The company's Chinese name is generally referred to as Porsche. Its headquarters is located in Stuttgart and was founded by Ferdinand Porsche (commonly known as 'Big Porsche'). 2. The new Porsche Cayman will be equipped with a newly developed 2.5L horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine. Thanks to direct fuel injection and turbocharging technology, the engine's maximum output power exceeds 320 horsepower.
When I first got my driver's license, I drove a friend's car once and was quite nervous. To start it, I had to sit in the driver's seat, adjust the seat and steering wheel properly to ensure my feet could easily reach the brake pedal. Then, insert the key into the ignition slot on the left side of the steering wheel or simply use the smart key in my pocket. Remember to press the brake pedal; otherwise, pressing the start button won't do anything. After pressing it, the engine roars to life with a deep and powerful sound, and it's considered stable only when the indicator lights on the dashboard go off. The first time, I was so flustered that I didn't press the brake pedal firmly enough and had to try twice before succeeding. Later, I learned that this design by Porsche prevents accidental starts—pretty smart. After starting, the air conditioning and audio system automatically turn on, and after warming up for a short while, you're ready to drive. It becomes simple once you're familiar with it; new drivers just need a few more practices to get the hang of it. If the button isn't responsive, it might be because the key's battery is dead.
Having driven a Porsche for over a decade, starting it has become second nature. I first fasten my seatbelt and casually place the key into the designated slot near the center console. With my right foot firmly pressing the brake pedal, I lightly tap the red start button on the steering wheel with my left index finger. The engine instantly awakens with a pleasant roar, and the dashboard lights flicker to indicate readiness. The whole process takes just two seconds—the key is to press the brake pedal fully, or the button won't respond. After starting, I check the rearview mirror and tire pressure to ensure everything is normal before shifting gears. If the startup is slow or unresponsive, I usually check the smart key battery or try the spare key. On rainy days, don't forget to dry the sensors. The car is designed with user-friendliness in mind, making every startup feel like the beginning of a journey.
