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.

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.

2 Stabilizing effect of rear-axle steering
Power | Chassis
Rear-Axle Steering
Porsche engineers have always factored
in the positive effect of passive rear-
wheel steering—the slight articulation
of the rear wheels to “ toe in” or “ toe
out ” when cornering. Thanks to the new
rear-axle steering that ’s standard on all
new 911 Turbo models, that effect is no
longer passive. Two electromechanical
actuators located on the rear axle
steer the rear wheels of the new
911 Turbo models up to approximately
2.8 degrees in the same or opposite
direction as the steering angle on the
front axle, depending on speed. At speeds of up to 31 mph, the system
steers the rear wheels in the opposite
direction to that of the front wheels.
This has the virtual effect of shortening
the wheelbase. The turning circle
is reduced, steering into corners
becomes much more dynamic, and
parking is noticeably easier.
At speeds above 50 mph, the system
steers the rear wheels in the same
direction as that of the front wheels.
The effect is a virtual extension of
the wheelbase for increased stability
during high-speed maneuvers—a
cruising-speed lane change on
the interstate, for example.Bet ween 31 and 50 mph, the
steering direction is constantly
changing, depending on the driving
conditions. Thanks to the excellent
stabilizing properties of rear-axle
steering, it has also been possible
to make the steering ratio on the
front axle more direct around the
central position. The advantage is
greater agilit y at higher speeds.
There is no contradiction between
stability and agility, performance,
and everyday practicalit y. The new
rear-axle steering results in greater
maneuverability in day-to-day
driving—and a clearly noticeable
increase in maximum performance.
8384 1Personality | Audio and communication
Powerful, functional, and easy to use.
Isn’t that how everything in a Porsche is supposed to be?
Audio and communication.
Porsche Communication
Management (PCM)
Including Navigation Module
Porsche Communication Management
(PCM) is standard equipment in the
new 911 Turbo models. PCM is your
control center for audio, navigation,
and communication functions.
The main feature is the intuitive 7-inch
color touchscreen. Or you can choose
to operate PCM using conventional
rotary push-but ton controls. With a
maximum of five list items per page, the screen display is very clearly
presented. Radio functions include
up to 42 memory presets and an FM
twin-tuner frequency diversity with
RDS, which continuously scans in
the background for the best signal.
The DVD audio drive plays CDs and
audio DVDs and is MP3-compatible.
Audio playback of video DVDs
is also supported. A 6-disc CD/
DVD changer integrated into
PCM is available as an option.
The standard universal audio interface
(AUX) USB port in the glove compartment
enables you to connect your iPod
® or
any audio source. Recharging is also
supported. Once connected, your
iPod
® or USB stick is then conveniently
and safely operated via the PCM, the
optional multifunction steering wheel,
or the optional voice-control system.
Podcasts and audiobooks are recognized
and played and cover art is displayed.
The navigation module in PCM allows you to choose bet ween a 2-D display and
a 3-D perspective. In some regions, it
is possible to display the terrain (with
a superimposed satellite map) and
buildings in 3-D. Split-screen mode
enables you to view t wo functions at
once, such as the current navigation
map and a list of symbols that
represent the next driving maneuver.
