Porsche has fundamentally upgraded its iconic 911 sports car, introducing the new 911 Carrera GTS as the first street-legal 911 equipped with a super-lightweight performance hybrid. This innovative powertrain system, boasting 3.6 liters of displacement, significantly enhances driving performance, setting new standards in the automotive world.
Innovative Performance Hybrid
The 911 Carrera GTS Coupé accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.0 seconds and reaches a top speed of 312 km/h. This model features a newly developed T-Hybrid system that includes a 3.6-liter boxer engine combined with an electric exhaust gas turbocharger. This advanced system utilizes an integrated electric motor to instantaneously build up boost pressure, ensuring dynamic and responsive power delivery. The hybrid system generates up to 11 kW (15 PS) of electric power and includes a permanent magnet synchronous motor in the new, more powerful eight-speed dual-clutch transmission (PDK). This motor supports the engine with extra drive torque of up to 150 Nm, providing a total system output of 398 kW (541 PS) and 610 Nm of torque.
Enhanced Powertrain and Engine
The heart of the T-Hybrid drive is the newly developed 3.6-liter boxer engine. This engine features an electric air-conditioning compressor, eliminating the need for a belt drive and making the engine more compact. The engine delivers 357 kW (485 PS) and 570 Nm of torque even without electrical assistance. The new 911 Carrera models, equipped with a 3.0-liter twin-turbo boxer engine, also see significant improvements in power and efficiency. The 911 Carrera Coupé now goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.1 seconds and has a top speed of 294 km/h.
Optimized Suspension and Aerodynamics
The 911 Carrera GTS features a comprehensively revised suspension with rear-axle steering and the Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC) system, integrated into the hybrid system for enhanced stability and precision. The sports suspension with a variable damper system (PASM) and a lowered ride height provides characteristic GTS handling. Aerodynamic improvements include new model-specific bumpers, adaptive front diffusers, and matrix LED headlights with an HD matrix LED function, enhancing both performance and efficiency.
Stylish Exterior and Modern Interior
Porsche has streamlined the exterior design of the 911 with updates that improve aerodynamics and performance. The redesigned light strip, rear grille, and model-specific exhaust systems add to its striking appearance. Inside, the 911 features a fully digital instrument cluster and the Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system with a high-resolution central display. New connectivity features, including a QR code for simplified logging-on and deeper integration of Apple CarPlay®, enhance the driving experience.
Conclusion
The new Porsche 911 Carrera GTS and Carrera models represent a significant leap in performance and innovation. With their advanced hybrid systems, optimized powertrains, and cutting-edge technology, they set new benchmarks in the world of sports cars.
