The Porsche brand in Colorado is at home in every season of the year. While a popular automobile model year-round, the Porsche Cayenne SUV may tend to receive even more attention in Colorado when the cooler months roll around. We thought it would be of interest to Porsche fans in Colorado to read more of what Porsche itself has to say about the sporty Porsche Cayenne.
Wheels and TPM
Porsche models have always been known for their distinctive wheel designs. The Cayenne is no exception. The Cayenne model comes standard with the 17-inch Cayenne wheel. The Cayenne S and Cayenne Turbo are each offered with the 18-inch Cayenne S II and the 18-inch Cayenne Turbo II.
Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM)
Standard on the Cayenne GTS and Cayenne Turbo, Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) is an electronic control system that adjusts the suspension system to changing driving styles and road conditions. PASM is also available as an option on the Cayenne and Cayenne S and is combined with air suspension.
The air suspension system features a self-leveling ride-height control and PASM. The six-level system is standard on the Cayenne Turbo and optional on the Cayenne and Cayenne S.
Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC)
Two major objectives of Porsche chassis design are optimal roadholding and precision handling. Both of these can be further enhanced with Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC). This optional aid is available for all new Cayenne models in conjunction with the optional air suspension featuring PASM.
Steering
To enhance the Cayenne’s innate agility, both on- and off-road, Porsche engineers combined a variable steering ratio with precise valve settings on the power-steering system. Lock-to-lock travel is a modest 2.65 turns, while the turning circle is just 38.39 feet.
The steering wheel can be adjusted by 1.97 inches for reach and 1.57 inches for height. Both adjustment options are manual on the Cayenne and Cayenne S, and power assisted on the Cayenne Turbo. Power adjustment is also available as an option on the Cayenne and Cayenne S in conjunction with the optional Comfort or Sports Seat Packages.
