1314 911 Tu r b o | Technology
The heart of the new 911 Turbo
models—located at the rear, as
always—is Porsche’s 6-cylinder boxer
engine. Displacing 3.8 liters, it uses
twin turbochargers with Variable Turbine
Geometry (V TG) and provides more power
than ever before. It ’s a more efficient
engine too, thanks to new technologies
including thermal management,
electrical system recuperation, and
features such as Auto Start Stop, an
improved Porsche Doppelkupplung
(PDK), and coasting function. Another new standard feature of the new
911 Turbo is rear-axle steering. Improving
both agility and stability, rear-axle steering
adapts to different driving situations.
On 911 Turbo S models, Porsche
Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC) is also
standard. PDCC actively adjusts chassis
characteristics to elevate the abilit y of
the 911 Turbo S to hold the road, both
in a straight line and when cornering.
And in the new 911 Turbo, the Porsche
Active Aerodynamics (PA A) system makes its transfer from the racetrack
to a production Porsche for the first
time. PA A adjusts the set tings of
both the front and the rear spoiler.
The result is greater stabilit y, lower
fuel consumption on the road, and
impressive times on the racetrack.
More power. Greater efficiency. Enhanced
chassis control and aerodynamics. In
addition, all new 911 Turbo models
also include as standard a reversing
camera and Adaptive Cruise Control
including Porsche Active Safe (PAS).
LED headlights, including Porsche
Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS
Plus), are standard in the 911 Turbo S
models and optional on the 911 Turbo
and the new 911 Turbo Cabriolet.
They provide excellent orientation
and make driving much less tiring.
The laws of physics.
Reinterpreted.
Engineering.
2728 Power | Engine
The new 911 Turbo engine adheres
to proven Porsche principles: rear-
mounted. With six cylinders and a total
displacement of 3.8 liters. And the
cylinders placed horizontally in two
opposite rows—what ’s referred to as
a “ flat-six” arrangement. It does not
deviate from this formula because the
typical Porsche “boxer” construction
and the rear-mounted position of the
engine create numerous advantages:
excellent balancing of masses as
dynamic loads change, a low-vibration
drive, and a low center of gravit y. But what ultimately transforms a Porsche
into a 911 Turbo are its t wo exhaust-
driven turbochargers. Together with
Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG), the
intake manifold, and VarioCam Plus,
the forced induction of compressed
air into the cylinders creates stunning
performance. On paper or on pavement,
there is nothing like a Porsche 911 Turbo.
The new 911 Turbo and the
new 911 Turbo Cabriolet deliver
520 horsepower available between
6000 and 6500 rpm, and 487 lb.-ft. of torque bet ween 1950 and 5000 rpm
(a
nd briefly up to 524 lb.-ft. with the
overboost function that comes with
the optional Sport Chrono Package).
The 911 Turbo S models have
560 horsepower available between
6500 and 6750 rpm. The maximum
torque is 516 lb.-ft., from 2100 –4250 rpm.
And it can increase to 553 lb.-ft., thanks
to the overboost function that comes
with the Sport Chrono Package, which
is standard on Turbo S models. This is efficient performance, thanks
to intelligent innovations that keep
the vehicle weight low and make
optimal use of fuel. These include new
efficiency-enhancing measures such as
thermal management, electrical system
recuperation, the Auto Start Stop
function, and the coasting function.
The essential ingredients are familiar.
Yet transformation is phenomenal.
Engine.
3334
Thermal Management
The thermal management system
regulates the temperature in the engine
and transmission through the intelligent
manipulation of heat flow. It allows the
engine and transmission to reach their
optimal operating temperatures sooner.
The result? Combustion efficiency and
lubrication performance are improved,
and fuel consumption is reduced.
Auto Start Stop Function
The Auto Start Stop function is standard
in the new 911 Turbo models. When
the speed falls below 4 mph and the
911 Turbo is decelerating normally, the
engine switches off. For example, as you
are slowing while approaching a red light.
Audio and communication systems
remain switched on. The climate
control continues to maintain your
selected temperature. The engine
starts again when you release the
brake or move the steering wheel.
The Auto Start Stop function may remain
inactive under particular circumstances,
for example if the bat tery charge is
low, when the Sport but ton is selected,
or when there are extreme outside
temperatures. It is also possible to
deactivate the function manually using a
separate button on the center console.
Electrical System Recuperation
Another fuel-saving innovation that’s
standard on the new 911 Turbo models
is electrical system recuperation
technology. It captures the energy
created during events such as braking.
The vehicle bat tery is recharged by
the alternator, predominantly under
braking. Under acceleration, on the
other hand, the power draw of the
alternator is limited to increase the
engine output available for driving.
The electrical systems are supplied
by the electrical energy stored
during the recharging process.

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.
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.

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.
