In general, acceleration from zero to 62mph improves by 0.1 seconds; for a GTS Coupé with PDK In comparison with the Carrera S, top speed of the GTS with manual transmission rises by 2mph to 190 mph. As standard, the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS has a six-speed manual gearbox and the seven-speed Porsche Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (PDK) is available as an option. The outer shells of the exhaust pipes are painted in black and their inner tubes are polished on the outside and nano-coated. Added to this is a sports exhaust system with two dual tailpipes producing a unique sound.

Consequently, the maximum torque of 420 Nm is available at 4,200 rpm, 200 rpm earlier than with the Carrera S for increased low rev response. A special resonance intake manifold features six vacuum-controlled tuning flaps that switch between power- and torque-optimised geometry, whereas in a Carrera S power unit there is only one tuning flap. Special attention was paid to the cylinder charge in the 3.8-litre flat engine fitted to the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS in order to deliver 408 hp. Powered by a 3.8-litre direct injection flat six engine that has been tuned to produce an additional 23 hp more than the 911 Carrera S, the new GTS combines the traditional 911 virtues of exceptional sporting performance, distinctive styling and day to day versatility.

With a power output of 408 hp, outstanding vehicle dynamics and a specification that emphasises the character of the iconic sports coupe, the new Porsche 911 Carrera GTS ascends to the pinnacle of the Carrera model series.

The sporty interior ambience is further emphasised by use of Alcantara wherever driver and passenger come into direct contact with the vehicle; such as on the rim In combination with the standard black interior colour, the centre sections of the driver and passenger sport seats are covered with black Alcantara. The area between the two tailpipes on the rear apron is also finished in black. Further features include the SportDesign front apron with spoiler edge painted in black, special side skirts also in black, and the Carrera GTS logotype on doors and rear lid, in black or silver depending on the body colour.

For instance, the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS sits on 19-inch centre-locking RS Spyder alloy wheels, painted in black with high-gloss finished rims, with 235/35 ZR 19 tyres on the front axle and 305/30 ZR 19 tyres on the rear. There are many more details which underline the design and technology of the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS from other Carrera models. Unique within the 911 Carrera family, the GTS combines the 44 millimetre wider body of the all-wheel drive Carrera 4 models - including widened rear track - with a classic rear-wheel drive configuration. Fuel consumption of a Porsche 911 Carrera GTS with PDK in the NEDC is 27.7 mpg (10.2 litres/100 km) and CO2 emissions are 240 g/km.

True to the Porsche Intelligent Performance philosophy, this additional sportiness goes hand in hand with more rational appeal: the new Porsche 911 Carrera GTS consumes no more fuel than the Carrera S in the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC).
