The sound of a Porsche is a unique char
-
acteristic, and we’re not referring only to
the engine. The optional BOSE
® Surround
Sound System was specially developed for
the 911 and is therefore perfectly tuned
to the car’s specific interior acoustics.
It has a total output of 445 wat ts and
comprises 8 amplifier channels, 12 loud -
speakers and a patented integral 200 -
watt active subwoofer. The combined
effect is a balanced acoustic pat tern that
transforms your 911 into a fast-moving
concert hall. The BOSE
® Surround Sound System
enables audio playback of DVDs and
is thus able to make full use of the
impressive sound spectrum of 5.1 digital
recordings. Of course, you can still play
other audio sources, such as CDs and
MP3s, in stereo or, at the push of a but -
ton, in one of the virtual surround modes
generated by BOSE
® Centerpoint® 2.
The BOSE
®- patented AudioPilot®
noise compensation technology
uses a microphone to continuously
measure the ambient noise inside the vehicle and adapts music playback
instantly and automatically so that

a consistent sound is maintained –
whatever the driving conditions.
The result is a balanced, faithfully
reproduced sound and captivating
360° acoustic experience.
Cue the applause.
Character is conveyed by a clear voice,
not a loud one.

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 - ef ficient 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, newly developed
cataly tic converters provide ef ficient
emission control.
The stereo Lambda control circuitr y
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

cataly tic converter.

Fuel economy and recycling.
Intelligent light weight 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 ef ficient recycling. Recycled plastics
are used where they meet our exacting
technical requirements.
In short, the new 911 is around 95 %
recyclable.
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 new
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.
For fuel consumption and CO
2 emissions please refer to page 129.

you need to express individuality.

Personalisation options.

There are many ways to explore your

there is a number by which it will forever
be epitomised: 911.
