The Porsche Cayenne is a one-of-a-kind SUV with historical design from the automaker, as well as a complete upgrade for the latest models. All new turbocharged engines are included even in the standard trim so that you get a starting horsepower of 335. This number goes all the way up with a twin turbocharged engine, delivering 541 horsepower for the premium Cayenne trims. With seating for five, tons of entertainment, and all-wheel drive, you'll love the way that it feels to drive the Cayenne.

For an SUV, the Cayenne delivers on performance. 

 

You already know how to share roads with other vehicles, but what about bicyclists? Legally, they have the same rights as drivers, and they are held to the same standards. Porsche Monterey has a few tips to help you share the road with cyclists safely.

Number one is to pay attention. Distracted driving is a problem for everyone. Keep an eye out for bicyclists, pedestrians and others. Make sure to fully stop before turning, and leave about three feet of space between you and bicycle riders. If there's not enough room for your car and a bike to ride…

There are a number of different factors that can contribute to odors developing in your car. Whether you take your pets on the road with you, your kids are eating during a drive or you have left some garbage in there for a few days, there are some steps you can take to prevent some stinky issues from occurring again in the future.

Make sure that garbage is cleaned out from your vehicle each day. Don't leave food or other perishable items laying around. They will spoil and smell.

 

 

More and more vehicles are including an infotainment system. You can see just how it works when you stop into Porsche Monterey. We’ll show you how the features will benefit you as you drive around Seaside.

The central screen serves as a command center so that you can control everything from the audio system to navigation functions. You’ll have some added features, too, like vehicle systems and Bluetooth calling. Plus, you can connect your phone to the system in most instances, allowing you to gain access to some of your favorite apps.

 

 

Here at our location in the Seaside area, we take time to help our customers and other drivers to remain safer as they operate their vehicles. While many vehicles include wide varieties of safety features that are designed to maximize passenger, driver, and pedestrian safety, there are few features that do this as effectively as backup camera systems. That said, many drivers new to this technology may know little about the subject.

Drivers everywhere will be seeing backup cameras appearing on newly manufactured vehicles due to federal laws that were passed in May of 2018.

Blind spot monitors have become more popular in the past five years. With the addition of sensors and cameras on vehicles, you can now get warnings that help you drive along any road and in any traffic conditions. Blind spot monitors are sensors and cameras that track motion and help you see where you can't, which is especially important for larger vehicles.

On big SUVs, trucks, sedans, and other vehicles, you'll find that blind spot monitors can save lives. You may not be able to see every point on your vehicle...

At Porsche Monterey in Seaside, we keep our consumers informed about how their vehicles function. A differential is an important component that needs to be maintained for your vehicle to run smoothly.

A differential is a gearbox that can be found between the drive wheels of your vehicle. If you have a vehicle with four-wheel drive, it probably has a front and rear differential. The differential works with the transmission to move power from the engine to the axle of the wheels. A differential also helps your vehicle turn. 

Some drivers don't like sharing roadways with bicyclists, but bike riders have a right to be there. Here are some tips to help motorists and cyclists safely coexist on roadways.

What do you do when there isn't enough room on the side of your lane for a bike rider? Wait for your chance to pass them. When space is limited, the cyclist gets to use the whole lane. As soon as the other lane is clear, you have an opportunity to safely pass the cyclist. Another safety tip is to slow down, and follow the speed limit. That…

The holiday season can feel like a very stressful time for most people. Certainly, this is especially true for a single driver or a family that is traveling to visit relatives during the holiday season. Often, drivers are aware of the usual things like observing traffic laws and staying within the speed limit. However, we would like to share a few more tips to help you stay safe this holiday season.

If you wish you could keep up with the brand new Porsche models that our favorite German automaker cooks up and drive a new vehicle every few years, we can't say we blame you.

It can be tough watching Porsche improve its lineup without being able to regularly partake in the fun. That's one of the many reasons why leasing your next Porsche model could be the right choice for you.
