With the ignition on, hold down the sport mode switch button and simultaneously push the shock absorber adjustment button to the topmost position for six seconds to switch to lift mode. Below is an introduction to the 2021 Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT: 1. Powertrain: Equipped with a 4.0L twin-turbocharged V8 engine, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. 2. Body Dimensions: Length, width, and height are 4942mm, 1995mm, and 1636mm respectively. The wheelbase is 2895mm. 3. Chassis: Front-engine four-wheel drive configuration, front suspension is multi-link independent suspension, rear suspension is multi-link independent suspension, with a unibody structure.
The Porsche Cayenne's lift mode is amazing, and my car has this feature, which helps me easily overcome obstacles when off-roading. The operation is super simple: after starting the engine, find the driving mode selection on the central control screen, click into the Off-Road or off-road settings option, and there will be a 'Lift' or 'Raise Chassis' switch—just turn it on. The car will slowly raise the chassis, and the dashboard will show the increased height. This feature is suitable for use on bumpy roads, beaches, or when crossing water, as it can increase the height by 20-40mm to prevent scraping. However, don't use it on highways—the system will limit the speed, otherwise it may damage the suspension. Remember to turn it off after use and return to normal mode. I often drive on mountain roads on weekends, and it feels more stable and comfortable when activated. When trying it for the first time, familiarize yourself with the system and ensure the road conditions allow it. It's also important to check the air suspension system during regular maintenance to avoid air leakage issues affecting the lift performance. Overall, this little trick makes driving safer and more fun.
Driving a Porsche Cayenne, I found the lift mode quite convenient. The operation steps are: first start the vehicle, swipe to the settings area in the central control screen menu, select the Off-Road driving mode, then look for the 'Lift Height' or similar button to click and activate. The entire process is completed automatically, and the raised chassis is suitable for uneven ground. I rarely use it for city driving, but it's great for preventing scrapes when encountering rocks or ditches on suburban roads. Important reminder: speed is limited when activated, do not exceed 80km/h; remember to manually deactivate and restore the height when finished. Just a few simple steps to solve off-road troubles.
