Sport Chrono Package
The Sport Chrono Package enables an even sportier tuning of the chassis, engine and transmission – and launches you to unprecedented sporty heights.
The key component is the mode switch on the steering wheel, derived from the 918 Spyder. Without your hand having to leave the steering wheel, you can choose any of four settings: Normal, SPORT, SPORT PLUS and Individual. In this way, you can adapt the vehicle even more to the way you want to drive.
In combination with PDK, you benefit from three additional functions. The first is Launch Control, which can be used to achieve the best possible standing start.
The second function is the motorsport derived gearshift strategy. In this mode, PDK is geared up for extremely short shift times and optimum shift points for the maximum acceleration available.
The third function is SPORT Response. Pressing the button in the center of the mode switch primes the engine and transmission for the fastest possible unleashing of power. In other words, maximum responsiveness – for a period of 20 seconds. A timer graphic in the instrument cluster tells you how long is left.
Dynamic engine mounts are also part of the Sport Chrono Package. The electronically controlled system minimizes the perceptible oscillations and vibrations of the entire drivetrain, particularly the engine, and combines the benefits of a hard or soft engine mounting arrangement. In short, it enhances both driving stability and driving comfort.
The Sport Chrono Package now also includes the Porsche Track Precision App. This enables you to clock lap times and collate driving stats, record and manage the results on your smartphone and share them with other drivers for comparison. The app makes use of GPS and high-precision data from the on-board computer and helps you to better your driving performance. Graphical and video analyses display every millisecond of your potential for improvement. Lap after lap.
