| The 911 Carrera Cabriolet
The future of the sports car
is wide open again.

The 911 Carrera Cabriolet.
Sometimes, the best option is to free
your mind, to look at things from a fresh
perspective and to explore your own
direction, not least when you’ve set
yourself ambitious goals for the future.
These goals can be achieved by opening
yourself up to new ideas.
This is the direction explored by the
911 Carrera Cabriolet. With forward ­
looking hood engineering, lightweight
materials and an integrated wind deflector,
it conceives a new kind of freedom and
broadens the appeal of the sports car. Smooth and firm, light and robust, the
design of the hood is impressive in terms
of both appearance and construction.

It
is made from three ultra ­light weight
magnesium elements and is covered in
fabric. This saves weight and, not only
does it improve aesthetics, it also reduces
unwanted noise. What you can still hear,
however, is the unadulterated sound of
y o u r 9 11 .
The wind deflector is fit ted as standard
and offers practically draught ­free driving
and minimal wind noise. Operation could
not be easier. Integrated directly behind the rear seats, it folds out electrically in
just t wo seconds and remains operable
up to a speed of 74 mph.
The performance figures of the
911 Carrera Cabriolet reflect the ambi ­
tious goals achieved by our engineers.
The downsized and rear ­mounted 3.4 ­litre
flat ­six engine delivers 257 kW (350 hp)
at 7,400 rpm and enables a top speed of
177 mph. Compared with the previous
model, fuel consumption and CO
2 emis ­
sions have been reduced by 15 %.
In summary, this articulate concept forms
the basis for a self ­assured personalit y.
Typified by its courage to adapt and
change, it derives pleasure from exploring
new directions. After all, the future is
wide open.
For fuel consumption and CO
2 emissions, please refer to pages 143/145.

Sports seats.
The Sports seats in partial leather are
comfortable and provide support even
during performance driving. They are
equipped as standard with electric seat
height and backrest adjustment and
mechanical fore/aft adjustment.

Sports seats Plus.
Available as an option are Sports seats
Plus in leather with electric seat height
and backrest adjustment as well as
mechanical fore/aft adjustment. The side
bolsters on the squab and backrest
have firmer, sportier padding and offer
even better lateral support.
Adaptive Sports seats Plus.
The optional adaptive Sports seats Plus
are the ideal combination of sport

and comfort. Finished in leather and
with side bolsters having a firm, sport y
padding, they also feature shoulder
supports for the best possible hold.
Of fering 18­way electric adjustment,

the seats can be optimally adapted to
meet your needs in terms of seat height,
squab and backrest angle, squab length,
fore/aft adjustment and four ­way lumbar
support. The steering column is also
electrically adjustable.
Fully electric Sports seats.
If you don’t want to sacrifice sportiness
for comfort, the optional fully electric
Sports seats offer electric adjustment
of seat height, backrest angle, squab
angle, squab depth, fore/aft position,
four ­way lumbar support and even the
steering column.
The integrated memory package supports
the exterior mirrors and all seat positions
on the driver’s side as well as, for exam ­
ple, the set tings for the steering wheel,
lights, wipers, air conditioning, door locks,
standard PCM, and instrument cluster. In addition, the side bolsters on the seat
squab and backrest are independently
adjustable for added comfort on long
journeys and precision lateral support

on winding roads. Also included is the
personal memory for all seat positions
(apart from the side bolsters) and lumbar support on the driver’s side as well as
the positions of the steering wheel and
exterior mirrors. The memory function
also supports, for example, set tings for
the steering wheel, lights, wipers, air
conditioning, door locks, standard PCM,
and instrument cluster.
The ideal basis for any relationship:

Support as well as freedom.

Seating.Sports bucket seats.1)
Sports bucket seats featuring a folding
backrest, integral thorax airbag and
manual fore/aft adjustment are available
as optional equipment. The seat shells
are made from glass ­ and carbon­fibre
reinforced plastic (CFRP) with a carbon
surface finish.

Seat heating and ventilation.
Seat heating is available as an option
for all seats.
2) Seats are heated in the
squab,
the backrest and, for the front
seats, the side bolsters.
In conjunction with seat heating, we
can equip the seats (except for the
Sports bucket seats) with seat ventilation
on request. A slipstream effect is pro ­
duced by active ventilation of the perfo ­
rated seat centre and backrest and by
passive aeration at the side bolsters. This evaporates perspiration moisture
and therefore makes for a dry and pleas
­
ant seating environment, even in hot
weather.
Rear seats.
The rear seats are remarkably comforta ­
ble for a sports car and the shelf behind
offers additional storage space. With
the backrests folded down, the luggage
compartment volume in the 911 Carrera
Coupé models increases to 260 litres
and, with a capacit y of 160 litres availa ­
ble, the 911 Carrera Cabriolet models
offer plent y of space for luggage, too.
Child seats.1)
ISOFIX child seat preparation including
top tether is available on the rear seats
as standard. On request, we can equip
the front passenger seat with ISOFIX child
seat preparation and integrate an airbag
deactivation feature.
Spor ts bucket seat folded down
Spor ts bucket seat1) Child seats are not compatible with the Spor ts bucket seats.2) Available for Spor ts buckets seats from October 2013 at the earliest.
