Year to Year Changes
2004 Porsche Cayenne:
A V6 version joined the two V8 Cayennes in 2004. Borrowed from Volkswagen, the 3.2-liter V6 developed 247 horsepower, driving a six-speed automatic transmission.
2005 Porsche Cayenne:
Porsche gave buyers the choice of a manual gearbox for 2005, but only for the V6 Cayenne. The six-speed manual transmission included the Porsche Drive-Off Assistant, designed to hold the brakes on inclines until the clutch was engaged. Exterior trim was revised this year, and a rearview camera became available. Also newly optional were satellite radio, black exterior trim (instead of silver), and a SportDesign package with flared side sills and deeper under-bumper fascias.
2006 Porsche Cayenne:
A new option became available for 2006, the ability to warm the Cayenne's interior without running the engine. This independent interior pre-heating and pre-ventilating system included a 24-hour programmable timer. Porsche sat out the 2007 model year, awaiting the arrival of a redesigned 2008 Cayenne.
