The Real Reason Why MKBHD Is NOT A Fan Of The 2025 Porsche 911 (No, Its Not The Hybrid System)

Having swapped his Model S Plaid for a 911 Turbo S, Marques Brownlee had some interesting things to say about the latest 992.2 generation

Porsche recently unveiled the 992.2 911 generation for the 2025 Model year

This is the first-ever production 911 to feature hybrid-tech

But tech YouTuber MKBHD, a.k.a Marques Brownlee is not a fan for a few reasons

He bought a 992.1 911 Turbo S for his 30th Birthday

He swapped out his previous daily driver, the Model S Plaid for the 911 Turbo S

In the six months that he has owned it, MKBHD has already covered over 8,000 miles

He continues to rate it highly and says its his new bench mark for gas-powered sports cars

However, he's not a fan of two things that Porsche has done with the 992.2 facelift

The first is ditching the old twist-and-go style starter for a generic button from the VW parts bin 😒

The second is going with an all-digital driver display, which tries hard to replicate the 911's iconic five-tube instrument cluster 👎

According to Maruqes, no one even really complained about the analog-digital setup on the previous 992.1
