Tires: Description and Operation



Tires

A new generation of tires will also be introduced with the new Cayenne models. These tires offer improved performance, handling, rolling resistance, tire wear and weight. Tires generally offer a high potential for reducing fuel consumption. The three basic components of all tires were optimized: the rubber mixture, tread design and casing architecture. For a tire to obtain Porsche series approval, it must meet all the demanding specifications down to the very last detail. For this reasons, the tires have the familiar N specification.

Run-flat systems

All the Cayenne models come as standard with a space-saving tire repair system comprising tire sealing compound and an electric pneumatic compressor.
