Characteristics

The six-cylinder motors flat of the Cayman models profit from VarioCam Plus, one system of variable chock of the admission and the lifting of the valves. It makes it possible to optimize the couple in the beach of the low modes and to increase the power with raised mode, while reducing consumption. The flat 6 of Cayman draws its power of 245 ch (180 kw) of a cubic capacity of 2,7 liters. It reaches a maximum couple of 273 Nm.

In version of origin, Cayman is equipped with a mechanical Gear box with 5 reports/ratios. In option, it can receive Pack Sport with a mechanical box with 6 reports/ratios with the more sporting adjustment and Porsche Active Suspension Management, or an automatic box Tiptronic S (in option) with 5 relationship with orders at the wheel.

The box Tiptronic S reacts almost without cut of power. The passage of the reports/ratios is done into 0,2 second exactly. The activation of Pack Sport optional Stopwatch makes the passage of the reports/ratios even more sporting. In manual mode, it also prevents the automatic passage to the higher report/ratio.

According to the style and situation of control as well as selected mode (“Normal” or “Sport”), the regulation of the force of damping is made in an active and permanent way, individually on each wheel.

Its integrated aileron is spread starting from 120 km/h to decrease the bearing pressure on the rear axle.

In version of origin, Cayman is fitted of rims to double branches 17 inches especially drawn for him.

Porsche Activates Suspension Management (PASM)

Sensors evaluate the normal movements of Roulis of the Carrosserie, as one can meet them in strong acceleration, deceleration or on irregular coatings. They also treat the various signals such as transverse acceleration, the steering angle, the pressure of braking and the couple Moteur. These values are analyzed by the case PASM, which identifies control then and controls damping according to the mode chosen, “Normal” or “Sport”.

Installations

The front trunk offers a volume of loading of 150 liters, the back compartment with luggage of 260 liters, that is to say a total volume of 410 liters.

Cayman S passes from 0 to 100 km/h in 5,4 seconds and can reach a top speed of 275 km/h.

In comparison with the basic version of Cayman, one can note that the cubic capacity passes from 2687 Cm3 to 3387 Cm3, it results an increase from it from the power which passes from 245 ch to 295 ch, and maximum speed: of 258 km/h to 275 km/h.

In spite of an increase in 50kg of the weight of the car, the version S passes the bar of the 100km/h with 0,5 second of less than the basic version.

Cayman S receives series a mechanical Gear box with 6 reports/ratios, and in option a box Tiptronic S automatic to 5 relationship with orders at the wheel.
