The 992.2 generation could mark the end of an era for the naturally aspirated engines for the GT3

Porsche GT boss says the next-gen 911 GT3 may adopt hybrid tech or turbo power

The Euro 7 emissions standard will kick in from January 1 2025

The writing is on the wall: 992.2 GT3 packs the same power as the 992.1 GT3

The 992.2 GT3 has less peak torque than the 992.1 GT3 - 339 vs 346 lb-ft...

but at least on paper, the new 911 GT3 isn't any slower

Bugatti Tourbillon may be hinting at a hybrid 911 GT3

Porsche still remains a majority stakeholder of Bugatti after its acquisition by Rimac from VW

Other Porsche sports cars are bound to follow

Turbocharging would compromise the 911 GT3's classic characteristics...

since turbocharged engines are typically more muffled and have less-immediate response than naturally-aspirated mills

Hybrids and manual transmissions rarely mix, which begs the question: will the next GT3 come only with the PDK?

A version of the T-Hybrid powertrain as seen on the GTS, may be the solution, unless...

Porsche actually makes the six-stroke engine, it recently patented

Synthetic fuels are another option to comply with stringent emissions regulations, but Porsche is still figuring out the logistics

The entire season of 8 races of the Porsche Mobil 1 that feature 911 GT3 Cup cars run exclusively on e-fuels

We have two more years of the normally-aspirated, non-hybrid 911 GT3

The Porsche 992.2 GT3 may be the last pure, naturally-aspirated track-focused Porsche

Will this be the end of an epic era of Porsche track weapons?

This is a comprehensive GT3 RS conversion, that is based on a 987 Boxster

The creator of this GT3 RS replica is swapped out the 2.7-liter boxer engine for a Tesla powertrain

When finished, the EV 991 GT3 RS will look exactly like Paul's thrid project - a white GT3 RS

The new body is all fiberglass except for the doors

Not detail left untouched. The 991 GT3 RS replica even gets proper mirrors

Eventually, the EV 911 GT3 RS will get a 991 dashboard in place of the 987 dash

The Tesla e-motor will provide 500 horsepower - exactly the same as a real 991 GT3 RS

The creator of this replica believes he can achieve similar weight and weight distribution to the real GT3 RS

The Boxster's convertible body style means a lot less cutting is required, compared to a Cayman

This allows for a more straightforward mounting of the roof and side panels that form the iconic 911 roofline

Despite the looming threat of electrification, Porsche continues to innovate with internal combustion technology

The automaker's latest engine design patent with the patent office squeezes 2 extra strokes in between the traditional 4 strokes, for a total of six strokes

The main feature is a new crankshaft that can alter its center rotating point, essentially giving the piston two different top and bottom dead centers

This means that Porsche's six-stroke engine design features variable compression

The patent describes the working sequence as 6 individual strokes, but also 2 sets of 3-stroke steps

A traditional 4-stroke sequence goes like this: intake - compression - power - exhaust

Porsche's 6-stroke design goes like this: intake - compression - power - compression - power - exhaust

The system would greatly increase the engine's energy efficiency, especially if combined with the T-Hybrid powertrain

A 6-stroke engine, working with the T-Hybrid system, and powered by synthetic fuels would ensure longevity for internal combustion engines

Porsche's head of design recognizes the need for a smaller 911

The 912 could be the solution, but there is a catch

The original Porsche 912 was a four-cylinder 911, produced between 1965-1969 and 1975-1976

Early 912s were powered by the Porsche 356, 1.6-liter boxer engine

Models produced in 1975 and 1976 were dubbed the 912E, and were powered by a Volkswagen 2.0-liter engine

A revived Porsche 912 would make more sense as an EV

A four-cylinder, 911-like sports car would not be well-received by Porsche fans

And a scaled-down 911 will be an impossible fit for the wide boxer engine

Porsche is preparing to launch a few more EV models

If a 912 is among them, it would share hardware with the 718 EV

The 2025 Porsche Macan EV is set to hit U.S. dealerships on 30th September

But before that, a member from the Macan EV Owners forum managed to find EPA-estimated ranges for the Macan 4 and Macan Turbo

The Macan 4 has an EPA certified range of 308 miles

The more potent Macan EV Turbo has been certified for 288 miles

These figures are slightly lower than European WLTP estimates of 381 miles, but align with expectations

Expect a potential 10-15% higher real-world range than EPA estimates

The Macan EV supports 270kW charging, allowing for a 10-80% charge in just over 20 minutes

The Macan EV's 300-mile range is a significant improvement over the pre-facelift Taycan's initial range limitations of just 208 miles

Porsche's commitment to NACS charging in 2025 will provide greater flexibility for long-distance travel

This will give you the ability to soon tap into Tesla's expansive Supercharger network, vastly improving the ownership experience

The Macan EV competes with models like the Audi Q8 e-Tron, BMW iX, Mercedes EQE SUV, and Tesla Model X

The Macan EV offers a combination of performance, range, and luxury

With the all-electric Porsche 718 on the way, the question rises: How will Porsche make EVs more engaging?

Porsche will not be developing a "manual" for EVs, like Toyota and Hyundai

The "manual" transmission in Toyota and Hyundai EVs works by reducing torque on purpose

But simulating the properties of an ICE-powered vehicle sacrifices performance

Porsche's way of making EVs relatively engaging is by not offering one-pedal driving capabilities

That said, Porsche still offers regenerative braking. It just works a bit differently

It's a well known fact that driver engagement is one thing that's missing from most electric vehicles

I praised Hyundai for implementing a well-executed simulated gear shift with sound effects in their Ioniq 5 N

I predicted a trend of automakers adopting similar features, including with Porsche

Porsche has officially denied rumors of adding a simulated shifter to their future EVs

Porsche driver Lars Kern confirmed this and believes electric motors are inherently engaging and don't need imitation

The German automaker will instead prioritize pushing electric performance through features like push-2-pass

But Porsche's stance on simulated gears makes me wonder about a manual transmission in their EVs

Given their focus on electric power's potential, a manual now seems unlikely

Porsche's decision might influence other automakers to also reconsider fake shifters

Porsche rejecting fake shifters highlights the future of electric driving isn't about replicating the past

It's about embracing electric power's unique potential and creating new driving experiences

The Porsche Macan EV starts at $75,300, still holding the title of the most affordable Porsche

Rear-wheel steering is standard only on some Macan trims - 4 and Turbo

Porsche's rear axle steering goes hand-in-hand with Porsche's Active Suspension Management (PASM)

Porsche rear-axle steering first appeared on the 2013 Porsche 918 Spyder

But it became more prominent in Porsche models after the 991 GT3

Actually, Porsche started developing a rear-wheel steering system in the 1970s, for the Porsche 928

The Macan EV and other modern-day Porsches feature a more sophisticated setup

Porsche's rear-axle steering is electro-mechanical and only adds about 22 lbs

Depending on the speed and conditions, the rear wheels turn opposite or in the same direction as the front ones

Porsdhe's rer-axle steering can reduce a car's turning circle by 600 mm - over 23.6 inches

Porsche has some catching up to do on the hydrogen front, but can it have something better up its sleeve?

Porsche developed al all-new V-8 engine that runs on hydrogen

A simulation on the Nürburgring from 2022 showed that hydrogen can power engines with a high specific output

Porsche's hydrogen engine requires highly-efficient turbocharging, borrowed from motorsports

The 4.4-liter V-8 produced 590 hp while easily covering Euro 7 standards without "smog" equipment

Porsche's simulation results in 8:20:20 lap time around Nordschleife, with emissions near-identical to ambient atmosphere

FCEV, likely, won't be the way forward for Porsche since its EV models aren't selling as well as anticipated

Synthetic fuels and hybrid powertrains are Porsche's current focus

But with hydrogen production becoming more affordable, Porsche might rethink its stance on the green fuel

We envision a cross between the Taycan and Cayenne models to be a Porsche van

VW, currently, has the I.D. Buzz, but it is too small to serve as a base for a Porsche van

The Taycan's J1 platform would be the perfect candidate to underpin a Porsche van

Taycan front fascia hints at the Porsche van being fully-electric

Cayenne design traits neatly fit the rear-end design of the hypothetical Porsche van

A more aggressively-styled design hints at a high-performance Porsche van

Mercedes did something similar with the R-Class, but it wasn't a sales hit

This is not the first time that Porsche has made a vam. In the 1980s, Porsche modified a VW T3 Bus, that featured a 911 flat-six

The VW I.D Buzz is only one reason why a Porsche van would, likely, never happen now

2025 brings an all-electric Macan, effectively doubling Porsche's mid-size SUV lineup

The Macan Electric is available in 4 variants: base, 4, 4s, and Turbo

But the Porsche Macan Electric 4S occupies the sweet spot in the range

Porsche Macan 4S Electric is only $9k more expensive than the base model and around $20k more affordable than the Macan Turbo Electric

With 442 hp - 510 with over-boost - 0-60 mph happens in 3.9 seconds

You also get up to 605 lb-ft of torque and the top speed is 149 mph

A low drag coefficient of 0.25 Cd contributes to an electric range of up to 376 miles WLTP

All EV Macan models get a 100 kWh battery pack that can charge to 80 percent in 21 minutes

The off-road design packages increases the Macan EV's ground clearance to 195 mm

Macan 4S Electric comes, as standard, with PASM, Porsche torque-vectoring, rear-axle steer, and self-leveling air-suspension

The front electric motor is identical to those used in other Macan Electric variants, including the Turbo

Porsche Macan Electric also scores the latest 4-point LED headlight design

Inside, you'll find the most premium theme of a non-turbo cabin, so no Turbonite badges

Clean slate: Porsche designed an all-new 3.6-liter flat-six engine for its first hybrid 911, internally dubbed the 9A3

Without the e-motor, the new flat-6 makes 478 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque, most of which available from 1,500 RPM

Debuting on the 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS, it weighs just 77 lbs more than the non-hybrid 4 GTS

The new model boasts a superior power-to-weight ratio of 334.8 hp/ton

Packaged like a mild-hybrid, the T-Hybrid system works more like a full-hybrid powertrain, but lacks electric-only range

The T-Hybrid's 1.9 kWh battery pack weighs under 60 lbs and is located at the front for better weight distribution

According to Porsche, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS T-Hybrid sprints from 0 to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds or less

All accessories on the 9A3 engine are electrically driven instead of belt-driven, making the engine sit 110 mm lower than the old 3.0-liter

The T-Hybrid's system output is 534 hp and 450 lb-ft, which helped the 2025 Carrera 4 GTS to lap "Green hell" faster than the 992.1 Turbo S

Additionally, the turbocharger's e-motor can also charge the battery or temporarily over-boost" the PDK-integrated e-motor

Porsche is expected to release a more powerful T-Hybrid powertrain for the upcoming, 992.2 Turbo S
