This model with go into history as the ugliest Porsche ever built. All those good feature in the car was offset by its look. The start-stop activate and deactivate via brake and throttle pedal angle. There should be another switch to disable that feature for daily use. I wonder when the car stop, the air-cond load lessen and less cold air for passengers, not really convenient for tropical country like Malaysia especially KL with humid and city traffic jammed will surely baked passengers, don't you think? how sad that Porsche have to agree that the car was indeed ugly, with the help of nice architecture and hiding the car ugly side throughout the clip.

I don't think an engine needs to be direct injected for start-stop to work. I don't remember the Honda IMAs to be direct injected. They don't even have a starter motor, the IMA motor starts the car. going OT, but a full electric htbrid works better in traffic jams, since u can run on battery power for short distances like the Prius – unlike Honda IMA.

The engine shuts off at traffic lights. Alot of cars have this now, but usually on manual transmission.
