With distinct styling, TECHART is presenting its tuning suite for the latest Porsche 911 Carrera 4S at the IAA International Motor Show. This customised Porsche connects excellent design, sportiness, and dynamism; the basic system of all TECHART products: OEM quality – Made in Germany. TECHART underpins this quality with its striking exterior design, enhanced aerodynamics and performance characteristics in addition to a stylish and exclusive interior.
The TÜV-certified Aerokit I is the thriving outcome of concentrated development work in the wind tunnel. The PUR-RIM parts fitted to increase the downforce on the axles and also increase the driving stability. The front spoiler underscores the dynamism of the 911 Carrera 4S and, by optimising the airflow, helps to guarantee efficient cooling of the braking system. Depending on necessities, a roof spoiler and three versions of rear wings allow precision aerodynamic tuning on the rear axle. The dynamic character is also emphasised by ornamental trims for the exterior mirrors – made from carbon fibre coated in the requested colour, decorative headlamp surrounds.
TECHART has produced two versions of a new exhaust system. The “Sport” version, for instance, features two rear mufflers with an exhaust flap and an exhaust flap control unit in addition to double-oval tailpipes in a polished or black chromium finish. The “Racing” version is also outfitted with two stainless steel high-performance headers and a sports catalyst. Drivers can choose between either a production-vehicle-like sporty sound or a powerful racing car sound. The “Racing” version also helps to boost performance significantly by 35 bhp in the upper-speed range.
Firm sporty handling is ensured by TECHART's VARIO suspension in addition to a set of TECHART sports springs. The VARIO PLUS version is available for vehicles with PASM. Both systems feature shock absorbers with an adjustable rebound and pressure stage plus special main and additional springs. TECHART Formula and Formula II alloy wheels, available as a five-spoke wheel in either a single-piece or composite design, underscore this sportiness. For the new Porsche 911 model, a light alloy forged wheel - the TECHART Formula III forged - is available in a twin-spoke design in a 19-inch and 20-inch format. By way of an option, the TECHART nose lift system is also available for negotiating curbsides and other ramps. At the touch of a button, it is possible to raise the automobile by up to 60 mm – even when driving at up to 60 km/h.
Different leather interiors, colour-coordinated three-spoke airbag sports steering wheels, aluminium pedals and trim strips are just a few of the interior options available. Thanks to TECHART craftsmanship, virtually no bounds are set when it comes to realising a customised design. The silver-coloured accentuating details are applied, for instance, to the dashboard and decorative door panels, to the trim around the infotainment system, in the centre console, seat backrests and coat hooks.
