Most people, however, did not realise that they were witnessing the tively small and light yet extremely powerful 6-cylinder flat engine. We have followed this tradition unwaveringly ever since. Today, for example, we do so with unique technologies such as variable turbine geometry (VTG), which increases both the performance and efficiency of the turbo engine dramati- cally. • Design & functionality dawn of a new engine era.

The Turbo had set a new benchmark for sports cars. Right from the beginning a real technol- ogy pioneer, every generation of the 911 Turbo has represented the pinna- cle of technological feasibility with regard to performance. Even taking the model’s innovative his- tory to date into account, the new gen- eration 911 Turbo still represents an unusually major development step: What this clearly illustrates: the 911 Turbo is able to resolve what seem to be contradictory requirements at the highest level. In its core it is the perfect “all-rounder”. Its 8 disciplines: 1.

3 Highlights in detail 3.1 Exterior and interior design The design of the new 911 Turbo models embodies a perfect synthesis of power, elegance and functionality. This places the new 911 Turbo models in addition to their outstanding performance figures at the top of the 911 model line. The high performance potential is characterised by the striking 911 Turbo design characteristics which are striking Front view 911 Turbo without being overbearing. The exterior design with a 28 mm widened body com- pared to the 911 Carrera 4 models has been made even more sporty and more dynamic than the previous model. Front view The new 911 Turbo models have an un- mistakeable and independent face that underscores their undoubted special status both within the 911 model series and when compared with competitors.

Rear view The rear design of the new 911 Turbo models is even more dynamic and pow- erful than on predecessor models. With its clearly defined individual compo- nents and its highly contoured end sec- tion, the new rear design has an even more powerful, yet elegant appearance. The body, which has been widened by 28 mm compared with the current 911 Carrera 4 models, and the adjustable wing element (incl. tilt function) as an element of Porsche Active Aero dynam- ics (PAA) are characteristic and forma- tive. It has the basic form of a classical Rear view 911 Turbo wing element but has a sharper shape and together with the narrower wing tray and the imposing rear lid grille has been more harmoniously integrated in the overall rear design. The narrow tail lights of the new 911 generation with LED technology are perfectly integrated into the rear apron and visually reinforce the broad shoul- ders of the new 911 Turbo models both in their position as well as their shape. The rear light design is rounded off with LED registration plate illumination and the side reflectors in the lower part of the rear apron.

The overboost function is new in the 911TurboS. With this function, which has been added to the 911 Turbo S for tors to be supplied with more cooling air, improving radiator performance even further. The additional airblades are also fitted as standard in the 911 Turbo in extremely hot countries. the first time, the maximum boost pres- sure is increased by approx. 0.15bar in the medium rev range for up to 20sec. when the SPORT or SPORT Plus button VarioCam Plus is pressed, increasing the maximum torque to 750 Nm. To ensure the durability of the new 911 Turbo engines and thus the increased power and torque figures, the pistons were reinforced and adapted. This The boost pressure without overboost in the new 911 Turbo S is a maximum of 1.2bar, placing it, like the previous models, at about 0.2 bar above that of enabled the maximum pressures to be increased by more than 10% and the 911 Turbo.
