dia meters are 15.35 in (390 mm) and
13.78 in (350 mm) at the front and rear
respectively. The discs are internally
vented and slotted for improved heat
dispersal and braking even under
extreme conditions.
The electric parking brake, which
can be activated manually, releases
automatically as you pull away.
Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake
(PCCB).
The track-tested Porsche Ceramic
Composite Brake (PCCB) is available
on request (only in conjunction with
20-inch wheels). The diameters of the
cross-drilled ceramic discs are
16.14 in (410 mm) and 13.78 in (350 mm)
at the front and rear respectively.
PCCB is characterised by its low thermal
expansion, which prevents deformation
under heavy braking. Furthermore, the
ceramic brake discs are totally resistant to
corrosion and offer more favourable noise-
damping properties.
The key advantage of PCCB is the
extremely low weight of the ceramic
brake discs, which are approximately
50 % lighter than standard discs of similar
design and size. As well as enhancing
performance and fuel economy, this
represents a major reduction in unsprung
and rotating masses. The results are
improved handling, better road holding
and increased comfort, particularly on
uneven roads.
Brakes.
The brake system of the Panamera GTS,
which features six-piston monobloc
aluminum fixed brake calipers at the
front and four-piston units at the
rear, has been carried over from the
Panamera Turbo. The brake disc
Environment.
As far as engine output is concerned, we
are already among those manufacturers
achieving the lowest CO
2
emissions.
This has been achieved through efficient
drive concepts, lightweight construction,
optimum aerodynamics and low rolling
resistance. In this way, Porsche demon-
strates that even high performance
sports car can achieve moderate fuel
consumption and exhaust emission
values in their respective category.
How? Through the use of fuel-efficient
technologies such as direct fuel injection
(DFI), VarioCam Plus, Auto Start Stop
and electrical system recuperation,
