Rear Lid

5522 Front lid

The luggage compartment lid of the 911 Carrera has been constructed as an aluminium shell to reduce weight. This has resulted in a weight saving of 6 kg, or a reduction of 40 %.

5590 Rear lid
As on the previous 911 Carrera, the rear lid is made from sheet steel. Its styling has been adapted to the new body design. The integrated rear spoiler has also been restyled and as before is executed as a double-shell plastic construction. The spoiler extends at 120 km/h to reduce lift coefficients at the rear axle, thereby increasing driving stability.







Since aerodynamic forces are rather less important at low speeds, it retracts at speeds below 60 km/h as a function of the engine compartment temperature to show off the classic lines of the 911 to their best advantage.

The logo on the rear lid of the 911 Carrera is finished in titanium.
