We take a final drive in what, over the years, has become the most versatile 911 of them all.
Our The 2024 Porsche 911 Turbo S Review:
- "Earlier this year, the arrival of a new GTS kicked off the 992.2 refresh, introducing the first hybrid powertrain in the model’s over 60-year history. An electric turbocharger, an electric motor sandwiched between its engine and transmission, and a small battery pack shift the GTS formula, simultaneously providing us a glimpse at 911s to come."
- "At its core sits a 3.8-liter flat-six with two turbochargers strapped, developing 640 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque. For those keeping score, that’s nine horses and a whopping 147 lb-ft more than the recently departed Lamborghini Huracán Tecnica. It’s also 60 hp and 37 lb-ft over the 991.2 generation it replaces."
- "Its eight-speed PDK moves through gears imperceptibly, while its valved exhaust allows only a hum to permeate the cabin. Skip the optional carbon-fiber buckets and stick with the standard 18-way adjustable set of Sport seats, and the Turbo S makes for an ideal car for a trek across the country, even if it isn’t a Cannonball run."
- "With potentially significant changes on the horizon, the 992.1-generation Porsche 911 Turbo S bows out as arguably the best iteration yet. While potential electrification could further boost its performance and supercar appetite, this outgoing model represents the 911 Turbo formula at its best."
-
"From its formidable performance on a back road to its comfort and daily usability and its elegant, spacious cabin, it’s as versatile as a sports car can be. And while its looks may not be as flashy as you’d expect from a car starting at close to a quarter-million, its ability to blend in invites you to rack up the miles. Although it’s on its way out, the Turbo S remains the 911 that truly does it all."
