The 3.4-litre engine of the
911 Targa 4.
The engine of the new 911 Targa 4
develops 257 kW (350 hp) at 7,400 rpm
and a maximum torque of 390 Nm at
5,600 rpm. When combined with the
7-speed manual gearbox, it accelerates
from 0 – 62 mph in just 5.2 seconds and
reaches a top speed of 175 mph.
The 3.8-litre engine of the
911 Targa 4S.
On the S model, the figures speak for
themselves: the 3.8-litre boxer engine
develops 294 kW (400 hp) at 7,400 rpm
and a maximum torque of 440 Nm at
5,600 rpm. When equipped with the
optional Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK),
the new 911 Targa 4S completes the
0 – 62 mph sprint in just 4.6 seconds
and can continue on to a top speed of
182 mph.
Efficiency technologies.
At Porsche, reducing fuel consumption is
part and parcel of performance. It goes
without saying, therefore, that efficiency
technologies are standard features on
the 9 11 Targa 4 models and form an
integral part of the vehicle concept.
Whenever the car comes to a stop, the
auto start/stop function automatically
switches off the engine – and restarts it
swiftly and smoothly as soon as you
operate the clutch or, on models with
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK), as soon
as you release the brake.
The thermal management system
regulates the temperature in the engine
and gearbox through the intelligent
manipulation of heat flow. The resulting
improvement in combustion efficiency has
a beneficial effect on fuel consumption. A further fuel-saving feature is electrical
system recuperation. This function
ensures that the bat tery is recharged
predominantly by the alternator under
braking conditions.
Direct fuel injection (DFI).
DFI delivers fuel directly into the combus
-
tion chamber with millisecond precision.
The spray and cone angles of the multi-
hole injectors have been optimised for
torque, power output, fuel consumption,
emissions and efficient combustion.
Exhaust system.
The exhaust system of the 911 models
has been redesigned – acoustics included.
The stainless steel exhaust system
comprises two distinctive and independent
exhaust tracts. A selectable t win-tube
sports exhaust system featuring distinc -
tive polished stainless steel tailpipes
is available as an option. Activated by
a but ton, it produces an even more
intensive sports car sound.
