Hood.
To our engineers, clever and innovative
hood technology is particularly
important. The result we see today is
a flexible fabric hood comprising a fixed
glass rear screen and three integral hood
elements, which are manufactured from
magnesium. This makes the hood highly
robust and, yet, particularly light weight.
Another benefit is that the hood is
smooth and firm. The fabric remains taut
keeping the familiar 911 lines elegant. A
trivialit y? Only if you choose to ignore the
impressively low drag coefficient. In the case of the 911 Carrera Cabriolet
models, for example, it ’s as low as 0.30.
A further feat of Porsche engineering.
The rear screen is made from glass

and is electrically heated and scratch-
resistant to provide excellent rearward
visibilit y. A rain channel on the hood
carries away water to avoid dripping
when the doors are opened.
Electrically powered, the hood is
operated using a but ton on the centre
console or via the key remote. It opens
or closes in just 13 seconds and remains
operable up to a speed of 50 km/ h. The concertina action ensures optimum
protection for the interior lining.
The interior hood lining is made from
a heat-
insulating and sound
-absorbing
material. Consistent interior temperatures
and an effective suppression of wind
noise are the perceptible results. Thank -
fully, however, even the hood’s sound -
proofing properties are no match for
the resonant Porsche sound.
Open, flexible, independent.
The optimum prerequisites for a long-term relationship.

Wheels.
The 911 Carrera models are equipped
with 19-inch Carrera wheels as standard.
These are light weight alloys featuring a
classic sport y design. Tyre sizes are
235/40 ZR 19 and 285/35 ZR 19 at the
front and rear, respectively. All-wheel-
drive models are fit ted with even wider
295/35 ZR 19 t yres at the rear.The S models are equipped with light-
alloy 20 -inch Carrera
S wheels as
standard. The visual effect is sport y and
dynamic. The t yres are slightly wider to
cope with the increased power output of
these models: 245/35 ZR 20 at the
front, 295/30 ZR 20 at the rear. All-
wheel-drive models have 305/30 ZR 20
t yres at the rear.
The large t yre size improves both ride
comfort and track performance. Rolling
resistance, dry braking distances and t yre
weight are all comparatively low, thereby
helping to reduce fuel consumption.
A selection of 20 -inch wheels is available
in our range of options.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM).
Integrated as standard, Tyre Pressure
Monitoring (TPM) sends warnings to the
on-board computer’s display screen in
the event of low t yre pressure or a
gradual or sudden loss of pressure. The
individual pressures in all four t yres can
be displayed in the instrument cluster.
Porsche Stability Management (PSM).
As standard, the 911 Carrera models are
equipped with enhanced Porsche Stability
Management (PSM), which maintains sta -
bilit y even at the limits of dynamic driving
performance. Sensors continuously moni -
tor the direction, speed, yaw velocit y and
lateral acceleration of the car. Using this
information, PSM is able to calculate the actual direction of travel at any given
moment. If the car begins to oversteer or
understeer, PSM applies selective braking
on individual wheels to restore stabilit y.
Under acceleration on wet or low-grip
road surfaces, PSM improves traction
using the automatic brake diffe
rential
(ABD) and anti -slip regulation (ASR).
When the SPORT PLUS mode of the
optional Sport Chrono Package is selected,
the PSM threshold is raised to allow a
sportier driving style.
For an even more dynamic experience,
you always have the option to deactivate
PSM. It is automatically reactivated,
for your safet y, only if you brake harder
and either of the front wheels (in SPORT
PLUS mode, both of the front wheels) requires ABS assistance. ABS and ABD,
however, remain active at all times.
PSM therefore offers a high level of

driving stability and safety combined
with extraordinary agilit y. It ’s an
apparent contradiction in terms, but an
intrinsic part of the Porsche identit y.

From the start, Porsche has been
synonymous with motorsport. Ever since
1948, when we found our identit y on the
racetrack, we have taken the experience
we have gained and transferred it to the
road. The optional Porsche Ceramic
Composite Brake (PCCB) is a fine example.
This brake system has already had to
Composure | Safet y
cope with the harshest requirements of
motor racing and is fit ted in cars that
compete in demanding events, such as
the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup. The
cross-drilled PCCB ceramic brake discs
for the 911 Carrera have a diameter
of 350 mm front and rear for even
more formidable braking performance. What we’ve discovered from over 30,000 racing victories:
Brake later, finish sooner.

Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB).The use of six-piston aluminium
monobloc fixed brake calipers on the
front axle and four-piston units at the
rear – all finished in yellow – ensures
extremely high brake forces which,
crucially, are exceptionally consistent.
PCCB enables shorter braking distances
in even the toughest road and race
conditions. The key advantage of

PCCB is the extremely low weight of
the ceramic brake discs, which are
approximately 50 % lighter than standard
discs of similar design and size.
As well as enhancing performance and
fuel economy, this represents a major
reduction in unsprung and rotating
masses. The consequence is better roadholding
and increased comfort, particularly on
uneven roads, as well as greater agilit y
and improved handling.
The demands of racetrack use mean
that additional maintenance tasks
will be required alongside the routine
maintenance work scheduled as
part of standard maintenance intervals.

Electric parking brake.
The electric parking brake, which you
can activate and deactivate manually,
releases automatically as you pull away.

With the hill-
hold function, you can
pull away without ever rolling back.
The system automatically detects when
the vehicle has come to a halt on an
uphill gradient requiring intervention.
PSM then maintains the brake pressure
at all four wheels to prevent the vehicle
from moving in the opposite direction.
Airbags.
The 911 Carrera models offer advanced
airbag technology in the form of full-size
driver and front passenger airbags, which
are inflated in t wo stages depending
on the severit y and t ype of accident (e.g.
frontal or offset frontal). In less serious
accidents, the airbags are only partially
inflated, thereby minimising discomfort
to the occupants. In addition to the central airbag control
unit on the transmission tunnel, a pair of
impact sensors are located near the
headlights. This allows a crash to be
detected and evaluated not just sooner,
but with even greater accuracy.
Porsche Side Impact Protection
System (POSIP).
Coupé or Cabriolet, the 911 models

are equipped as standard with the
Porsche Side Impact Protection System
(POSIP). It comprises side impact
protection elements in the doors and t wo airbags on each side. An integral
thorax airbag is located in each seat side
bolster, while the door panels each
contain an upwards-inflating head airbag.
Each thorax airbag has a volume of
10 litres and each head airbag 15 litres,
ensuring excellent protection in the event
of a side impact.
Cabriolet roll-over protection concept.
Despite their low weight, the 911 Carrera

Cabriolet models have exemplary
torsional rigidit y and flexural strength.
Body flexing is minimal even on irregular
road surfaces.
Increased protection is provided by
an automatically deploying roll-over
protection system if the car were to
overturn. Two spring-loaded roll-over
bars are neatly incorporated behind
the rear seats. The roll- over sensor
continuously monitors the car’s pitch
and roll, contact with the road, as
well as lateral and longitudinal forces.
If the car were to overturn, the roll- over
bars would be deployed instantly.

An opera in a world of soap operas.

Burmester
® High-End Surround Sound System.
When t wo iconic German manufacturers
join forces, the result is special. We’re
referring to Porsche and Berlin -based
Burmester
®, one of the most respected
manufacturers of high-end audio equip -
ment worldwide, and the Burmester
®
High
-End Surround Sound System. The
technologies behind the system are
based on the finest premium home audio
systems Burmester
® has to offer. The
system owes its eminence to count less
details, and one goal: perfection in
sound.
The system has 12 amplifier channels
with a total output of 821 wat ts,
12 loudspeakers including an active
subwoofer with 300 -wat t class D amplifier, a total diaphragm surface area
of more than 1,340 cm
2, and a frequency
response of 35 Hz to 20 kHz.
In the 911 models, the Burmester
® system
uses the patented integral subwoofer,
which replaces the familiar separate
subwoofer and loudspeaker arrangement
of other systems. This saves weight and
has a beneficial impact on acoustic
performance.
Crossover technology has been carried
over more or less unmodified from the
home audio sector. Analogue and digital
filters have been optimally defined for
their new installation location and finely
tuned after extensive in-car audio testing.

The t weeters are ribbon-based air
motion transformers (AMT) and ensure
unmistakably fine, clear and undistorted
high-frequency sound reproduction with
excellent level stability. All loudspeaker
housings are perfectly matched and
deliver superior bass foundation, defi -
nition and impulse accuracy. As yet
unequalled in the 911, the result is a
natural and richly textured spatial sound
even at top volume.
The pure, sport y design with galvanised
surrounds and Burmester
® logos on
selected loudspeakers make it clear that
the appeal of the Burmester
® High - End
Surround Sound System is as much about the visual as it is the audio. Typically
Porsche.
Cue the encore.

Environment
Since 1963, we’ve defined the 911 in terms of sporty performance.
And we’ve scrutinised it daily for its efficiency-enhancing potential.

Porsche and the environment.
We’ve already spoken about our
contribution to motorsport. To be more
precise, about our responsibility for the
future of motorsport. We meet this
responsibility with intelligent technology,
unconventional ideas and optimum
performance.
Our approach to environmental protection
is no different. In an era of intensifying
debate about global climate change and
CO
2 emissions, every automotive manu -
facturer is asking what it has to offer
right now. Our answer has long been the
same: excellent performance at the
same time as greater efficiency. Porsche has managed to reduce fuel

consumption across all model ranges
by a double- digit percentage compared
with the respective previous model even
though performance has been increased.
This is made possible by an efficient
drive concept (e.g. DFI and VarioCam
Plus), lightweight construction, optimised
aerodynamics and low rolling resistance.
The environmental management team
at the Porsche Development Centre
in Weissach aims to demonstrate a high
level of environmental responsibility.
Here, technological developments are
carried out with environmental protection in mind. The goal is to enhance perfor
-
mance – but, where possible, not at the
expense of the environment. We achieve
this goal with Intelligent Performance, as
epitomised by the 911.

2 emissions and efficiency class, please refer to pages 141/143.

Environment
Exhaust emission control.
Vehicles manufactured by Porsche
demonstrate that even high-performance
sports cars can achieve moderate
fuel consumption and exhaust emission
values in their respective category.
This is achieved, on the one hand, through
the use of fuel- efficient technologies such
as auto start /stop, thermal management,
electrical system recuperation, direct fuel
injection, VarioCam Plus and, in conjunction
with optional PDK, coasting mode.
On the other hand, cataly tic converters
developed for the 911 provide efficient
emission control.
The stereo Lambda control circuitry
controls and monitors each cylinder bank
separately. For each exhaust tract,
oxygen sensors regulate the composition
of the exhaust gas, while another Lambda
sensor on each cylinder bank monitors
pollutant conversion in the respective
catalytic converter.

Fuel economy and recycling.
Intelligent lightweight construction has
been fundamental to the Porsche identit y
since 1948, for both technical and
ecological reasons. This forms the basis
for achieving low fuel consumption
values in conjunction with outstanding
performance.
On the technical side, we use a high
proportion of aluminium, magnesium,
plastics and super-high-strength sheet
steel. The materials used have been
selected for their ability to withstand
load, yet they are considerably lighter
than conventional steel. On the ecological side, all materials used
are meticulously selected. All synthetic
components are easily recyclable and each
material is labelled to facilitate its separa
-
tion for recycling. The reduction in the
number of plastic variants helps to ensure
more efficient recycling. Recycled plastics
are used where they meet our exacting
technical requirements.
In short, the 911 is around 95 %
recoverable.

In addition, Porsche uses a high propor -
tion of environmentally friendly water-
based paints. For us, environmental
protection does not begin at the end of
a vehicle’s life. It starts at the planning
and development stage.
Fuel.
All Porsche models – including the 911 –
are designed to operate on fuels with an
ethanol content of up to 10 %, e.g. ‘E10’.
Ethanol has a positive impact on the CO
2
balance since the plants grown for the
production of this biofuel also absorb
CO
2 from the atmosphere.
The release of hydrocarbons from the
fuel system has been minimised thanks,
in no small part, to the active carbon
filter and the multilayered material from
which the fuel tank is made. All fuel lines
are made from multilayered plastic, steel
or aluminium.

2 emissions and efficiency class, please refer to pages 141/143.
