Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet Design in Lizard Green
  • 5 years ago
The new Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet offers unfiltered driving pleasure. The fresh-air version of the eighth 911 generation is now being launched just four months after the world premiere of the Coupé. The Cabriolet is a model with particular importance for the sports car manufacturer: this is because the first Porsche sports car, the 356 "No. 1" Roadster from 1948, was an open-top car. Its convertible top was made of simple canvas. Full-featured Cabriolet versions have also enhanced the 911 family since 1982 - and have been equipped with electrically operated high-tech roofs since 1987.

The new Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet is equipped with the most technically advanced roof design that Porsche has to offer. The electrohydraulic system is now even lighter and closes the fabric hood in just twelve seconds, and can even do this while driving up to speeds of 50 km/h. The integrated wind deflector also extends electrically in two seconds and calms the air movement in the interior.

The new Cabriolet offers pure pleasure even when the top is closed: the squat roofline mirrors the unmistakable silhouette of the Coupé. At the same time, special magnesium panel bows prevent the soft top from ballooning when driving at high speed and also offer optimum protection for the vehicle occupants. The heated glass rear window improves all-round visibility, while the automatic roll-over protection system increases safety. An additional layer made of heat- and noise-insulating material ensures comfort in all weather.
