Interior design
Sporty ergonomics for ordinary driving.
Extraordinary comfort for sporty driving.

Interior design.
At Porsche, we don’t build everyday
sportscars, we build sportscars for every -
day use. How? By understanding that
great agilit y and maximum comfort are
not mutually exclusive but are, in fact,
aspects of a harmonious overall concept.
This is especially true of the interior
of the new 911. Sportiness, functionality
and high-quality materials combine to
form a cohesive whole that is conducive
to dynamic driving, even during everyday
use.
What this means becomes clear the
moment you get in. The extended wheel -
base now offers 25 mm more leg room
in the front than in previous 911 models. Sportiness in harmony with comfort is

the theme which is reflected in the clever
ergonomics that characterise the entire
interior design. The materials used, the
layout of the controls and their operating
logic belong to a new generation of
sportscar. Another new design for the
new 911 is the elevated centre console.
Its intelligent operating concept follows
a clear principle of direct simplicity.
A classic 911 feature is the arrangement
of the five circular instruments with the
rev counter in the middle. A new addition
is the instrument cluster featuring a high-
resolution 4.6-inch full VGA TFT colour
display for viewing on-board computer,
audio system or navigation information. Fit ted as standard, the Sports seats

combine even greater comfort with
racing-st yle support and now feature
4 -way electric adjustment. The new
automatic climate control with zonal
temperature controls for driver and
front passenger also comes as standard.
Also new is the optional light design
package for the foot wells, storage
compartments, rear compartment and
overhead console. As ever, we offer
an extensive selection of interior colours
and materials, such as carbon, leather,
wood or aluminium.
Acoustics are an integral part of the
concept, particularly the engine sound.
Available as an option is the Burmester
® High-End Surround Sound System.

Optimised for the new 911 Carrera models,
it features 12 loudspeakers and a total
output of 821 wat ts for a perfect spatial
sound.
The new 911 proves that apparent oppo -
sites, such as st yle and engineering or
comfort and performance, can go hand
in hand. For us, there is no contradiction
and certainly no need for compromise.
After all, a strong personalit y does not
deny the existence of opposites, it unites
them.

Climate control.
Both 911 models feature t wo -zone auto
-
matic climate control as standard with an
enhanced ventilation effect and separate
temperature controls for the driver and
front passenger. The available air condi -
tioning modes are gentle, normal and
strong.
An active carbon filter traps particles,
pollen and odours and an automatic
air-recirculation function permanently
monitors air quality, reduces humidity
and switches from fresh to recirculated
air when required. A demister function keeps the windows
clear in cold weather. In warmer weather,
a solar sensor helps the climate control

to detect strong sunlight and automatically
compensate for the comfort of both the
driver and front passenger.
HomeLink®
(programmable garage door opener).
As an option, it is possible to have
a programmable garage door opener
integrated into the overhead console.
At the push of a but ton, it controls up
to three different garage doors, lighting
systems or alarm systems.
‘Welcome Home’ lighting.
For convenience, particularly at night, the
‘Welcome Home’ lighting function auto -
matically switches on the LED day time
running lights for a defined period
whenever the vehicle is opened or closed
using the key remote.
A customisable delayed switch - of f timer
keeps the daytime running lights, the
taillights and, where applicable, the
courtesy lights switched on until you
reach your front door.
Cruise control.
This automatic speed control function
is available as an option. For greater
driver comfort on long stretches of road,
cruise control operates in the 30 –240 km/ h
(18–149 mph) speed range and is activated
using a but ton on the steering column
control stalk.
Many things have practical qualities.
Even more have a sporty function.
And some are just extremely convenient.

Additional comfort and convenience features.ParkAssist.
The optional Park Assist features four
inconspicuous sensors in the rear end.
The system audibly alerts the driver
to the presence of obstacles detected
behind the vehicle. An intermit tent warn -
ing tone increases in rapidity as the
obstacle is approached.
An enhanced version of Park Assist,
with four sensors in the front end, is
available on request. The audible alert
is supplemented by a visual warning
in the central display screen, which
shows a graphical representation of
the vehicle from overhead.
Light design package.
The optional light design package is both
practical and aesthetically appealing.

It comprises dimmable LEDs in the door
panels, overhead console, footwells,
ignition lock and rear compartment.
