Sport Chrono Package
In the new Cayman models, the optional
Sport Chrono Package provides
simultaneous enhancement for the
chassis, engine, and transmission—
accompanied by an even more emotive
sound. All at the push of a button.
In addition to the performance display
and a digital and analog stopwatch, the
Sport Chrono Package includes dynamic
gearbox mounts. Another component
is the Sport Plus button. When this is
pressed, the optional Porsche Active
Suspension Management (PASM)
switches to Sport mode for harder
damping and more direct steering, and
even more intensive roadholding.
The trigger threshold for PSM is
raised. Agility is perceptibly enhanced
when braking for corners with PSM,
allowing even sportier braking and exit
acceleration. For even greater dexterity,
PSM can be set to standby while the car
is still in Sport Plus mode. For safety,
it is set to intervene automatically only
when ABS assistance is required.
The throttle-blip function produces even
sportier gearshifts. A managed burst of
throttle ensures smooth load changes
for increased stability and makes
the gearshift process an even more
engaging experience. In conjunction
with the optional PDK, the Sport Chrono
Package comes with two additional
functions for a sporty drive that
borders on a motorsport experience.
The first is Launch Control, which is
designed to produce a racing start.
The second function is the motorsport-
derived gearshift strategy. In this
mode, PDK is designed for very short
shift times and optimal shift points,
while torque boosts during gear changes
provide the maximum acceleration
available. This involving experience is
further enhanced by overrun downshifts
and the throttle-blip function, for
uncompromising driving pleasure.
An additional display in the steering
wheel and instrument cluster indicates
whether the Sport or Sport Plus buttons
and, with PDK, Launch Control have
been activated. In conjunction with
the optional Porsche Communication
Management (PCM), a special display
enables you to view, store, and evaluate
lap times or other driving times. It shows
the total driving time, lap distance, lap
number, and lap times recorded so far.
