to the rear and 40 %

to the front. If one of the wheels is about
to lose grip, the self-locking centre

differential transmits the torque to the
axle offering the highest level of traction.
Variable distribution of engine torque to
the rear wheels also enhances steering
precision and driving dynamics.

A strong character is not so easily swayed.
Chassis systems.
Steel-spring suspension.1)
The steel-spring suspension meets
high-level requirements in terms of
performance, driving pleasure and

off-road capability. Consistent lightweight
construction ensures improved driving
dynamics, greater fuel economy
and enhanced comfort. In addition, the
suspension setup has been further
optimised to deliver a clear result: greater
comfort and sports performance.
Typically Porsche.
Air suspension with Porsche Active
Suspension Management (PASM).
2)
A constant vehicle position thanks to air
suspension including self-levelling and ride-height
control with PASM. The ground
clearance can be adjusted using the
rocker switch on the centre console. And
to make it easier to load the car, you can
also select Loading Level using a button
in the luggage compartment.

PASM is an electronic damping control
system that actively and continuously
adjusts the damping force on each wheel,
based on road conditions and driving
style. By means of a button on the centre
console, you can select one of three
modes: Comfort, SPORT or SPORT PLUS.
Sensors record the body movements that
accompany powerful acceleration, braking
and rapid cornering on uneven road surfaces.
The control unit evaluates the
driving conditions and modifies the
damping force on each wheel in accord -
ance with the selected mode. The result
is threefold: increased driving stability,
more comfort and improved performance.


Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control
(PDCC).
PDCC is an active anti-roll system that
anticipates and reduces lateral body
movement when cornering. In addition, it
minimises lateral sway of the vehicle on
rippled road surfaces.

Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus
(PTV Plus).
PT V Plus is a system for enhancing
driving dynamics and stability. Operating
in conjunction with an electronically
controlled rear differential lock, it works
by varying the torque distribution to the
rear wheels. Depending on the steering
angle and steering speed, accelerator
pedal position, yaw rate and vehicle
speed, PT V Plus optimises steering
response and precision by selectively
applying brake pressure to the left or
right rear wheel.

There’s no need to rein in your enthusiasm.
Even when you go off road.
Off-road capability and sports performance.
Off-road capability.
Using the main off-road control on the
centre console, you can select one of up
to three modes (depending on the model)
for improving the off-road capability or
revert the setting to normal road driving.
In Off-road Mode 1, the maps for all
relevant systems, e.g. ABS, are adapted
to provide optimum traction. In addition,
High Level 1 is selected on vehicles
featuring air suspension with PASM. The
air suspension can also be raised further
to High Level II to increase the approach/
departure angle and wading depth. Off-road
Mode 2 ensures even greater
traction on difficult terrain1) by fully
locking the multi-plate clutch. The
electronically controlled variable rear
differential on the optional Porsche
Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus)
1) is
integrated within the all-wheel drive
system and can be fully locked in
Off-road Mode 3.
Porsche Stability Management (PSM).
PSM helps to stabilise the vehicle in
hazardous road scenarios. The electronic
control system uses sensors to continu -
ously monitor the direction, speed, yaw
velocity and lateral acceleration of the car. It
also enhances traction when accelerating
on inconsistent road surfaces. In SPORT
PLUS mode, as featured in the Sport
Chrono Package, PSM is initiated later –
affording a greater sense of freedom to
the more dynamic driver.
Sport Chrono Package.
The Sport Chrono Package includes an
analogue and digital timer, the SPORT
PLUS button, the longitudinal and lateral
acceleration display in the instrument
cluster and a performance display in
Porsche Communication Management
(PCM). For an even sportier setup.
The SPORT PLUS button on the centre
console is used to activate SPORT PLUS
mode. The engine becomes even more
responsive. The damping is harder and the
steering more direct. The Performance
Start function ensures optimum acceler -
ation when pulling away. The timer
mounted on the dashboard displays the
recorded driving time or can be used as a
conventional clock. PSM also features a
special performance display to view, store
and evaluate lap times or other driving
times.

Driving with foresight.
In the truest sense of the word.
Lights and visibility.
LED main headlights with
Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS).
Excellent illumination of the road thanks
to the optimum balance between short
and long-distance lighting with side
illumination. Due to the similarity in
colour with daylight and the low light
scatter of the LED main headlights with
PDLS, the driver’s eyes tire less quickly
than with other systems.
Bi-Xenon main headlights with

Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS).
The Bi-Xenon main headlights feature
halogen auxiliary headlights and
automatic dynamic range control: for
more uniform illumination of the road in
both low and high-beam mode.

Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS).
PDLS adjusts the range of the dipped
beam based on driving speed. The
dynamic cornering light function swivels
the main headlights towards the inside
of a bend based on the current steering
angle and road speed. The static
cornering lights activate the auxiliary
headlights in order to illuminate more
of the road in tight bends and turns.

Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus
(PDLS+
).
PDLS+ offers t wo additional functions:
High Beam Assistant is activated at
speeds in excess of approx. 40 mph. It
detects vehicles driving in front as well as
oncoming traffic. The intensit y and
range of the light cone can therefore be
adapted to the prevailing situation. As
you approach a junction, Intersection
Assistant activates the left and right
cornering lights, making the beam of
light broader and shorter. This improves
illumination of the area directly
surrounding the vehicle.
Daytime running lights.
The revised daytime running lights with
four LED spotlights have been integrated
into the standard Bi-Xenon main
headlights
1) and the optional LED main
headlights
2). These enhance safety in the
daytime as they make you more visible to
other road users.
Taillights.
LED technology is used for all functions
on the newly designed rear light modules.
For an ultrafast response and greater
luminance. In short: for greater safet y. In
an emergency stop, the four-point LED
brake lights pulsate to alert the traffic
behind more quickly to a critical situation.
The high-level third brake light is
integrated into the roof spoiler.

Speed is a passion of ours.
Even when it comes to deceleration.
Braking systems.
The braking systems on the Cayenne
models offer impressive performance,
even when fully laden and with a braked
trailer load of up to 3,500 kg.
Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake
(PCCB).
Derived from the world of motorsport to
make everyday driving even safer: the
Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake
(PCCB) is proven on the racetrack and
therefore an excellent example of the Porsche
philosophy. The key advantage
of PCCB is a total weight saving of
approximately 50 % compared with
equivalent cast-iron discs. As well as
enhancing performance and fuel
economy, the unsprung and rotating
masses are lightened. The results: bet ter
handling and road-holding plus greater
ride comfort.

For us, sports performance is not just about speed.
It’s also about sustainability.
Environment.
Environmental protection.
With the plug-in hybrid technology of
the new Cayenne S E-Hybrid, we are
con tinuing to forge ahead into the future.
Ecological responsibility is nothing new
for Porsche, as can be seen from our
efficient drive systems, light weight
construction, optimised aerodynamics
and low rolling resistance. We have
demonstrated that even high-performance
sports cars can achieve comparatively
moderate exhaust emission values. This is
ensured by our approach to environmental
management in Weissach: here, all
technological developments are carried out
with environmental protection in mind.
This is demonstrated by the fact that
around 70 % of all Porsche cars ever built
are still on the road.
Lightweight construction and recycling.
Intelligent lightweight construction has
been integral to the Porsche identit y
since the very beginning. It is economical
thanks to the high proportion of alumin -
ium, plastics and high-strength sheet
steel used. This is substantially more
stable and lighter than conventional steel.
It is also ecological because all materials
utilised are meticulously selected. We use only
innovative and environmentally
friendly components. This also includes
a reduction in the variety of plastics.
Recycled plastics are used where they
meet our exacting technical
requirements. As a result, the Cayenne
models are around 95 % recyclable today.
