Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) is a key performance feature that enhances the driving dynamics of the 911 Targa 4 GTS by adapting the suspension in real time to changing road conditions and driving style. This electronically controlled damping system continuously adjusts each wheel’s damping force, providing the ideal balance between sporty responsiveness and everyday comfort.

When paired with the Sport or Sport Plus driving modes, PASM sharpens the car’s handling characteristics for a more engaging and confident drive. For those who want a high-performance sports car that’s just as comfortable on long drives as it is on twisty backroads, PASM is a standout feature that delivers. It’s this intelligent adaptability that helps set the 911 Targa 4 GTS apart as a truly versatile luxury performance vehicle.

What is T-Hybrid technology?

T-Hybrid technology in the new Porsche 911 Targa 4 GTS marks a significant step forward in performance-oriented electrification. This innovative system combines a newly developed, more powerful turbocharged flat-six engine with a compact electric motor integrated into the eight-speed PDK transmission. The electric motor adds immediate torque at lower revs, enhancing throttle response and reducing turbo lag. A lightweight lithium-ion battery stores energy recovered during braking, improving efficiency without compromising the 911’s legendary performance. The result is sharper acceleration, greater responsiveness, and a more dynamic driving experience—true to the spirit of the GTS badge.

What is the history of the 911 Targa 4 GTS?

The Porsche 911 Targa 4 GTS has its roots in the rich legacy of the Targa concept, which first debuted in 1965 as a response to evolving U.S. safety regulations. Combining the open-air freedom of a convertible with the structural rigidity of a coupe, the Targa quickly became an icon. The GTS badge, introduced later, signified a heightened level of performance, style, and exclusivity within the 911 lineup. When Porsche combined the Targa’s signature wraparound glass rear window and removable roof panel with the GTS’s more powerful engine and track-inspired enhancements, the 911 Targa 4 GTS emerged as a uniquely thrilling and luxurious expression of the 911 lineage.
