56 911 Tu r b o | Concept
Given that the starting point is the
most recent 911 Turbo, how do
you make a new 911 Turbo that
performs at an even higher level?
How do you make its engine produce
more power with less fuel? Its
transmission shift more seamlessly,
its suspension grip the road with
more traction, and its brakes shed
speed with even more force and less
fade? Its exterior more aerodynamic
and its interior more functional and
comfortable? How do you make its
safety engineering more advanced? How do you, in other words, evolve
the legendary 911 Turbo and
enhance its capabilities—without
diluting its essential character?
It ’s a daunting challenge, yet
one Porsche engineers confront
with clear-eyed goals and race-
proven technical innovations.
There are measurable objectives:
improved g-force, horsepower, and
torque outputs, shorter braking
distances, and quicker zero-to-sixty
times. And there are more subjective considerations: the sound of the engine,
the support of the seats, the feeling of
confidence and control that results from
a total synergy bet ween car and driver.
It ’s a process that requires, above all,
patience. A new technology may take
time to translate its advantages to meet
the aims of a Porsche. A promising
idea may prove less so when subjected
to our test circuit at Weissach or to
the extreme demands of endurance
races like the 24 Hours of Le Mans
or the Twelve Hours of Sebring.
But the reward for following a highly
disciplined process is unquestionable.
With each successive 911 Turbo,
Porsche engineers have demonstrated
that ever-higher levels of performance
remain to be discovered.
And the new 911 Turbo is no exception.
With 90 percent of its components
redeveloped, it once again provides a
new reference for Porsche excellence.
At Porsche, we prefer to lead by example.

To Porsche engineers, the 911 Turbo
has always been about turning the
theoretical into the phenomenal.
It has been relentless work, with
countless long hours over the
decades spent seeking incremental
improvements, fighting for every gram
of weight reduction, every increase in
horsepower, and every split second of
speed. Each breakthrough has pushed
the limits of possibilit y, and each stage
has established the next starting point. Once again we have arrived at an
entirely new 911 Turbo, with more
power than that of previous models:
520 horsepower at 6000 – 6500 rpm
and a maximum torque of 487 lb.-ft.
The sprint from 0 – 60 mph can be
achieved in as lit tle as 3.2 seconds.
The optional Sport Chrono Package
reduces this figure even more:
to just 3.0 seconds. And the new
911 Turbo now uses Porsche Active
Aerodynamics (PA A) to dynamically
optimize the level of traction at speed.The power of its new 3.8-liter
twin-turbo engine combined with
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK)
and active all-wheel-drive Porsche
Traction Management (PTM)
results in a new 911 Turbo with a
top track speed of 195 mph.
A trio of technologies help the new
911 Turbo balance handling precision
with ride comfort. They feature new
rear-axle steering, Porsche Active
Suspension Management (PASM), and
Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV
Plus) including rear differential lock. At each corner of the new 911 Turbo
are 20-inch, 10-spoke wheels in a
unique two-tone combination.
The interior follows one clear line:
sport y, yet comfortable. Leather
trim is standard as are the Power
Sport Seats including electric
steering-column adjustment.
Porsche Communication Management
(PCM) with navigation module brings
all information together clearly and
has intuitive controls. The Bose
®
Surround Sound System enhances the
typical Porsche melody with another
impressive symphonic experience.
Four decades of refinement.

The 911 Turbo S comes standard with
Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control
(PDCC). Together with Porsche Active
Suspension Management (PASM)—a
system that electronically adjusts the
firmness of the shock absorbers—and
Porsche Stabilit y Management (PSM), it
ensures that the 911 Turbo S sets new
standards in terms of chassis control.Composure is also generated by the
Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes
(PCCB). This high-performance braking
system first proved its stopping power
and durabilit y on the racetrack and is
now standard on the 911 Turbo S.
In the 911 Turbo S interior, exclusive
materials create a unique impression:
the two-tone Leather interior package
in Black and Carrera Red. The interior trim in Carbon. The door-entry guards
with the “ turbo S” logo. The Adaptive
Sport Seats Plus with 18-way adjustment,
driver seat memory, and Leather-covered
backrest shell with double seam.
High levels of comfort are provided
by other standard features, including
cruise control, front and rear ParkAssist,
and the new LED headlights in
conjunction with the Porsche Dynamic
Light System Plus (PDLS Plus).The new 911 Turbo S is identifiable
at the rear by the “ turbo S” logo and
the dark chrome tailpipe trim, and
at the side by the new SportDesign
exterior mirrors with V-shaped
base. At all four corners forged
20 -inch 911 Turbo S wheels are
highlighted by a central locking device
perfected on Porsche race cars.
Performance that generates composure.
At Porsche, it ’s not a paradox. It ’s
standard in the new 911 Turbo S.

Cabriolet Top
The fabric roof in the new 911 Turbo
Cabriolet models has been completely
revised. It uses three integrated
supporting elements made from
magnesium. Light yet strong, the
magnesium components make the top
extremely stable at high speeds—
without adding unnecessary weight.
The magnesium structure also creates a
top that is smooth and taut. The fabric
is close-fit ting and forms a line that is
even more elegant than in the previous
model. Yet the benefit is far from being
just superficial. The firm fabric roof of the
new 911 Turbo Cabriolet models helps
achieve a drag coefficient of just 0.31. The glass rear window is
scratch-re
sistant and heated. A
water
-de
flecting edge on the top
helps prevent rainwater from dripping
onto you when you open the doors.
The top is operated electrically by
a but ton in the center console, and
it opens or closes in approximately
13 seconds—at speeds of up to
31 mph. The top folds in a Z-shape so
the inside is always well-protected.
Inside, the roof is covered with
heat- and noise-insulating material,
resulting in uniform interior
temperatures and effective wind
noise suppression. What do you hear
instead? That unmistakable sound of
the Porsche Turbo exhaust note.
Electric Wind Deflector
Developed in a wind tunnel and made
for relative wind: The 911 Turbo
Cabriolet models come standard with
a new electric wind deflector. This
ensures that you can drive with the
top down with minimal wind noise,
and without sacrificing the car’s low
drag coefficient. You can extend and
retract the wind deflector at speeds
of up to 75 mph—at the press of a
but ton and in only t wo seconds. Manually fit ting and removing the wind
deflector is no longer necessary. It is
now integrated directly into the body and
rests behind the back seats, so it does
not need any additional space inside the
vehicle or in the luggage compartment
and is ready to use at any time.

Body
The innovative bodyshell of the new
911 Turbo models fulfills t wo structural
design requirements: first, excellent
driving dynamics due to the body’s
extremely high rigidit y. Second, a
savings in vehicle weight, primarily due
to its intelligent lightweight construction.
To meet the second requirement, we
employed state-of-the-art techniques
for combining various materials in order
to utilize specific material properties
exactly where they are needed.
Take the bodyshell, for example. It uses
very thin—but extremely rigid—sheets
of steel. Aluminum and magnesium
were utilized extensively in areas
including the roof, underbody, doors,
engine compartment, and luggage compartment lids. Magnesium, which
is a particularly lightweight material,
was also selected for the cockpit
and center console support beam.
Reducing the overall weight—i.e.,
improving the power-to-weight ratio—
translates directly into the aim of
increasing performance, whether
that ’s measured by the acceleration,
steering, or braking. And it ’s measurable
another way, too: at the fuel pump.
Reduced fuel consumption.
For the driver, reducing the weight
of the 911 Turbo results in a high
level of comfort as well. Vibration-
damping characteristics are
excellent and, compared to the
previous model, torsional stiffness
has increased up to 25 percent to
create even sportier handling.
Airbags and the Po
rsche Side Impact
Protection (POSIP) System
The airbag technology in the new 911 Turbo
models provides full-size driver and front-
passenger airbags, which are inflated in t wo
stages depending on the severit y and t ype
of accident. In less serious accidents, the
airbags are only partially inflated to help
minimize discomfort to the occupants.
Another standard feature is the Porsche
Side Impact Protection (POSIP) system.
This system comprises side impact
protection elements in the doors and t wo
airbags on each side, an integral thorax
airbag located in each seat side bolster,
and a head airbag contained in each of
the door panels. Knee airbags are also
standard on all 911 Turbo models.
Rollover Protection in the
Cabriolet Models
Despite their light weight, the 911 Turbo
Cabriolet models have exemplary
torsional rigidit y and flexural strength.
Body flexing is minimal, especially when
compared with driving most other open-
top sports cars on uneven road surfaces.
In the event of a 911 Turbo Cabriolet
model rolling over, additional protection
is provided by a supplemental safet y
roll bar protection system that deploys
automatically. The two spring-loaded
rollover bars are located behind
the back seats. The rollover sensor
continuously monitors the car’s pitch
and roll, lateral and longitudinal
acceleration, and contact with the road.
In an emergency, it deploys the rollover
bars within a fraction of a second.

With the new 911 Turbo models, our
engineers have pushed forward into
the extreme performance range. The
fact that the driver can remain quite
composed is also due to the answers
they have found to the questions about
sportiness, ergonomics, and comfort.
Interior
A Porsche interior is never frivolous,
always direct. In the new 911 Turbo,
clever technology and clear operating
logic allow the driver to experience
all that makes this the benchmark for
Porsche performance, as evident at once
from the ascending center console. In t ypical Porsche fashion, the use of form
follows a basic principle: Focus on the
driver. It ’s why the distance bet ween
the gear selector and steering wheel is
extremely short, and the operating logic
of systems such as the dual-zone air
conditioning or the suspension is clear
and uncomplicated. You shouldn’t have to
browse one submenu after another. You
should instead be able to concentrate on
what ’s singularly important: the road.
Materials of high qualit y define the sport y
character of each 911 Turbo model.
The standard Leather package includes
Leather seats, dashboard, and door and
side trims. Alcantara
® has proven its
worth in motorsport and is now standard
for the roof liner on the Coupe models.
The exclusive two-tone interior in Black
and Carrera Red is reserved especially
for the 911 Turbo S models. Dashboard,
center console, and door panel trim
strips in Carbon are standard in these
models (available as an option for the
911 Turbo and 911 Turbo Cabriolet).
In addition to the choice of Black,
Platinum Grey, Luxor Beige, and Yachting
Blue for the interior, there is a wide range
of other personalization options available, including two-tone color combinations
or special colors and materials such as
Carbon, Aluminum, or high-quality Wood.
Engineering that takes you forward: the
Porsche Communication Management
(PCM) system with navigation module
and a high-resolution 7-inch color
touchscreen. PCM is your control
center for audio, navigation, and
communication functions. It’s fitted as
standard in the new 911 Turbo models.
Inside, yet another Porsche extreme:
extreme quiet.
