2014 PORSCHE 911 TARGA4 four wheel drive

Another reason why the avant garde
has now been left behind.
Power transmission.
7-speed manual transmission.
Pure, direct, precise. Short shift move -
ments and an optimum transition from
one gear to the next. Fit ted as standard,
the 7-speed manual transmission com -
bines a high level of sport y performance
with fast gear changes. When the SPORT
PLUS but ton is activated, the dynamic
throttle-blip function ensures optimum
engine speed when changing down –
and an impressive sound.
A gear indicator in the rev counter
reminds you which gear has been
selected. The upshift indicator in the
instrument cluster helps you to actively
conserve fuel.
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK).
A piece of Le Mans, a part of Porsche
motorsport history: Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK). 7-speed PDK is
available as an option.
On the road or on the track, it facilitates
extremely fast gear changes within
milliseconds and with no interrup tion in
the flow of power, while at the same time
improving acceleration. Gears one to six
are sport y; the seventh gear has a long
ratio for bet ter fuel economy.
PTM (Porsche Traction Management).
The all-wheel-drive 911 Targa 4 GTS
combines a high level of performance
with optimum power transmission.
PTM (Porsche Traction Management),
the active all-wheel-drive system,
provides power distribution that adapts
to varying road and weather conditions.
For exceptional traction – especially at
the limits of dynamic driving. It comprises
an active all-wheel- drive system with an
electronically controlled multi-plate
clutch, automatic brake differential (ABD)
and anti-slip regulation (ASR). Drive power is distributed bet ween the
permanently driven rear axle and the
front axle by means of the electronically
variable multi-plate clutch. 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 threaten
to spin under acceleration, a greater
proportion of drive force is distributed to
the front. In addition, ASR prevents
wheel spin by adapting engine power
output. When cornering, the front wheels
only ever receive as much drive force

as is necessary to maintain optimum
lateral stability.

2 emissions, please refer to page 40.

Brakes.
The front axle features red, six-piston
aluminium monobloc fixed brake calipers
while the rear wheels are equipped with
four-piston equivalents. The brake disc
diameter is 340 mm at the front and
330 mm at the rear. The results are
enhanced stability and excellent
braking performance.
Available as an option is the track-proven
Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake
(PCCB). The cross-drilled ceramic brake
discs all have a diameter of 350 mm.
The use of six-piston aluminium monobloc
fixed brake calipers at the front and four-
piston units at the rear – all finished in
yellow – ensures extremely high brake
forces which, crucially, are exceptionally
consistent. The demands of racetrack use mean

that additional maintenance tasks
will be required alongside the routine
maintenance work scheduled as part
of standard maintenance intervals.
Bi-Xenon main headlights including
Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS).
Bi-Xenon main headlights in black with
dynamic range control and a headlight
cleaning system are a standard feature.
Even greater visibilit y is provided by the
dynamic cornering lights in the Porsche
Dynamic Light System (PDLS). It swivels
the headlights towards the inside of a
bend, based on steering angle and
road speed.

The smoked LED front light units
incorporate direction indicators, daytime
running lights and position lights.
LED main headlights including Porsche
Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS +
).
Superior safety, sporty design: LED main
headlights with PDLS +
are available as
optional equipment. Integrated into each
headlight housing are four LED spots
for the daytime running lights and one
LED light ring.
In addition to being efficient and durable,
LED technology also creates a light very
similar to daylight and thus helps to
reduce driver fatigue. One special feature of PDLS
+
is the
dynamic main beam function. A camera
detects the lights of vehicles ahead as
well as those of oncoming traffic. Based
on the data from the camera, the
dynamic main beam function then adapts
the headlight range accordingly. This
continuous, stepless control means that
you are able to see the course of the
road, pedestrians and potential hazards
earlier without hindering other road users.
Nothing against aesthetic minimalism,
but here we’re radical maximalists.
Safety.
