Porsche Cayenne Turbo S User manual

The new Cayenne Turbo S
Higher authority

We all make demands, on others and
ourselves.
We also make demands in terms of
performance, design and exclusivity.
Sometimes they are especially
sophisticated. Like yours.
It was clear to us, therefore, that we
needed to raise the bar even higher.
To increase performance and enhance
the emotional experience.
The goal: to surpass previous levels
of driving performance – and to build
the most impressive SUV ever to bear
the Porsche Crest. A higher authority.

Your Cayenne Turbo S 43
Technical data 44

Having reached the top
is no reason to stand still.
The new Cayenne Turbo S.
We’ve done it all. We’ve done enough.
Time to shift down a gear. No engineer
at Porsche has ever had these thoughts
since 1948 – and they never will. That’s
a promise. After all, we know how great
your desire for performance is.
‘Dr. Ing.’ – the abbreviation of our found-
er’s engineering title – is not just part
of our company name. It also stands for
the engineering artistry that is at the
core of everything we do. That’s why we
are committed to consistently pushing
the limits of what’s technically feasible,
sometimes quite emphatically.
We not only put the performance values
of the most powerful Cayenne model to
date under scrutiny, but also its emotion-
al appeal – as well as aspects such
as design, everyday practicality and a
variety of equipment and features.
The stated objective of our engineers:
noticeably more of everything, including
exclusivity.
The figures speak for themselves:
405 kW (550 hp) and 750 Nm of torque.
That’s 37 kW (50 hp) and 50 Nm more
than the Cayenne Turbo. Top speed is
283 km/h.
Additional technologies fitted as standard
such as the Porsche Dynamic Chassis
Control (PDCC) active anti-roll system
or Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV
Plus) also ensure that the car’s driving
dynamics are second to none.
However, it was about much more than
setting a new benchmark in the SUV
market. It was about creating a higher
authority.
This supremacy is based on Intelligent
Performance: the concept of offering
increased power and efficiency with
comparatively low fuel consumption.
‘Turbo S’ – a designation that represents
the highest standards in technology
and emotional appeal, along with a good
dose of luxury. The same philosophy
applies to the equipment and design,
which are sophisticated, elegant and
modern. In a word: exclusive. This is
accentuated by a leather interior featur-
ing new exclusive two-tone combinations
and the use of materials such as carbon.
Once again, we’ve produced a sports
car that is fascinating through and
through. A car that knows no bounds –
as you are about to discover.

Cayenne Turbo S

Breathtaking agility,
clearly expressed.
Design.
Exterior.
With phenomenal performance comes a
purposeful stance.
The central air intake is generously
proportioned, while the ‘power-domed’
engine lid is a clear reference to the
sheer power and resolution within – this
is particularly dominant on the Cayenne
Turbo S. As any good athlete knows, a
good intake of air is essential.
The contours of the front section draw
the eye, reflecting the car’s excellent
dynamics at first glance. The coupé-like
silhouette is typical of a sports car – as
are the muscular rear wheel arches. The
chrome-plated ‘Cayenne turbo S’ logo on
the tailgate further underlines the car’s
incredible performance potential.
Whether your style is extravagant or
purist, there’s a wide range of colours to
choose from. The wheel arch extensions
and roof spoiler separation edge are also
painted in exterior colour as standard.
For a touch of purist elegance, several
components feature a high-gloss black
finish: the entire air intake grille including
slats as well as the exterior mirror lower
trim and mirror base.
Also finished in high-gloss black, the
21-inch 911 Turbo II wheels with full-
colour Porsche Crest are exclusively fit-
ted as standard on the Cayenne Turbo S.
For those with discerning requirements
when it comes to visual appeal and
performance.
Complete with twin dual-tube tailpipes
in aluminium with a high-gloss finish, the
sports exhaust system strikes the final
chord in the car’s extraordinary exterior
design. But it certainly does not end
there.

Interior.
Status is not only reflected on the out-
side: the interior of the new Cayenne
Turbo S also boasts a wealth of high-
quality details.
For a sporty, yet elegant ambience, the
standard leather interior comes in a
choice of two new two-tone combin-
ations: Black/Luxor Beige or Black/
Carrera Red. There are even more
elements in contrasting colour, especially
in the areas directly around the driver
and front passenger. Black floor mats
with decorative edging and ‘PORSCHE’
logo in contrasting colour complete the
exclusive two-tone concept. As well as
a wide range of colours, there’s also a
choice of alternative or additional interior
packages – e.g. in natural leather or a
selection of fine woods – for even more
luxury appeal inside the cockpit.
The rooflining, sun visors, pillar trim and
a number of other elements are finished
in Alcantara. Used extensively in motor
racing, this material is extremely pleasing
to the touch. In conjunction with the
standard carbon interior package, the
decorative trim on the dashboard and
doors, front and rear, the decorative
plaque on the centre console and the
Tiptronic S gear selector are all finished
in carbon. The door-sill guards are in
stainless steel and feature the ‘turbo S’
model logo.
Sit back and relax – or push the limits?
With the Cayenne Turbo S, you can do
both. Adaptive sports seats with comfort
memory package combine exceptional
comfort with the ideal seating position
for performance driving. Thanks to
18-way electric adjustment, the seats
can be adapted to suit your individual
requirements. The head restraints on the
front seats and outer rear seats feature
an embossed Porsche Crest.
For an even more engaging drive, there’s
the rising centre console, SportDesign
steering wheel with gearshift paddles
and five round instruments with ‘turbo S’
logo on the centrally positioned rev
counter – a typical Porsche feature and
just one more vital component of this
harmonious overall concept.

Porsche performance – guaranteed to
take your breath away.
The new Cayenne Turbo S is powered by
a 4.8-litre twin-turbo V8 engine featuring
direct fuel injection (DFI), VarioCam Plus
and charge-air cooling. It generates
405 kW (550 hp) at 6,000 rpm. Maximum
torque of 750 Nm is available between
2,250 and 4,500 rpm. The sprint from
0 to 100 km/h takes just 4.5 seconds.
Maximum speed is an exhilarating
283 km/h.
This power is delivered to the road effi-
ciently by Porsche Traction Management
(PTM) permanent all-wheel drive. PTM
ensures the perfect distribution of drive
torque in every driving scenario, thereby
enhancing traction and agility.
Drive is transmitted to the road by the
standard eight-speed Tiptronic S. The
system adapts the gearshift points
to your individual driving style and the
prevailing road conditions. The standard
SportDesign steering wheel has two
gearshift paddles for sporty gear chan-
ges. One pull on the right and Tiptronic S
shifts up. One pull on the left and
Tiptronic S shifts down.
Despite the increase in output, fuel con-
sumption and CO2emissions are identical
to those on the Cayenne Turbo. This is
thanks to Intelligent Performance. Also
responsible for the high level of efficiency:
advanced technologies such as the auto
start/stop function, VarioCam Plus and
direct fuel injection (DFI). DFI injects fuel
directly into the combustion chamber with
millisecond precision, thereby increasing
the mixing of air and fuel, and enhancing
combustion. This is designed to improve
output, torque, fuel economy and
emissions within the vehicle class.
Anything but timorous: the sound
produced by the twin dual-tube tailpipes.
To sum up briefly: what drives the new
Cayenne Turbo S forward is incredible
performance. But that’s something you
know all about.
The sky really is the limit.
Performance.

The new Cayenne Turbo S is a powerful
athlete. Its extra muscle is to be found
under the bonnet: at the heart of the car.
Highly aesthetic, featuring lightweight
construction and designed for high per-
formance – with comparatively low fuel
consumption. It’s what we call Intelligent
Performance – in keeping with our rich
engineering heritage.
Visually, that extra power is expressed
by a titanium coloured intake manifold
and two carbon inlays, each featuring
the ‘turbo S’ logo.
Also in carbon: the ‘4.8’ and ‘V8’ logos.
These figures reveal a great deal about
the power that lies within – and about the
drive unit itself. This is confirmed by the
performance diagram shown opposite.
The engine that powers the Cayenne
Turbo S delivers an impressive output
and abundant reserves of power. Added
to that is 750 Nm of torque available
between 2,250 and 4,500 rpm.
We imagine that such high levels of
performance are something you’re
quite familiar with.

road conditions and driving style. There
are three setup modes to choose from:
‘Comfort’, ‘Normal’ and ‘Sport’. These
adapt to the prevailing driving conditions,
enabling noticeably greater car control
and safety.
Fitted as standard, Porsche Torque
Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus) offers variable
distribution of engine torque to the rear
wheels and electronically controlled
rear differential. PTV Plus also optimises
steering response and precision by
applying brake pressure to the left or
right rear wheel.
Also standard, Porsche Dynamic Chassis
Control (PDCC) is an active anti-roll system
that further enhances the extraordinary
road holding and precision handling of
the new Cayenne Turbo S. It significantly
reduces lateral body movement when
cornering. After all, you only know one
direction: straight ahead.
Time is a luxury that you should afford
yourself. The Sport Chrono Package,
which is standard on the Cayenne Turbo S,
features an analogue and digital timer
located at the centre of the dashboard.
The performance display in PCM informs
you about the total driving time, lap
distance covered so far and individual
lap times.
Power steering Plus is a speed-sensitive
power-steering system. At higher speeds,
the steering becomes firmer, inputs
are more precise and driver comfort is
enhanced. At lower speeds, it enables
easy manoeuvrability and parking.
