2012 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S

What is it that sets the professionals apart? Performance that you can rely on and that is consistent regardless of mood and weather. True professionals rise to any occasion and give their best even when the odds are stacked against them. The Porsche 911 Carrera 4S and the Porsche 911 Carrera 4 are two professionals that perform on the road with pinpoint accuracy. The 911 Carrera 4 achieves this with a 3.6-litre horizontally opposed cylinder engine that delivers a power output of 254 kW (345 hp), while the S model is equipped with a 3.8-litre unit that generates 283 kW (385 hp). The 911 Carrera 4 completes the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.0 seconds, the 911 Carrera 4S in 4.7 seconds.

This power is transmitted to the road by Porsche Traction Management (PTM), an all-wheel-drive system that seizes the initiative and takes full control of the situation. In conjunction with Porsche Stability Management (PSM), it creates the ideal platform for excellent driving stability and safety as well as outstanding driving dynamics and agility. Professionals are also distinguished by their commanding presence. The 911 all-wheel-drive models are typified by their particularly imposing body and stance with a wide rear track and broad rear tyres. Another characteristic attribute is the seamless taillight strip and, at the front, the air intake grilles and slats with a titanium-coloured paint finish. Don’t be fooled by their sunny disposition. The 911 all-wheel-drive models are not fairweather sports enthusiasts in any shape or form. They are dedicated, professional performers through and through.

A sports car ought to be fast. That’s the conventional thinking. It is our belief that a sports car must, first and foremost, be fast to react. Only then can it find the right and immediate answer to the current road condition and your individual driving style. A direct response is required on each straight and in every twist and turn. In other words, a sports car must have the optimum reaction to each and every action. For whenever one thinks about speed, one must also consider the effects of traction and never disregard the importance of safety. The 911 all-wheel-drive models put these theories into practice without hestitation. Intelligent all-wheel drive technologies offer high levels of safety without compromising the car’s ability to deliver extraordinary performance. The body is imposing and wide for excellent road holding and driving stability, attributes epitomised by all 911 all-wheeldrive models. The common principle that binds them is what we call Intelligent Performance.
