When you know your strengths,
it’s easy to acquire new ones.

The new 911 Carrera 4.
One thing is for certain. When it comes
to finding your own strengths, it always
helps to know who you are and where
you come from. Where the 911 is con­
cerned, we call this Porsche identit y.
The immense power that is embodied in
this strong identit y is immediately apparent
in the new all ­wheel ­drive 911 Carrera 4.
Its enhanced Porsche Traction Management
(PTM) converts power directly into motion.
Not in a heav y ­handed way, but intelligently.
Sensors control the rotational speeds of
all four wheels, the vehicle’s lateral and
longitudinal acceleration and the steering
angle. In this way, the active all ­wheel drive can continually respond to different
driving situations and precisely distribute
drive forces bet ween the front and rear
axles. Tuned to provide even more poised
and balanced handling during performance
driving, PTM quickly and clearly
demon ­
strates, especially in the wet and snow,
what we at Porsche understand by traction.
Expressed in simple terms, the new
911 Carrera 4 is self ­assured. An
assuredness that has been assisted by
engineering and aesthetic details such as
the wider body – the rear wings are 44 mm
wider than those of the Carrera 911 – the
295 mm wide rear t yres, the special air intakes, the illuminated rear light strip
with taillights and parking light function,
and distinctive sideskirts.
One of its inherent strengths is, of course,
its engine: the 3.4 ­litre flat ­six power unit
delivers 257 kW (350 hp) at 7,400 rpm
and accelerates the new 911 Carrera 4
from 0 to 62 mph in just 4.9 seconds.
Top speed is 177 mph. One strength
may possibly come as a surprise: by

downsizing the engine, it has been possible
to reduce the fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions by up to 15 % compared with
the previous model.
For fuel consumption and CO
2 emissions, please refer to pages 139/141.
Strength | The new 911 Carrera 4
Let ’s now bring the power of identit y
to bear on the road. With the aid of the
7 ­speed manual transmission or the
optional PDK. Both feature sports ratios
for gears 1 to 6 and a long ­ratio 7th
gear for fuel efficiency.
The 911 has many strengths. The new
911 Carrera 4, with its superlative traction,
dynamic performance and safet y, has
acquired even more. Why not take your
seat behind the wheel and make these
strengths your own?

Switchbacks, hairpins, zigzags, S-bends...
There are countless reasons for having intelligent all-wheel drive.
The new 911 Carrera 4S.
Steadfastness. Another apparent Porsche
contradiction. But whilst it ’s true that
sports cars are all about movement, about
surging forwards, it ’s even more impor­
tant to stay calm at all times, to act with
composure and never rashly. So it ’s re ­
assuring that you can rely on the handling
characteristics of the new 911 Carrera 4S.
Particularly dependable is the enhanced
Porsche Traction Management (PTM)
active all­wheel­drive system, especially
when driving the car at the limits of per­
formance. To achieve this, our engineers
have travelled right to the physical
boundaries – and extended them.
PTM now ensures that the car is even
more poised and balanced and really
comes into its own when adopting
a sport y driving st yle or travelling in
extreme weather conditions.
At the rear, the car is the personification
of road holding, with its 44 mm wider
body, wider track and road­hugging
305 mm wide rear wheels. The seamless
horizontal taillight strip continues the
same st yling language. The all­wheel­
drive model is also recognisable from the
front thanks to its dynamically accentuat­
ed cooling air intakes in the front end. Though the car is practically at one with
the ground, it cannot keep still. This is
unsurprising when it is powered by a
3.8­litre engine developing 294 kW
(400 hp) at 7,400 rpm. When combined
with Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK),
this power unit can accelerate the car to
62 mph in just 4.3 seconds. And contin­
ue up to a maximum speed of 184 mph.
This hasn’t come at the expense of fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions either.
Figures for the new 911 Carrera 4S are
up to 13 % lower than those of its prede­
cessor. Fuel­efficient technologies, such
as electrical system recuperation, auto
start /stop – both fit ted as standard – and
the ‘coasting’ function of PDK, prove that
Porsche is continually resolving conflict­
ing aims through Intelligent Performance.
Where safety is concerned, the mono­
bloc fixed brake calipers at the front
have six pistons instead of four, whilst
the brake pads are 10 % larger. The
result is even shorter braking distances.
Proof that, at Porsche, safet y is an
integral part of performance, not its
polar opposite.
Steadfast through and through.
Corner after corner.

2 emissions, please refer to pages 139/141.

| Transmission
It is possible to have a lot of power and
yet not be able to move any thing. Only
by using your power intelligently will you
truly progress – and with consummate
ease.
Enhanced Porsche Traction Management
(PTM) is standard on all 911 Carrera
all ­wheel ­drive models. It is an active all ­
wheel ­drive system with an electronically
variable map ­controlled multi ­plate clutch,
automatic brake differential (ABD) and
anti ­slip regulation (ASR). Drive power is distributed bet ween the
permanently driven rear axle and the
front axle by means of the electronically
variable multi
­plate clutch.
The status of the vehicle is continuously
monitored so that it is possible to respond
to different driving situations. Sensors
are used to collect a range of data, includ ­
ing the rotational speed of all four wheels,

the lateral and longitudinal acceleration
of the car and the current steering angle. If, for example, the rear wheels begin

to lose traction under acceleration, a
greater proportion of the drive power
is automatically transmit ted to the front
axle by a more positive engagement of
the multi ­plate clutch. In addition, ASR
prevents wheel spin by adapting the
engine’s power output. During cornering,
the optimal level of drive power is dis­
tributed to the front wheels to ensure
excellent lateral stability.

In conjunction with Porsche Stability

Management (PSM), PTM helps to ensure
the perfect distribution of drive power for
optimum traction in most road scenarios,
whether on long straights, through tight
corners, or on surfaces with different
friction coefficients.
Far better than a power struggle
is power interplay.

Wheels.
The 911 Carrera models are equipped
with 19­inch Carrera wheels as standard.
These are light weight alloys featuring a
classic sport y design. Tyre sizes are
235/40 ZR 19 and 285/35 ZR 19 at the
front and rear, respectively. All ­wheel ­
drive models are fit ted with even wider
295/35 ZR 19 t yres at the rear. The S models are equipped with light
­
alloy 20­inch Carrera S wheels as
standard. The visual effect is sport y and
dynamic. The t yres are slightly wider
to cope with the increased power output
of these models: 245/35 ZR 20 at the
front, 295/30 ZR 20 at the rear. All ­wheel ­
drive models have 305/30 ZR 20 t yres
at the rear.
The large t yre size improves both ride
comfort and track performance. Rolling
resistance, dry braking distances and t yre
weight are all comparatively low, thereby
helping to reduce fuel consumption.
A selection of 20 ­inch wheels is available
in our range of options.Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM).
Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM) is avail­
able on request. This safet y system sends
warnings to the on ­board computer’s
display screen in the event of low t yre
pressure or a gradual or sudden loss
of pressure. The individual pressures
in all four t yres can be displayed in the
instrument cluster.
Porsche Stability Management (PSM).
As standard, the 911 Carrera models are
equipped with enhanced Porsche Stability
Management (PSM), which maintains sta ­
bilit y even at the limits of dynamic driving
performance. Sensors continuously moni ­
tor the direction, speed, yaw velocit y and
lateral acceleration of the car. Using this
information, PSM is able to calculate the actual direction of travel at any given
moment. If the car begins to oversteer or
understeer, PSM applies selective braking
on individual wheels to restore stabilit y.
Under acceleration on wet or low ­grip
road surfaces, PSM improves traction
using the automatic brake differential
(ABD) and anti ­slip regulation (ASR).
When the SPORT PLUS mode of the
optional Sport Chrono Package is selected,
the PSM threshold is raised to allow a
sportier driving st yle.
For an even more dynamic experience,
you always have the option to deactivate
PSM. It is automatically reactivated,
for your safet y, only if you brake harder
and either of the front wheels (in SPORT
PLUS mode, both of the front wheels) requires ABS assistance. ABS and ABD,
however, remain active at all times.
PSM therefore offers a high level of

driving stability and safety combined
with extraordinary agilit y. It ’s an
apparent contradiction in terms, but an
intrinsic part of the Porsche identit y.

Electric parking brake.
The 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 to prevent the vehicle
from moving in the opposite direction.
Airbags.
The 911 Carrera 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).
Coupé or Cabriolet, the 911 models are
equipped as standard with the Porsche
Side Impact Protection System (POSIP).
It comprises side impact protection ele ­
ments in the doors and t wo airbags on each side. An integral thorax
airbag is
located in each seat side bolster,
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 pro ­
tection in the event of a side impact.
Cabriolet roll-over protection concept.
Despite their low weight, the 911 Carrera
Cabriolet models have exemplary torsional
rigidit y and flexural strength. Body flexing
is minimal, even on the most poorly sur ­
faced roads.
Increased protection is provided by an
automatically deploying roll ­over protec ­
tion system if the car were to overturn.
Two spring ­loaded roll ­over bars are
neatly incorporated behind the rear
seats. The roll ­over sensor continuously
monitors the car’s pitch and roll, contact
with the road, as well as lateral and
longitudinal forces. If the car were to
overturn, the roll ­over bars would be
deployed instantly.

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 sports car. 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,
carbon or mahogany. 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 right­hand
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.
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.
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 the steering wheel, lights, wipers, air

conditioning, door locks, PCM, and
instrument cluster.
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,
have a firmer, sportier padding and offer
even bet ter lateral support. The backrest
shell is finished in Silver Grey.
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, fou r ­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
fore/aft adjustment and four ­way lumbar
support. The steering column is also
electrically adjustable.
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, PCM, and instrument cluster.
Sports bucket seats.*
Sports bucket seats featuring a folding
backrest, integral thorax airbag and
manual fore/aft adjustment are available
as optional equipment. The seat shells
are made from glass ­ and carbon­fibre
reinforced plastic (CFRP) with a carbon
surface finish.

Seat heating and ventilation.
Seat heating is available as an option
for all seats (except for sports bucket
seats). Seats are heated in the squab,
the backrest and, for the front seats,
the side bolsters.
The ideal basis for any relationship:
Support as well as freedom.

Seating.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 comforta ­
ble for a sports car and the shelf behind
offers additional storage space. With
the backrests folded down, the luggage
compartment volume in the 911 Carrera
Coupé models increases to 260 litres
and, with a capacit y of 160 litres availa ­
ble, the 911 Carrera Cabriolet models
offer plent y of space for luggage, too.
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.

Slide/tilt sunroof.
The electrically adjustable slide/tilt sun
­
roof is available as optional equipment
for all 911 Carrera models. It opens out ­
wards so that it does not interfere with
headroom. Another advantage of the
novel design is the large aperture for
increased driving pleasure under the
open sky.
The two ­position net ­type wind deflector
protects against draught and further
reduces wind noise.
Glass slide/tilt sunroof.
The electrically adjustable slide/tilt sun ­
roof is also available in tinted single­
glazed safet y glass. An integral electric
sunblind provides shade from unwanted
bright light. It is available in five different
colours. The design, headroom and aper ­
ture of the glass roof are identical to
those of the regular slide/tilt sunroof. The
only difference is that, even when closed,
the glass sunroof still gives you that
open ­to ­the ­sky feeling.
ParkAssist.
Park Assist is fit ted as standard in the
911 Carrera Cabriolet models and is
available as an option for the 911 Carrera
Coupé models. Featuring four inconspicuous
sensors in the rear end, the system
audibly alerts the driver to the presence
of obstacles detected behind the vehicle.
An intermittent warning tone increases in
rapidit y as the obstacle is approached.
An enhanced version of Park Assist, with
four sensors in the front end, is available
as an option. The audible alert is supple ­
mented by a visual warning in the central
display screen, which shows a graphical
representation of the vehicle from over ­
head.
Exterior mirrors and rear-view mirror.
Electrically adjustable exterior mirrors
are fitted as standard. Electrically folding
exterior mirrors with courtesy lighting
on both sides of the
vehicle are available
as an option. By
illuminating the area in front of the doors, they make it easier to
find your way in the dark.
An auto
­dimming function for the rear ­
view mirror and exterior mirrors, with
an integrated rain sensor for the wind ­
screen wipers, is available as an option.
Luggage compartment.
The luggage compartment volume in the
911 models is 135 litres – 125 litres on
the 911 Carrera all ­wheel ­drive models.
The luggage compartment is fully trimmed
in scratch ­resistant materials.
Roof transport system.
Available as an option for the Coupé
models, the roof transport system in
aluminium is aerodynamically efficient,
very light weight and easy to fit. A range
of at tachments is available, such as a
roof box, a bike carrier or a ski/snow ­
board carrier. Maximum roof load is
75 kg.
