| The 911 Carrera S
Its identity emerged on the racetrack.
Its home is on the road.

The 911 Carrera S.
Nothing defines us more than our heritage.
It says a lot about who we are. This is
particularly true of the 9 11 Carrera S,
which has all the characteristics you would
expect of a sports car whose origin is
in motorsport.
An elementary component of its DNA, there­
fore, is power in the form of a 3.8 ­litre
engine with direct fuel injection (DFI) and
VarioCam Plus. It delivers 294 kW (400 hp)
at 7,400 rpm, and the maximum torque

of 440 Nm is achieved at 5,600 rpm. In
conjunction with the manual gearbox, the
sprint from 0 to 62 mph is completed in
just 4.5 seconds. Top speed isn’t reached
until 188 mph.
On figures alone, the 9 11 Carrera S
excels, particularly in terms of efficiency.
Fuel consumption and CO
2 emissions
have been reduced by 15 % compared
with the previous model. This has been
possible thanks to the auto start /stop
function, which is available as standard,
and the coasting function in conjunction
with the optional Porsche Doppelkupp­
lung (PDK).
It ’s not difficult to tell where the
911 Carrera S comes from. You can
hear it in the resonant engine sound
and you can see it in the t win tailpipes
in brushed stainless steel and 20 ­inch
Carrera S wheels. You can also feel it, thanks to Porsche
Active Suspension Management (PASM),
which is fit ted as standard, or the optional
PASM sports suspension with even
sport­
ier aerodynamics and the ride height low ­
ered by 20 mm. Or the optional Sport
Chrono Package and dynamic engine
mounts. Available as standard, Porsche
Torque Vectoring (PTV), or Porsche
Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus) in con ­
junction with the optional PDK, increase
traction and driving stability. Porsche
Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC), the ac ­
tive roll stabilisation system, is available
as an option and improves agilit y, com ­
fort and safet y. On the subject of safet y, the brakes at
the front of the 911 Carrera S come
equipped with monobloc fixed calipers
with six, instead of four, pistons for im
­
proved braking performance and a short ­
er braking distance. Bi ­Xenon headlights
are standard and the Porsche Dynamic
Light System (PDLS) is available as an
option.
There is no doubt. The 9 11 Carrera S
knows its roots, and embraces them with
efficiency, power and sporty performance.
For fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, please refer to pages 143/145.

Control, discipline, precision.

At Porsche, we take driving pleasure very seriously.

S a f e t y.
Brakes.
Another crucial piece of the Porsche
identit y is the brakes. We value them as
highly as we do our engines and chassis.
They set standards for deceleration and
stabilit y, and give the driver the reassur ­
ance needed to push the car to the limits
of its performance.
The 911 Carrera base models are fit ted
front and rear with anodised black four ­
piston aluminium monobloc fixed calipers.
All brake discs have a diameter of 330 mm.
On the S models, we have fit ted larger
brakes and more brake pistons to cope
with the higher engine power of these
models. Consequently, they feature red
six­piston monobloc aluminium fixed
brake calipers at the front and four ­piston
aluminium monobloc fixed calipers at
the rear. The brake disc diameter is
340 mm at the front and 330 mm at the
rear. The results are enhanced braking
performance and stability.
On all models, the brake calipers have
an enclosed monobloc construction.
This makes them tougher but lighter and enables a more rapid response and
release of the brake even under extreme
loads. The pedal travel is short and

the biting point precise. The brake discs
are cross ­drilled for better performance
in the wet.
Other benefits of the standard braking
system include the anti ­lock braking
system (ABS), designed to keep deceler ­
ation constant. Pedal effort is reduced
and braking response improved by an
8 ­/9 ­inch tandem vacuum brake booster.
In the S models, brake disc cooling is
further enhanced by modified air spoilers.

| Comfor t
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.
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.
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.
Adaptive cruise control with Porsche
Active Safe (PAS).
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 by applying the brakes appropriate
to the prevailing situation until the dis ­
tance 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.
