Porsche Traction Management
(PTM) on the Cayenne Diesel and
Cayenne S Hybrid.
The Cayenne Diesel and Cayenne S
Hybrid feature a permanent all-wheel
drive system with self-locking centre
differential. This provides a standard
torque split of 60 % to the rear and 40 %
to the front. If one of the wheels is
about to lose grip, the self-locking centre
differential transmits the torque to the
axle offering the highest level of traction.
The ASR and ABD systems work in the
same way as in the PTM on the Cayenne,
Cayenne S and Cayenne Turbo.
On the Cayenne Diesel and Cayenne S
Hybrid, PTM also enables variable
distribution of engine torque to the rear
wheels, thereby enhancing steering pre-
cision and driving dynamics. Specifically,
this means that when entering a corner
at high speed, moderate brake pressure
is applied to the inside rear wheel.
This supports the steering motion of
the car, thereby improving its cornering
dynamics.
Standard on the Cayenne Diesel and
Cayenne S Hybrid.
Porsche Hill Control (PHC).
A standard feature on all Cayenne models,
Porsche Hill Control (PHC) provides
downhill assistance by maintaining a
constant rate of speed on extreme
downhill gradients. It is activated via a
switch on the centre console. The speed
can be set to between 3 and 30 km/h
(2 and 18 mph).
