#Porsche sport chrono plus plus#

I like everything to be a little bit more. Sport+ is Sport mode with everything turned up just a little bit more. Personally I’m an all-or-nothing driver, and if this were my car, I’d never drive it in Sport mode, simply because Sport+ exists. This mode is fun and enjoyable, but in a slightly muted way. This mode is for when you want to get a little more lively with your driving experience, but haven’t quite made it to your favorite road. The PASM chassis tuning settings are stiffened, the throttle response is sharpened, the shift points are raised, the dynamic engine mounts change to absorb the engine’s polar motion, and the exhaust flaps open (if so equipped). This is the halfway point between Normal and hog wild. If you’re interested in driving comfortably to work and back without waking up the neighbors and getting a stiff back, this is likely the mode you’ll use on most days. Throttle response is a bit muted, shift points are taken earlier, and the auto start/stop stays active. Similarly, the Normal mode will close the valves in the exhaust (if Sport Exhaust is equipped), quieting things down a bit. All Carreras now come standard with PASM, so this mode takes advantage of that, providing you with a softer and more comfortable ride. Normal Modeĭesignated by an “O” on the dial, I can only imagine to signify “ordinär”, the German word for Ordinary or Normal, this setting is the most comfortable driving mode. Here’s how each setting on the dial will affect your driving experience and what happens when you push that little black button in the middle. If you haven’t ordered yours yet, you’ll want to make sure this option box is ticked on your order sheet. We recently drove a 911 equipped with the new Sport Chrono and can confirm it’s pretty astounding. If you’ve ordered your 991.2 with the Sport Chrono package, you can’t help but notice, in addition to the bulge on the dash that houses the chrono clock, there’s a new dial on the steering wheel.

In fact, if the 991.1 was your favorite type of ice cream, the 991.2 is your favorite ice cream with sprinkles and hot-fudge everything that made the first generation 991 great is back, PLUS a myriad of new features improve on an already excellent formula. If you’ve read our 991.2 Carrera review, you already know we think it’s awfully good. There are five distinct functions derived from this new knob and button set-up.
