The Targa came a long way since 1955 from the removable top and rear plastic windscreen that folded into the front trunk and evolved into a unique system on the market, with a coupe-cabriolet uncover style. The Targa 4S was unveiled at the North American International Auto Show in 2014. It was expected, but the way it removed the top of the greenhouse was not. It was not a convertible, and it could have been uncovered only by standing still. The rear windscreen popped out and moved backward, the security arch was dismantled and allowed the soft-top to go down behind the rear seats, and then the rear glass and the security arch was assembled back together. That left the car with the frameless door windows and nothing more above the front seat occupants. The Targa 4S looked similar to the Carrera 4S up to the A-pillars, but the B-pillar was silver regardless of the car's color. Behind it, it was a huge curved and sloped lightweight laminated glass windscreen. Since it was based on the Carrera 4S platform, it featured wider rear fenders than the regular Carrera. In the back, the laminated light strip, with parking and rear lights, was specific for the Targa 4S. The interior of the Targa 4S featured standard sport seats with 14-way power adjustments. There was an option for Adaptive Sport Seats with 18-way adjustments. The engine was still a flat-six unit and able to deliver 400 hp. It was mated to a 7-speed manual transmission fitted as standard or to the optional 7-speed PDK unit. The all-wheel-drive system allowed good traction in all the weather conditions.
