ESP PORSCHE CAYNNE DIESEL 2012 2.G Information Manual

1Chassis.
If you think about it, there’s really
only one way to achieve success: by
chan
nelling your energy in the right
direction. The impressive power of the
new Cayenne S Diesel is transmit ted
to
the road by the standard eight­speed
Tiptronic S. The standard sports steering
wheel has t wo ergonomic switches for
manual gear changes. The multifunction
steering wheel with switches is available
as an option, SportDesign steering wheel
features gearshift paddles.
In conjunction with Porsche Traction
Management (PTM) active all­wheel drive, the chassis offers high levels of traction
and impressive driving dynamics. The
system continuously monitors the status
of the car to ensure the optimum torque
split in every driving scenario – for
dynamic acceleration on long straights,
through tight corners or on surfaces
with different friction coefficients.
Available as an option, Porsche Active
Suspension Management (PASM) is an
electronic damping control system. It
provides continuous adjustment of the
damping forces on each wheel depending
on the current road conditions and driving

st yle. There is a choice of three setup
modes: ‘Comfort’, ‘Normal’ and ‘Sport’.
PASM automatically adapts to the
prevailing driving conditions, enabling
greater car control and improved
comfort and safet y.
Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus
(PT V
Plus), also optional, is a system
that enhances the driving dynamics
even further. It offers variable distribu­
tion of engine torque to the rear wheels
and electronically controlled rear
differential. PT V Plus optimises steering
response and precision by applying brake
pressure to the left or right rear wheel,
as required.
No matter what your aspirations,
it pays to be grounded.

Safety.
The more time you give yourself, the
more assured your response will be –
especially in difficult conditions.
The brakes on the Cayenne S Diesel are
designed for high performance. The
system features six­piston monobloc
aluminium fixed calipers at the front and
four­piston equivalents at the rear. It has
internally vented discs all round, ensuring
bet ter cooling and consistent operation
during heav y use. The brake discs have
a diameter of 360 mm at the front and 330 mm at the rear. As on the Cayenne S,
the calipers are finished in silver. Brake
performance is further enhanced by the
optional Porsche Ceramic Composite
Brake (PCCB).
Providing a high level of protection, full­size
airbags for driver and front passenger are
fit ted as standard. These are augmented
by Porsche Side Impact Protection (POSIP).
This comprises a side airbag in each front
seat, curtain­t ype airbags on each side of
the roof offering optimum head protection
for both rows of seats, and side impact
protection elements in each door.
LED day time running lights are fit ted
as standard – for added safet y. LED
technology is also used for all functions
on the rear light modules. For an ultra­
fast response and greater luminance.
Optional: the Bi­Xenon main headlights
with Porsche Dynamic Light System
(PDLS) including dynamic cornering light
function.

The optional Porsche Dynamic Light
System Plus (PDLS Plus) offers t wo add­
itional functions: automatic High Beam
Assistant uses a camera integrated into

the interior mirror to record light sources
from vehicles in front and oncoming
traffic. It then automatically switches
the headlights bet ween high beam and
dipped beam at speeds in excess of
65 km/ h (40 mph). As you approach
a crossing, Intersection Assistant
improves illumination of the area directly
surrounding the vehicle. In addition, the
static cornering lights are activated if
intersections or junctions are identified
via the PCM’s navigation data.
Whether you are travelling on or off road,
there’s one thing we never take for
granted: your safety.
Rest assured. We’ve prepared
for every eventuality.

Exterior.
Although extremely efficient, the Cayenne S
Diesel is also a supreme athlete. We
feel
this should be clearly expressed in the
car’s exterior.
The contours of the front section draw
the eye, reflecting the car’s excellent
dynamics at first glance. The elongated
bonnet is clearly reminiscent of Porsche
racecars from the 1960s while its
power­dome underlines the strengh
and resolution within.
As you’d expect of a thoroughbred
athlete, the sharper profile exudes eager­
ness and determination. This is further
emphasised by the dynamic rear roof
pillars and flowing coupé­like silhouette.
The rear wheel arches echo the lines
of the muscular front section, while the
contoured roof spoiler pays homage to
the Carrera GT. Further proof of how
harmoniously our performance concept
has been integrated into our design phil­
osophy – across the entire model range. Another sport y reference: the black slats
in the front apron make the air intakes
appear larger and the car wider.
As
well as accentuating the sports­orient
ed
design, these help to ensure the optimum
operating temperature for the V8 turbo ­
diesel engine. Of course, the Cayenne S
Diesel is also recognisable by its distinct­
ive engine sound.
Fit ted as standard, the 18­inch Cayenne S III
wheels offer exceptional ride
comfort,

especially on longer journeys. A range of
other wheels is also available in various
sizes (up to 21 inches in diameter).
The ‘diesel’ designation on each front
wing and the ‘Cayenne S’ logo on the
tailgate allude to the fact that this is the
most powerful V8 turbo ­diesel in its
class.
The Porsche ‘S’. A mark to which the
Cayenne S Diesel holds true.

recorded on individual vehicles and do not constitute par t of the of fer. This data is provided solely for the
purposes of comparison bet ween the respective models. Fuel consumption was recorded on vehicles with
standard specification. Optional equipment may affect fuel consumption and vehicle performance. Fuel consumption
and CO2 emissions are not only determined by a vehicle’s fuel ef ficiency, but also by the driving st yle and other factors irrespective of vehicle specification. All current petrol engines from Porsche are compatible with a fuel ethanol content of up to 10 %.
