The 911 Turbo.
Although the figures provide
succinct proof of its power,
there is one value in particular
that makes a 911 Turbo what
it is: constancy. Of course, much
has changed in the course of
seven generations, but the basic
principle remains the same.
It is in the nature of the 911 Turbo
to handle its power ef fortlessly
and with composure. Power is
available at all times. The 3.8-litre
six-cylinder boxer engine with
DFI outputs 368 kW (500 hp) be -
t ween 6,000 rpm and 6,500 rpm
and summons up 650 Nm of
torque bet ween 1,950 rpm and
5,000 rpm. Despite delivering
more power than the previous
model, it has been possible to
reduce fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions significantly, by up
to 16 % and 18 % respectively,
depending on the model.
Here are some more fascinating
facts: with the standard six-speed
manual gearbox, the traditional
0 to 100 km/ h (62 mph) sprint is
achieved in just 3.7 seconds.
With the optional PDK and Sport
Chrono Package Turbo with
dynamic engine mount system,
this time is reduced even further,
to 3.4 seconds. The 200 km/ h
(124 mph) mark is reached in 11.9
and 11.3 seconds respectively.
Top speed is 312 km/ h (194 mph).
These figures undoubtedly brand
the 911 Turbo as a super athlete.
Yet the amazing thing is the ease
with which the driver can achieve
them. Helping to make it all
so easy are the standard-fit ted
Porsche Traction Management
(PTM) active all-wheel drive,
Porsche Stabilit y Management
(PSM), Porsche Active Suspension
Management (PASM) and optional
Porsche Torque Vectoring (PT V). What ’s also interesting is that
these technologies not only
produce impressive performance
figures, they also vastly improve
the car’s everyday practicalit y.
The same can be said for the
comfortable interior. Leather
trim and the multi-way electrically
adjustable comfort seats with
driver memory function come as
standard. Porsche Communication
Management (PCM) with a GPS
navigation system features intui -
tive controls, while the standard
BOSE® Surround Sound System
provides an impressive sound
experience. Seat ventilation,
steering wheel heating and many
other personalisation options
are available on request.
The 911 Turbo. Whether you
perceive it as a no -compromise
embodiment of the power
prin ciple or as a technology plat -
form that effortlessly combines
efficiency with comfort and a
sport y edge depends on one thing
above all else: your point of view.
Closed or open, ‘S’ or no ‘S’.
There are many ways to inter -
pret the 911 Turbo concept.
But one thing remains the
same: making a choice never
means making a compromise
on power and efficiency.
You don’t have to depart this life
to become a legend.

This double clutch provides
an alternating, non positive
connection bet ween the t wo
half-gear
boxes and the engine
by means of t wo separate
input shafts
(input shaf t 1 is
nested inside the hollowed- out
input shaft 2).
The flow of power from the
engine is only ever transmit ted
through one half-gearbox and
one clutch at a time, while the
next gear is preselected in the
second half-gearbox. During a
gear change, therefore, a conven -
tional shift no longer takes place.
Instead, one clutch simply opens
and the other closes at the same
time. Gear changes can therefore
take place within milliseconds.
Clutch 1 controls the first half-
gearbox, which contains the odd
gears (1, 3, 5, 7) and reverse.
Clutch 2 controls the second,
which contains the even gears
(2, 4, 6).
The Sport Chrono Package Turbo
with dynamic engine mount system (standard on 911 Turbo S
models) provides PDK with t wo
additional functions, ‘Launch
Control’ and ‘motor sport- derived
gearshif t strategy’ (page 60).
PDK – sport y, comfortable and
ef ficient. Characteristics that have
been given some thought else -
where too: in the specification for
the 911 Turbo model range.
Three-spoke sports steering
wheel with gearshift switches.
If combined with the optional
PDK, the three-spoke sports
steering wheel (standard on
911 Turbo and 911 Turbo Cabriolet)
has t wo ergonomic switches.
One press with the thumb and
PDK shif ts up. One pull with the
index finger and PDK shifts down.
Either the right or lef t hand can
be used.
The steering wheel rim and airbag
module are covered in smooth
leather, whilst the spoke covers
are painted in Black.
When combined with the Sport
Chrono Package Turbo with
dynamic engine mount system,
there is an additional display
above the airbag module. It tells
you whether the SPORT, SPORT
PLUS and Launch Control func -
tions are activated.
On request, the three-spoke
sports steering wheel with gear -
shift switches for the 911 Turbo
and 911 Turbo S models is also
available as a multifunction steer -
ing wheel (in leather, Aluminium
Look, carbon or macassar).
Steering wheel heating is avail -
able as an option.
Three-spoke sports steering
wheel with gearshift paddles.
The three-spoke sports steering
wheel with gearshif t paddles
(standard on 911 Turbo S models,
optional for 911 Turbo models)
allows you to make motorsport-
st yle gear changes. The paddles
are made from a strong alloy and
are ergonomically located behind the right and lef t steering wheel
spokes. Pull the right-hand paddle
and PDK shifts up. Pull the
left-hand paddle and the PDK
shifts down.
Visually, the steering wheel is
distinguished by its distinctive
high-qualit y t win-spoke design
and silver-coloured galvanised
spoke cover. The airbag module
is finished in the same colour as
the steering wheel rim.
This steering wheel also has an
additional display when combined
with the Sport Chrono Package
Turbo with dynamic engine mount
system. Located in the lef t and
right-hand steering wheel spokes,
it tells you whether SPORT,
SPORT PLUS and Launch Control
are activated.
Another feature reminiscent of
the world of motorsport is the top
centre marking on the steering
wheel rim.

Interior.
Efficient ergonomics is the guid-
ing theme for the interior. The
steering wheel of fers 40 mm of
adjustment for both height and
reach. A multifunction steering
wheel – with or without steering
wheel heating – is available on
request. The distinctively designed gear lever (for the six-
speed manual gearbox) and PDK
gear selector are easy to operate.
Porsche Communication Manage
-
ment (PCM) with a touchscreen is
fit ted as standard, as is the inte -
gral GPS navigation module with
hard drive navigation (page 86).
The new 911 Turbo S models come equipped with an integrated
six- disc CD/ DVD autochanger
and cruise control as standard.
The air- conditioning system with
an active carbon filter is fully
automatic. The leather finish on the seats,
dashboard, doors and rear
side panels is pleasing to the
touch. Available exclusively for
911 Turbo S models as standard
is the choice of t wo -tone leather
interior in either Black and Cream
or Black and Titanium Blue.
The centre console and door
storage compartments provide
storage space for personal items.
Below the passenger airbag are
t wo cup holders and below these
is the glove compartment with
CD storage.
Two 12-volt sockets (including the
cigaret te lighter) provide power
for a range of electrical devices.
Instruments.
The classic Porsche grouping of
five round instruments offers a
clear overview of all key informa -
tion.
The digital display in the centre-
left dial (speedometer) provides
main and trip odometer readings.
The central rev counter, featuring
the ‘turbo’ ‘or turbo S’ logo,
includes the standard on-board
computer display. This multi -
pur
pose field contains a perma -
nent digital speedometer as well
as the upshif t display on manual
models. The following optional information can also be displayed:
boost pressure, average speed,
average fuel consumption, t yre
pressure, current radio station,
navigation instructions and
remaining range till empt y. When
‘Sport ’ mode is selected on
the Sport Chrono Package Turbo
in a 911 Turbo model equipped
with dynamic engine mount
system, the temporary increase
in maximum torque is clearly
indicated by an arrow symbol in
the boost pressure display.
The third display, in the centre-
right dial, shows the time and
outside temperature.
Why do you need huge gestures
when the signs are clear?
Comfort.
An expressive design.
Well conceived technology.
A consistently sporty style.
No gimmicks. Why should the
rules for performance be
any different for the interior?
