Wheels Australia – August 2019

AT 3.4SEC TO 100KM/H, THIS 911

CARRERA IS QUICKER THAN A 997 GT2 RS,

DEMOLISHING THE QUARTER IN 11.6

Oneoftheperilsofmid-winterroadtesting is that the

sunoftenlackstheradiantenergytodry the roads until

midday. Fortunately the 992 has a trick up its sleeve. A

suite of microphones in the front wheelarches can detect

the specific frequencies of damp surfaces, and with Wet

mode engaged, it primes the traction and stability control

systems to intervene earlier and more sensitively than in

dry conditions.
