Meetings, conferences, business lunches.
How about some leisure in between?

The new 911 Carrera.
In the 21st century, we find ourselves
caught bet ween all kinds of opposites on
a daily basis: bet ween the demands of
our work life and our private life, between
the real world and virtual realit y. How can
they all be reconciled? With a strong iden -
tit y and a sportscar that has incorporated
many contradictory notions since 1963.
Sportiness and everyday practicality are
a prime example. The new 911 Carrera is
equipped as standard with direct fuel
injection (DFI) and VarioCam Plus for high
power, high torque, ef ficient combustion
and, as a result, comparatively low fuel
consumption. Tradition and innovation blend seamlessly
together in the new rear-mounted 3.4-litre
flat-six engine thanks to its downsized
capacity. Despite the reduced displace
-
ment, the engine is capable of delivering
even more power to the road than its
3.6-litre predecessor.
The figures speak for themselves.
The maximum power of 257 kW (350 hp)
is available at 7,400 rpm and the maxi -
mum torque of 390 Nm is generated at
5,600 rpm. Yet, in conjunction with
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK), fuel con -
sumption and CO
2 emissions have been
reduced by 16 %. Even more im pres
sively,
the car accelerates from 0 to 100 km/ h
(0 to 62 mph) in 4.8 seconds and reaches
a top speed of 289 km/ h (179 mph).
The new 911 Carrera generates powerful
forces, which are transmit ted precisely
and directly to the wheels by the new
7-speed manual gearbox. As with the
optional PDK, gears 1 to 6 have a sports
ratio, while 7th gear has a long ratio for
reduced fuel consumption. The SPORT
but ton, which is fit ted as standard, makes
it possible to select an even more respon -
sive engine and transmission setup.
In terms of form and function, the new
single tailpipes are especially imposing
and emit a sound which is t ypically Porsche. The 19-inch Carrera wheels are
fit ted as standard and improve driving
stability and performance.
Sportscar technology as standard, in

the form of black four-piston monobloc
aluminium fixed calipers, Porsche Stability
Management (PSM) and Bi-Xenon head -
lights, shows that sportiness and safety
are not mutually exclusive.
Sport, moderation, everyday practicality
and st yle. Four key themes, one unifying
concept: the 911 Carrera.

Transmission
The long and winding road is where you’d like to be.
Sometimes, it pays to take the direct route.

Transmission.
The new 7-speed manual gearbox.
Pure, direct, precise. Short shif t move -
ments and an optimum transition from
one gear to the next. That ’s exactly what
you would expect of a Porsche manual
gearbox.
What you might not have expected is a
7-speed manual gearbox that combines
a high level of sport y performance with
an equally high level of efficiency and
offers extra comfort for longer journeys. It’s an exceptional innovation, and not
only in the sportscar segment.
The design of this manual gearbox is
based in principle on that of Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK). Gears 1 to 6 have
a sports ratio and top speed is reached
in 6th gear. The additional 7th gear,

however, has a long ratio, which reduces
torque and helps to reduce fuel consump -
tion. Lower engine revs at fast driving
speeds also ensure a high level of com
fort
on long stretches of road. In addition
, a gear indicator in the rev counter reminds
you which gear has been selected. The
upshift indicator in the instrument cluster
helps you actively conserve fuel.
Thanks to the elevated centre console,
the gear lever is within easy reach –

ideal for sport y gear changes.
Whether you select a sporty or comfortable
gear, the way you reach your destination
is in your own hands.

Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK).
Available as an option for the new 911
models is 7-speed PDK, featuring manual
and automatic modes. This double - clutch
transmission has been further refined and
enables extremely fast gear changes with
no interruption in the flow of power, which vastly improves acceleration at the
same time as reducing fuel consumption.
In total, PDK has seven gears at its disposal.
Gears 1 to 6 have a sports ratio and top
speed is reached in 6th gear. 7th gear has
a long ratio and helps to reduce fuel

consumption by keeping engine revs low.
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK)
PDK is essentially t wo gearboxes in one
and thus requires t wo clutches. This
double-clutch arrangement provides an
alternating, non-positive connection
bet ween the t wo half gearboxes and the
engine by means of t wo separate input
shafts.The flow of power from the engine is
transmit ted through one half gearbox and
one clutch at a time, while the next gear
is preselected in the second half gearbox.
During a gear change, therefore, one
clutch simply opens and the other closes
at the same time, enabling gear changes
to take place within milliseconds.
Temperament | Transmission
The effect is instant. Driving feels even
sportier and more dynamic, and agility
is increased. Depending on the gearshift
programme (SPORT button activated
or deactivated), the gear change is opti -
mised for comfort or for sport y driving.With the optional Sport Chrono Package,
PDK is enhanced by the ‘Launch Control’
and ‘motorsport- derived gearshif t strategy’
functions (p. 50). In this way, optimum use is made of the
vehicle’s momentum, allowing it to coast
for longer distances.
For example, you may want to slow down
from 100 km/ h (62 mph) to 80 km/ h
(49 mph) in anticipation of the change of
speed limit ahead. As soon as you release
the accelerator pedal, PDK deselects
the current gear automatically and you
begin to coast in neutral until you have
reached your desired speed. The moment
you engage the accelerator or brake
pedal, PDK selects the appropriate gear
smoothly and seamlessly within a fraction
of a second.
Another way to reduce fuel consumption is
to utilise the coasting function on downhill
gradients that are gentle enough for you
to maintain a constant speed. Efficient on
long journeys, such as on the motorway,
PDK remains ready to respond as swiftly
and precisely as you would expect.
In short, driving in coasting mode makes
a real impact on fuel consumption without
any need for compromise on comfort or
sporty performance.
Coasting.
The ‘coasting’ function available with
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) enables
you to save even more fuel where the
situation allows. The engine is decoupled
from the transmission to prevent
deceleration caused by engine braking.

Electric parking brake.
The new 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 for a brief period to
prevent the vehicle from moving in the
opposite direction.
Airbags.
The new 911 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 far sooner and
with considerably greater accuracy.
Porsche Side Impact Protection
System (POSIP).
The 911 Carrera and 911 Carrera S 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 the seat backrests, 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.
