Description
The Porsche 911 is an iconic sports car model that originated in the 1960s and has a long history of evolutions and innovations. The 997 generation of the Porsche 911 was produced between 2004 and 2012. The “997.2” refers specifically to the facelift introduced in 2008. Below is a piece of history and information about the 997.2-series Porsche 911 Carrera 4S. Introduced as a facelift of the original 997, the 997.2 brought several technological and mechanical improvements. Major changes from the 997.1 included new engines, an improved suspension, more modern lighting (including LED daytime running lights), and the introduction of the Porsche Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (PDK), a dual-clutch transmission that allowed faster and smoother gear changes. Carrera 4S Specifics
The Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (997.2) is the all-wheel-drive version of the Carrera S. Here is an overview of its key features:
* Engine: The 997.2 Carrera 4S has a 3.8-liter six-cylinder boxer engine that produces 385 hp. This is an improvement over the previous generation’s 355 hp. The engine has direct fuel injection (DFI), which improves fuel economy and performance. * Performance: The Carrera 4S accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in about 4.5 seconds (depending on the transmission chosen) and has a top speed of about 297 km/h. This model features a fantastic PDK automatic transmission. * All-wheel drive: The “4” in Carrera 4S refers to the car’s all-wheel drive system. This system distributes power between the front and rear wheels, providing more traction, especially in wet or slippery road conditions. This makes the 4S a more stable and versatile sports car than the rear-wheel-drive versions. * Suspension and suspension: The 4S came standard with Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), which allows the suspension’s damping to be adjusted depending on driving conditions. This provides a comfortable ride in “Normal” mode and a more performance-oriented experience in “Sport” mode. * Design: The Carrera 4S has the wider body of the Turbo models, with a wider rear track and the distinctive red reflector strip connecting the taillights. This gives the car a powerful, muscular appearance, which is a point of differentiation from the “regular” Carrera models. The Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (997.2) is a beloved version of the 911 series because of its combination of sportiness, performance and practicality, with all-wheel drive and modern technology. The model offers the characteristic driving experience of the 911 with added stability and traction, and is still considered one of the best all-round sports cars Porsche has produced.
