The 911 GT2 |Environment
Here, all technological developments
are carried out with environmental
protection in mind. The aim: pure
performance – but not at the
expense of the environment.
You can find more information
about environmental matters in the
separate brochure ‘Porsche and
the Environment’, or on our website
www.porsche.com.
Exhaust emission control.
The 911 GT2 easily meets the strin-
gent emissions standards for the
EU4 regulations in Europe and
LEV II regulations in the USA. This
demonstrates that even high per-
formance sports cars can achieve
moderate emissions values in their
respective categories. The 911 GT2
is not only one of the most power-
ful cars around, but also one of the
cleanest. One pair of sensors is
used to monitor the oxygen levels
in each of the twin exhaust tracts.
An additional pair of sensors* –
again, one on each tract – is
located downstream from the cat-alytic converters. This information
is used by the engine management
system to monitor the efficiency of
the catalysts.
Fuel.
The current Porsche sportscar
model range is already compatible
with fuels that have an ethanol
content of up to 10 %. A ‘biofuel’
made from naturally replenishing
materials, ethanol has a positive
impact on the carbon dioxide bal-
ance since the plants grown for its
production also absorb carbon
dioxide from the atmosphere.
Fuel system.
In the fuel supply system, we’ve
minimised the evaporation of
hydrocarbons. This is achieved
through a combination of active
carbon filter and special fuel-tank
coating. All fuel lines are made
from aluminium, while those
carrying vapours are made from
multi-layer plastic.
* Not featured in markets with leaded fuel.
Noise.
The 911 GT2 complies with all
noise regulations in the respective
markets. Rather than resorting
to engine encapsulation, we’ve
eliminated noise at source. All that
remains are the powerful acoustics
you’d expect from a thoroughbred
Porsche.
Servicing.
Longer service intervals are not
only easier on resources, they also
reduce ownership costs.
For service intervals of the 911 GT2,
please refer to the price list.
In an era of intensifying debate
about CO
2emissions, every auto-
motive manufacturer is considering
how to deal with the question of
fuel consumption. Our answer has
long been the same: maximum
efficiency.
Porsche reduces the CO2emissions
of its vehicles annually by an aver-
age of 1.7 %. In relation to engine
power, Porsche is already among
those manufacturers achieving the
lowest CO
2emissions. This has
been achieved through an efficient
drive concept, optimised aero-dynamics, low rolling resistance
and lightweight construction.
This high degree of environmental
responsibility is clearly demonstrated
by our approach to environmental
management at the Porsche
development centre in Weissach.
Powerful performance needn’t cost the earth.

Mobile phone preparation: The use of a mobile phone inside a vehicle may cause an increase in the interior electromagnetic field strength
and, accordingly, in the electromagnetic radiation to which passengers are exposed. If a cradle is used to mount the mobile phone,the field
strength inside the vehicle can be reduced by connecting to the exterior aerial (depending on how specific mobile phones connect to the
cradle). For more information about the availability of a cradle for your mobile phone, please contact your Porsche Centre. Use of the tele-
phone module for PCM prevents exposure to electromagnetic radiation as only the vehicle’s exterior aerial is used.
