- Porsche has a knack for making significant changes during car facelifts, and the updated 992-chassis 911 is no exception. The big news for 2025 is that the 911 is going hybrid. The new Carrera GTS model combines the iconic rear-mounted flat-six engine with an electric motor and electric turbocharger, resulting in an impressive 532 horsepower and 449 pound-feet of torque. This model is expected to be available by the end of the year.
The Carrera GTS features a new 3.6-liter flat-six engine, replacing the previous 3.0-liter unit, which will still be used in other 911 models. This new engine alone produces 478 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque, a slight increase over the previous GTS engine. The hybrid system allows Porsche to replace the twin turbo setup with a single electric turbocharger. This electric turbocharger, powered by an 11-kW motor, can quickly spin up for fast response, significantly reducing turbo lag while also recharging the 400-volt battery.
Additionally, a 32.6-hp traction motor is positioned between the flat-six engine and the eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. Both components are powered by a small 1.9-kWh battery located under the front hood, where the 12-volt battery is usually found in other 911 models. The 12-volt battery is relocated to a compartment behind the rear parcel shelf. This powertrain is designed to enhance performance across the rev range while maintaining an optimal air-fuel ratio of 14.7:1 almost all the time.
Overall, the new Carrera GTS is 103 pounds heavier than its predecessor due to additional standard features, including rear-wheel steering, but the increased power more than makes up for it. It’s the first 911 Carrera model to achieve a sub-3-second 0-60 mph time, with a 2.9-second sprint.
Besides the T-Hybrid system, the Carrera GTS also boasts new active aerodynamic flaps at the front to improve cooling without increasing drag. The front and rear fascias have been slightly redesigned, new wheel options are available, and the rear tires are now 10 mm wider at 315/30ZR21, while the front tires remain at 245/35ZR20. Inside, the most notable change is the introduction of an all-digital gauge cluster, replacing the analog tachometer. However, the digital cluster still prominently displays the tachometer, keeping with 911 tradition.
The base Carrera model also receives updates for 2025, incorporating the turbos and intercoolers from the previous GTS and Turbo models. There’s a nine-hp increase, though torque remains the same at 331 lb-ft. The same facelift changes apply to the base Carrera, but the fascias differ from those of the GTS and lack the active cooling flaps.
For 2025, only the base Carrera and Carrera GTS models have been facelifted, with more to follow. The base Carrera will be available as a rear-wheel-drive coupe or Cabriolet, while the GTS will come in rear- or all-wheel-drive coupe or Cabriolet, or as an all-wheel-drive Targa. The Turbo, Turbo S, and GT3 RS models will continue into 2025 as well.
Prices have increased across the board, with the base Carrera rising from $116,050 to $122,095, and the GTS increasing from $152,550 to $166,895. These price jumps are significant, but Porsche emphasizes the added performance and standard features, especially on the GTS.
Facelifted 992 Carreras should arrive at dealerships this fall, with the Carrera GTS arriving closer to the end of the year. Expect the 992.2 range to expand with many more models, both hybrid and otherwise, in the near future.

So this now solidifies the 991.2 as THE best modern 911 in design, build quality and build materials. The 992.2 is what happens when over reacting government regulations dictates car manufacturing. This is 35 years of 911 ownership speaking and owning about every generation of the 911 from the 930 on up to the 992. The pre Covid cars are the ones to own.
Sounds like you own a 991.2. In coming years the 991.1 will be more sought after because it’s naturally aspirated. The 992.2 GTS while being criticized is still a very appealing proposition, and I’d be happy to own one.
Front bumper vertical slats are incredibly ugly and very poor design
blahblahbla...
@@user-jf8gd3lv7q get stuffed
The new front fascia fins look like ass I actually hate this car
I’m not paying 16k more for them to bring me electric now more complex and issues down the road and try to fix those lol or have any one work on this car lol
What the heck are those comments...😵💫😵💫😵💫
All manufacturers are going to hybrid and it is inevitable. However, Porsche has priced themselves out of a lot of customers.
For someone who will be spending that kind of money that Porsche is asking for, a flat six with hybrid will no longer cut it.
I've considered the 911 Twin Turbo but at current pricing, I'd rather just buy a Lamborghini. It's a bit more but we're already well into 6 figure territory anyway.
What the hell was Porsche thinking when designing this hideous front end! 🤮
So Porsche has officially gone down the clown car category with this hybrid system!!!
992.1 more better🎉
Ill take the Eray
What is Eray?
@@rich495 Corvette E-Ray
@@sunnymagneti thanks for clarifying👍🏼 PORSCHE is pig- ugly at the front
The front end is a design mistake. Those vertical fins are so ugly. The previous model, with the horizontal turning lights was way better.
Yes Turbo Hybrid no Mini Cooper Girl Version 🤠😎👌🏻💪🏻
Please stop this hybrid nonsense
Grobar warmin
The changes look horrible!
They’ve made the new car worse than old car. Old car looks better front and back. Especially front. I thought that nonsense was BMW but Porsche is doing what BMW did with ugly grills
🇩🇪🇬🇪🇩🇪🇬🇪🇩🇪🇬🇪 ღმერთი ფარავდეს გერმანიას საუკუნიდან საუკუნამდე ამინ, Porsche არის გზატკეცილის მეფე დიდება მეფეს.
Electric turbo ? Lol or is the electric turbo for the sound lol. Hehehe
look how wide the car is. Not good to drive on this narrow steet!
The front with the airdivusor's,or i must "say" he front spoiler's,looks very ugly!! A Porsche 911 have around 500hp. there realy dont need the heavy bad e-engines and the heavy Akkus made the car to heavy, i dont like the e-cars,and a Hybrid is not what a Sport car need!! I hope you understand what I need to "say"!? Sorry for my bad english best wish Reiner from Germany
I’m not a fan of EV.
It’s not an EV. It’s basically a road going Formula One drivetrain.
@@aaronf.2576 it’s still the ruination of the car, check PORSCHE’ s colossal failure rate on anything electric.
Also, people don’t have an F1;team backing them up for repairs.
The cars front vertical slats are pig-ugly too
Get a human to read the copy, this sounded awful. “Tay-Cometer”?!
