Porsche is proud to introduce the new Porsche 911 Carrera, a whole new generation of the legendary coupe, which has one of the benchmark sports car named the world since its launch in 1963, to present.

Tradition meets modernity

True to the tradition of 911, the striking design language Porsche radiates power and elegance. The unmistakable silhouette continues to receive the eye, while the integration of new, exciting lines and carefully crafted details, a 100 mm longer wheelbase for more stability and more interior room, front and rear overhangs are shorter, while maintaining a compact footprint, 911 is a long attribute is the sporty stance emphasized by the low roofline and a wider track increases to increase presence on the road further, while the famous trip.

Heck, flat-six cylinder as a symbolic component of identity 911, and behind the rear axle of the new car is an updated engine range, powerful, effective and impressive ‘Boxer’. The Porsche 911 Carrera has a new 3.4-liter engine to 350 hp and a 400 hp Carrera S powered version of the popular 3.8-liter. These new engines offer more power for both models. The 3.4-liter Carrera with PDK accelerates from 0-62 mph in 4.6 seconds, 0.1 seconds faster than its predecessor. Pressing the Sport Plus button on the optional Sport Chrono package cuts that to 4.4 seconds. The 3.8-liter Carrera S with PDK accelerates 0-62 mph in 4.3 seconds (4.1 sec Sport Plus), 0.2sec faster than its predecessor.

All-new lightweight body

Principle among the innovative step forward is the all-new, lightweight body with intelligent aluminum-steel composite construction. It is responsible for a significant proportion of vehicle weight reduction of up to 45 kg. The body also produces significantly greater stiffness and aerodynamic optimization – including a further variable on the rear wing – has reduced the impetus generated by the new 911 Carrera and simultaneously an impressive total drag factor.

Innovative chassis technology

That the 911 offers better acceleration in a straight line is obvious, but it also offers top performance at an unprecedented level in the entire dynamic repertoire. In addition to the longer wheelbase, more agility, precision and driving stability on the basis, inter alia, the wider track, a new rear axle and new electro-mechanical power steering.

Depending on the model, there are other standard or optional active control is available, to further improve the driving dynamics. This is especially true for the Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC) active roll stabilization, which reduces the first time the Porsche 911 Carrera S. This system is body roll when cornering, so the tires are always in the optimum position relative to the ground and thus in able to transmit greater lateral forces. Consequently, the maximum cornering speed and an even faster lap times on race tracks rose are possible.

Exterior design

The famous athletic look of the 911 is more dynamic with a 100mm longer wheelbase, low height and 20-inch alloy wheels. At the same time the typical compact exterior has been preserved. Viewed from the front, the eye is drawn to the brand, broad-arched wings, with a focus on the wider track and make the new 911 Carrera models to a sportier stance to take on the road. The newly designed exterior mirrors are now mounted on the upper edge of the door and no longer on the mirror triangle. This is not only aerodynamic advantages, but also highlighted the new design line and visual impression of width.

Indoor

In addition to the modern exterior created by Porsche Design an interior style that is geared to take on the Porsche Carrera GT. Or PDK – - close to the wheel motor sport in a typical way away, the driver is now closer to the cockpit through the center console rises up to the front with the integrated high-mounted shifter. Classic Porsche style elements are also indoors, so they are like on the outside. For example, the instrument cluster with five round instruments, the central rotary knob course the speedometer. On the right is a new, high-resolution multi-function display, only one of the added convenience features to the evolving needs of the client’s needs.

Porsche Intelligent Performance

Setting the standard in its class, as for generations, the new Porsche 911 Carrera and Carrera S raise the performance and efficiency standard to new levels. Consumption and emissions of all versions are up 16 percent compared to its predecessors. Among other things, this is achieved by systems and capabilities achieved as repair auto start / stop, thermal management, electrical system, the world’s first seven-speed gearbox and – in conjunction with the Porsche double-clutch transmission (PDK) – a ‘freewheel’ mode, the engine Disconnect for improved fuel efficiency, when the throttle is closed.

The new electro-mechanical power steering system provides not only the typical precision and feedback would expect from a Porsche, but also helps to increase efficiency and reduce fuel consumption. For example, the Porsche 911 Carrera in the new 350 hp (257 kW) 3.4-liter engine with direct injection and the optional PDK returns 34.4mpg based on the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) combines – 6mpg less than its predecessor. Even at 194 g / km CO2, it is to sit the first Porsche sports car to below 200 g / km CO2. In the case of the Carrera S with its 400 hp 3.8-liter engine with direct injection, the economy, if it lies with the optional PDK by 14 percent or 5 mpg to 32.4mpg combined, despite increases of 15 hp more power combined. This corresponds to CO2 emissions of 205 g / km.

Apparently it is therefore possible, in the new 911 Carrera even further expand the range of seemingly contradictory properties such as performance and efficiency, performance and practicality, which has always been the Porsche 911. One could say that the new 911 Carrera more than a 911 ever.

In the United Kingdom in December 2011

The new Porsche 911 Carrera from celebrating its world premiere at the IAA Frankfurt 2011 Motor Show and the new Porsche 911 models centers in the United Kingdom 17 December 2011.

The Porsche 911 Carrera is $ 71,449 and of £ of the Porsche 911 Carrera S starts at £ 81,242. Standard on all models and leather trim, sport seats, automatic climate control, Bi-Xenon headlights, seven-inch color touch screen Porsche Communication Management with satellite navigation, universal audio interface with MP3 connection, Porsche Stability Management (PSM) guarantees three years.

The Carrera S adds 20-inch alloy wheels, Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) and Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV) with a rear differential with limited slip, in addition to the power advantage of the larger 3.8-liter engine.

On every 911 is a Porsche Vehicle Tracking System (VTS), is approved an ambitious vehicle security package Thatcham Category 5 standard, and customers will be able to explore the potential of their new car by participating in a free course to explore the Porsche Experience Centre Silverstone.
