To give more and take less.
That’s Porsche engineering.

Engines.
You could ask whether the sports car is
still relevant. It would be a good question,
but you might as well ask the same of
dreams.
The answer to both questions lies in the
future or, to be more precise, in the future
of the sports car. In the 911, the future
is already here. The highly efficient, state ­
of­the ­art engines make a considerable
contribution to the comparatively low fuel
consumption, but their sound is still
unmistakably Porsche.
The 911 engines are also unmistakably
sport y thanks to the SPORT but ton fit ted
as st a n d a rd . At the push of a but ton, the engine be
­
comes tuned for a sharper response
and engine dynamics that are even more
direct.
The 3.4 ­litre engine of the 911 Carrera
models demonstrates, therefore, that
performance and efficiency need not be
mutually exclusive. Rather, the downsized
engine capacity and increased maximum
torque are the intelli
gent basis by which
power output can be increased in an
environmentally acceptable and sustain­
able way. Fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions have been reduced by up to
16 % compared with the previous model. In their search for improved efficiency,
our engineers analysed an extensive series
of engine components. Answers were
found, including rapid heating of the
engine and gearbox to normal operating
temperature after an engine start by the
thermal management system, improved
air induction and extremely effective
direct fuel injection (DFI).
The same principle applies to the 3.8 ­litre
engine in the 911 Carrera S models.
There has been no change in displace ­
ment since the previous model, but
po wer output has been increased while
fuel consumption has been reduced by
up to 15 %. Weight is critical to efficiency. This is

why the engines have a light­alloy
construction, making them lightweight
and yet structurally rigid. The result
is comparatively low fuel consumption
and a long service life.
The engine is the intelligent core of our
identit y. What else could the ‘Dr. Ing.’ in
our company name possibly stand for?

2 emissions, please refer to pages 143/145.

DFI delivers fuel directly into the combustion
chamber with millisecond precision. The
spray and cone angles of the multi­hole
injectors have been optimised for torque,
power output, fuel consumption, emissions
and ef ficient combustion.
With direct injection, the engine manage ­
ment system regulates injection timing
individually for each cylinder as well as
the injection rate for each cylinder bank.
This improves the combustion process
and fuel economy. vailing conditions. This results in instant
acceleration, extremely smooth running
and an extraordinary level of tractive
power, but with a comparatively low
level of fuel consumption.
For faster heating of the catalytic converters
after a cold start and optimum torque in
the upper load range, up to three injection
pulses take place per combustion cycle.
DFI improves the internal cooling of the
combustion chamber by having the mix
­
ture prepared directly in the cylinder. This
allows for a higher compression ratio,
which helps to deliver more output at the
same time as enhanced engine efficiency.
Injection is regulated by the electronic
engine management system and emis ­
sions are monitored by the Lambda
sensors.

VarioCam Plus System.
VarioCam Plus is a two ­in ­one engine
concept for adjusting the intake cam ­
shafts and switching the lift of the intake
valves.
The system first dif ferentiates bet ween
driver inputs that typify normal, everyday
driving and those inputs that demand
maximum performance. The electronic
engine management system then seam ­
lessly adapts valve operation to the pre ­

In the 911, there is a point at which all
forces come together. The steering wheel
is the most important inter face bet ween
the driver and the sports car. This is why
all available steering wheels feature a
high
­grip steering wheel rim in smooth ­
finish leather and offer outstanding ergo ­
nomics. A full ­size airbag is integrated as
st a n d a rd .SportDesign steering wheel.
As with the sports steering wheel, the
optional SportDesign steering wheel

is adjustable for both height and reach
and, thanks to its grip mouldings, it’s

in safe hands – even on the sportiest
of drives.
Sports steering wheel.
The sports steering wheel is fit ted as
standard and adjusts up to 40 mm for
height and up to 60 mm for reach.
The optional multifunction steering
wheel has four function but tons and t wo
thumbwheels for convenient operation of audio, telephone and navigation func
­
tions, TFT display and on ­board comput ­
er. On request, the steering wheel is avail ­
able in smooth ­finish leather, carbon or
mahogany.
In conjunction with PDK, the steering
wheels are equipped with t wo ergonomic
gearshift switches enabling you to change gear directly from the steering
wheel. With the optional Sport Chrono
Package, the steering wheel also fea
­
tures a display above the airbag mo ­
dule
to inform you whether the SPORT,
SPORT PLUS and Launch Control functions
have been activated.
SportDesign steering wheel
In conjunction with PDK, the steering
wheel features t wo gearshif t paddles.
These are made from a strong alloy and
are ergonomically located behind the
lef t ­ and right ­hand steering wheel
spokes. Pull the right ­hand paddle and
PDK shifts up. Pull the left ­hand paddle and PDK shifts down. When PDK has
been combined with the optional Sport
Chrono Package, the left ­ and right­hand
spokes additionally feature a display
that tells you whether the SPORT,
SPORT PLUS and Launch Control functions
have been activated.
Steering wheel heating.
For increased comfort on cold days,
steering wheel heating is available as
an option for the sports steering wheel
and multifunction steering wheels. The
heating is operated by a but ton on the
rear of the lower steering wheel spoke.

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.
