Porsche Stability Management (PSM).

Porsche Stabilit y Management (PSM) is fit-
ted as standard. This system automatically
maintains stability even at the limits of
dynamic driving performance. Sensors
continuously monitor the speed, yaw

brake assist. If you suddenly release the
accelerator pedal, PSM automatically
prepares for your next action: the braking
system is precharged so that the brake
pads are already in light contact with the
brake discs. Maximum braking power is

If you prefer an ever sportier drive, PSM
can be switched off. For your safet y,

however, PSM remains set to intervene if
the vehicle is braked and ABS assistance

is required. ABS and ABD remain switched
on at all times. Also included with PSM
are engine drag torque control (EDC),
Under acceleration on wet or low-grip
road surfaces, PSM improves traction –
as well as agilit y and safet y – using the
automatic brake differential (ABD) and
antislip regulation (ASR). Integrated ABS is
designed to minimise braking distances. car. Using this information, PSM is able
to calculate the actual direction of travel
at any given moment. If the car begins
to oversteer or understeer, PSM applies
selective braking on individual wheels in
order to restore stability.

The results are remarkable stability,
easier handling and outstanding traction
as well as greater agilit y at every speed
At low and medium vehicle speeds, PT V
significantly increases agilit y and steering

ccelerating out of corners, the rear differ-
ential lock ensures greater driving stabilit y
(yaw movement) around the vehicle’s
vertical axis. This results in a direct and

the corner.
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 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.
