Interior Design & features:

The cayenne interior is well crafted with leather seating and it looks more attractive with a steering wheel inspired by 918 porsche spyder. It has soft touch material on Dashboard, inner doors and Steering wheel with the same colour. One thing that bothers little is the number of button on center console but again good and logical thing about these buttons is that they are grouped together on the basis of appearance and functionality which make it easy to identify and operate.
