Materials and recycling.
Owning a Porsche should be a
lasting pleasure with minimal
impact on the environment. That's
why every Porsche is built to
endure both technically and in
terms of design. The lightweight
exhaust on the Cayenne models,
for example, is constructed from
long-life stainless steel.
Weight reduction is a fundamental
part of the Porsche design philoso-
phy. By using a greater proportion
of high-strength materials, e.g.,
special steels, cast aluminium
alloys and synthetic materials, we
have successfully reduced the
weight of each car and therefore
its fuel consumption. Every produc-
tion process we use at Porsche
is designed with the environment
in mind. Also, every Porsche model
