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

Interior design.
At Porsche, we don’t build everyday
sports cars, we build sports cars for
everyday 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 911. Sportiness, functionality and
high ­quality materials combine to form a
cohesive whole that is conducive to
dynamic driving, even during everyday
use. This becomes clearer the moment you
get in. The longer wheelbase
now of fers
25 mm more leg room in the front than
in previous 911 Carrera models, for
example.
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
sports car. Another new design for the
911 is the ascending 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. The contempo
­
rary instrument cluster featuring a high ­
resolution 4.6 ­inch full VGA TFT colour
display enables the driver to view infor ­
mation from, for example, the new
adaptive cruise control function or the
all ­wheel ­drive display, or to see navi­
gation instructions.
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 911 Carrera model
range, it features 12 loudspeakers and

a total output of 821 wat ts for a perfect
spatial sound.
The 911 proves that apparent opposites,
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.
The 911 models feature t wo
­zone auto ­
matic climate control as standard with
an enhanced ventilation effect and sepa ­
rate temperature controls for the driver
and front passenger. The available air
conditioning 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.
Many things have practical qualities.
Even more have a sporty function.
And some are just extremely convenient.

Additional comfort and convenience features.
Light design package.
The optional light design package is both
practical and aesthetically appealing.
It comprises dimmable LEDs in the over ­
head console and in the areas of the
door pulls, door storage compartments,
front foot wells and rear seats.
‘Welcome Home’ lighting.
For convenience, particularly at night,
the ‘Welcome Home’ lighting function
automatically 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 18–149 mph
speed range and is activated using a but ­
ton on the steering column control stalk.
Adaptive cruise control with Porsche
Active Safe (PAS).
1)
Available as an option, this cruise control
function regulates your speed according
to the distance bet ween your vehicle and
the vehicle in front. A radar sensor moni ­
tors the road ahead up to a distance of
200 m. If you have set a cruising speed
but have begun to gain on the vehicle in front because it is driving more slowly,
this is detected by the radar sensor.
The system now reduces the speed

of your vehicle at a maximum rate of
3.5 m/sec
2 by restricting the throt tle
or gently applying the brakes, until
the distance that you have preset is
maintained. Your vehicle will now
continue at a reduced speed. If the
other vehicle decelerates further, adaptive
cruise control will continue to reduce
your cruising speed – even down to a halt.
For additional safet y, if the system
detects that the distance from the

vehicle in front is decreasing, it will also
prepare your vehicle for braking by
precharging the braking system so that
the brake pads are already in light contact with the brake discs. However,

drivers still have to perform heavier
braking themselves.
As soon as the road ahead clears again,
your vehicle will accelerate back up to
the cruising speed originally set.
If your vehicle approaches the vehicle
in front too quickly, Porsche Active Safe
(PAS) will issue audible and visual warn ­
ings. In addition, the system briefly jerks
the brakes and if necessary initiates
target braking, with any braking pressure
applied by the driver being increased
within certain system limits.
