Lightweight design.<br />
An alloy engine means less weight<br />
<strong>and</strong>, consequently, reduced fuel<br />
consumption. <strong>The</strong> intelligent<br />
engine design also saves weight.<br />
Engine with air-filter housing with a carbon fiber-weave finish in the <strong>911</strong> <strong>Turbo</strong> S models<br />
<strong>The</strong> alloy crankcase is<br />
divided vertically, with the<br />
cylinders integrated into<br />
the crankcase. For optimal<br />
durability, we’ve used forged<br />
connecting rods, along with<br />
aluminum pistons running in<br />
cylinder walls. <strong>The</strong> rods are<br />
made from an aluminum/<br />
silicon alloy <strong>and</strong> cooled via<br />
individual oil-spray jets.<br />

Integrating the camshaft bearing<br />
system fully into the cylinder<br />
heads has also saved weight.<br />
<strong>The</strong> subsequent low levels of<br />
engine friction <strong>and</strong> the efficient<br />
design of the oil supply system<br />
have helped to reduce fuel<br />
consumption even further.
