Porsche Traction Management (PTM)
Enhanced Porsche Traction Management
(PTM) with water-cooled front-axle
gearbox is standard in all of the new
911 Turbo models. It is an active all-
wheel-drive system with an electronically
variable map-controlled multiplate
clutch, Automatic Brake Differential
(ABD), and Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR).
And it delivers the high power of the new
911 Turbo models even more effectively
and efficiently to the road. This is thanks
to the new water-cooling system for the
front-axle gearbox. Water conducts heat
bet ter than air. So the cooling jackets placed on the gearbox have several
advantages: When you first start your
911 Turbo, the water ensures that the
gearbox warms up more quickly—and
reaches its optimal temperature sooner.
And during the drive itself, the heat
produced is dissipated more easily.
So more torque and more drive
force can be transmit ted through
the gearbox to the front axle.
Drive power is distributed bet ween
the permanently driven rear axle
and the front axle by means of the
electronically variable multiplate clutch.The status of the vehicle is continuously
monitored so that it is possible to respond
to different driving situations. Sensors are
used to collect a range of data, including
the rotational speed of all four wheels,
the lateral and longitudinal acceleration of
the car, and the current steering angle.
If, for example, the rear wheels begin
to lose traction under acceleration, a
greater proportion of the drive power
is automatically transmit ted to the front
axle by a more positive engagement of
the multiplate clutch. In addition, ASR
prevents wheelspin by adapting the
engine’s power output. During cornering, the optimal level of drive power is
distributed to the front wheels to help
ensure excellent lateral stability.
In conjunction with Porsche Stability
Management (PSM), PTM helps to
ensure the perfect distribution of drive
power for optimal traction in most road
scenarios, whether on long straights,
through tight corners, or on surfaces
with different friction coefficients.

Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus
(P

ifferential Lock
PT V Plus is standard on all new
911 Turbo models: The system actively
enhances vehicle dynamics and
stability and operates, in conjunction
with an electronic rear differential lock, by varying the distribution of
torque applied to the rear wheels.
By constantly monitoring steering
angle and steering speed, accelerator
pedal position, yaw rate, and vehicle
speed, PT V Plus is able to improve
steering response and steering precision by specific braking of
the right or left rear wheel.
Here’s how it works: When the
911 Turbo is driven assertively into
a corner, moderate brake pressure
is automatically applied to the inside
rear wheel. Comparatively, the outside
rear wheel receives a greater amount of drive force distribution, inducing
an additional rotational pulse (yaw
movement) around the vehicle’s
vertical axis. This results in a direct
and sport y steering response as
the 911 Turbo enters the corner.
At low and medium vehicle speeds,
PTV Plus significantly increases
agilit y and steering precision. At high
speeds and when accelerating out of
corners, the rear differential lock, with
infinitely variable torque distribution,
ensures greater driving stability.The system thus interacts with Porsche
Stabilit y Management (PSM) to improve
driving stabilit y on a range of surface
conditions, including water and snow.
What does all this mean for the
911 Turbo driver? Outstanding traction,
as well as greater agilit y at every
speed with precise steering and
stable load transfer characteristics.
In other words, unrivaled driving
pleasure at every t wist and turn.

Sport Button
Standard on all new 911 Turbo models,
the Sport but ton enables you to select
a suspension setup to emphasize either
comfort or sport y performance. At
the push of a but ton, the electronic
engine management system switches
the engine mapping to offer an even
sharper response. In conjunction with
the Sport Chrono Package (standard
in the 911 Turbo S and the new
911 Turbo S Cabriolet), the overboost
function is then active and the dynamic
engine mounts become much firmer.
In Sport mode, PDK ensures that
upshifts take place at higher engine
speeds and downshifts happen sooner.
Coasting mode and the Auto Start
Stop function are deactivated.
Sport Chrono Package Including
Dynamic Engine Mounts
The Sport Chrono Package including
dynamic engine mounts is standard in
the 911 Turbo S models and available
as an option for the new 911 Turbo. This
integrated system provides simultaneous
enhancement for the chassis,
including rear-axle steering, engine,
transmission, and aerodynamics.
The main features include a digital
and analog stopwatch mounted on the
dashboard, a performance display in the
Porsche Communication Management
(PCM) system, the Sport Plus but ton,
and the overboost function.
Activate Sport Plus mode and here’s what
happens: Porsche Active Suspension
Management (PASM), the electronic
suspension management, becomes more responsive. PASM and Porsche Dynamic
Chassis Control (PDCC)—standard in the
new 911 Turbo S—switch to Sport Plus
mode for a firmer suspension set ting,
more direct steering while cornering, and
increased roll stabilization. The rear-axle
steering also reacts more directly—for
even more agile steering. As part of
Porsche Active Aerodynamics (PA A),
the automatic adjustment of the front
and rear spoilers is also impacted in
the performance setting in Sport Plus
mode. So you can make full use of the
performance potential of your 911 Turbo.
In Sport Plus mode, the trigger threshold
for PSM is raised. Agilit y is perceptibly
enhanced when braking for corners with
PSM, allowing sportier braking and exit
acceleration. For maximum dexterit y, PSM
can be set to standby while the car
i
s
still in Sport Plus mode. Although, for
safet y, it ’s still there in the background. With the Sport or Sport Plus but ton
active, under full acceleration, the
maximum boost pressure in the
lower and medium speed ranges
is now temporarily increased by
approximately
2 psi: the overboost.
Engine torque is also boosted
by 37 lb.-ft. for a short time—to
524 lb.-ft. in the 911 Turbo and the
911 Turbo Cabriolet. In the 911 Turbo S
models, it goes up to 553 lb.-ft.
The Sport Chrono Package has t wo
additional functions. The first is
Launch Control, which helps achieve
optimal acceleration from a standing
start. The second function is the
motorsport-derived gearshift strategy.
Using this, PDK optimizes shift
points to the shortest possible shift
times for maximum acceleration.
