Highlights 13
Our formula for success could not be more
simple: more ideas per hp. Applied to the
drive system of our cars, this means
greater power output, but lower fuel
consumption.
This formula is also employed by the new
911 Carrera: thanks to their turbocharged
engines offering immediate responsiveness,
considerably more torque and even greater
power output. In other words, huge power
and immediate acceleration, combined with
the high rpm limit and legendary sound of a
911 six-cylinder horizontally opposed
engine.
We’re always searching for the shortest
route. Direction: future. The next gear change is no exception. That ’s why the
7-speed manual transmission is precise and
athletic, just like the optimised Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK). Featuring six sporty
gears and a long-ratio seventh gear,
PDK delivers even better figures – for
acceleration and fuel consumption. That ’s
how we interpret efficiency.
You can also rely on peak performance
thanks to new active air intake flaps.
Depending on driving style and manner,
they act to reduce air resistance – or
improve cooling performance. The
intelligent way to get ahead.
How do we defend our position?
By always being one idea ahead.
Drive and efficiency.

At Porsche, there are no conventions.
Forbidding free thought? That ’s forbidden.
The only thing that matters is this question:
how can we become even better? Let ’s put
it another way: can we redefine the limits of
engineering? Yes, we can. With Intelligent
Performance.
The new 911 answers questions about the
future of the sports car with a quantum
leap in performance. By reducing fuel
consumption, but not by suppressing
emotions. By following a principle that has
already changed everything once before:
in 1974, with the first 911 Turbo. Developed completely from scratch, the
six-cylinder twin-turbo boxer engines of the
911 Carrera models with a displacement
of 3.0 litres embrace this principle and
perfect it in a future-bound way. To be more
precise: tremendous acceleration force
even in the low rpm range is supplemented
by the engine map of a 911 Carrera with
the high rev limits typical of a sports car.
Expressed in figures, this means an extra
15 kW (20 hp) of power, an extra 60 Nm
of torque and engine speeds of up to
7,500 rpm. And a considerable reduction
in fuel consumption of up to 12
%.
The engine of the 911 Carrera develops
272 kW (370 hp). The maximum torque of
450 Nm is available from as low as
1,700 rpm. With Porsche Doppelkupplung
(PDK), the 911 Carrera can accelerate
from 0 to 100 km/ h in only 4.4 seconds
and reach a top speed of 293 km/ h.
We could sit back in the slipstream of our own tradition.

Active air intake flaps.
The active air intake flaps in the front air
intakes act to reduce fuel consumption
during everyday trips and to achieve
superlative performance on sporty drives.
As on the 918 Spyder, the flaps close
automatically while the car is in motion and
thereby reduce drag. On demand or in
SPORT or SPORT PLUS mode, the flaps
open and help to provide optimum engine
cooling.
This means that cooling air is supplied only
to the extent that it is actually needed.
That ’s efficiency. Of the intelligent kind.

7-speed manual transmission.
Pure, direct, precise. The 7-speed manual
transmission combines a high level of
sporty performance with fast gear changes.
In conjunction with the optional Sport
Chrono Package, selecting SPORT or
SPORT PLUS mode activates the dynamic
throttle-blip function, which ensures the
optimum engine speed for every downshift,
a more emotional driving experience 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 conserve fuel.
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK).
The optimised 7-speed PDK, featuring both
a manual and an automatic mode, offers
extremely fast gear changes with no
interruption in the flow of power – together
with even faster acceleration performance
and lower fuel consumption.
A first for the 911 Carrera models: with PDK
in manual mode, the shift direction simulates
that of racing cars and the 911 GT3 models –
towards the rear to shift up, forwards to shift
down. For a racetrack driving experience
wherever you are.
Gears one to six have a sports ratio and
top speed is reached in sixth gear. Seventh
gear is ratioed primarily for fuel economy.
Always a few milliseconds ahead of time.
