New Porsche 911 (992) Review by Max Watson
It is a video released a while ago (May 11, 2019), but Mr. Mat Watson talks about the introduction of the new Porsche 911 (992) "New Porsche 911 2020 in-depth review | carwow Reviews".
It was interesting to see this video, which has been reviewed in various details that are rarely found elsewhere. The source video is at the end of this page, so please have a look ^^
However, it's a little over 18 minutes long, so here's an excerpt of what I found interesting.
The ON / OFF button for sports exhaust is now on the LCD panel
This time, when I was watching this video, the first thing I said unintentionally was "Yes," yes, "On a car with a sports exhaust, there is a button to control the exhaust ON / OFF. , Instead of the physical switch that existed until 991, it came to be turned on / off with the button on the LCD screen. "
a. Is there anyone who said "Yes!" Isn't it (laughs)?
No, I was quite surprised. this.
First of all, this screen for controlling the car is displayed on the LCD, and by pressing the exhaust button that is currently being pressed with your finger, you can switch ON / OFF ↓
When the sports exhaust is turned on, the muffler (yellow circle part) on the screen lights up like this ↓
Somehow, I'm not used to turning the exhaust on and off just by touching it on the LCD panel! (It's not my car, so you don't have to get used to it ^^).
Now, in 991.2, Spoeki ON / OFF is normally turned on / off with a switch, so I already (because it is a car with a right-hand drive), the moment I start the engine with my right hand, Spoeki ON with my left hand, etc. Even when I just move the car a few meters in the parking lot, I almost unconsciously turn on the sports exhaust every time ↓
When it comes to the LCD panel in the future, it seems that it will take some time to turn it on every time.
Or is it possible to make settings such as "When you start the engine, turn on Spoeki by default" when you control it on the LCD screen? Then maybe that's the best ...
By the way, at this point, Mr. Max once said, "I don't like it because I'm a little worried about it." I agree with that.
Because, if you make it a sports exhaust with 992, there will be two mufflers in total, one on each side like this ↓
On the LCD screen, this is the shape of a so-called standard muffler, which is a picture of two on each side, for a total of four ↓! !!
I don't like that.
Hmmm, no, I understand, that! !!
It's a really small thing like this, but I wonder if it feels like "My car's muffler is like this!" It's hard to say that the foil is different, but the shape of the tail pipe is different even though this is exactly where the spoeki is turned on and off.
No, I wonder if this is the feeling of "No, it's not" because I love my car too much ^^
What? Is the vessel too small to mess around with that? Hi, that's small ^^.
No, even so, if you take a closer look, you can now control "idling stop ON / OFF" and "manual raising and lowering of the rear spoiler" on the LCD. I was surprised.
Try to actually put the PET bottle in the 992 cup holder
And and.
At the time of the 992 unveiling the other day, I was finally able to see the actual thing, Cup holder on the passenger side. Also for this, the PET bottle was actually placed in the video.
It's like this ↓ If it's like this, it seems that a 500ml PET bottle will hold it without any problems ^ ^
992 has two USB ports
Where you can put a little thing between the driver's seat and the passenger seat, it looks like this when a smartphone (Galaxy S10 +) is inserted ↓
And there are a SIM card port, an SD card port, and two USB ports inside. Is it a feeling that you can charge while placing your smartphone here?
Set the child seat on the new Porsche 911 (992)
It is a story that is no longer relevant to my home, but for those who are about to purchase the new Porsche 911, I think that "992 can not put a child seat or something, and it is impossible because there are babies / small children ~" Good news for those who are being told.
Yes! Even with the new Porsche 911, you can easily attach a child seat ... That's right ^ ^! !!
From about 8:07 in the video, he teaches how to attach a child seat to the Porsche 992.
Set the child seat in the back seat of Porsche 992
First of all, how to set a child seat in the back seat. If you remove the pad at the bottom of the backrest of the back seat ...
Below that, there is a yellow "ISOFIX mount point", so ...
Just set it so that the child seat is inserted here.
After setting the base part, all you have to do is click on the upper basket part as the base.
This removable basket-type child seat is really convenient, isn't it? How much have you been taken care of? Nostalgic ~ ^^
Next, how to set a child seat for a toddler.
Just like before, just snap it into the ISOFIX mount. Simple!
Set the child seat in the passenger seat of Porsche 992
Similarly, it seems that this ISOFIX mount point is properly prepared in the passenger seat.
So, even if you want to set a child seat in the passenger seat, you can easily set it.
Very convenient.
No, it ’s good.
I have three children of similar age in my house, so there was a time when I was running with three child seats in my car. It was BMW, not Porsche, that was set.
Now, when I was carrying three child seats, I wanted to run with Porsche 911 with "one in the passenger seat and two in the back seat" (laughs). Waiting for people around me to say, "You don't have to force yourself to ride the 911?" ... ^^
… So, it's going to be a long time, so I'll continue next ~.
