ISOFIX mounting points.
The outer rear seats are equipped with
ISOFIX mounting points for compatible
child seats (p. 89) as standard. These
are available as an option for the front
passenger seat.
Bodyshell construction.
Our ongoing development of the light-
weight steel body is a decisive factor
in the enhanced passive safety and
unparalleled rigidity of the Cayenne body.
In the event of an accident, a system of
side and cross-members at the front of
the car helps to channel impact energy in
a safe and predetermined manner. The
interior is protected by hot-formed super
high-strength steel reinforcements,
including side intrusion beams in each of
the doors.
Passive safety: bodyshell
High strength and consistent deformation
properties: two key safety requirements
fulfilled by the multiphase steel used
throughout the body. Thanks to a safety
cage structure made from high-tech
steels, the highly resilient passenger cell
offers high levels of protection.
