How do I operate the instrument cluster in the Cayenne Electric?

The Cayenne Electric features a fully digital instrument cluster with a freestanding curved display using OLED technology. It replaces traditional round instruments with a modern, individually configurable display in Porsche’s characteristic tube design. 

The layout is consistently driver-focused and adapts to the selected driving mode, active driver assistance systems, as well as the use of navigation and media. Clear graphics, high contrast and smooth animations support quick recognition of all relevant information while driving.

The map is available in two display variants: reduced or extended. The “Extended Map” view hides the round instruments and shows the navigation map across the full width of the instrument cluster.

Personalisation 

The right‑hand tube in the instrument cluster can be individually configured. Depending on your needs, you can select content such as navigation, media, charging data, energy flow, driver assistance systems or Sport Chrono information.

Operation is carried out directly via the multifunction steering wheel using the toggle button and the roller. The settings you make are saved in the respective driver profile and automatically reloaded the next time the vehicle is started, provided the corresponding user profile is active.
