Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control
(PDCC).
PDCC – available as an option for the
new 911 Targa 4S – is an active anti-roll
system that suppresses lateral body
movement during cornering manoeuvres.
In addition, it minimises the lateral
instabilit y of the vehicle on uneven ground.
The results are improved dynamic perfor-
mance and increased ride comfort at all
speeds, as well as optimised turn-in and
stable load transfer characteristics. In simple terms, the t yres and vehicle
hold the road bet ter and you can steer
through the corners faster and in a more
relaxed manner. PDCC is thus set ting
standards for handling performance, ride
comfort and driving pleasure.
Electromechanical power steering.
It ’s a known fact that a stretch of straight
road heightens your anticipation of the
next bend. However, statistics show that
a car drives in a straight line 90
% of
the time. Our engineers saw the energy-
saving potential that this offered. So,
unlike conventional hydraulic pumps, the electric motor of the electromechanical
power steering system uses energy
only when the steering wheel is actually
turned. The absence of hydraulic fluid
also makes the system more beneficial
to the environment.
As far as the other 10 % is concerned,
we’re optimally prepared, as the steering
system is t ypically Porsche. It features
a variable steering ratio and responds
sensitively and directly whilst providing
customary agilit y, a high degree of
comfort and precisely selected feedback
from the road.
