How Does Porsche InnoDrive Work?

Throughout the entire Porsche inventory, you’ll find a wide range of automotive technologies that bring your Merriam, KS and Wichita, KS drives to the next level. Porsche InnoDrive is one of the top examples of the brand’s commitment to innovation, but just what is Porsche InnoDrive? This system debuted on the 2018 Porsche Panamera, but it has expanded over time to popular models like the Porsche Cayenne. Get to know the workings of the Porsche InnoDrive system with Porsche Kansas City, and get more service tips with our team in Merriam.
Porsche InnoDrive Function
What does Porsche InnoDrive do? This system actively watches the roads and anticipates changes before you reach them. Both Porsche Adaptive Cruise Control and InnoDrive work in tandem to utilize high-resolution navigation, radar, and video sensor data. Together, they map out the roads ahead – taking note of topographical road features and speed limits along the way. This allows the vehicle to prepare for road gradients and sharp corners, so you’re never surprised by a sudden shift in terrain. Here are just a few benefits of Porsche InnoDrive:
- Smoother ride quality
- Optimized acceleration and deceleration
- Better fuel efficiency
- Enhanced performance
Traffic Jam Assist
Another huge perk of Porsche InnoDrive with Porsche Adaptive Cruise Control is Traffic Jam Assist. When you reach speeds of 37 mph, Traffic Jam Assist kicks into action with the following features:
- Automatically tracks vehicles and road signs
- Gently keeps your vehicle in the center of the lane
- Regulates distance from vehicles behind and in front of you
- Follows the queue when system limitations allow
Driver Override
While most St. Louis, MO drivers keep Porsche InnoDrive with Porsche Adaptive Cruise Control activated at all times, you have full control of both systems. Simply activate the brake or the accelerator to switch your vehicle back into manual mode. This allows you to quickly override the system for as long as you’d like, and you can switch back just as easily.
