7-speed manual added to new Porsche 911 Carrera S, Carrera 4

Posted: Posted:

In addition to 8-speed AT, 7-speed MT can be ordered

On April 28, 2020, Porsche issued a press release stating that all Porsche 911 (992) Carrera S and Carrera 4S models can now be ordered with 7-speed manual specifications.

Here, as of November 2019, I was able to confirm in North America that "a manual will be released for Carrera S and Carrera 4S", so I wrote it on the blog, but this time, Porsche officially talked about Europe. It is in the form that there was an announcement ^ ^

According to the announcement at this stage (as of April 28, 2020), there is no additional cost to change to this 7-speed MT in Europe and its related markets (= related markets).

In other words, in the future, Porsche 911 Carrera S and Carrera 4S will be able to select "8-speed PKD car (AT car)" or "7-speed MT car" free of charge.

It's good! If both can be selected at no cost, it will be great for both those who want PDK and those who want MT ^ ^

Even in Japan, I wonder if it's OK either way! how did it become I wonder. No?

* At this time, there is no announcement about MT car sales in Japan.

Manual car is free and comes with a sports chrono package

And if you choose the 7-speed MT announced this time, the sports chrono package will be automatically included for free.

Really ~? I thought (I doubt why (laughs)) and checked it with a Porsche configurator in Germany.

At this stage, neither the US nor the UK have reflected this MT specification, so I do not know the language at all, but it is a crying German site visit ^ ^

Then.

Oh! Is true. First, make sure that you have two choices at the drive train. One is MT and one is PDK. Both are priced at 0 euros.

… But I can't read German anymore, so with the help of Google Translate, I converted it to Japanese using Google Translate.

Google teacher ~!

And here is the Japanese translation ↓

Well, it was true (how much I doubt). Even though it comes with a sports chrono package, the price remains zero yen.

Click the details of the person who selects the manual ...

No, that's why I can't read it. Google teacher ~.

So here ↓

The image is a little too small (sorry) and it's hard to see, but the 7-speed MT says "including the sports chrono package", and the 0 yen notation at the end.

So that's it.

Yeah, I'm convinced that Sports Chrono will come with you for free if you use MT.

Then, maybe even the PDK became something like "Sports Chrono Package, if you like, I'll put it on for free if you want"? I thought, I took a look at this as well, but unfortunately when I chose PDK, the sports chrono was not attached as standard, and there was a separate option.

Well, that's right ^^ ↓

Well, that's why I can't read it, so I don't need this crap anymore (laughs).

The following is translated ↓

If you choose PDK, it costs € 2,380 with the Sport Chrono option.

That's it, if you use MT, this sports chrono is now free! 2,380 euros for free with the purchase of MT!

… It's becoming like a mail order (laughs).

I'm sorry, it's not "now". It's not like "30 minutes from now" ^^

From now on, it seems that those who have chosen MT cars will come with Sports Chrono for free (it is persistent, but at the moment it is a story in Europe @ as of April 28, 2020).

Well, in reality, the PDK should be more expensive, so I will put the price of the PDK and MT together, but the difference will be automatically added to the sports chrono. I wonder if it feels like (thinking only about the price).

Sports Chrono New Features

By the way, this sports chrono will be provided with a tire pressure gauge as well as a tire temperature indicator, which is a new function from the 911 Turbo S (992).

This is a blue light that tells you that the road grip is low (low warning) when the tire temperature is still low, and when the tire warms up, the light turns blue to white, Eventually it will turn into a white light and tell you "Grip, OK! (You can get the maximum grip)".

By the way, this function is hidden when using winter tires.

In addition, this sports chrono also has an automatic rev match function.

Various other new options added

Porsche InnoDrive and front smart lift option

In addition, the Porsche InnoDrive (PID) function, which was previously provided to Panamera and Cayenne but has not yet been added to sports car models, will also be provided to the Porsche 911 Carrera series. That's right.

Porsche InnoDrive (PID) is a so-called new dimension electronic assistant system that accurately calculates acceleration and deceleration up to 3 km in advance and shows the optimum driving plan in real time. That is, the extended assist function of adaptive cruise control.

For more information here:(Porsche official website) Explanation about PID

InnoDrive allows Porsche to adjust the optimum speed and so on, so if you do not have a PDK, you will not be automatically assisted ... Therefore, if you select this option, you will have to select the PDK.

In addition, it seems that a "smart lift" function has been added to the 911 Carrera series, so it will be possible to select it in the future.

It seems that this smart lift is a function that automatically lifts the front where it seems better to raise the front on the road where you usually drive.

It seems that the ground clearance of the front apron part will rise by about 4 cm, and the registration of the point "automatically raise the front" is completed by pressing the button at the place you want to register (GPS coordinates are registered).

From then on, when approaching the registration point, the smart Carrera will automatically raise the front by about 4 cm, saying "I'll raise the front".

In my case, I always lift the front of the GT3 with a lifter at the slight step at the entrance to the parking lot at home.

Nowadays, when my home parking lot is approaching, I unknowingly go to the lifter switch, but even so, there are times when I'm afraid, so it's better to go up without permission. Maybe not ^^?

Porsche 911 Turbo: 930 model style leather package 930

The interior of the new Porsche 911 Turbo S is designed like the style of the 930 turbo model by harmonizing the colors and materials like the 930 type of Porsche 911 Turbo, but that is called "leather package 930". I didn't know to call ...! !!

Was it so…. Leather package 930.

* Some media called it 930 Leather Package, but this time it was Leather Package 930 in Porsche's press, so is this correct?

e? Which one is fine? No, that's right. important subjects.

Yes, so this leather package 930 can now be applied to the Porsche 911 Carrera series as an option in the future.

Glazing option added to Porsche 911 Coupe

For the Porsche 911 coupe, glazing, which is a lighter and sound-insulating window glass (Is it written as a material?), Can be selected.

By adopting this glazing, the weight can be reduced by more than 4 kg compared to ordinary window glass, and rolling noise and wind noise are also reduced considerably.

Applies to windshields, rear windows, and all door windows.

After that ... 7 colors can be selected for the ambient light design package ... Furthermore, the special color Python Green has been added to the body color.

The announcement of this 7-speed MT was for Carrera S and Carrera 4S, but I wonder if you can sell a manual and left handle specification with 992 base model Carrera in Japan as well ~ ^ ^

If you give it out, I'll buy it right away! !! (Well, I'm sure it won't come out, so I'll say it bullishly at the end (laughs)).
