Porsche 911 Targa
Porsche has updated its 911 range at 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show, the first time the cars
have been shown on local soil. There will be numerous other updated 911 variants revealed over the
coming year. Here is the update of Targa 4 .
The current Targa 4 was
all-new for the 2014 model year. The arrival of this updated version coincides
with Porsche’s mid-cycle update for the entire 911 range. The biggest change is
the introduction of a new twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter flat-six engine for the
tamer 911 variants. Previously, these cars were naturally aspirated.
The Targa 4 comes with
370 hp and 331 lb-ft torque while the sportier Targa 4S gets 420
hp and 368 lb-ft. When equipped with the available seven-speed PDK dual-clutch
transmission and Sport Chrono package, the Targa 4S will accelerate 0-62 mph
from rest in just 4.0 seconds.
The car will arrive in
showrooms next spring, as a 2017 model.
