Sport Mode
A sportier car set-up is obtained when Sport mode
is switched on. Interventions by the Porsche
control systems are intentionally shifted towards
greater agility and driving performance.
– PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Manage-
ment) is automatically changed to Sport mode,
resulting in a stiffer suspension setup.
– The Tiptronic S switches to a sporty gear-
changing map and shortens the gear shifting
periods. Gear changes take place faster.
– PSM (Porsche Stability Management) control is
sporty. PSM interventions are later than in
Normal mode; the vehicle can be maneuvered
with greater agility at its performance limits,
without the need to dispense with the assist-
ance of PSM in emergency situations. This
helps to achieve optimal lap times, particularly
on race circuits with a dry road surface.
– The electronic accelerator pedal reacts
sooner, and the engine is more responsive to
throttle inputs. When Sport mode is switched
on, this function is activated only after the
driver has floored the accelerator pedal or
released it briefly.
– The rpm limiter characteristic is “harder”, i.e.
the engine is immediately throttled when the
performance limits are reached.
f Please observe the appropriate chapters of
this Manual.

emitting diode in the SPORT button is lit.

button, PASM remains active.

mal mode.
