► 2016 Porsche 911 Turbo S with Boost Function

The new MY16 Porsche 911 Turbo and 911 Turbo S (type 991 II) now boast 20 horsepower (15 kW) more power, a sharpened design and improved features. The models will be available in both coupe and convertible versions from the start. The bi-turbo 6-cylinder engine in the 911 Turbo with 3.8 litres of displacement now has a power output of 540 hp (397 kW). The 911 Turbo S now develops 580 hp (427 kW) thanks to new turbochargers with larger compressors. Porsche is still the only manufacturer to utilise turbochargers with variable turbine geometry in petrol engines.
The engines now also have what is known as a dynamic boost function to further improve engine response in dynamic operation. It maintains the charge pressure during load changes – i.e. when the accelerator pedal is released briefly. This is achieved by just interrupting fuel injection, whereas the throttle valve remains open. As a result, the engine reacts with practically no delay to another press of the accelerator pedal. The effects of this function are more pronounced in the Sport and Sport Plus modes than in Normal mode.
The 911 Turbo S Coupé sprints to 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds. Its top speed of 330 km/h is twelve km/h higher than before. The 911 Turbo reaches the 100-km/h mark in 3.0 seconds, and its top speed is 320 km/h – five km/h faster than the previous model.
A standard feature: Sport Chrono Package with mode switch and Sport Re-sponse button.
The new GT sport steering wheel – 360 mm in diameter and with a design adopted from the 918 Spyder – comes with what is known as a mode switch as standard. It consists of a rotary ring with stepped positions that is used to select one of the four modes Normal, Sport, Sport Plus or Individual.
