910 911 Tu r b o | Design
A lot of designed objects make
a stunning debut. Very few
achieve lasting impact.
Design can only endure if form is not
just a shell. If form truly follows function,
then that object cannot—should not—
be any thing else. When that ideal is
realized, the result is something truly
timeless; something that will serve
as the essential reference point for
every thing that comes after it. There can be no doubt about the origin
of the new 911 Turbo. In its form,
proportions, and lines, it is clearly
evolved from all previous 911 Turbo
models. The changes are subtle yet
profound. The fenders are higher than
the front hood; the extra inch at the back
compared to previous models creates an
especially dynamic tension. Height and
overhangs have been reduced, while the
wheelbase is approximately four inches
longer, improving stability and stretching
the characteristic arc of the 911 roofline. The new 911 Turbo looks more
powerful, more agile, sportier.
An iconic feature of the 911 Turbo
is the rear aerodynamic wing. In the
new 911 Turbo, it ’s been completely
revised and, together with the
adaptive spoiler at the front, forms
the completely new Porsche Active
Aerodynamics (PA A) system.
The design of the new 911 Turbo
Cabriolet is also resetting standards in
both form and function. The integrated
supporting magnesium elements of the
fabric top are light weight yet rigid to
help the Cabriolet retain the distinctive
form of the 911 when the top is up.
And at the same time, they help make
it extremely stable, to enhance the
structural rigidit y of the chassis that is
so essential to a Porsche sports car.

The power of air.
As applied by Porsche.
The new 911 Turbo Cabriolet and 911 Turbo S Cabriolet.
The 911 Turbo is an exercise in
exploiting the power of air. The new
911 Turbo Cabriolet and Turbo
S
Cabriolet? All the more so.
The newly developed fabric cabriolet
top and electric wind deflector in the
911 Turbo Cabriolet models provide the
best conditions for plent y of fresh air.
The key points: They are convenient and
quick to operate, create lit tle drag while
driving, and there is minimal wind noise.
And now, for the first time in a Turbo
Cabriolet, the 911 silhouette is just as
unmistakable as in a 911 Turbo Coupe. Both models are driven by a 3.8-liter
t win-turbo engine. In the new 911 Turbo
Cabriolet, it develops 520 horsepower
at 6000 – 6500 rpm and a maximum
torque of 487 lb.-ft. The top track
speed is 195 mph and it reaches its
60 -mph mark in just 3.3 seconds.
With an additional 40 horsepower, the
engine in the new 911 Turbo S Cabriolet
delivers even more, specifically:
560 horsepower bet ween 6500 and
6750 rpm. The maximum torque, with
overboost, is 553 lb.-ft., enabling
a top speed of 197 mph and a breathtaking sprint from 0–60 mph
in a mere 3.0 seconds.
The enhanced Porsche Doppelkupplung
(PDK) transmission is precise and direct,
transmit ting power to all four wheels
via the active all-wheel-drive capabilities
of Porsche Traction Management
(PTM). Rear-axle steering helps further
the aim of handling precision.
Another way to tap the power of air?
Porsche Active Aerodynamics (PA A).
It ’s an innovation Porsche developed
for the racetrack, where rapid changes
in downforce dynamics can poise a challenge to high-speed stabilit y. The
solution is the active adjustment of the
front and rear spoilers to constantly
optimize aerodynamic downforce
over the front and rear axles.
The new 911 Turbo Cabriolet boasts 20 -
inch two-tone wheels as standard, while
on the new 911 Turbo S Cabriolet, 20 -inch
t wo -tone 911 Turbo S wheels with central
locking device are standard. All wheels
are forged and polished on the front.
The new 911 Turbo Cabriolet models: our
new benchmark for open-top driving.
3536 Power | Transmission
To make something happen,
you have to be able to convey your principles.
Transmission.
1 Power transmission in 1st gear
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK)
All of the new 911 Turbo models
feature the enhanced PDK transmission
with manual and automatic modes.
Porsche engineers have yet again
increased the speed and smoothness
of gear shifts. For the driver, this
means even faster shifting through
the gears without interrupting the flow of power. Acceleration
is exceptional, fuel consumption
is optimized, and performance is
delivered at a high level of comfort.
PDK has seven gears at its disposal.
Gears 1 through 6 have a sport ratio
and top speed is reached in 6th gear.
The 7th gear has a long ratio and
helps to reduce fuel consumption
by keeping engine revs low.
PDK is essentially t wo transmissions in
one. This double-clutch arrangement
provides an alternating, non-positive
connection between the two half gearboxes and the engine by means
of t wo separate input shafts.
The flow of power from the engine is
transmit ted through one half gearbox
and one clutch at a time, while the
next gear is preselected in the second
half gearbox. During a gear change, one clutch simply opens and the other
closes at the same time, enabling shifts
to take place within milliseconds.
Depending on the gearshift program
(Sport button activated or deactivated),
the shift of gears is optimized for
comfort or for sporty driving.With the optional Sport Chrono Package
(standard in the 911 Turbo S models),
PDK is enhanced by the Launch
Control and motorsport-derived
gearshift strategy functions.

Coasting
The coasting function enables you
to save even more fuel when the
situation allows. In coast mode,
the engine is decoupled from the
transmission to prevent deceleration
caused by engine braking. Optimal use
is made of the vehicle’s momentum,
allowing the 911 Turbo to seamlessly
coast at certain times while
consuming significantly less fuel.
It works like this: Say, for example,
you want to slow down from 65 mph to
55 mph in anticipation of the change
of speed limit ahead. As soon as you
release the accelerator pedal, PDK deselects the current gear automatically
and you begin to coast in Neutral
until you have reached your desired
speed. The moment you engage the
accelerator or brake pedal, PDK selects
the appropriate gear smoothly and
seamlessly within a fraction of a second.
Another way the coast function helps
reduce fuel consumption is when you’re
driving downhill. If the gradient is gentle
enough for you to maintain a constant
speed, the transmission decouples
the drive power to save fuel. Yet PDK
remains ready to respond as swiftly
and precisely as you would expect.
In short, driving in coasting mode makes
a real impact on fuel consumption
without any need for compromise on
comfort or sporty performance.

The chassis on the new 911 Turbo
features a longer wheelbase and
an even wider track. But make no
mistake: The 911 Turbo is still about
shortening distances: bet ween entry
and exit, bet ween one cit y and the next,
bet ween you and driving pleasure.
Changes to the chassis dimensions on
the new 911 Turbo enable smoother high-
speed maneuvers and exceptionally high
levels of stability. Its cornering agility
can scarcely be described in words. The new rear-axle steering transforms
the cornering feel of the new
911 Turbo. Handling is much more
responsive at low speeds. And at
higher speeds, stabilit y is increased.
Other contributions to the 911 Turbo
driving experience are made by its
chassis control systems: Porsche
Stability Management (PSM), Porsche
Active Suspension Management (PASM),
and Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control
(PDCC), which is standard in the new
911 Turbo S models and available
as an option for the 911 Turbo and
the new 911 Turbo Cabriolet.
Each of these systems is detailed
in the following pages. For now,
all you need to know is: Longer
and wider is a good thing.
Longer and wider, it still gets to the point in the shortest amount of
time possible.
