Porsche 911 (992)
Compared to its predecessor, the 992 is wider and now uses aluminium body panels. The 992 also has a new rear bumper with larger exhaust tips than its predecessor. While the 992’s rear end width stayed the same as on the widebody 991, at the front, the body width was increased by 1.8″/45 mm, making room for the wider front track. The wider rear end is also standard across the entire range. That is really good news for the people who prefer sports cars with rear wheel drive, but at the same time want the wide body look. The next generation of flat-six turbocharged engines has been further developed to be more powerful than ever. There are numerous revisions and tweaks to the powerful turbocharged engines of the 992 Porsche 911 generation that are worth mentioning. A larger central intercooler is found at the rear, replacing the twin intercooler units of the 991 generation. Carrera S horsepower outputs increase from 420 to 450 as a result. As expected, Porsche launched the Carrera S and 4S first and then we saw the rest of the lineup trickle in over the following 12 – 18 months. See all of our Porsche 992 Research.

Porsche’s new 911 GT3 was recently put under some serious stress testing at Volkswagen’s notorious Nardo Ring test track located in Italy. The team at Porsche ran the car for 5000km (3,107 miles) at 186mph and only stopping for fuel. This means the car spent a total of nearly 17...

The Touring makes sense for those who envision their GT3 more as a daily mode of transportation than a track specialist (it can do both well). GT performance is good enough for any paved road but the Touring was created for a certain type of personality. There is no other car that can invoke a sense of connection and purpose like a GT3 Touring (with a 6-speed manual transmission) can. This is the car to buy and own forever.

The 992-era 911 GT3 confirms that Porsche is prepared to go to astonishing lengths to keep the hardcore faithful happy. The engine is a naturally aspirated 4.0-litre that revs to 9,000 rm and has little in common with the unit found elsewhere in the 992 range and a lot to do with the one in the GT3 Cup car. Power is up a modest 10bhp to 503 bhp, torque to 347 ft lbs. That’s more than enough. It’ll accelerate to 62mph in 3.4 seconds. It is the best sports car on the planet.

Porsche 911 Turbo (992) Earlier this year, Porsche revealed and released the 2021 model year Type 992 911 Turbo S, and, as is apparent all over the internet, it’s been a bit of a hit. Now, riding that wave of success, the new Porsche Type 992 911 Turbo (non-S) has been...

Porsche 911 Targa 4S review Created in the 1960s to compete in the famous Sicilian road race, known as the Targa Florio (the world’s second oldest race), the Porsche 911 Targa has long been a staple member of the 911 line-up. Not every new edition has been offered as a...

Making The Case For Sticking With Manual We’ve covered three different versions of Porsche’s 992 so far: The Carrera S, Carrera 4S, and Turbo S.

Since the Nurburgring Nordschleife reopened to tourist drives (touristenfahrten) earlier in the month, more and more people are now going to the Nordschleife. This is good news for those hoping to spy a car or two out there quietly, or in this case, not so quietly, doing testing and validation...
Like the standard 4S, the Targa 4S produces 443 bhp @ 6500 rpm from a six-cylinder, 3.0-litre boxer engine with twin turbochargers, and puts it to the road via an eight-speed PDK and Stuttgart's refined all-wheel-drive system. 390 ft lbs from as low as 2300 rpm also means you have tons of mid-range power on tap for any situation. Compared to the previous generation Targa 4S, the new model is up 23 hp and 22 ft lbs of torque.
While the base Targa isn't the most dynamic 911, it will suit a certain buyer well. If you want the sexiest looking 911 that is a great all-rounder and you don't plan on spanking it all the time, then this is a great 911 to buy. Even in lower-powered form, the 3.0-liter is a peach of an engine. Torquey across its rev range, it responds quickly to prods of the throttle. The real problem with the Targa is the added weight and the structure, which hurts it dynamically.
This morning, as was teased last week, on Porsche’s own 9:11 Magazine online “TV” channel, the new Type 992 911 Targa 4 and 4S models were officially revealed. The new Targa continues to use the fully automatic roof of the Type 991.2 variant. A few engineering tweaks and optimizations mean...
Which Do You Pick? The 992 Carrera S or the Lotus Evora GT410 Sport? This is almost a year old, but Henry Catchpole compared the new 992 generation Porsche 911 Carrera S against the car he believes to be one of its closest rivals, the Lotus Evora GT410 Sport. It’s...
During the coronavirus lockdown around the world, roads have been emptying of cars. In Europe, Germany locked down pretty quickly, leaving long stretches of its unlimited speed Autobahn sections virtually devoid of any traffic. As such, over the past few weeks, we’ve had some pretty astonishing top speed runs, such...
A week ago, spy shots of the new Porsche Type 992 911 GT3 testing on the Nordschleife in Germany were unveiled. Over the weekend, 19Bozzy92, on of YouTube’s best at capturing raw supercar sounds, was going through his older video captures. To his surprise, he found that he had captures...

All Porsche 911s are turbocharged these days but the Turbo model is something special. It gets the twin-turbo 3.7-liter flat six with tons of power and a huge $33,000 savings over the Turbo S. Thanks to an output of 573 hp, marking an increase of 32 hp over the predecessor, the new 911 Turbo Cabriolet accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 2.8 seconds (0.2 seconds faster than before). The Turbo Cabriolet basically handles like a coupe.
It would be a disservice to call this new Turbo a "lesser" car than the Turbo S, but it does have less in most departments. Less power at 573 HP. Less features compared to the jam-packed Turbo S. Most importantly, less money required to put one in your garage. This also is not to say that the new Turbo isn't anything short of a monster. It will still go 0 to 60 in 2.8 seconds, will corner like it was on rails with Porsche Torque Management (PTM) all-wheel-drive.
The 992.1 Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet is a formidable beast. The new Turbo S comes with an all-new, 3.8 liter boxer six with two variable turbine geometry (VTG) turbochargers. The power output is a staggering 640 hp and 590 lbs-ft of torque. In keeping with previous Turbo models, the engine powers all four wheels. A new 8 speed automatic transmission with a manual mode manages the power, and can power the car to 60 mph in a hair under a claimed 2.7 seconds.
