Zusammenfassung

The new Porsche 911 Carrera is characterised by a greater aerodynamic differentiation between efficiency and performance in comparison with its predecessor.
In the new Porsche wind tunnel, the aerodynamic drag coefficient of the 911 Carrera was further reduced through optimisation of the basic shape and newly developed measures for improving the underbody flow characteristics.
Depending on driving mode and speed, the requirements for minimum driving resistance and high driving-dynamic performance can be met through the control strategy of the active aerodynamic elements at the front and rear of the vehicle.
In addition to the implementation of a further increased engine-cooling performance, the charge air cooling was also improved through an optimised air path and efficient arrangement of the coolers.
