The 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo S is the new top-of-the-range Porsche
sports car. According to Porsche, the 911 Turbo S was designed
'for the customer who will only settle for the very best in
terms of power, performance and driving dynamics'.
Powering the 2011 911 Turbo S is a 3.8 litre six-cylinder boxer
engine boosted by two exhaust gas turbochargers with variable
turbine geometry. This unit offers an additional 30hp over the
standard 911 Turbo - taking the overall power output to 530
horsepower and 700 Nm (516 lb-ft) of torque. At the same time
the 'S' comes as standard with all the high-tech components
and features available only as options on the "regular"
911 Turbo.
Despite its significant increase in power and dynamic performance,
the new 911 Turbo S, at 11.4 litres/100 kilometres (equal to
24.8 mpg imp), does not consume any more fuel than the Porsche
911 Turbo.
The 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo S comes exclusively with seven-speed
Porsche-Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (PDK) (Porsche's Double-Clutch
Gearbox) conveying drive power to Porsche Traction Management
(PTM) all-wheel drive. Driving safety optimised to an even higher
standard is ensured by Dynamic Engine Mounts and Porsche Torque
Vectoring (PTV) including a mechanical differential lock on
the rear axle. In conjunction with Launch Control on the Sport
Chrono Package Turbo likewise featured as standard, the 911
Turbo S accelerates from 0-62 mph in just 3.3 seconds and reaches
a 195 mph top speed.
Additional features of the 911 Turbo S include; ceramic composite
brakes, 19-inch wheels in RS Spyder design with central locking,
a three-spoke sports steering wheel with gearshift paddles,
adaptive sports seats, cruise control, a CD/DVD changer and
exclusive twin-tone leather upholstery in Black/Crema or Black/Titanium
Blue.
