An electrifying subject for our engineers:
the future.

Porsche and e-mobility.

We build sports cars. Always have done.

The impulse to move forward, to be faster,

to come first is therefore established deep

in our genes – not only when it comes to

crossing the finishing line, but also, and

especially, with new ideas. So it is normal

for us to go in new directions.

One new direction is hybrid technology.

At Porsche, this chapter commenced in

2010 by the Cayenne S Hybrid.* Designed

as a parallel full hybrid, it consistently

combines typical Porsche performance

with our continuous improvement in

engine efficiency.

* Fuel consumption (in l/100 km) urban 8.7 · extra urban 7.9 · combined 8.2; CO2 emissions 193 g/km; efficiency class DE/CH B/E

** Fuel consumption (in l/100 km) combined 3.1; CO2 emissions 71 g/km; electricity consumption 16.2 kWh/100 km; efficiency class DE/CH A+/A

Our engineers were more than encou-

raged by this, and went a stage further

in thinking about the hybrid. At the same

time as the Cayenne S Hybrid, the

918 Spyd er

overwhelming

motor show. A plug-in high-performance

hybrid with amazing lap times on the

Nordschleife and impressively low

consumption values. The 918 Spyder

will go into series production in 2013.

This consistent future-oriented direction is

further supported by the Panamera S

E-Hybrid** – a plug-in hybrid in the sports

concept car also became the

star at the 2010 Geneva

saloon sector which can be charged from

an electrical socket that now consolidates

all of our know- how, is continuing

Porsche’s E-Mobility journey. This means

the combination of forward-looking drive

concepts and clever charging systems

and in-car functions that can be controlled

from a smartphone. It offers greater

efficiency and suitability for everyday use

by the driver. But with acceleration and

performance that are anything but

everyday.

New ideas will bring us to our destination –

and then take us further. With e-mobility

we are on a journey. Direction: Future.

Why do we build sports cars?
To get there more quickly.

The route to e-mobility.

Everybody is talking about e- mobility.

Finally people are asking for answers

to one of the greatest challenges of

our time: is there a replacement for our

scarce petroleum resources? How

can CO2 emissions be reduced? Can

we lower the demand for energy?

The answers lie in sustainable mobility.

E-mobility therefore replaces oil with

renewable electricity. Thereby reducing

fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and

overall energy consumption.

In specific figures, this means that, to

cover the same distance, a car running on

electricity requires only about one quarter

of the energy of a combustion engine.

So far, so visionary. The electric motor –

we call it an e-drive – is already making

full use of this potential: with immediately

available torque for spontaneous response

and high performance with the utmost

level of efficiency. Now we have to focus

on the strength of the battery, because

cars that run purely on batteries are

still far from achieving the range needed

for longer distances.

Only the combination of combustion

engine and e-drive with external charging

can ensure suitability for everyday use.

With plug-in hybrid technology we are

already enjoying the advantages of

e-mobility today. With the performance

that you rightly expect of a Porsche.

A short interim assessment shows that,

with our E-Hybrid cars, we are currently

at the very edge of what is technically

feasible. But we are not resting on our

laurels. We are continuing to work on the

future of mobility and on the future of the

sports car. Because we firmly believe

that common sense can be fun and can

also make sense. Especially in a Porsche.

Environment versus performance.

Both win.

The concept. The components.

Porsche e-mobility

Porsche e-mobility is providing the

answers. Not some time in the future,

but right now. Because global fuel

consumption and CO2 emissions must

be reduced. We believe that, as a

sports car manufacturer, we should

start where we can actually change

something: in the garage, in the

everyday life of our drivers – with an

intelligent concept.

Let’s take an example: e-mobility increas-

ingly replaces filling up at the petrol

station with charging with electricity. Not

just anywhere, but especially at home.

This requires a reliable charging infra-

structure where you can conveniently fill

up with electricity. For us, it goes without

saying that we should provide you with the

charging equipment at the same time.

With Porsche Design of course.

Another example: not all electricity is the

same. It has the greatest environmental

benefits when it is generated from renew-

able sources. So, in a few countries, we

have negotiated special tariffs for you to

use renewable power. More proof of this

is that, according to our definition,

e-mobility does not end at the vehicle

charge port on your Porsche.

In our opinion, possibly the most impor-

tant factor on the subject of e-mobility is

the driver. This is why connectivity plays a

crucial role. With our ‘e-mobility services’

as part of Porsche Car Connect you can

control specific functions via your smart-

phone, such as displaying the current

state of charge or, as an option, the

current temperature inside the car.

The icons opposite symbolise the compo-

nent parts of Porsche e-mobility. On the

following pages of this brochure we

explain in more detail what they stand for

and what possibilities Porsche e-mobility

can offer you. Together they embody a

concept that will point to new directions

in everyday driving and in sports car

philosophy.

Car.

The heart of Porsche e-mobility is the car,

or rather: the E-Hybrid. The foundation

for this was laid by hybrid technology with

two types of intelligent drive. Because

a drive concept that combines high

performance with utmost efficiency

could only be achieved by the seamless

interaction of the combustion engine

and the electric motor.

A single letter – the E – is now having a

great ef fect: it combines a future- oriented

drive with the comprehensive concept of

e-mobility. The new lithium-ion bat tery can

be charged on an external mains through

the vehicle charge port.

Thanks to its considerably greater energy

content, the electric range is significantly

longer. The powerful, high-torque

electric drive ensures adequate electric

perform ance. A new t ype of purely

electric driving experience is possible,

especially city driving, without any

fuel consumption or local emissions.

The electric motor and combustion

engine are still mechanically connected

directly to the axles, so that the typical

Porsche power can be called upon at

any time: via the combustion engine or,

for especially sporty driving, both

drives together – the so-called boost.

A Porsche E-Hybrid has five main types of

driving. They are controlled automatically

and according to requirements. The

future-oriented drive concept can then

make full use of the potential – and you

can concentrate on what’s important:

enjoying the drive.

Combustion engine driving

The car is driven by the combustion engine

Depending on its state of charge and load requirements, the battery can also be charged

For long journeys and high speeds

Boost

The car is driven by the electric motor and the combustion engine

‘Kicking down’ on the accelerator pedal calls up the car’s maximum power (boost)

For greater performance, e.g. for overtaking manoeuvres and dynamic response

Coasting

The combustion engine is automatically switched of f and disengaged when you take

your foot off the accelerator pedal while driving

Some energy is recovered to support the car’s electrical system

For emission-free cruising and without consuming any fuel

Recovery (of braking energy)

When you brake, the electric motor works like a generator to produce electricity

The combustion engine remains switched off

Recovering braking energy that would otherwise be lost – it can be used again later for electric driving
