Included as standard equipment, Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) is an electronic active damping system. It offers continuous adjustment of the damping force on each wheel, based on the current driving situation and your driving style. In addition, the body is 10 mm lower than that of the 911 Carrera models. For the 911 Carrera GTS Coupé models, it is possible to have the body lowered by 20 mm. This option includes the mechanically locking rear differential, which is already fitted as standard in the all-wheel drive models.

At the press of a button, the driver can select between two different modes: ‘Normal’, which is a blend of performance and comfort, and ‘Sport’, where the setup is much firmer. The balance between comfortable and uncompromisingly sporty is struck more effectively than with a conventional chassis. The PASM control unit evaluates the driving conditions and modifies the damping force on each of the wheels optimally in accordance with the selected mode.

Sensors monitor the movement of the vehicle body, for example, under heavy acceleration and braking or on uneven roads. The control unit tunes the dampers to the optimum hardness for the selected mode to reduce roll and pitch and to increase contact between each individual wheel and the road.
