Fog lights.
BiXenon headlights with

dynamic range control are fit ted
as standard. Their beams are
around t wice as bright as those
of conventional halogen lamps.
Light output is improved and the
road illuminated more uniformly
on both dipped and main beam,
helping to minimise driver
fatigue. A headlight cleaning
function is also incorporated.
Dynamic cornering lights.
Available as an option, dynamic
cornering lights offer particularly
effective illumination of the
road ahead, especially through
bends. Sensors continuously
monitor the speed, lateral acce
leration and steering lock and,
from these variables, calculate
the course of the bend. This
Lighting concept.
The front light units incorporate
the direction indicators, the
LED day time running lights and
position lights, which provide
outstanding visibilit y and create
an imposing look that is unmis
takable even in the dark. LEDs
are also used for the direction
indicators, the taillights and
brake lights, the additional brake
light in the rear spoiler, and the
rear fog light. LEDs offer several
advantages. Importantly, they
provide effective illumination
and respond more quickly to
driver input.
determines the angle of illumina
tion for the dipped beam lights,
up to a maximum of 15 degrees.
On t wisting roads, this means
the course of the road and
obstacles can be seen earlier
by the driver.
Driver and passenger airbags.
The t wo full size airbags can be
inflated in t wo stages, depend
ing
on the severit y of the impact. In
a low speed crash, the airbags
are only partially inflated, there
by minimising discomfort to the
occupants.
Porsche Side Impact
Protection System (POSIP).
The Posche Side Impact
Pro
tection System (POSIP), fit
ted as standard, consists of side
impact protection beams in the
doors and t wo side airbags on
each side, namely a thorax air
bag located in the side of each
backrest and a head airbag
incorporated within each door.
Each airbag has an approximate
volume of 8 litres, ensuring
excellent protection in the event
of side impact.
Additional safet y features
include the headrests which
form an integral part of each
seat, an energy absorbing
steering column, three point
seat belts with height adjust
ment (Coupé models only), seat
belt pre tensioners and force
limiters and energy absorbing
elements in the dashboard.
Passive safet y in the Cabriolet.
Despite their modest weight, the
torsional rigidit y and flexural
strength of the 911 Carrera GTS
Cabriolet models are exemplary.
Body flexing is minimal even on
the most poorly surfaced roads.
Additional brace members at
each of the rear wheel arches
provide additional reinforcement
to the bodyshell. Increased
protection is provided by an
automatically deploying roll over
protection system if the car
were to overturn. Two spring
loaded roll over bars are neatly
incorporated behind the rear
seats. The roll over sensor
continuously monitors the car’s
pitch and roll, contact with the
road, as well as lateral and lon
gitudinal forces. If the car were
to overturn, the roll over bars
would be deployed instantly.
