Comfort And Transport - Porsche Cayenne User Handbook Manual

Our benchmark for exceptional driver comfort?
An out-and-out sports car.
Comfort.
As on every Porsche, the interior of the
Cayenne is designed around the driver,
combining sporting style with the very
highest standards of ergonomics, com-
fort and quality.
Particularly striking features include the
way the centre console rises to meet
the dashboard – clearly inspired by the
Carrera GT. This immediately enhances
the interior structure, a continuation of
the car's dynamic exterior lines. The seat
position and sports steering wheel offer
exceptional support and contact – for an
even sportier ride.

A typical Porsche feature: the five round
instruments form the familiar cluster and
are slightly raised from the dashboard as
a visual unit. The high-resolution 4.8-inch
TFT colour screen displays information
from the on-board computer or, in con-
junction with PCM including navigation
module, map data from the navigation
system. It also shows the settings of the
optional adaptive cruise control (p. 110)
or gives various warnings, such as alerts
from Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM),
which is also available as an option. On
the Cayenne S Hybrid, the display also
provides information about the energy
management.
Oil pressure, oil and coolant temperature
as well as the fuel level are displayed
using analogue gauges, while the boost
pressure gauge on the Cayenne Turbo
is digital. A compass display in the
instrument cluster is available as an
option in conjunction with PCM. This
shows the four cardinal and four ordinal
directions with degree increments as
well as your current altitude.
The steering column offers manual height
and reach adjustment (electrically adjust-
able on the Cayenne Turbo). The steering
wheel rim is in smooth-finish leather.
As is the optional SportDesign steering
wheel with gearshift paddles (standard
on the new Cayenne GTS) – for genuine
race-style gearshift action. Also available
as an option, the multifunction steering
wheel enables easy access to a range of
functions including audio and telephone.
