The Porsche 911 and Geometric Art




The Porsche 911 and Geometric Art is a mosaic of changing symmetrical patterns of the new Porsche 911 with Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG).

The Porsche 911 is probably the most popular and most typical sports car, not only in Germany where the car was developed and manufactured, but also all over the world. The famous, distinctive and durable car has undergone continuous development since its introduction in 1964. Mechanically it is notable for being rear engined and, until the introduction of the all-new Type 996 in 1999, air-cooled. All 911s use six-cylinder boxer engines.

The Porsche 911 is a sports car made by Porsche AG of Stuttgart, Germany. The famous, distinctive and durable car has undergone continuous development since its introduction in 1964. Mechanically it is notable for being rear engined and, until the introduction of the all-new Type 996 in 1999, air-cooled. All 911s use six-cylinder boxer engines.

Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG).For the first time the power unit of the new Porsche 911 Turbo features an exhaust gas tur­bocharger with variable turbine geometry (VTG) for efficient control of the exhaust gas flow throughout the entire range of engine speed, guiding the flow of air in exactly the right direction and at the right angle to the turbine blades. Allowing the 480-hp 911 Turbo to reach a higher torque plateau in a wider rpm range. Go from 0-60 in 3.4 seconds (with the optional Tiptronic S transmission) and reach a top track speed of 193 mph.
