Porsche has expanded the 911 Carrera line up by introducing the 2020 all-wheel-drive 911 Carrera 4 and 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet. Like the standard Carrerra, the new Carrerra 4 is powered a twin-turbo 3.0-liter flat-six developing 379 hp at 6,500 rpm coupled to a standard 8-speed PDK transmission.
The new Carrera 4 is slightly faster than the last generation with a 0-60 time of just 3.8 seconds (4.0 seconds for the Cabriolet) when equipped with the optional Sport Chrono Package. The top speed for the hardtop is 180 mph. To cope with the additional performance the new Carrera 34 models feature a water-cooled front axle clutch and differential unit and strong clutches. These improvements in combination with the Porsche Traction Management system increase traction in all conditions.
The new traction management system and axles paired with Porsche Active Suspension Management and Porsche Torque Vectoring promise that the latest Carrera 4 will be the best handling in the model’s history. Brakes on the 2020 911 Carrera 4 models are vented steel and measure 13.0 inches front and rear with black four-piston calipers. Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes are optional.
The 2020 911 Carrera 4 goes on sale in early 2020.
Starting at $106,050 for the coupe and $118,850 for the Cabriolet including destination.
