A duel between GTS and Targa.
Both prevail.
The 911 Targa 4 GTS concept.
All that mat ters is performance. In short:
GTS. The genes of a race car packed into
a 911. Power has been further increased,
performance enhanced and the traction
of the all-wheel drive is nothing short of
impressive.
All that mat ters is design. In short: Targa.
A timeless icon with its st ylish roll bar,
revolutionary roof concept and the
driving feel of an open-top Porsche. Sportiness meets st yle. GTS meets
Targa. With its design, this 911 belongs
to the avant garde. With its power, it
leaves the avant garde behind.
A sports car for those who wouldn’t

be satisfied with any thing less. With
extra horsepower, a particularly
exquisite specification and even
greater performance.
A sports car that has never before
existed in this form.

Design

11
It doesn’t just attract glances.
It turns them into gazes.
Exterior design.
At Porsche, design has always been about
much more than good looks. Design has
always had a function, too. Only then does
it possess genuinely captivating power,
and hold the admirer under its spell.

We’ve given the new 911 Targa 4 GTS
every thing that a sports car needs for
captivating appeal: a powerful front, a
broad rear, a sharpened design. And
Carmine Red paint work, which – with the
GTS – is available as an option for the
911 models for the very first time. And
brings into prominence those elements
of the exterior finished in black. The sport y design of the front apron is
clear to see – yet pared down to the
essentials. Aerodynamics are excellent
thanks to the optimised front spoiler,
while large air intakes ensure the supply
of fresh air is maximised.
Typical of a GTS are the Bi-Xenon main
headlights including the Porsche Dynamic
Light System (PDLS) in black as well as
SportDesign exterior mirrors, all of which
are fit ted as standard.

12The silver-coloured Targa roll bar is a
characteristic feature. The ‘targa’ logo
underneath the side gills is in black.
Black creates further contrasts, too,
such as on the engine’s air intake grille
and on the t win tailpipes of the sports
exhaust system fit ted as standard.

A fusion of form and function. With a

rear that is 44 mm wider than that of
the 911 Carrera S and which makes
the 911 Targa 4 GTS appear even more
muscular. With the elegantly rounded
rear window. With the innovative Targa
roof, which opens or closes fully
automatically in just 20 seconds. With
the seamless taillight strip built on
modern LED technology – and the
superlative sport y traction of the
all-wheel drive. Aesthetics from the racetrack:
20
-inch Turbo S wheels, fit ted as
standard and featuring a central locking
device and paint finish in satin black.
Five-spoke, 20-inch Carrera S alloy
wheels – also painted in satin black –
are available as an option. Both of
these large wheels are characterised
by their excellent roadholding and
racetrack performance.
We can analyse the captivating power of
the new 911 Targa 4 GTS. We can explain
it. And we can describe it in the language
of design. There’s only one thing we
cannot do: resist.

Beaut y has a lot to do with a clear design
language, with a focus on the essentials.
It ’s another reason why good design must
never be fanciful, but should always
express character.
The new 911 Targa 4 GTS does this in
the interior, too – with sporty ergonomics,
with exquisite equipment and with mater
-
ials that breathe motorsport. Especially:
Alcantara. It ’s used wherever some extra
protection against wear and tear might
be needed.
Sports seats Plus.
Sports seats Plus in smooth-finish
leather and with seat centres in
Alcantara are fit ted as standard and
come equipped with electric seat height
and backrest adjustment, as well as
mechanical fore/aft adjustment.
The side bolsters on the cushion and
backrest have firm, sport y padding
and offer excellent lateral support.
The ‘GTS’ logo embroidered on the
headrests is a striking feature.
Beauty in the beast.

Interior design.
GTS interior package.
The optional GTS interior package
highlights sports performance. The
interior is enhanced by accents in
Carmine Red or Platinum Silver. The
‘GTS’ logos on the headrests are
embroidered in a contrasting colour.

The package also includes various
decorative stitching elements, the
‘PORSCHE’ logo on floor mats and

the edges of the seat belts. The rev
counter dial is also finished in the
contrasting colour.

Motorsport minimalism is epitomised
by carbon. This particularly lightweight
material is used on the dashboard trim
strips and doors, as well as on the
centre console.
