Engines
To give more and take less.
That’s Porsche engineering.
Engines.
You could ask whether the sportscar is
still relevant. It would be a good question,
but you might as well ask the same of
dreams.
The answer to both questions lies in
the future or, to be more precise, in the
future of the sportscar. In the new 911,
the future has already begun. The highly
ef ficient, state - of-the -art engines make
a considerable contribution to reducing
fuel consumption, but their sound is still
unmistakably Porsche. The new 911 engines are also unmistaka
-
bly sport y thanks to the new SPORT
but ton fit ted as standard. At the push
of a button, the engine becomes tuned
for a sharper response and engine
dynamics that are even more direct.
The 3.4-litre engine of the new
911 Carrera demonstrates, therefore,
that performance and efficiency need
not be mutually exclusive. Rather, the
downsized engine capacity and increased
maximum torque are the intelligent basis
by which power output can be increased
in an environmentally acceptable and
sustainable way. Fuel consumption and CO2 emissions have been reduced
by up to 16 % compared with the previous
model.
In their search for improved efficiency,
our engineers analysed an extensive
series of engine components. Answers
were found, including rapid heating
of the engine and gearbox by the new
thermal management after an engine
start, optimised air induction and the
extremely effective direct fuel injection
(DFI).
The same principle applies to the 3.8-litre
engine in the 911 Carrera S. There has been no change in displacement since
the previous model, but power output has
been increased while fuel consumption
has been reduced by up to 14 %.
Weight is critical to efficiency. This is
why the engines have a light-alloy
construction, which makes them light -
weight and structurally rigid for improved
fuel economy and a long life.
The engine is the intelligent core of our
identit y. What else could the ‘Dr. Ing.’ in
our company name possibly stand for?
911 Carrera models: fuel consumption in l/100 km (mpg) urban 13,8 (20.5) –11.2 (25.2) · extra urban 7.1 (39.8) – 6.5 (43.5) · combined 9.5 (29.7) –8.2 (34.4);

DFI delivers fuel directly into the combustion
chamber with millisecond precision. The
spray and cone angles of the new multi-
hole injectors have been optimised for
torque, power output, fuel consumption,
emissions and ef ficient combustion.
With direct injection, the engine manage-
ment system regulates injection timing
individually for each cylinder as well as
the injection rate for each cylinder bank.
This optimises the combustion process
and fuel economy. The system first dif ferentiates
bet ween driver inputs that t ypify normal,
everyday driving and those inputs
that demand maximum performance.
The electronic engine management
system then seamlessly adapts valve
operation to the prevailing conditions.
This results in instant acceleration,
extremely smooth running and an
extraordinary level of tractive power,
but with a comparatively low level of
fuel consumption.
For faster heating of the catalytic converters
after a cold start and optimum torque in
the upper load range, up to three injection
pulses take place per combustion cycle.
DFI improves the internal cooling of
the combustion chamber by having the
mixture prepared directly in the cylinder.
This allows for a higher compression
ratio, which helps to deliver more output
at the same time as enhanced engine
efficiency. Injection is regulated by the
electronic engine management system

and emissions are monitored by the
Lambda sensors, thus helping to protect
the environment.
VarioCam Plus System.
VarioCam Plus is a two-in-one engine
concept for adjusting the intake
camshafts and switching the lift of the
intake valves.

In the 911, there is a point at which all
forces come together. The steering wheel
is the most important inter face bet ween
the driver and the sportscar. This is
why all available steering wheels feature
a high-grip steering wheel rim in smooth-
finish leather and offer outstanding
ergonomics. A full -size airbag is integrated
as st a n d a rd .SportDesign steering wheel.
As with the sports steering wheel, the
optional SportDesign steering wheel
is adjustable for both height and reach
and, thanks to its grip mouldings, it’s
in safe hands – even on the sportiest
of drives.
Sports steering wheel.
The sports steering wheel is fit ted as
standard and adjusts up to 40 mm for
height and up to 60 mm for reach.
The optional multifunction steering
wheel has four function but tons and t wo thumbwheels for convenient operation
of audio, telephone and navigation
functions, TFT display and on-board
computer. On request, the steering
wheel is available in smooth-finish leather,
Aluminium Look, carbon or macassar. In conjunction with PDK, the steering
wheels are equipped with t wo ergonomic
gearshift switches enabling you to
change gear directly from the steering
wheel. With the optional Sport Chrono
Package, the steering wheel also features
a display above the airbag module to
inform you whether the SPORT, SPORT
PLUS and Launch Control functions have
been activated.
SportDesign steering wheel
In conjunction with PDK, the steering
wheel features t wo gearshif t paddles.
These are made from a strong alloy and
are ergonomically located behind the
lef t- and right- hand steering wheel
spokes. Pull the right-hand paddle and
PDK shifts up. Pull the left-hand paddle and PDK shifts down. When PDK has
been combined with the optional Sport
Chrono Package, the left- and right-hand
spokes additionally feature a display
that tells you whether the SPORT, SPORT
PLUS and Launch Control functions have
been activated. Steering wheel heating.
For increased comfort on cold days,
steering wheel heating is available as
an option for the sports steering wheel
and multifunction steering wheels
(only in conjunction with seat heating).
The heating is operated by a but ton
on the rear of the lower steering wheel
spoke.

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.
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, 4 - 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
the steering wheel, lights, wipers, air
conditioning, door locks, optional PCM,
and instrument cluster.
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
have a firmer, sportier padding and offer
even bet ter lateral support. The backrest
shell is finished in Silver Grey.
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,
fore/aft adjustment and 4-way lumbar
support. The steering column is also
electrically adjustable.
Adaptive Sports seat Plus
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, optional PCM, and instru
-
ment cluster.
The ideal basis for any relationship:
Support as well as freedom.
Seating.Seat heating and ventilation.
Seat heating is available as an option for
all seats. Seats are heated in the squab,
the backrest and, for the front seats, the
side bolsters.
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 comfortable
for a sportscar and the shelf behind
offers additional storage space. The back -
rests fold as standard to offer a generous
205 litres of luggage space in the rear.
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.
