Efficiency, power and sportiness. Since the very beginning, easily the most important virtues of the 911 Carrera. They are the basis of the traditional sportscar. Again, we’ve been working on it. Again, with success.
In terms of efficiency, its engine now has direct fuel injection (DFI).
The power is provided by a 3.6-liter 6-cylinder boxer engine, positioned low down in the rear of the chassis. As usual.
With this power unit, the 911 Carrera is now able to deliver 345 hp at 6,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 288 lb-ft at 4,400 rpm. Top track speed = 180 mph.
2010 PORSCHE 911 CARRERA S & CARRERA S CABRIOLET
As far as the 911 Carrera S is concerned, the driver can take this quite literally. This is where performance is paramount. The car’s performance values are a testament to its inner strength: a 3.8-liter engine with direct fuel injection (DFI). Power output: 385 hp at 6,500 rpm. Maximum torque: 4,400 rpm.
Values that are impressive in themselves: 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds. Top speed isn’t reached until 187 mph. Also available as an option is the Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK), which improves acceleration values further still: 0 to 60 mph in 4.3 seconds.
And if you combine the PDK with the optional Sport Chrono Package Plus, the sprint from 0 to 60 mph takes just 4.3 seconds.
Additionally, the sound produced by the two stainless steel twin tailpipes is characteristic. Characteristically Porsche.
2010 PORSCHE 911 CARRERA 4 & CARRERA 4 CABRIOLET
Outstanding driving dynamics and traction are what the allwheel drive variants of the 911 have to offer above all else. And they’re instantly recognisable. By their wider body – an extra 44 mm at the rear wings and by the wider rear track – 32 mm more in Carrera 4S models – and the wider rear tyres. Also, by their titanium-coloured front air intake grilles and slats, and new seamless taillight strip. Painted in black for contrast, the trims on the lower rear panel and the side skirts provide improved protection against stone impact.
2010 PORSCHE 911 CARRERA 4S & CARRERA 4S CABRIOLET
Outstanding driving dynamics and traction are what the allwheel drive variants of the 911 have to offer above all else. And they’re instantly recognisable. By their wider body – an extra 44 mm at the rear wings. By the wider rear track – 32 mm more in Carrera 4S models – and the wider rear tyres. Also, by their titanium-coloured front air intake grilles and slats, and new seamless taillight strip. Painted in black for contrast, the trims on the lower rear panel and the side skirts provide improved protection against stone impact.
In terms of measurable values:
The performance of the 911 Carrera 4 with the 3.6-litre engine is 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 5.0 seconds with a top speed of 284 km/h (177 mph).
The 911 Carrera 4S completes the 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) sprint in just 4.7 seconds and reaches a maximum speed of 297 km/h (185 mph).
2010 PORSCHE 911 TARGA 4 & TARGA 4S
Coupé or Cabriolet? We answered this question back in 1965: both. The result: the 911 Targa. Since then we've refined it continuously. And it’s become more comfortable and more dynamic.
For example, take the drive: the 3.6-litre engine of the 911Targa 4 delivers 254 kW (345 hp) at 6,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 390 Nm at 4,400 rpm. The engine of the 911 Targa 4S, with 3.8 litres, delivers 283 kW (385 hp) at 6,500 rpm. The maximum torque of 420 Nm is available even at 4,400 rpm.
More traction and more fun – in any weather – from the Porsche Traction Management four-wheel drive system fitted as standard. Like the 911 Carrera 4 models, the body is 44 mm wider at the back. For an even more sporting appearance and better driving dynamics. The wider rear track and wider tyres allow even better transverse acceleration in corners.
The electrically operated glass roof is fully integrated into the body and gives a sensation of infinite width – open or closed. Despite the large glass areas, body rigidity is extremely high. Increased loading comfort thanks to the opening glass rear screen.
2010 PORSCHE 911 TURBO & TURBO CABRIOLET
The Highly distictive exterior is dynamic without being extravagent. Sporty, yet understated. Focusing on essentials, it remains unmistakably 911.
True to the original performance concept from 1974: the rear-mounted, turbocharged engine 911. The engine is enhanced with modern-day technologies such as: DFI, VarioCamPlus, VTG.
2010 PORSCHE 911 GT2
Power. Torque. Acceleration. All in plentiful supply. Nothing else can match that energy – except the car’s design. A single glance is all it takes to realize that fact.
2010 PORSCHE 911 GT3
You might be able to build a sports car with experience alone. But never a Porsche – and especially not a 911 GT3. That takes much more: engineers who are dedicated to the development of race cars right from the start. Whose passion is for motorsport, above all else. Engineers who firmly oppose any form of compromise. Developed from the heart. The new 911 GT3.
At the heart of the new 911 GT3 is a new engine. A development from motorsport, of course. An engine with more power than its predecessor, but with a similar level of fuel consumption.
2010 PORSCHE 911 GT3 RS
The requirements were unambiguous: no gimmicks. It is not the eye that will make the decision, but the numbers on the stopwatch. Although some may disagree. Based on the 911 GT3, it had the best starting point. The task set for our engineers was clearly defined: more power, higher performance and faster lap times.
