Airbags and Porsche Side Impact
Protection System (POSIP).
The new 911 models offer advanced
airbag technology in the form of full-size
driver and front passenger airbags, which
are inflated in t wo stages depending on
the severit y and t ype of accident.
All new 911
models are also equipped as
standard with the Porsche Side Impact
Protection System (POSIP). It comprises
side impact protection elements in the
doors and t wo airbags on each side. An
integral thorax airbag is located in each
seat side bolster, while the door panels
each contain an upwards-inflating head
airbag. Each thorax airbag has a volume
of 10 litres and each head airbag
15 litres, ensuring excellent protection
in the event of a side impact.
Roll-over protection.
In the 911 Carrera Cabriolet models,
an automatically deploying roll-over
protection system offers added
protection if the car were to overturn.
Two spring-loaded roll-over bars are
neatly incorporated behind the rear
seats. The roll-over sensor continuously
monitors the car’s pitch and roll, contact
with the road, as well as lateral and
longitudinal forces. The instant a potential
roll- over is detected, it initiates deployment
of the roll-over bars within fractions of a
second. For the 911 Targa 4 and
911 Targa 4S, added roll- over safet y is
provided by a steel protection system
concealed behind the aluminium trim of
the Targa roll bar.
