The Taycan may even have been the center of attention at the Porsche space at the Frankfurt Motor Show, however, in the same space where it unveiled its first electric model, the Stuttgart brand had more innovations, as is evidenced by the 911 Carrera 4 Coupé and Cabriolet powered by the “eternal” six boxer cylinders.
After a few months of having known the more affordable versions of the new 911 (992) (the Carrera Coupé and Cabriolet), the range is extended to the Carrera 4 Coupé and Cabriolet equipped with all-wheel drive.
Like the 911 Carrera Coupé and Cabriolet, this version uses the 3.0 l biturbo capable of debiting 385 hp at 6500 rpm and 450 Nm available between 1950 rpm and 5000 rpm. Associated with this engine is, as in the rear-wheel drive version, the PDK eight-speed automatic transmission.
The performances of the 911 Carrera 4
In terms of performance, the 911 Carrera 4 Coupé accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.2s (4.0s with the optional Sport Chrono Package). The 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet achieved 0 to 100 km/h in 4.4sec (4.2s with the Sport Chrono Package). The top speed is 291 km/h for the 911 Carrera 4 and 289 km/h for the 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet.

Equipped with the Porsche Traction Management (PTM) system, similarly to the Carrera 4S, which promotes increased traction on snow, wet or even dry roads, the 911 Carrera 4 also feature the PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management) system as standard. which offers two selectable modes: “Normal” and “Sport”.
Porsche Wet Mode is also standard. As an option, there is an electronically controlled self-locking rear differential with Porsche Torque Vectoring, and even in terms of ground connections, the 911 Carrera 4 has 19” front and 20” wheels.
Aesthetically (almost) all the same
Aesthetically similar to the other 911 (992), the only difference between the 911 Carrera 4 and the 911 Carrera 4S is the fact that in this case an exhaust outlet instead of the double outlets is only present on each side of the bumper. As an option, as in the Carrera 4S, the “Sports Exhaust System” with two oval outlets is available.
