Now other than the unique rear of the car, there Cayenne Coupe also has a character of its own which helps in differentiating it from the regular SUV. For starters, the front windscreen and A-pillar are slimmer than in the Cayenne, as the roof edge that has been lowered by around 20 mm. Redesigned rear doors and fenders have broaden the shoulders of the coupe by 18 mm and that builds up on its overall muscular impression. The rear number plate is integrated into the bumper and it gets adaptive roof spoiler. The current Cayenne Turbo was the first SUV to feature this type of active aerodynamics and the Coupe body design adds up to that novelty. On each Cayenne Coupé, a roof spoiler is combined with a new adaptive rear spoiler as part of Porsche Active Aerodynamics (PAA). The spoiler is integrated into its silhouette and extends by 135 mm at speeds of 90 kmph and up, increasing the contact pressure on the rear axle, while PAA simultaneously enhances efficiency.
