Porsche brings Apple CarPlay, Android Auto to 2009–2016 911 and Boxster models

Porsche AG has unveiled a new generation of the Porsche Classic Communication Management Plus for the 911, Boxster and Cayman model lines, the company announced Wednesday.

Compatible with 2009–2016 model year vehicles, the latest PCCM Plus integrates seamlessly into each vehicle's architecture. The system features a 7-inch touchscreen and, on vehicles equipped with a multifunction steering wheel, can also be operated via steering wheel buttons. Existing personalization settings carry over, and drivers can view navigation guidance and current track information directly on the instrument cluster.

The PCCM Plus brings many of the display and convenience features found in current Porsche sports cars to older models. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are fully integrated and can be connected wirelessly via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Subject to local regulations, YouTube video playback is also available while the vehicle is stationary.

In addition, the system displays speed limit information based on map data, while the trip screen shows oil temperature and pressure. For Boxster and Cayman models, the parking assist function — previously audio-only — gains a visual display showing the distance to obstacles.

Satellite imagery-based navigation is also available. The scenic route navigation feature plots optimal routes combining winding roads with panoramic views. The system incorporates the latest connectivity and audio technology, including a nano-SIM card slot with 4G support and an interface for external media devices. Maps support over-the-air updates.

The new PCCM Plus will be available at Porsche centers worldwide in two vehicle-specific versions, covering the 2012–2016 911, Boxster and Cayman (991.1 and 981 generations) as well as 2009–2013 models (997.2 and 987.2 generations).

Meanwhile, Porsche Korea has been expanding its customer touchpoints through a range of marketing activities, including hosting a media preview of "2026 Porsche Vibe Seoul" — the largest Porsche fan festival held in Korea — at the Culture Tank in Mapo-gu, Seoul, where it also made the domestic debut of the new Cayenne Turbo Coupé Electric.
