Porsche 911 Carrera - Storyboards

The GR Supra and 992.2 Carrera may be light years apart when it comes to pricing but are similar in more ways than you think

The Porsche 911 (992.2) Carrera starts at $120,100

The Toyota GR Supra starts at $56,250

With 388 horsepower and 332 pound-feet, the 911 has more power, but less torque, at least on paper

The GR Supra is powered by the B58 engine, which is rated at 382 horsepower and 368 pound-feet

The GR Supra also gives you the option of a 6-speed manual

In 2024, more than half the GR Supras sold were manual

Entering the 911 Carrera is an occasion You still get classic touches like the 5-gauge instrument cluster and LeMans-style key position

Both the 992.2 Carrera and GR Supra are rear-wheel drive and they both sprint to 60 mph in roughly the same time (when both are automatic)

Timeless looks. The 992.2 shape has evolved, but not changed. It's still relatively compact and lightweight

A comprehensive array of optional equipment, including the HD Matrix LED headlights

The GR Supra design will not age as well and the fake vents are off-putting

With only 2 seats, the GR Supra is also less-practical, but features easy access to the rear cargo area

The GR Supra interior is well-built, but a bit too Germanic for a JDM icon

This could be the last Supra with a 6-cylinder engine as the next generation is, reportedly, going to be a 4-cylinder hybrid

Meanwhile, the 911 lineup is gradually being electrified due to strict emissions. Will the next Carrera continue to be non-hybrid?

While not traditional rivals, there is one area where the BMW M4 CS and the latest Porsche 911 Carrera are comprable. Price.

At $120,100, the Porsche 992.2 Carrera can save you over $3,500 compared to the BMW M4 CS, but...

You are getting an entry-level 911 vs a range-topping, limited-edition M4

The rear-engine layout allows any 911 to take off like no other car

However, there is a 154-horsepower difference in favor of the M4 CS, which is also AWD

At the push of a button, the M4 CS can switch to rear-wheel-drive

Whereas the 992.2 Carrera is rear-wheel-drive-only as we no longer have a Carrera 4 model on the base trim

The 911 Carrera can also be had as a convertible while the BMW M4 CS is coupe-only

The 911's 3.0-liter flat-6 "only" makes 388 horsepower and 332 pound-feet, but the car weighs 595 pounds less than the M4 CS

Porsche's comprehensive configurator is rich on optional equipment, even for the base 911 Carrera

But in the range-topping BMW M4 CS, you get a lot of standard equipment

The BMW M4 CS's FR layout makes it the more practical sports car and even the rear seats are usable

Despite digitalization, the 911 interior is just as classically correct as the exterior, but it does feature a smaller infotainment screen compared to the BMW

The BMW M4 CS packs near-supercar levels of performance and could be a future classic

But the 911 has always been a classic, and the only choice for a Porsche enthusiast

Porsche has just taken the wraps of the 992.2 Carrera S for 2025, available in coupe and cabriolet body styles

When Porsche introduced the Carrera S in ’05, the idea was to offer a more potent version of the base Carrera with more power better suspension, and bigger brakes

The Carrera S occupied a sweet spot between the base model and the more powerful and expensive Carrera GTS, which is something that continues to this day

The 992.1 Carrera S, that was introduced in 2019 and here's how it compares to the latest 992.2 model

Porsche has enhanced the 3.0-liter flat six engine to deliver 473 horsepower (30 more than before), which is the same as the outgoing GTS

Here's how the 2025 Carrera S stacks up in terms of power compared to the rest of the 992.2 model lineup

The 2025 992.2 Carrera S is currently available with rear-wheel drive, with an all-wheel-drive variant expected to join the lineup soon

The all-wheel-drive variant of the 992.2 Carrera S should offer improved traction, particularly in adverse weather conditions, improving year-round usability

In the 2025 992.2 Carrera S, Porsche has discontinued the manual option, offering only the 8-speed PDK transmission

You may want to look at the cheaper manual-only Carrera T instead, if you’re looking for a stick with a 992 or alternatively, the more expensive GT3 Touring

The 2025 992.2 Carrera S can get to 60 in just 3.1 seconds, once again with the Sport Chrono Package—a 0.2-second improvement

The 2025 Carrera S comes generously equipped with standard features. The braking system has been upgraded, with discs from the outgoing GTS (16 inches up front, 15 inches at the rear)

Here's a closer look at the most noteworthy standard equipment on the 992.2 Carrera S

Performance-focused features remain intact, including Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV+). Updated dampers have been optimized for both spirited drives and everyday comfort

For those looking to further enhance their Carrera S, Porsche offers several enticing options

The Front-Axle Lift System is a practical option, providing added peace of mind by allowing the front of the car to be raised to clear obstacles

The 2025 992.2 Carrera S retains the iconic 911 silhouette but introduces subtle updates

At the rear, design cues similar to the 992.2 GT3 Touring are present, including updated reflectors and rear bumper design, while maintaining the oval exhaust outlets

Stepping inside, there’s expanded use of leather. The Exclusive Manufaktur Leather Interior ($15k) offers up to 48 two-tone combinations

Additionally, the standard two-seat configuration can be expanded. If you want, rear seats can be added at no extra cost

You now get an all-digital instrument panel replacing the traditional analog tachometer and a start-stop button instead of the Le Mans style twist-to-start

The 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera S Coupe starts at $146,400. A 15k premium over the 992.1 Carrera S. Here's how the Carrera S compares to other 992.2 models

What are your thoughts on the 992.2 Carrera S. Did Porsche deliver? We’d love to hear your thoughts

The 992.2 update began rolling out in May 2024 and the Carrera S trim was the latest to get the .2 update. Here's what we got and what we are missing

5. A distinctive look. The 992.1 Carrera and Carrera S looked identical except for the badging

The 992.2 Carrera S unfortunately continues this trend

The recently introdcued 992.2 Carrera T for example introduced some bold new colors and wheel designs along with a beach-wood shifter, that is unique to the model

4. All-wheel drive. The 992.2 Carrera S continues the trend of rear-wheel-drive-only

The Carrera S has been offered with a choice of RWD or AWD as it has been for the last 20 years. Perhaps a C4S is coming soon?

3. Analog gauges. The 992.2 update introduces a full digital instrument cluster, featuring the classic 5-gauge design.

At the very least, an analog rev-counter would have been nice for the 992.2 Carrera S as it is the focal point of the instrument cluster

2. A non-hybrid powertrain. The 992.2 Carrera S got this one right. It now packs 992.1 GTS power output

A non-hybrid engine would keep the weight down by some 110 pounds

Not going hybrid keeps the Carrera S price and performance right in-between the base Carrera and the GTS

1. A manual transmission. Currently, the Carrera T and GT3 models are the only 992.2 variants to give you the option of a six-speed manual. 992.2 Carrera S is PDK-only

Bringing back the seven-speed manual would have made the 992.2 Carrera S stand out even more

From wearables to merchandise and gear, Porsche Design has an extensive list of products on sale today

While the PD brand has a loyal fan-base, brand caché has taken over and anything inspired by the Porsche brand sells

Take for example this 2.7-RS lamp

Or this frankly bizarre pair of shoes, designed to quite-literally look like a 911

Along similar lines, is this GT3-inspired stroller, that thankfully isn't real

But the madness continues with yet another Facebook find, this time a bag-pack designed to look like the rear-end of a Porsche 911

The main shell with features like vertical strakes that generally sit above the rear-air intake, found in entry-level 911 Carrera models. There's even a rear wing

Other defining features include details like the reflectors on the rear bumper

The pre-finished stage shows off a silver fabric layer, (designed to mimic paint I suppose) that wraps onto the shell. Spot the light-bar and Porsche script

Would you consider it over a more conventional bag-pack from Porsche design, which starts around $160?

This aerodynamic 911 bag is priced at $120 according to the Facebook listing

If you were apprehensive about the next-gen Carrera S's existence, the most popular 911 trim is not going anywhere

The 992.2 Carrera S is happening and thankfully, it will not be a hybrid like the 992.2 GTS

Instead, the Carrera S will continue to rely on the 3.0-liter, twin-turbo flat-6 seen on the base model 911

However, the 992.2 Carrera S is expected to feature upgraded intercoolers and turbos for increased power

While not confirmed, power is expected to be around 500 horsepower

The 6-speed manual, (instead of 7), similar to what we saw on the recent Carrera T, is also expected to stick around for the 992.2 Carrera S

The 992.2 Carrera S manual is also expected to share an identical, differential setup to the manual-only Carrera T

Higher up the ladder, the 992.2 GTS will not be the only hybrid 911

The 992.2 Turbo is also around the corner and it will feature a similar setup to the 992.2 GTS

The 992.2 Carrera S should arrive in the first half of 2025 with the Turbo model, joining the lineup few months after

The 986 Boxster is the most affordable way to get behind the wheel of a Porsche sports car

You get much of the 996 tech and its problems. Decent examples cna be had for around $7,000

Porsche 968 is the final evolution of the 924. It features the brand's largest inline-4 engine

There is also a cabriolet version with an electrically-actuated soft top, which many owners convert to a manual

Good, highly-original 968 examples can be found from $11,000

The 996 was a bit too much innovation for Porsche purists. Sadly, quality was also inconsistent

Still, this is, currently, the most affordable 911, and the first one to feature an all-new platform

There is also a quirky "Targa" variant with a panoramic roof and a hatchback rear glass

The M96 engine has its issues, but by now, the IMS and RMS should have been replaced, given the car's age

A range-topping 944 can be had for way under $30,000 in good condition

All 944 Turbo models get the new dashboard and almost all except the 1986 model year have ABS as standard

The 944 Turbo was also sold as a cabriolet

The 944 Turbo body is galvanized and the mechanicals are generally stout, but electrical issues are common

Porsche 928 was born out of necessity after the 930 Turbo did a number on Porsche's reputation by trying to kill its owners

The answer to the "Widowmaker" was one of the most advanced cars of its time, featuring a revolutionary rear axle, front-mounted V-8, and rear-mounted transmission

Most 928s were sold with an automatic, but you can find great 928 S models with the dog-leg manual, for under $30,000

US-spec 928s were down on power compared to EU variants, due to smog regulations, but a few minor tweaks can unlock the V-8's full potential

The 997.1 Carrera is what the 996 should have been. Sadly, the M96 engine is present on the base model, and it comes with a few risks

Porsche 997.1 is the last Porsche before the PDK era. If you want an automatic, you'll have to settle for the Mercedes-derived 5-speed automatic

If you don't mind the automatic, you can pick up a decent example for around $15,000

Porsche has built some truly astonishing and historically significant models in its 75+ years of existence

Porsche Type 64 was founder, Ferdinand Porsche's vision of the perfect sports car

Despite the VW Beetle engine, it was one of the fastest cars of its day in 1939, thanks to a very low drag coefficient

The 356 was Porsche’s sports car, long before the 911

The 1,113-cc, air-cooled flat-four was a carry-over from the Type 64 and is the precursor to all other 356s and it is a true one-off car

The 1953 Porsche 550 Spyder was the brand's first race car

550 corresponds to the weight figure in kilograms - 1,212 pounds

Originally conceived as a Le Mans-winning car in 1969, the Porsche 917 laid the foundation for future turbocharged Porsches

Between 1969 and 1971, a total of 37 cars were built, in different body styles and varying power outputs

Later variants of the Porsche 917K developed up to 1,580 horsepower

The 2.7 Carrera RS established many traditions in the 911 lineup

Making its debut in 1972, this was the precursor to Porsche 911 GT models

It was the first Porsche to feature a ducktail spoiler, among other features

Thanks to a Mezger-build flat-6 the Carrera 2.7 RS was the fastest car of its day

The original 911 Turbo earned a grim reputation and an awesome nickname - the Widowmaker

The way the turbo built boost made the car violent and fairly unpredictable, causing many accidents, some of which fatal

Despite that, the Porsche 930 Turbo is one of the most desired, classic 911s

In 1986, the Porsche 959 was officially the fastest production car in the world

The 959 is Porsche's first supercar and one of the most advanced vehicles of its time

Its flat-6 was partially water-cooled and featured twin turbochargers, good for 444 or 508 horsepower in the 959 S

The Porsche Carrera GT is considered the last analog supercar, featuring next to zero driver assists and a manual transmission

Its V-10 engine was originally meant to be used in racing but was later adapted for road use. To this day, it has one of the most iconic sounds

Similar to the 930 Turbo "Widowmaker", the Carrera GT developed reputation for being very demanding on the driver

While most automakers are phasing out manuals, Porsche continues to offer five models with a stick

The base-model 718 and 718 S models are still available with a 6-speed manual transmission

Even in base form, the entry-level Porsche sports car can hit 60 mph in 4.7 seconds, with the manual

The 718 GTS 4.0 features some of the GT4 characteristics, but in a tamer form

Unlike the PDK-only GT4, the GTS 4.0 can be had with a 6-speed manual

With 400 horsepower on tap, 0-60 mph in t he GTS 4.0 takes 4.3 seconds with the manual

The 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera T comes exclusively with a 6-speed manual

The 992.1 Carrera T was available with PDK or a 7-speed manual, which is no longer on offer

Like the 992.2 Carrera, the T-model features turbochargers from the 992.1 GTS, giving it more power

The 992.2 Porsche 911 GT3 is here and despite not having more power, it still features a manual 6-speed

Like before, you can choose between the winged variant or the more subtle GT3 Touring

Unlike these two, the even-more-radical GT3 RS is now a PDK-only car

The most lightweight Porsche 992.1 weighs just 3,042 pounds and comes with a short-ratio 6-speed manual

Based on the GT3, the S/T does away with the big wing, but still features a radical body kit with optimized aerodynamics

The 911 S/T also packs more power than the GT3 models

Porsche recently updated the 992.2 Carrera T and here's how it compares to the outgoing model

Upfront, you get a revised headlight setup and front bumper keeping in line with the 992.2 generation Carrera

The side remains largely the same with new wheel designs and exclusive vanadium accents and the manual only sticker on the 992.2 Carrera T

At the rear, you'll notice a slightly revised bumper and tail-light design, with the .2 model featuring a lot more plastic than before

The 2025 911 Carrera T features a 3.0-liter twin-turbo flat-six like its predecessor, but with a few different components

This engine is capable of pushing out 388 hp and 331 lb-ft of torque

When compared to the older model, the new one cranks 9 more horses. According to Porsche the 992.2 Carrera T can do 0-60 mph in 4.3 seconds, which is exactly the same as before

You can get the 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera T only with a manual gearbox. The shifter has a wooden knob for exclusivity

This six-speed unit utilizes first six gear ratios of the previous 7-speed unit

Additionally, the auto rev-match feature remains untouched

The 992.2 Carrera T is available as a Cabriolet, for the first time

Another major change inside the cabin is the inclusion of a 12.6-inch driver information display, replacing the older analog digital unit

Previously optional rear-axle steering is now offered as standard

The front 13.8-inch brake rotors get six pistons as opposed to four from the outgoing model

The new 911 Carrera T weighs 3,316 pounds

That's 62 pounds more than the model it replaces: the 992.1 911 Carrera T

With the 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera T starting at $134,000, it remains to be an expensive affair

That makes the 992.2 model $14,000 more expensive than the outgoing 992.1 model

Available as both a coupe and a cabriolet for the first time, the Carrera T is a manual-only 992.2 that harkens back to 1968

The Carrera T is a light-weight model that slots in between the base Carrera and the yet-to-be-launched Carrera S

Weight reduction measures include lightweight glass, minimal insulation, and carbon-fiber bucket seats

The 2025 911 T features a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter flat-six engine with 388 horsepower, up from 379 of the base 911 Carrera

The Carrera T boasts a host of performance upgrades, including rear-axle steering, revised anti-roll bars, and Porsche Active Suspension Management

The car's exterior is distinguished by Vanadium Grey Metallic accents, a black stainless steel sports exhaust, and a GTS front spoiler

The interior features black sports seats, a heated GT sports steering wheel, and an open-pore walnut laminated wood gear knob

The 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera T starts at $134,000 for the coupe and $147,300 for the convertible

Orders for the Carrera T are open now, with deliveries expected to begin next summer

If you've ever wondered, which were some of the most noteworthy Porsche's to be destroyed on the silver screen, we've got you covered, with five examples

In Risky Business (1983), starring Tom Cruise, they destroyed a Porsche 928

This is allegedly the car that Tom Cruise learned to drive stick in

The 4.5-liter V-8 in this 928 made just 219 horsepower since US models were strangled by regulations

Porsche 928s equipped with a manual transmisison account for only 10 to 15 percent of all 928s produced

The "Risky Business" Porsche 928 was finished in Platinum Metallic. A few cars were used - some survived

The movie Torque (2004) was a playful joke from motorcycle riders to car drivers. A Speed Yellow Porsche 993 was caught in the middle

The air-cooled Porsche was squashed by a Hummer H1 that landed on top of it

The movie car was made to look like a 993 Carrera RS Clubsport, but a experts will notice the irregularities

In Death Race (2008), one of the racers drove a heavily-modified 911 G-body with a missile launcher at the front

The G-Body 911 has its own charm, but that wasn't enough to spare one particular example from being blown to bits

The car was confirmed to be a 1988 Porsche 911 Carrera SC, which stands for "Super Carrera"

This means that the 3.0-liter flat-six is fuel-injected and has a 5-speed, 915 manual transmission

They spared no expense when filming the 2007 Reline. Not one, but two rare Porsches were crashed

The 2 Carrera GT cars that were destroyed in the movie were, allegedly, owned by the movie director, Andy Cheng

Just 1,270 examples of the Porsche Carrera GT were made, and more than a few had already been crashed

In Fast X (2023), they destroyed a real Porsche 997 GT3 by blowing it up

The 997 represents one of the most iconic, modern-day 911s, including the last Mezger-powered 911 and the last manual Turbo

If you've ever wondered about the associated costs with the latest Porsche 911, here's a quick break down

Every Porsche 911 comes with a 4-year/ 50,000-mile warranty

An oil change is the only maintenance required at the 1-year mark and will set you back between $450-$625

For year 2, Porsche advises you flus hthe brake fluid and change the pollen filter - $1,450

At 30,000 miles, you will need to change your 911's spark plugs

Year 4: time for the first major service - belts, pulleys, filters

During your fifth year, you are no longer under warranty. You can save some money by going to a trusted independent specialist

A drive-belt replacement at 60,000 miles is a must. It will set you back $750 on average

If your Porsche 911 has a PDK transmission, you need to service it every 60,000 miles

If your 911 has a manual transmission, the service interval is 12 years or 120,000 miles. It's also cheaper to service than the PDK

The differential fluid needs to be changed at the 10-year mark. AWD models have two

Ownership of every brand-new 911 starts with a sales tax - typically between 0 and 8.25 percent depending on the state

Insurance and gas guzzler tax for the 911 will set you back at least $1,300 each

Manual-equipped cars have a higher gas guzzler tax than PDK equipped 911s

This tastefull -modified Porsche 997 Cabriolet is one man's vision of how the car should have come from the factory

RUF and Reinald Mattes have enhanced the performance and aesthetics of this 911

The car didn't start as a RUF vehicle. At some point, it received the RUF R Kompressor conversion

The main highlight is the M97 engine, which now features a centrifugal supercharger among other supporting upgrades

The result - 435 hp and 347 lb-ft instead of the stock Carrera 4S' 355 hp and 295 lb-ft

The 0-60 mph time drops from 4.7 to around 4.0 seconds with the new top speed being over 190 mph

RUF body kit gives the Carrera 4S GT3-like aesthetics

The exterior is finished in Matt Titanium Gray, by Mata Automotive

The cognac interior is also done by Mata and features subtle carbon inlays. Note the six-speed manual

Even nature itself couldn't stop this 911 EV race car from happening

Chris from Ruffian Cars joined forces with Electric GT to create this obscene track monster

The race-tuned chassis was already made to handle the extra power, so an EV conversion was a no-brainer

The ultra-wide body is done by John James Racing, and there are a few other renowned names involved in the project

Despite featuring a Tesla powertrain, the car tips the scales at just 2,800 lbs

That's because most of the body has been redone in fiberglass

450 hp and 332 lb-ft go to the rear wheels through 17-inch wheels, wrapped in slick tires

The Tesla drivetrain required some clever engineering to make the 911 handle predictably

In true 911 tradition, the e-motor is mounted at the rear. The battery pack is separated for better weight distrobution

Speaking of weight distribution, it's 28/62, which is similar to a stock Porsche 930

The race car theme continues inside the stripped-down interior

The final look of the car includes ducktail delete and sealed-off front air intake

Porsche's recent focus on the hybrid 911 is why the Carrera S will take longer to arrive

Porsche's decision to not offer its most popular 911 right away shows the German automaker is willing to go the extra mile to push the electrified 911 in our faces

There is no Carrera S prototype spotted yet, which means it will be based on one of the existing 992.2 models

We know the base 992.2 Carrera received the 992.1 GTS' turbochargers. A 992.2 Carrera S could get the 992.1 Turbo's setup

One source claims the 992.2 Carrera S would feature a hybrid setup, similar to the 2025 GTS

A hybrid powertrain on the Carrera S could have some consequences for the more analog focused driver

It automatically rules out a manual 911, at least for the mainstream models

A fairly reliable source quotes a power figure of 510 horsepower for the upcoming Carrera S

However, this power figure puts it dangerously close to the T-Hybrid-powered Carrera GTS

The 992.2 Carrera S could also introduce a more distinctive design that separates it from other 992.2 models

A 500-plus horsepower, hybrid Carrera S would be a big jump from the base Carrera, unless Porsche is planning something special

So you want a 992 Dakar, but don't want to pay the steep price? The guys at Five Nine Design have a solution

The Florida-based company has made a bunch of 991 and 992 Safari conversions that rival the Dakar in terms of off-road capabilities

This one started life as a 2021 992 Carrera, finished in Pure White. The company is working on a few more similar 992 Safari conversions

The iconic ducktail rear spoiler is one of the must-have exterior upgrades

The 18-inch wheels corm from Rotiform and are wrapped in all-terrain Toyo tires

The valved coil-over suspension gives the 911 much needed ground clearance

The luxurious and functional 992 interior remains largely unchanged

But it now features rubber floormats and green "Offroad" accents

The 992 Safari gets new exhaust, engine software, and air filters for a slight bump in power

So the 3.0-liter, twin-turbo boxer engine is expected to make a lot more than the conservative 380 hp Porsche claims

A real bargain: this 911 Safari went under the hammer for $138,000 - a fraction of the Dakar's price tag

The Porsche 964 is one of the preferred platforms for reimagined, classic Porsche 911s

REEN Cars of Germany has done just that with this Guard's Red 964

They took the standard engine and replaced it with the flat-6 from the 997.1 GT3 RS

The M97.76 is one of the last Mezger engines. It makes 415 horsepower and 299 pound-feet of torque

The people at REEN Cars have optimized the engine's performance and peak power is now produced closer to the 8,200 RPM redline

This 964 still features the stock 5-speed manual, but with revised gear ratios

The REEN Porschce 964 RS GT is a subtle homage to the original, 1991 Porsche 964 RS N/ GT

Only 291 original 964 RS N/ GT cars were made and was the closest thing to a 964 GT3

The interior is, largely, original, with a few motorsport-inspired elements like bucket seats and MOMO steering wheel

REEN Cars is working on a similar treatment for the Porsche 993 chassis

While the T-Hybrid equipped 911 Carrera GTS is more techy, the regular Carrera is all the 911 you need

Even for an entry level car, the 2025 911 Carrera is quite expensive, starting at $122,000

The base 911 is quite the potent sports car, thanks to a massaged 3.0-liter twin-turbo flat-six pushing out 388 hp, 9 more than the outgoing Carrera

The slight increase in power makes the 2025 911 Carrera a tenth of a second quicker to 60 mph: 3.7 seconds. Top speed is rated at an astounding 183 mph

You can do some laps in a 911 Carrera. For the 2025, it gets larger brakes with six-piston brakes.

Also, the base 911 Carrera is lighter than the hybrid GTS, which means it can corner more efficiently

For the 2025 model year, Porsche updated the front bumpers and the LED lights, which now comes with Matrix LEDs as standard

You can opt for these optional HD Matrix LEDs if you'd want, for $2,530

Stepping inside, there are some major changes, including a 12.6-inch fully digital driver's display and a regular start/stop button instead of a LeMans-style knob

Like all cars, the 911 has been getting larger and heavier with each generation

The Porsche 911 has grown from the original's 2,370 pounds to over 3,800 pounds in some variants

Porsche design boss, Michael Mauer talks about the possibility of a more compact 911

A more compact 911 is, indeed, possible, but it would, likely, be fully-electric

The 992 is already pushing the limits of packaging in terms of powertrain. E-motors are lighter and more compact

Solid-state batteries would ensure smaller and lighter battery pack without sacrificing range and performance

Porsche will not kill off the ICE-powered 911 like it doing with the 718

The two models could co-exist, but they would need to be differentiated in terms of design. Taycan-style front end on a 911 EV?

Porsche might consider a different name for the scaled-down 911 EV. Will the 912 return?
