The new 911 Carrera 4 GTS marks a milestone as the first mass-produced model in Porsche’s history to feature the hybrid system.

The T-hybrid 3.6-liter engine propels the car from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3 seconds, reaching a top speed of 312 km/h.

This model incorporates racing technology to reduce weight and maximize performance. Its aerodynamic design minimizes drag, while a fully digital cockpit provides intuitive control.

The 911’s hybrid transformation is not just about technology. It reflects Porsche’s future strategy, which is based on its heritage and brand identity.
