Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV).
This optional system for increasing
dynamic performance and stability varies
the distribution of torque to the rear
wheels and includes a mechanically lock -
ing rear differential. When the car is driven assertively into

a corner, moderate brake pressure is
applied to the inside rear wheel. Conse -
quently, a greater amount of drive force
is distributed to the outside rear wheel,
inducing an additional rotational pulse (yaw movement) around the vehicle’s

vertical axis. This results in a direct and
sport y steering action as the car enters
the corner. At low and medium vehicle speeds, PT V
significantly increases agilit y and steering
precision. At high speeds and when

accelerating out of corners, the rear differ -
ential lock ensures greater driving stabilit y on a range of surface conditions, includ
-
ing the wet and snow.
The results are remarkable stabilit y, easier
handling and outstanding traction as
well as
greater agilit y at every speed with

precise steering and stable load transfer
characteristics. What else? As ever, lots
of
excitement at every t wist and turn.

Lights.
Lights will always be an essential safet y
feature, but we go one step further by
using them as part of an extraordinary
styling concept.
Clear glass halogen headlights are fit ted
as standard on the Boxster. The Boxster S
is equipped as standard with Bi-Xenon
headlights. On both models, LED day time running lights and position lights are
housed in a separate auxiliary light unit
above the outer air intakes. LEDs provide
powerful illumination, respond extremely
rapidly to driver input, offer a longer

service life and have an unmistakable
appearance.
LED technology opens up entirely new
possibilities for designers. Not only are LEDs capable of fulfilling all the functions
of the imposing taillights and third brake
light, they are integral to safet y and

create a look that is unmistakable, day
and night.
Bi-Xenon headlights including
Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS).
The optional Porsche Dynamic Light
System (PDLS), which comprises Bi -Xenon headlights with halogen main-beam head
-
lights, a headlight cleaning system and
automatic dynamic range control, provides
uniform illumination of the road whether
dipped or main beam is selected.
The dynamic cornering light function
swivels the main headlights towards the
inside of a bend based on steering angle
and road speed. Put simply, a greater part of the road ahead is illuminated the
moment you enter a bend. The system also includes a speed-sensitive
headlight range control function. With
adaptive light systems, it is possible for
the maximum range of the dipped beams
and their lighting power to be adjusted as
a function of the speed of the vehicle.
PDLS takes care of this automatically in t wo stages. Stage 1 is the basic position,
optimised for driving at lower speeds
such as in cit y traffic. Stage 2 is designed
for driving at faster speeds, such as
when on the motorway. Another function
of PDLS is the adverse weather function.
Activated when you switch on the rear
fog light, it reduces the effect of reflection
phenomena in poor visibility conditions.
Automatic headlight activation.
In the new Boxster models, automatic
headlight activation is available as
standard. The system automatically
switches bet ween day time running lights
and dipped beam based on ambient
lighting conditions.
