Porsche off-road track

Slush or mud: the loosely applied gravel simulates both at the same time. Getting bogged down? Could happen – unless you drive smoothly. Driving style: at constant speed.

We send you off into the desert. At least for a short section. The challenge: sand half a meter deep, which you have to cross. Getting bogged down - virtually impossible, thanks to the Porsche Traction Management System (PTM). Driving style: keep it steady.

Nobody normally gets in your way? We’ll try it anyway. With various concrete cylinders, which represent a serious obstacle. Driving style: calm and cautious.

How do you handle an 80 % incline? With 100 % courage. An extreme challenge to the driver – not to mention the passenger. How will you pass this test of your nerve? With the electronically controlled Porsche four-wheel drive system. Driving style: slow and very careful.

This is where you take off. Piles of stone displaced to the left and right of each other tilt the vehicle across its lateral axis, with diagonally opposite wheels hanging in the air. Driving style: in slow motion and with care.

The only way up? The stairway. The way down: just the same. Are the wheels losing contact with the ground? No problem. The Porsche Hill Control will smooth the way. Driving style: walking pace.

This forest drive is no walk in the park. The terrain is uneven and sandy. Various piles of stone and a diagonal slope with a 30° incline and 25° tilt also make the course interesting. Driving style: slow and with foresight.

Now things really began to tilt! Here you need to concentrate and keep your nerve, because the vehicle leans well over to one side: by 25° on the straight and by as much as 35° in the curve. Passengers - hold on tight! Driving style: slow and controlled.

A steady hand is required here, because the course gets tight. The track: narrow. The ground: slippery. Precision is the watchword here. Driving style: slow in order to avoid bottoming out.

Time to hold on tight. Crossing the old bunkers on the course means a bumpy ride. The drive: all ups and downs. The visibility: limited. Driving style: nice and steady.

Go for it. Across marshy ground. Around bends. Through slush and mud. Driving style: brisk along the straight sections, carefully controlled through the bends.

Nothing but ups and downs – only the fun of driving remains the same. On the way: a tank bridge which has to be conquered. Driving style: brisk, except when crossing the tank bridge.

Solid ground beneath your wheels? Forget it. Keeping the vehicle straight? Virtually impossible. The challenge is keeping the car under control in deep mud. Driving style: slow but steady.

Here we put obstacles in your way. To be more precise: logs of wood for you to drive over. Tracks don't come any rougher, but the Porsche Automatic Brake Differential (ABD) helps to smooth out the bumps. Driving style: cautious and slow.

Keep doors and windows tightly closed, because a 50 cm deep and 100 meter long ditch is waiting for you. The special design of the Cayenne’s bodywork makes sure that you don't get wet. Driving style: taking it easy.

At Porsche Leipzig, protecting the environment is practised not preached - using a unique grazing concept. Safely separated from the actual off-road track, wild horses and aurochs live here in an ecological paradise.
