Responsibility.
With great power comes great responsibility. To yourself, and to your
passengers. To those who share the road. To future generations and the
environment. At Porsche, we believe the actions we take must reflect
those responsibilities. And that our cars must turn engineering
challenges into opportunities, so Porsche and Porsche drivers can
contribute to a safer, more sustainable world.

1 Standard brakes in the 911 Turbo
Why has Porsche always viewed braking
performance with the same enthusiasm
we share for our engines and chassis?
Perhaps it is because we think of braking
as negative acceleration. For us, braking
response and the stopping distances
achieved by the new 911 Turbo models
should be every bit as breathtaking as
our throt tle response and acceleration
times. A Porsche 911 Turbo model’s
goal is nothing less than to be the
new reference point for sports car
braking. The braking performance must
provide the driver ample reassurance
that when speed needs to be shed,
the brakes will respond accordingly. In the new 911 Turbo and the new
911 Turbo Cabriolet, the brake
specification is suited to the demands
of high performance. The brake disc
diameter is 380 mm front and rear.
Grabbing hold of the front discs are
powerful 6-piston, aluminum monobloc
fixed calipers finished in red. At the
rear, 4-piston, aluminum monobloc fixed
calipers press the pads to the disc.
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 wet conditions.
Other benefits of the braking system
include the Anti-lock Brake System
(ABS), designed to minimize brake fade
and keep braking response constant.
Pedal effort is reduced and braking
response improved by a tandem
vacuum brake booster. Brake-disc
cooling is optimized by air spoilers.
Electric Parking Brake
The electric parking brake, which you
can activate and deactivate manually,
releases automatically as you pull away.
A performance isn’t finished until it comes to a complete stop.
Brakes.
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.

Body
The innovative bodyshell of the new
911 Turbo models fulfills t wo structural
design requirements: first, excellent
driving dynamics due to the body’s
extremely high rigidit y. Second, a
savings in vehicle weight, primarily due
to its intelligent lightweight construction.
To meet the second requirement, we
employed state-of-the-art techniques
for combining various materials in order
to utilize specific material properties
exactly where they are needed.
Take the bodyshell, for example. It uses
very thin—but extremely rigid—sheets
of steel. Aluminum and magnesium
were utilized extensively in areas
including the roof, underbody, doors,
engine compartment, and luggage compartment lids. Magnesium, which
is a particularly lightweight material,
was also selected for the cockpit
and center console support beam.
Reducing the overall weight—i.e.,
improving the power-to-weight ratio—
translates directly into the aim of
increasing performance, whether
that ’s measured by the acceleration,
steering, or braking. And it ’s measurable
another way, too: at the fuel pump.
Reduced fuel consumption.
For the driver, reducing the weight
of the 911 Turbo results in a high
level of comfort as well. Vibration-
damping characteristics are
excellent and, compared to the
previous model, torsional stiffness
has increased up to 25 percent to
create even sportier handling.
Airbags and the Po
rsche Side Impact
Protection (POSIP) System
The airbag technology in the new 911 Turbo
models provides full-size driver and front-
passenger airbags, which are inflated in t wo
stages depending on the severit y and t ype
of accident. In less serious accidents, the
airbags are only partially inflated to help
minimize discomfort to the occupants.
Another standard feature is the Porsche
Side Impact Protection (POSIP) system.
This system comprises side impact
protection elements in the doors and t wo
airbags on each side, an integral thorax
airbag located in each seat side bolster,
and a head airbag contained in each of
the door panels. Knee airbags are also
standard on all 911 Turbo models.
Rollover Protection in the
Cabriolet Models
Despite their light weight, the 911 Turbo
Cabriolet models have exemplary
torsional rigidit y and flexural strength.
Body flexing is minimal, especially when
compared with driving most other open-
top sports cars on uneven road surfaces.
In the event of a 911 Turbo Cabriolet
model rolling over, additional protection
is provided by a supplemental safet y
roll bar protection system that deploys
automatically. The two spring-loaded
rollover bars are located behind
the back seats. The rollover sensor
continuously monitors the car’s pitch
and roll, lateral and longitudinal
acceleration, and contact with the road.
In an emergency, it deploys the rollover
bars within a fraction of a second.

Porsche has increased efficiency in all
of its current series while at the same
time increasing performance. This is
achieved by an efficient drive, thanks
to Direct Fuel Injection (DFI), Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK), Variable Turbine
Geometry (V TG) and VarioCam Plus,
intelligent lightweight construction, active
aerodynamics, and low rolling resistance. A high level of environmental
responsibilit y is ensured not least
by Porsche’s own environmental
management teams in Weissach. They
ensure that all developments take
account of environmental compatibility.
The objective is to achieve pure
performance, but not at the expense
of the environment. This also applies
to the new 911 Turbo models.
All automotive manufacturers look
to the future. After all, the life-span
of an automobile from inception to
the end of its functional life can span
decades or even longer. So what
the world needs in 15 to 20 years,
Porsche engineers must address now.
Our focus is always on this: ultimate
performance with ultimate efficiency.
What we find when we go our own way:
solutions.
Environment.
Exhaust Emissions Control
At Porsche, our cars have long
demonstrated that even high-performance
sports cars can achieve moderate fuel
consumption and exhaust emissions
values in their respective category. The new 911 Turbo is no exception. It
uses technologies such as Auto Start
Stop, thermal management, electrical
system recuperation, Direct Fuel Injection
(DFI), VarioCam Plus, and coasting
to help optimize fuel efficiency.And the cataly tic converters provide
efficient emissions control.
The stereo lambda sensor controls
and monitors each cylinder bank
separately. For each exhaust tract, oxygen sensors regulate the composition
of the exhaust gas, while another
lambda sensor on each cylinder bank
monitors pollutant conversion in the
respective catalytic converter.

6970 Responsibility | Environment
Recycling
For both technical and ecological
reasons, intelligent lightweight
construction has been fundamental to
Porsche since our first car in 1948.
This forms the basis for achieving low
fuel consumption values in conjunction
with outstanding performance.
On the technical side, we use a high
proportion of aluminum, magnesium,
plastics, and super high-strength sheet
steel. The materials used have been
selected for their ability to withstand
load, yet they are considerably
lighter than conventional steel.On the ecological side, all materials used
are meticulously selected. All synthetic
components are easily recyclable. And
each material is labeled to facilitate its
separation for recycling. The reduction
in the number of plastic variants helps to
ensure more efficient recycling. Recycled
plastics are used where they meet our
exacting technical requirements.
In short, the new 911 Turbo models are
approximately 95 percent recyclable.
In addition, Porsche uses a high
proportion of environmentally
friendly water-based paints. For us,
environmental protection does not begin
at the end of a vehicle’s life. It starts at
the planning and development stage. having the same fuel economy of 17 mpg
in the cit y and 24 mpg on the highway.
Noise
The 911 Turbo models and the new
911 Turbo S comply with all current
noise regulations—without resorting
to engine encapsulation. To achieve
this, we’ve eliminated noise at the
source: Engine components are
more rigid, moving parts lighter,
and tolerances reduced to a
minimum. High-efficiency silencers
and resonators in the intake system
help to reduce noise even further.
Fuel
All Porsche models are designed to
operate on fuels with an ethanol content
of up to 10 percent. Ethanol has a positive
impact on the CO
2 balance since the plants
grown for the production of this biofuel
also absorb CO
2 from the atmosphere.
The release of hydrocarbons from the fuel
system has been minimized, thanks in no
small part to the active carbon filter and the
multilayered material from which the fuel
tank is made. All fuel lines are made from
multilayered plastic, steel, or aluminum.
The new 911 Turbo models have
maximized the fuel-saving technologies,
which results in all the 911 Turbo models

Personality.
Porsche engineers have given the new 911 Turbo its
essential character. But there’s ample opportunity for
Porsche owners to further define the personality of their
new 911. From the exterior color choice to a wide range of
features that individualize the interior, you can make the
model you select a precise expression of your personality.

1 911 Turbo interior in Espresso
With the new 911 Turbo models, our
engineers have pushed forward into
the extreme performance range. The
fact that the driver can remain quite
composed is also due to the answers
they have found to the questions about
sportiness, ergonomics, and comfort.
Interior
A Porsche interior is never frivolous,
always direct. In the new 911 Turbo,
clever technology and clear operating
logic allow the driver to experience
all that makes this the benchmark for
Porsche performance, as evident at once
from the ascending center console. In t ypical Porsche fashion, the use of form
follows a basic principle: Focus on the
driver. It ’s why the distance bet ween
the gear selector and steering wheel is
extremely short, and the operating logic
of systems such as the dual-zone air
conditioning or the suspension is clear
and uncomplicated. You shouldn’t have to
browse one submenu after another. You
should instead be able to concentrate on
what ’s singularly important: the road.
Materials of high qualit y define the sport y
character of each 911 Turbo model.
The standard Leather package includes
Leather seats, dashboard, and door and
side trims. Alcantara
® has proven its
worth in motorsport and is now standard
for the roof liner on the Coupe models.
The exclusive two-tone interior in Black
and Carrera Red is reserved especially
for the 911 Turbo S models. Dashboard,
center console, and door panel trim
strips in Carbon are standard in these
models (available as an option for the
911 Turbo and 911 Turbo Cabriolet).
In addition to the choice of Black,
Platinum Grey, Luxor Beige, and Yachting
Blue for the interior, there is a wide range
of other personalization options available, including two-tone color combinations
or special colors and materials such as
Carbon, Aluminum, or high-quality Wood.
Engineering that takes you forward: the
Porsche Communication Management
(PCM) system with navigation module
and a high-resolution 7-inch color
touchscreen. PCM is your control
center for audio, navigation, and
communication functions. It’s fitted as
standard in the new 911 Turbo models.
Inside, yet another Porsche extreme:
extreme quiet.

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
rear seats, door openers, door storage
compartments, and front foot wells.
Porsche Entry & Drive
With the optional Porsche Entry & Drive,
you can leave your car key in your pocket.
As soon as you grab the door handle
or approach the luggage compartment,
the system automatically checks the
encrypted access code on the key. Once
the key is validated, the door and the
luggage compartment lid unlock. The
engine can then be started and switched
off using the electronic ignition switch. To lock the vehicle, you simply press
the but ton on the outside of the door
handle. Porsche Entry & Drive then locks
the vehicle and activates the engine
immobilizer and steering-column lock.
Glass Tilt/Slide Sunroof
For the 911 Turbo Coupe
models, a power-adjustable tilt /
slide sunroof is available in tinted
single-glazed safety glass.
An integral power sunblind provides
shade from unwanted bright light. The
design, headroom, and aperture of
the glass roof are identical to those
of the steel tilt /slide sunroof. The
only difference is that, even when
closed, the glass sunroof still gives
you that open-to-the-sky feeling.
Reversing Camera
The optional reversing camera (only in
conjunction with ParkAssist front and
rear) facilitates reverse parking and
maneuvering. Help is provided in the
form of a high-contrast color image
with dynamic guidelines on the PCM
screen, which shows the predicted
course of the vehicle based on the
current position of the steering wheel.
Cruise Control
For greater driver comfort on long
stretches of road, this automatic
speed control function is standard on
the 911 Turbo and Turbo S models.
Cruise control operates above 19 m p h
and is activated using a but ton on
the steering-column control stalk.
Adaptive Cruise Control Including
Po
rsche 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 monitors the road
ahead at up to a distance of 656 feet.
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 up to a maximum
rate of 11 f t . /s e c 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 complete stop.
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
warnings. 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.

Burmester® High-End Surround
Sound System
When t wo iconic German manufacturers
join forces, the result is special. We’re
referring to Porsche and Berlin-based
Burmester
®, one of the most respected
manufacturers of high-end audio
equipment worldwide. The Burmester
®
High-End Surround Sound System is
based on the finest premium home
audio systems Burmester
® has to offer.
The technologies behind the system
optimize countless details of audio
design, with one goal: sound perfection.
The system boasts 12 amplifier
channels with a total output of more
than
82
1 wat ts, 12 loudspeakers
including an active subwoofer with
300 -wat t Class D amplifier, a total
diaphragm surface area of more than
207 square inches, and a frequency
response of 35 Hz to 20 kHz. The Burmester
® system uses the
patented integral subwoofer, which
replaces the familiar separate
subwoofer and loudspeaker
arrangement of other systems. This
saves weight and has a beneficial
impact on acoustic performance.
Crossover technology has been carried
over more or less unmodified from
the home audio sector. Analog and
digital filters have been optimally
defined for their new installation
location and finely tuned after
extensive in-car audio testing.
For unmistakably fine, clear, and
undistorted high-frequency sound
reproduction with excellent level
stability, ribbon-based Air Motion
Transformers (AMT) have been
used for all of the 911 Turbo
models. All loudspeaker housings are perfectly matched and deliver
superior bass foundation, definition,
and impulse accuracy. The result
is a natural and richly textured
spatial sound even at top volume.
The pure, sport y design with galvanized
surrounds and Burmester
® logos on
select loudspeakers makes it clear
that the appeal of the Burmester
®
High-End Surround Sound System
is as much about the visual as it is
the audio. Uncompromising in sound
and design. Typically Porsche.
Bose® Surround Sound System
The sound of a Porsche is as unique
as a fingerprint. And that ’s true
not just of the engine’s sound. The
Bose
® Surround Sound System,
which comes standard, is perfectly
tuned to the specific interior
acoustics of the 911 Turbo models.
The system has eight amplifier
channels, 12 loudspeakers, and a
patented integral 100-watt active
subwoofer and a total output
of 445 wat ts. The combined
effect is a balanced acoustic
pat tern that transforms your
911 Turbo into a concert hall. An
extremely fast-moving one.
The Bose
® Surround Sound System
enables audio playback of DVDs and
makes full use of the impressive sound
spectrum of 5.1 digital recordings. Of course, you can still play other audio
sources, such as CDs and MP3s—in
stereo. Or, at the push of a but ton,
in one of the virtual surround modes
generated by Bose
® Centerpoint®2.
The Bose
®-patented AudioPilot®
Noise Compensation Technology
uses a microphone to continuously
measure the ambient noise inside
the vehicle. It then instantly adapts
music playback automatically so that
a consistent sound is maintained,
whatever the driving conditions.
The result is a powerful sound
and captivating 360 -degree
acoustic experience
