Roof system 911 Targa 4 Models

The fully automatic roof system of the new 911 Targa 4 models is innovative – and extremely robust. With the vehicle stationary, the roof opens and closes fully automatically in around 20 seconds. And it folds away behind the rear seats elegantly and with visual perfection.

The roof materials are as pioneering as the overall concept. Two magnesium elements provide optimum tensioning of the fabric hood, while the heatable rear screen is made from laminated safety glass. Together with the soundproofed interior lining of the hood itself, this selection of materials ensures an incredibly low level of driving noise with the roof closed. An extendable wind deflector is integrated into the windscreen cowl surround.

The roll-over protection of the Targa roll bar fulfils the most stringent requirements for safety. And all the more so in terms of design. It takes cues from the classic form of the original Targa: with gills on either side, a surface finish in aluminium and the ‘targa’ logo left and right.

In short, the roof system offers the driving feel of a 911 Coupé and the driving experience of an open-top sports car.
