New gen Porsche 911 Turbo S Coupe and Cabriolet unveiled

A new 3.8-litre boxer engine with two VTG turbochargers represents the beating heart of the car and puts out 60 hp more than its predecessor. Maximum torque now stands at 590 lb.-ft. - an increase of 37 lb.-ft. The engine is paired with a Turbo-specific eight-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) dual-clutch transmission. As a result, it goes from zero to 60 mph in just 2.6 seconds (2.7 seconds for the Cabriolet), which represents a 0.2 second reduction compared to the previous model. The 911 Turbo S Coupe reaches the standing quarter mile mark in 10.5 seconds. Top track speed for both Turbo S models is 205 mph.

The body of the new 911 Turbo S is wider than its predecessor to further enhance driving dynamics: it’s now approximately 1.8 inches wider at the front (72.44 inches), and the overall width is 74.8 inches at the rear axle (an increase of 0.78 inches). Modified track widths, optimized aerodynamics, and new tyres contribute to its agility and sportiness: the track is now 1.65 inches at the front axle and 0.39 inches wider at the rear axle. The adaptive aerodynamics now include adaptive cooling air flaps at the front, while the larger rear wing has been designed to provide even more downforce. For the first time, the 911 Turbo S transfers its power to the road using staggered center-lock wheels in two different diameters: 20-inch wheels at the front are wrapped in model-specific 255/35 tyres, while the 21-inch rear wheels use 315/30 tyres. The front and rear tyres are 10 millimeters wider than on 2020 911 Carrera S models and compared to previous 911 Turbo models.
