Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet Review
Car Summary
Hit the road in style when you hire a Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet. This futuristic open top sports car is one of the most powerful of the iconic 911-model range and certainly one of the most desirable convertibles on the road right now.
The six-cylinder 3.8L engine produces 400 bhp and makes 0-100 in just 4.7 seconds. It hits a top speed of 296 km/h and has a combined fuel consumption of 10l/100 km, with direct fuel injection (DFI) and VarioCam Plus ensuring increased power and lower fuel consumption. The 7-speed manual transmission is designed with fuel efficiencies in mind, whilst the Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV) system and Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC) contribute to the 911 C4s’s dynamic performance.
The lightweight construction of aluminium and steel further contributes to the performance and fuel economy, with a power to weight ratio of 3.5kg/hp. The all-wheel-drive system is enhanced by Porsche Traction Management (PTM) to intelligently distribute power to the wheels in accordance with the road conditions. Handling is superb and the electromechanical power steering not only makes the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet more environmentally friendly, it also gives direct and responsive steering for incredible driver control.
The fabric hood of the 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet can open in just 13 seconds and at a speed of 49 km/h. It is lightweight yet rigid, and when raised creates an aerodynamic silhouette that reduces wind noise and drag. The car’s long wheelbase provides additional stability and excellent dynamics in cornering. The short front and rear overhangs give a compact and agile look, while the low roofline and wide track emphasise its athletic abilities. Bi-Xenon headlights and LED running lights at the front and stainless steel tailpipes at the rear are unmistakably Porsche, and 20” alloy wheels not only look great, but also improve comfort and performance.
In the cabin you’ll find a wonderful blend of quality, sportiness and functionality to ensure an incredible driving experience. The instrument cluster features a 4.6” colour screen for the adaptive cruise control, audio system and sat-nav, and a surround sound stereo system ensures excellent acoustics throughout. The Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet combines style, advanced engineering and incredible performance to be one of the finest open-top cars on the road.
Reviews“The new Porsche 911 C4S Cabriolet has subtle styling – but its performance is an entirely different matter”
The all-wheel-drive Porsche 911 C4S Cabriolet is the pinnacle of the Porsche 911 model line-up, and with brilliant performance and composure in all weather and a fabric roof that drops in 13 seconds, this is what one might call a ‘supercar for every season’. The design is subtle, but once you fire up the 3.8L flat-six engine, it takes on a life of its own, with blistering acceleration and four-wheel drive for enhanced handling. The car is surprisingly easy to drive for everyday use and long journeys, and with generous boot space and rear seats, it could be used as a GT.
“The Porsche 911 Cabriolet Carrera 4S is one of the best high-performance cabriolets in the world and certainly the easiest to live with day to day”
The performance is stunning, with 394 bhp and 0-100 km/h in 4.7 seconds. It is incredibly capable, with plenty of grip on corners and sharp, precise steering. It is agile, easy to drive and exceedingly comfortable, and the fabric roof is able to reduce noise levels in the cabin to coupe-like levels, whilst a windbreak effectively keeps the drafts out when the top is down. This is one of the most practical drop-tops, with generous storage space in the front boot, a well laid-out dashboard and adjustable steering wheel and seating.
