@fun364

He was referring to the base model which still uses 3.0 twin turbo engine.

1.9 kWh sounds like it would be plenty for a mild hybrid system so long as the battery can charge and discharge very quickly and do so without damaging the battery i.e. it would need a very long cycle life. TBH it seems like a super capacitor would be better for this job but they take space and are heavy (relatively). A 1.9kWh battery, if discharged in say 2 minutes, could output 1.9/(2/60)=57 kW so if the battery can charge relatively quickly from the turbo and then discharge quickly when on the throttle it could still gave a very healthy burst of energy. It's obviously not designed to drive solely on the battery, just a boost when on the throttle hard.

The only place where I gave an alternative was when I said that a super capacitor would probably do a better job because they have a humongous cycle like (10,000+ cycles) but then offered that it may be a weight and space limitation (and perhaps cost). So again, please tell me where I disagreed with Porsche?

They should reinvent the hybrid naming scheme for this car, its not a hybrid to enchance fuel economoy, its an integrate electric motor system that virtually eliminates turbo lag, and giving instantaneuos power on conditions that require it, sort of like F1 cars.

Fabulous Rory, well done, great review. I loved this thing from the get go when it was announced and have been playing on their website configurating it ever since. I would go for the Targa. The one thing that was a shock was the economy or lack thereof. My only other distraction would be an Artura so when I win the lottery this week I'll be off to both Porsche and McLaren dealerships immediately.

Damn, those Porsche guys are so clever. Ingenious tech making best use of ‘hybrid’ to make their cars better. I have a Cayman (GTS) and never looked too much at the 911 before but if I could afford this I’d buy it tomorrow, outstanding car.

Your reviews are brilliant.

I'm not a huge Porsche fan as I don't find them very aestheically pleasing in looks or sound, but I have to give it to them that their cars always have a great stance. The wheel gap is always just about perfect. I don't understand why other manufacturers can't do the same.

Is it more ecomincal re fuel?

This hybrid is a great example of how electricity can aid the performance car, the sports car, I love that this is how the 911 became a hybrid! But I am really sad to see the manual transmission go. Like, really, I would trade those 50 extra hp for a manual. But I also understand this is the way of the future, I wish manuals didn't go away, but if we put that to the side this is an amazing car with WONDERUL engineering and great fun.

I think the new Hybrid systems are good if in the future it leads to Porsche's amazing new active Suspension systems are available in the 911. Currently these systems are only on the Taycan and Hybrid Panamera as they need large amounts of electrical power to operate. So if a 911 Hybrid means those systems can be brought to the 911 I say go for it Porsche!!!

Crap. Lots of upgrades on the new car. I own a 992 C4 GTS, so very pleased to see the improvements. It's not all about speed, but people like you don't understand that. Just ordered a new GTS with aerokit. Can't wait.

the speaker amplified noise aside,,, I'm betting on the future for the 911. This Gts comes without back seats, you can have them if you want though. But imagine taking that lump of engine from behind the rear wheels, next subtracting that mass of steel PDK and hybrid motor, gas tank, front battery and replacing it with two or four electric motors all between the front and rear wheel ( perfectly balanced ) all providing 7-800 hp and equal or more torque. Add on torque vectoring at each wheel ( for the awd version ) and with the future or batteries where weight will be cut in half with higher density, well, like I said,, aside from speaker amplified noise. But in truth, fake engine noise is already a thing with EV's. And it can only get better, if that is your thing. Me, I'd take precision, and a lightweight balanced car with unlimited torque any day. And yes I did like the noise my 992 GT3 made while I owned it, and even more with my 458.. Thing is none of us have driven an electric sports car that weighs less than a GT3 with twice the power yet.

Older gen 911s are so expensive anymore it doesn’t make sense

single turbo right ?

Where is this place?

I think Porsche is thinking about Longevity and making it efficient.

can an engineer explain why car top speeds are getting lower? this much power and torque and it is 7mph slower than the sub 500hp ferraro f40, and even 10mph down on the fat e60 M5?

That new slatted grill is nasty

Holy Stuttgart

Why didn't Porsche make it fully electric? Because it's a better track car as a gas powered car or even a hybrid. I'm a huge EV fan, but the weight of an EV is just hard to overcome on a track, which is why the fastest Nuremberg Ring laps are in a 911 GT3RS, not a Taycan Turbo GT, Model S Plaid, Lucid Air Sapphire, etc. I guess you could have gotten a better drag strip car out of an EV, but I'm not sure that's what Porsche wants to sell.
