Porsche 911 Turbo 2013

Porsche model offensive on the anniversary of the 911 is reaching new heights. 50 years ago, the 911 made its debut at the Frankfurt International Auto Show. And just ten years later, the first prototype 911 Turbo in Frankfurt. Today the 40th anniversary of Porsche presents the new generation 911 Turbo and Turbo S - the peak of technological performance and dynamics of the 911 series. New four-wheel drive, active management of the rear axle, the aerodynamic adaptive headlights all LEDs and up to 560 hp flat six-cylinder bi-turbo emphasize the role of the new generation 911 Turbo as a race car circuit platform technology and everyday cars.
Playing equally important roles are completely new lightweight chassis with a wheelbase 100 mm longer and larger 20-inch wheels. PDCC active roll system, available for the first time in the 911 Turbo, increased even more dynamic performance. This system is standard on the 911 Turbo S, as the Sport Chrono package with dynamic engine and PCCB ceramic brakes, all these features are also available as an option on the 911 Turbo. The result: the new 911 Turbo S is shortened turnaround time of the Nürburgring Nordschleife well below 7:30 minutes - naturally with standard production tires. The standard sound symposer intensifies the driving experience, it passes the admission turbo engine into the passenger compartment through a membrane speaker.

More power, better fuel economy by 16 percent

performance partners in the field of propulsion systems of the most advanced engines and new AWD system PTM. The six-cylinder 3.8 liter turbocharged direct injection produces 520 horsepower (383 kilowatts) to the 911 Turbo and 560 hp (412 kW) in the model S. Porsche is the only manufacturer to offer two turbochargers with variable turbine geometry for a gasoline engine.

Power is transmitted to the transmission through the transmission seven-speed dual-clutch (PDK), which now allows you to start / stop the engine stop function, now activated after coast car stopped, and cabotage function. With the new thermal management system for the engine and transmission Turbo PDK, the energy efficiency technologies have reduced the NEDC fuel consumption by up to 16 percent to 9.7 l/100 km and these figures are both models.

AWD new command electrohydraulic

For distribution faster and more accurate on both axes energy, Porsche has developed a new AWD system (PTM) with multiple electronically controlled coupling activated. The system is equipped with a new function of the cooling water so that it can direct more torque to the front wheels if necessary. At the same time, the optimal interaction of all-wheel drive technology engine, transmission and make the new top 911 for even better speed capabilities. The 911 Turbo with the optional Sport Chrono Package accelerates from zero to 100 km / h in 3.2 seconds, which is still more than a tenth of the value of the previous 911 Turbo S. The new 911 Turbo S is responsible for the standard sprint to 100 km / h in just 3.1 seconds. The maximum speed of the vehicle is 318 km / h.

Broader set of all 911 cars

The two new models show superior visual performance, more than ever. The width features large rear panels of the new generation 911 Turbo is 28 mm wider than the 911 Carrera 4 - have a substantially planar surface, the width of a hand, between the C-pillar and the outer edge of the vehicle body.

Other distinguishing features include two-tone 20-inch forged wheels - the 911 Turbo S have hub locks wheel. The Turbo S also make their appearance with new full-LED headlights are four daytime running lights and traffic control based on dynamic cameras, which can be ordered as an option for the 911 Turbo.

Sustainable improvement rear axle steering

The introduction of the direction of the rear axle improves all turbo models greatly both on the track and the daily performance of the two new best sports cars. The system consists of two electromechanical actuators in place of conventional control arm at the left and right rear. The steering angle of the rear wheels can be varied by up to 2.8 degrees, depending on the vehicle speed. At speeds up to 50 km / h when the front wheels are turned the system directs the rear wheels in the opposite direction. In fact, this is a shortening of virtual wheelbase 250 mm, which gives unmatched performance 911 Turbo turns. The system allows the car to run faster in the corner and offers a response to the dynamic leadership. This greatly simplifies the operation and parking.

At over 80 km / h, the system operates in parallel to the rear wheels to the front wheels turned. This equates to almost longer wheelbase 500 mm high and gives the car a huge sports stability, especially at high speeds. At the same time, the steering input by the driver led to a much more rapid accumulation of lateral force on the rear axle, which began more spontaneous and harmonious redirection.

Active aerodynamics to improve the efficiency and performance

Porsche has developed an active aerodynamic system in the new 911 Turbo models, for the first time - active aerodynamics Porsche (AAP). It consists of a solid front three steps retractable spoiler, which can be renewed air segments, and deploying rear spoiler wing with three adjustable positions. This allows you to adjust the aerodynamics of the 911 Turbo to meet the wishes of the driver, whether for optimum efficiency (speed control) and the maximum driving dynamics. In the operating position, all segments are fully extended front spoiler and generate significant downforce on the front axle.

 Similarly, the rear spoiler is extended to its full height with the angle of attack. It also generates more downforce on the rear axle. The dynamic performance is improved to such an extent that the lap times on the Nürburgring Nordschleife are improved by more than two seconds due to this single system.

New interior with premium features

The interior has been completely redesigned in both 911 Turbo models, and is based on the family of the 911 Carrera. The Model S is especially well equipped, offering features like an exclusive interior with red combination of black / color and career as adaptive sports seats with 18-way adjustment and memory. In addition, the seat shells are coated head seams double leather several elements in carbon look.

As in previous models, the Bose sound system is standard for the first time, a Burmester system is also available as an option. A control system radar-controlled speed, recognition of traffic signs based camera and speed limit recognition are other new options.

The new high-end models of the 911 series models arrive on the market at the end of September 2013. In Germany, € 162 055 911 Turbo costs, costs of € 195 256 911 Turbo, VAT and country-specific features included.
