engine PORSCHE 911 CARRERA 2011 6.G Information Manual

6667
Our identity is found under the bonnet,
in the design and behind the steering wheel.

Comfort.
Driving a 911 is first and foremost about
the feel of the road in the original, unadul -
terated and direct sense. Is it possible,
then, to mention the 911 and comfort in
the same breath? To speak of systems
that make driving ‘more agreeable’, or of
materials that feel ‘pleasant ’ to the touch?
Good question.
In reality, however, should anyone really
be forced to choose one over the other?
Let ’s introduce ourselves to the concept
of sport y comfort – dynamic performance
that maintains composure even when
pushed to the extreme.
Interior.
Engineering and st yle – and Porsche
identit y on the inside, as demonstrated by
the new elevated centre console. In t ypical
Porsche fashion, the use of form follows
a basic principle: focus on the driver. This
is why the distance bet ween the gear lever
or selector and steering wheel is extremely
short and the operating logic, such as that
of the two-zone air conditioning system
or the suspension set tings, is clear and
uncomplicated. You shouldn’t have to
browse one submenu after another. You
should instead be able to concentrate
on what ’s important: the road.
All our materials are high qualit y. Sport y
and elegant leather is used, for example,
on the steering wheel rim, on the door
handles and armrests and on the partial
leather seats, which are fit ted as standard.
Alcantara has proven its worth in motor -
sport and is used as standard for the
rooflining.
In addition to the choice of Black, Plati -
num Grey, Luxor Beige and Yachting Blue
for the interior, there is a wide range of
other personalisation options available,
including two-tone colour combinations
or special colours and materials such as
carbon, aluminium or high-quality wood.

Engineering that takes you forward:

Porsche Communication Management
(PCM) with navigation module and a
high-resolution 7-inch colour touch -
screen. PCM is your control centre for
audio, navigation and communication
functions.Instruments.
Sporty not kitsch, practical not fanciful.
The dial faces of the five circular instru -
ments have one purpose above all: to
provide information. They do so efficiently
and accurately. Their st yling is t ypically
Porsche with the rev counter exactly
where you would expect it to be: in the
middle.
Another element of the Porsche identit y
is sound. The Sound Package Plus offer
outstanding performance with a total

output of 235 wat ts. Available as an
option is the BOSE
® Surround Sound
System with a total output of 445 wat ts.
In short, it delivers authentic audio
playback combined with an impressive
spatial sound. No system promises such high standards
in the 911, and fulfils them, as the option
-
al High-End Surround Sound System from
Burmester
®, the bespoke manufacturer
based in Berlin and one of the most
respected premium audio manufacturers
worldwide. With a total output of 821 wat ts,
it ensures an incredible audio experience. Our patented integral subwoofer enhances
the bass performance of both optional
sound systems and also saves weight.
Typically Porsche.
Ergonomics, st yle and sound. Sportscar
technology, intelligently combined.
The instrument cluster is new with a high-
resolution 4.6-inch TFT colour screen.

It provides you with a continuous stream
of data from the on-board computer,
such as speed, trip mileage, journey time
or current fuel consumption. It also dis -
plays the navigation system map, delivers
various warnings, including alerts from the Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM)

system, and reminds you of your selected
communication and audio settings.

Porsche Entry & Drive.
With the optional Porsche Entry & Drive,
you can leave your car key in your pocket.
As soon as you touch the door handle or
the Porsche Crest on the luggage com
-
partment lid, 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.
Porsche Vehicle Tracking System
(PV TS).
The Porsche Vehicle Tracking System
(PV TS) is fit ted as standard on all 911
models. The system
makes it possible to
locate a stolen vehicle across most of
the countries of Europe. The preparation
package includes a special wiring loom
and a
tilt sensor for the alarm system.
Audio and communication in the new 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.

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.

Motorsport
On the racetrack, we’re fiercely committed.
Not least to the future.

Motorsport.
How does one book one’s place in motor -
sport history? By finishing that crucial
one hundredth of a second faster than
the competition, or a whole lap ahead of
the rest of the field? Either way, victory is
sweet. At Porsche, however, one goal
mat ters above all: turning to the next
chapter and shaping the future of motor -
sport using intelligent technologies and
unconventional ideas with the incentive of
increased power output and enhanced
efficiency, as well as the abilit y to incor -
porate these innovations into cars engi -
neered for the road.918 RSR race laboratory.
How powerful can a hybrid be? How sus-
tainable can a racecar be? If hybrid sports-
car
technology is to be taken seriously, we
believe it must prove its worth in the test -
ing environment of tomorrow – on the race-
track. The 918 RSR succeeds, lap after lap.
The drive system comprises a high-revving
combustion engine, two electric machines
on the front axle and enhanced fly wheel
energy storage derived from the 911 GT3
R Hybrid.
What did we wish to achieve? Extremely
high performance, of course, but we also
wanted a glimpse of the future. A lit tle bit
sooner and a lit tle bit faster.
911 GT3 R Hybrid.
It took a whole year’s work for just one
day: the 24 Hours of Nürburgring in
2010. With the 911 GT3 R Hybrid, our
engineers sent a 911 onto the track
equipped for the first time ever with
three drive units.
The principle is to recover unused kinetic
energy. Energy is stored by a fly wheel
accumulator that spins at up to 40,000
rpm. After braking, t wo electric motors
on the front axle enable the driver to
draw this power to boost acceleration out
of corners or for overtaking. In short: he
who brakes, wins. It is a principle that the 911 GT3 R Hybrid
brought to the front of the field at the
Nürburgring in 2010, where it remained
until the 23rd hour. Engine failure may
have forced it to retire from this particu
-
lar race, but this was not the end.
The 911 GT3 R Hybrid since went on to
compete in a number of major endurance
trials around the world. In Zhuhai in the
same year, it was recognised as the
fastest and most economical GT vehicle
in the field.
We don’t need to win to make progress.
The idea alone motivates us to achieve
greater things. Intelligent Per formance.
