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.

1 Fast cornering with the 911 Tu
rbo without PDCC (i llustration) |
2 Fast cornering with the 911 Tu rbo S w ith PDCC (illustration)
PDCC optimizes camber using
hydraulic stabilizing actuators in
the form of cylinders. Lateral roll is
counteracted by forces generated
at each individual wheel, based on
steering angle and lateral acceleration.
How does this translate to the
driving experience? More dynamic
performance with optimized turn-in and
stable load transfer characteristics.
And increased ride comfort. Porsche Stability Management (PSM)
All new 911 Turbo models come with
enhanced Porsche Stability Management
(PSM). It helps maintain stability
even at the limits of dynamic driving
performance. Sensors continuously
monitor the direction, speed, yaw
velocit y, and lateral acceleration of
the car. Using this information, PSM is
able to calculate the actual direction of
travel at any given moment. If the car
begins to oversteer or understeer, PSM
applies selective braking on individual
wheels to help restore stability.
Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control
(PDCC)
Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC)
is standard on 911 Turbo S models and
available as an option on 911 Turbo
models. PDCC is an active anti-roll
system that suppresses lateral body
movement during cornering maneuvers
and helps minimize the lateral instability
of the vehicle on uneven ground. The
result is a car with improved roadholding
and more dynamic performance.
Under acceleration on wet or low-grip
road surfaces, PSM improves traction
using the Automatic Brake Differential
(ABD) and Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR).
When the Sport Plus mode of the
Sport Chrono Package is selected,
the PSM threshold is raised to allow
a more assertive driving st yle.
PSM can be deactivated. But for your
safety, it is automatically reactivated
only if you brake hard enough that
either of the front wheels (in Sport
Plus mode, both of the front wheels)
requires ABS (Anti-lock Brake
System) assistance. ABS and ABD,
however, remain active at all times.

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.
6768 Responsibility | Environment
Porsche has increased efficiency in all
of its current series while at the same
time increasing performance. This is
achieved by an efficient drive, thanks
to Direct Fuel Injection (DFI), Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK), Variable Turbine
Geometry (V TG) and VarioCam Plus,
intelligent lightweight construction, active
aerodynamics, and low rolling resistance. A high level of environmental
responsibilit y is ensured not least
by Porsche’s own environmental
management teams in Weissach. They
ensure that all developments take
account of environmental compatibility.
The objective is to achieve pure
performance, but not at the expense
of the environment. This also applies
to the new 911 Turbo models.
All automotive manufacturers look
to the future. After all, the life-span
of an automobile from inception to
the end of its functional life can span
decades or even longer. So what
the world needs in 15 to 20 years,
Porsche engineers must address now.
Our focus is always on this: ultimate
performance with ultimate efficiency.
What we find when we go our own way:
solutions.
Environment.
Exhaust Emissions Control
At Porsche, our cars have long
demonstrated that even high-performance
sports cars can achieve moderate fuel
consumption and exhaust emissions
values in their respective category. The new 911 Turbo is no exception. It
uses technologies such as Auto Start
Stop, thermal management, electrical
system recuperation, Direct Fuel Injection
(DFI), VarioCam Plus, and coasting
to help optimize fuel efficiency.And the cataly tic converters provide
efficient emissions control.
The stereo lambda sensor controls
and monitors each cylinder bank
separately. For each exhaust tract, oxygen sensors regulate the composition
of the exhaust gas, while another
lambda sensor on each cylinder bank
monitors pollutant conversion in the
respective catalytic converter.

HomeLink®
As standard, a HomeLink® system
integrated into the overhead console
lets you control entry gates, garage
doors, lighting systems, and home
securit y systems at the touch of a
but ton. The device allows you to
control up to three different systems.
Luggage Compartment
The luggage compartment volume in
the new 911 Turbo models is four cubic
feet. The luggage compartment is fully
trimmed in scratch-resistant materials.
Roof Transport System
An aluminum Roof Transport System
is available as an option for the
new 911 Turbo Coupe models. It
is aerodynamically efficient, very
light weight, and easy to fit. A range
of attachments is available, including
a roof box, a bike carrier, or a ski/
snowboard carrier. The maximum
roof load is 165 pounds .
Anti-Theft Protection
The new 911 Turbo models are equipped
as standard with an immobilizer with
in-key transponder and an alarm system
with radar-based interior surveillance.
The system secures the doors,
luggage compartment, passenger
compartment, and ignition lock.
Auto-Dimming Mirrors
An auto-dimming function is standard
for the interior and exterior mirrors.
Also included is an integrated rain
sensor for the front wiper system.
ParkAssist
Park Assist at the rear is standard on
the new 911 Turbo models. Featuring
four inconspicuous sensors in the rear
end, the system audibly alerts the driver
to the presence of obstacles detected
behind the vehicle. An intermit tent
warning tone increases in rapidity
as the obstacle is approached.
In the new 911 Turbo S and the new
911 Turbo S Cabriolet, Park Assist
is supplemented by four sensors at the front (available as an option
for the new 911 Turbo and the new
911 Turbo Cabriolet). The audible alert
is supplemented by a visual warning
in the central display screen, which
shows a graphical representation
of the vehicle from overhead.

Light Design Package
The optional light design package is both
practical and aesthetically appealing. It
comprises dimmable LEDs in the over-
head console and in the areas of the
rear seats, door openers, door storage
compartments, and front foot wells.
Porsche Entry & Drive
With the optional Porsche Entry & Drive,
you can leave your car key in your pocket.
As soon as you grab the door handle
or approach the luggage compartment,
the system automatically checks the
encrypted access code on the key. Once
the key is validated, the door and the
luggage compartment lid unlock. The
engine can then be started and switched
off using the electronic ignition switch. To lock the vehicle, you simply press
the but ton on the outside of the door
handle. Porsche Entry & Drive then locks
the vehicle and activates the engine
immobilizer and steering-column lock.
Glass Tilt/Slide Sunroof
For the 911 Turbo Coupe
models, a power-adjustable tilt /
slide sunroof is available in tinted
single-glazed safety glass.
An integral power sunblind provides
shade from unwanted bright light. The
design, headroom, and aperture of
the glass roof are identical to those
of the steel tilt /slide sunroof. The
only difference is that, even when
closed, the glass sunroof still gives
you that open-to-the-sky feeling.
Reversing Camera
The optional reversing camera (only in
conjunction with ParkAssist front and
rear) facilitates reverse parking and
maneuvering. Help is provided in the
form of a high-contrast color image
with dynamic guidelines on the PCM
screen, which shows the predicted
course of the vehicle based on the
current position of the steering wheel.
Cruise Control
For greater driver comfort on long
stretches of road, this automatic
speed control function is standard on
the 911 Turbo and Turbo S models.
Cruise control operates above 19 m p h
and is activated using a but ton on
the steering-column control stalk.
Adaptive Cruise Control Including
Po
rsche Active Safe (PAS)
Available as an option, this cruise
control function regulates your speed
according to the distance bet ween
your vehicle and the vehicle in front.
A radar sensor monitors the road
ahead at up to a distance of 656 feet.
If you have set a cruising speed but
have begun to gain on the vehicle in
front because it is driving more slowly,
this is detected by the radar sensor.
The system now reduces the speed
of your vehicle up to a maximum
rate of 11 f t . /s e c by restricting
the throt tle or gently applying the
brakes, until the distance that you
have preset is maintained. Your
vehicle will now continue at a reduced speed. If the other vehicle decelerates
further, Adaptive Cruise Control will
continue to reduce your cruising
speed— even down to a complete stop.
For additional safet y, if the system
detects that the distance from the
vehicle in front is decreasing, it will
also prepare your vehicle for braking
by precharging the braking system
so that the brake pads are already
in light contact with the brake discs.
However, drivers still have to perform
heavier braking themselves.
As soon as the road ahead clears again,
your vehicle will accelerate back up
to the cruising speed originally set.
If your vehicle approaches the vehicle
in front too quickly, Porsche Active
Safe (PAS) will issue audible and visual
warnings. In addition, the system briefly
jerks the brakes and if necessary
initiates target braking, with any braking
pressure applied by the driver being
increased within certain system limits.
