Safety

The safety of passengers plays a major role for Porsche. The safety of all new Cayenne models has been significantly increased yet again, starting from the already high level of the previous model. Active and passive safety has been developed even further and new technology has been integrated. Extensive safety features have also been included in the passenger compartment in addition to the systems affecting the body. As an example, all Cayenne models protect their passengers as standard with six airbags as well as side impact protection integrated in the doors. Two additional side airbags in the rear are also available as an option.
