Even More Efficient, More Sporting and for the First Time with Hybrid Drive

World Debut in Geneva: The New Porsche Cayenne

Stuttgart. Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG, Stuttgart, is presenting the brand-new genera-
tion of the Cayenne Sports Utility at the Geneva Motor Show in early March.

The absolute highlight of this new generation is the world debut of the Cayenne S
Hybrid with its technically highly sophisticated parallel full hybrid drive and fuel con-
sumption in the New European Driving Cycle of just 8.2 litres/100 kilometres (equal
to 34.4 mpg imp), which means CO2 emissions of just 193 g/km. The Cayenne S Hy-
brid therefore combines the performance of an eight-cylinder with the economy of a
six-cylinder running on much less fuel.

Led by the Cayenne S Hybrid, all models in the new generation are trendsetters in
efficiency and performance in their respective segments. Compared with the former
models, fuel consumption is down by up to 23 per cent, since the new Cayenne, like
every Porsche, has been developed according to the principle of “Porsche Intelligent
Performance”: more power on less fuel, greater efficiency and lower CO2 emissions.

These objectives result, not least, from the introduction of the new Tiptronic S eight-
speed automatic transmission with Auto Start Stop and a wide spread of gear ratios,
thermal management on the engine and transmission cooling circuit, on-board net-
work recuperation, variable engine cut-off and intelligent lightweight construction.

Thanks to its special combination of materials for optimum weight as well as changes
in the overall concept of the vehicle such as the Cayenne’s new active and extra-light
all-wheel drive, weight is down for example on the Cayenne S by 180 kilos or 400 lb
– despite the improvement of product substance and an even higher standard of
safety. This clearly has very positive effects not just on fuel consumption and CO2
emissions, but also on performance, agility and handling.

Benefiting from these features and new technologies, the new Cayenne offers even
more driving pleasure both onroad and offroad, combined with even greater everyday
driving qualities, enhanced comfort and supreme elegance. The completely new,
sporting and elegant design of the new model integrates the 2010 Cayenne even
more closely into the overall range of Porsche cars. The sports car-like character of
the Cayenne comes out even more from all angles, just as the highlights in the shape
and design of the car so typical of Porsche are also clearer than ever before.

Extra space inside and greater variability is ensured by the wheelbase now 40 mm or
almost 1.6” longer. In all, the new Cayenne is 48 mm or 1.9” longer than its prede-
cessor. But despite its larger exterior dimensions, the new generation of the Cayenne
is nevertheless far more compact and dynamic. The most significant eye-catcher
within the brand-new, high-quality interior is the centre console rising up to the front
with its upright selector or gearshift lever, giving the interior the typical character of a
cockpit upfront. The rear-seat bench moves fore-and-aft by 160 millimetres or 6.3”,
with the backrest angle adjusting to three different settings.

Sales of the Cayenne in Europe are starting on 8 May, with Porsche offering the right
model from the start for every customer: The range starts with the 3.6-litre V6 Cay-
enne. Despite the increase in engine power to 300 bhp, fuel consumption in the
NEDC driving cycle in conjunction with optional eight-speed Tiptronic S transmission
is down from the former model by no less than 20 per cent to 9.9 ltr/100 km, equal to
28.5 mpg imp.

The Cayenne Diesel with its 240 bhp (176 kW), 550 Newton-metre (405 lb-ft) three-
litre V6 likewise reduces fuel consumption by 20 per cent, down from 9.3 to 7.4
ltr/100 km (equal to 30.4 mpg imp now improving to 38.2 mpg imp).

Fuel consumption is also down significantly on the high-torque Cayenne S with its
4.8-litre V8 power unit, in this case by 23 per cent to 10.5 litres/100 kilometres (equal
to 26.9 mpg imp). At the same time the new engine delivers 400 bhp maximum out-
put instead of the former 385 bhp, offering significantly better performance, just like
all models in the new generation of the Cayenne.

This also applies to the Cayenne Turbo, with its 500 bhp (368 kW) 4.8-litre V8 biturbo
consuming just 11.5 ltr/100 km (equal to 27.6 mpg imp) in the New European Driving
Cycle, again 23 per cent less than its predecessor (14.9 ltr/100 km or 19.0 mpg imp).

Together with the Cayenne S Hybrid, no less than three of the five versions of the
Cayenne thus consume less than ten litres of fuel per 100 km in the New European
Driving Cycle, with two models emitting less than 200 grams of CO2 per kilometre. At
193 g/km, the Cayenne S Hybrid is not only the cleanest version of the Cayenne with
the lowest level of emissions, but also the cleanest Porsche throughout the Com-
pany’s entire portfolio.

In the intelligent interaction of the three-litre supercharged V6 and the electric motor,
the Cayenne S Hybrid focuses on maximum efficiency from the overall system. De-
pending on driving conditions, the vehicle reaches this target with either only one
drive unit operating by itself or with both drive units working together. In this context
the 34 kW (47 hp) electric motor is of course the ideal partner for the 333 hp com-
pressor engine with its high torque at low speeds. Together, the two drive units de-
liver maximum system output of 380 bhp and peak torque of 580 Nm/427 lb-ft at just
1,000 rpm, with the same kind of performance as the Cayenne S with its V8 power
unit.

The two drive units are connected to one another by a separator clutch master-
minded by the Hybrid Manager. Indeed, this separator clutch is essential to run the
Cayenne S Hybrid either on its electric motor or combustion engine alone, or with
both drive units operating together. Given a reserved, moderate style of motoring, for
example in a residential area, this allows the driver to cover short distances on elec-
tric power alone and therefore absolutely free of emissions and with hardly any noise,
driving at a speed of up to 60 km/h or almost 40 mph.

To ensure fast acceleration when setting off, the electric motor may however serve to
provide additional thrust through its boosting effect. Intelligent management of the
separator clutch makes the transition among the hybrid-specific driving modes most
inconspicuous, comfortable and quick for the driver. At the same time the combustion
engine may be completely switched off at speeds of up to 156 km/h or 97 mph, being
fully disengaged from the drivetrain when no further power is required. In this so-
called sailing mode, cruising along without power, the drag forces exerted by the
combustion engine and their braking effect are eliminated in the interest of lower
drive resistance and fuel consumption.

The prices of the new Cayenne models in Germany including national specifications
and 19 per cent value-added tax (Euro base prices without national specifications
and 19 per cent VAT in brackets) are as follows:

Cayenne 55,431 Euro (46,400 Euro)

Cayenne Diesel 59,596 Euro (49,900 Euro)
Cayenne S 72,686 Euro (60,900 Euro)
Cayenne S Hybrid 78,636 Euro (65,900 Euro)
Cayenne Turbo 115,526 Euro (96,900 Euro).
