911 Carrera S
Safety to us is not merely an obligation.
It’s part of our history.
Safety has always been given
top priority at Porsche, since the
very beginning. As far back as
1966, the 911 S was equipped
with internally vented disc brakes.
In 1972, the 911 RS 2.7 was
the first production car in the
world to ha ve b oth front and rear
spoilers for increased downforce.
In 1973, the 911 RS 3.0 was
f itted with cr oss-drilled, four-piston
aluminum brake calipers. We
were also th e first manufacturer
to eq uip our sports cars with
full-
size airbags for the driv er
a nd passenger as st andard.
Its effective aerodynamics
increase downward force to
provide excellent traction
and ensure that the car
rem ains stable on the r oad.
