PTV in conjunction with the manual gear ­
box, or PT V Plus with Porsche Doppel ­
kupplung (PDK), are available as options
for the 911 Carrera models and standard
in the 9 11 Carrera S models. Both systems
actively enhance vehicle dynamics and
stability. Operating in conjunction with a
mechanical (PT V) or electronic (PT V Plus)
rear differential lock, they work by
braking the rear wheels as the situation
demands.
As a function of steering angle and steering
speed, accelerator pedal position, yaw
rate and vehicle speed, PT V and PT V Plus
are able to improve steering response
and steering precision by specific braking
of the right or left rear wheel. To be more precise, this means that when
the car is driven assertively into a corner,
moderate brake pressure is applied to the
inside rear wheel. Consequently, a greater
amount of drive force is distributed to the
outside rear wheel, inducing an additional
rotational pulse (yaw movement) around
the vehicle’s vertical axis. This results in
a direct and sport y steering action as the
car enters the corner.
At low and medium vehicle speeds, PT V
and PT V Plus significantly increase agilit y
and steering precision. At high speeds
and when accelerating out of corners,
the rear differential lock ensures greater
driving stability. With PTV, the differential
lock is regulated mechanically; with

Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV) and
Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus).
PT V Plus, it is regulated electronically and
the torque distribution is infinitely varia ­
ble. Whichever system is fit ted, it interacts
with Porsche Stabilit y Management (PSM)
to improve driving stabilit y on a range of
surface conditions, including the wet and
snow.
For the driver, this means remarkable
stability, easier handling and outstanding
traction as well as greater agilit y at every
speed with precise steering and stable
load transfer characteristics. What else?
Unrivalled driving pleasure at every t wist
and turn.

Control, discipline, precision.

At Porsche, we take driving pleasure very seriously.

S a f e t y.
Brakes.
Another crucial piece of the Porsche
identit y is the brakes. We value them as
highly as we do our engines and chassis.
They set standards for deceleration and
stabilit y, and give the driver the reassur ­
ance needed to push the car to the limits
of its performance.
The 911 Carrera base models are fit ted
front and rear with anodised black four ­
piston aluminium monobloc fixed calipers.
All brake discs have a diameter of 330 mm.
On the S models, we have fit ted larger
brakes and more brake pistons to cope
with the higher engine power of these
models. Consequently, they feature red
six­piston monobloc aluminium fixed
brake calipers at the front and four ­piston
aluminium monobloc fixed calipers at
the rear. The brake disc diameter is
340 mm at the front and 330 mm at the
rear. The results are enhanced braking
performance and stability.
On all models, the brake calipers have
an enclosed monobloc construction.
This makes them tougher but lighter and enables a more rapid response and
release of the brake even under extreme
loads. The pedal travel is short and

the biting point precise. The brake discs
are cross ­drilled for better performance
in the wet.
Other benefits of the standard braking
system include the anti ­lock braking
system (ABS), designed to keep deceler ­
ation constant. Pedal effort is reduced
and braking response improved by an
8 ­/9 ­inch tandem vacuum brake booster.
In the S models, brake disc cooling is
further enhanced by modified air spoilers.

Sports seats.
The sports seats in partial leather

are comfortable and provide support
even during performance driving.
They are equipped as standard with
electric seat height and backrest
adjustment and mechanical fore/aft
adjustment.
Sports seats Plus.
Available as an option are sports seats
Plus in leather with electric seat height
and backrest adjustment as well as
mechanical fore/aft adjustment. The side
bolsters on the squab and backrest the steering wheel, lights, wipers, air

conditioning, door locks, PCM, and
instrument cluster.
Adaptive sports seats Plus.
The optional adaptive sports seats Plus
are the ideal combination of sport
and comfort. Finished in leather and
with side bolsters having a firm, sport y
padding, they also feature shoulder
supports for the best possible hold.
Of fering 18 ­way electric adjustment,
the seats can be optimally adapted to
meet your needs in terms of seat height,
squab and backrest angle, squab length,
have a firmer, sportier padding and offer
even bet ter lateral support. The backrest
shell is finished in Silver Grey.
Fully electric sports seats.
If you don’t want to sacrifice sportiness
for comfort, the optional fully electric
sports seats offer fully electric adjustment
of seat height, backrest angle, squab angle,
sq ua b dept h, fore/a f t posi t io n, fou r ­way
lumbar support and even the steering
column.
The integrated memor y package supports
the exterior mirrors and all seat positions
on the driver’s side as well as set tings for
fore/aft adjustment and four ­way lumbar
support. The steering column is also
electrically adjustable.
In addition, the side bolsters on the seat
squab and backrest are independently
adjustable for added comfort on long
journeys and precision lateral support
on winding roads. Also included is the
personal memory for all seat positions
(apart from the side bolsters) and lumbar
support on the driver’s side as well as
the positions of the steering wheel and
exterior mirrors. The memory function
also supports set tings for the steering
wheel, lights, wipers, air conditioning,
door locks, PCM, and instrument cluster.
Sports bucket seats.*
Sports bucket seats featuring a folding
backrest, integral thorax airbag and
manual fore/aft adjustment are available
as optional equipment. The seat shells
are made from glass ­ and carbon­fibre
reinforced plastic (CFRP) with a carbon
surface finish.

Seat heating and ventilation.
Seat heating is available as an option
for all seats (except for sports bucket
seats). Seats are heated in the squab,
the backrest and, for the front seats,
the side bolsters.
The ideal basis for any relationship:
Support as well as freedom.

Seating.In conjunction with seat heating, we can
equip the seats with seat ventilation on
request. A slipstream effect is produced
by active ventilation of the perforated
seat centre and backrest and by passive
aeration at the side bolsters. This evapo ­
rates perspiration moisture and therefore
makes for a dry and pleasant seating
environment, even in hot weather.
Rear seats.
The rear seats are remarkably comforta ­
ble for a sports car and the shelf behind
offers additional storage space. With
the backrests folded down, the luggage
compartment volume in the 911 Carrera
Coupé models increases to 260 litres
and, with a capacit y of 160 litres availa ­
ble, the 911 Carrera Cabriolet models
offer plent y of space for luggage, too.
Child seats.*
ISOFIX child seat preparation including
top tether is available on the rear seats
as standard. On request, we can equip
the front passenger seat with ISOFIX child
seat preparation and integrate an airbag
deactivation feature.

Porsche Entry & Drive.
With the optional Porsche Entry & Drive,
you can leave your car key in your pocket.
As soon as you grab the door handle

or approach the luggage compartment,
the system automatically checks the
encrypted access code on the key. Once
the key is validated, the door or the luggage compartment lid unlocks. The
engine can then be started and switched
off using the electronic ignition switch.
To lock the vehicle, you simply press the
but ton on the outside of the door handle.
Porsche Entry & Drive then locks the
vehicle and activates the engine immobi
­
liser and steering column lock.
Anti-theft protection.
All 911 Carrera models are equipped as
standard with an immobiliser with in ­key
transponder and an alarm system with
radar ­based interior surveillance. The
system secures the doors, luggage com ­
partment, passenger compartment and
ignition lock.
Audio and communication in the 911
Sound Package Plus.
The Sound Package Plus is fit ted as
standard. The system comprises a
separate amplifier with a total output
of 235 wat ts, seven amplifier channels
and nine loudspeakers, all of which
combine to create the perfect interior
sound experience.
Identity is to do with where you come from.
Sometimes, it’s also to do with where you want to be.
