In the latest episode of carwow, the gang delves into the controversial changes in the new Porsche 911, stirring up quite a storm among enthusiasts. From ditching the old paddle starter for a more conventional button to swapping out the analog rev counter for a digital display, the 911 is not short of surprises. But fear not, as they show off the customizable digital display that pays homage to classic Porsche racing cars, injecting a bit of nostalgia into the mix.
Moving on to the exterior, the team dissects the facelifted design of the 911, pointing out the integrated indicators and new wheel designs that give the GTS model a fresh look. Inside, the focus shifts to the revamped interior, featuring a fully digital driver's display and luxurious Alcantara accents that elevate the overall feel of the cabin. The performance upgrades in the GTS model, including a new hybrid system boosting power to 541 horsepower, are thoroughly examined, shedding light on the technological advancements under the hood.
A thrilling comparison between the new and old GTS models on the track reveals the prowess of the hybrid system, showcasing its impact on speed and agility. The intricate hybrid technology is demystified by Porsche's powertrain director, emphasizing the blend of efficiency and power that sets the new 911 apart. Despite its practicality with occasional rear seats and ample storage options, the team uncovers some drawbacks, such as confusion with the lap timer function and the visible safety sensors that detract from the overall aesthetic. And let's not forget the disappointment of manual transmission enthusiasts, as the GTS model bids farewell to the stick shift due to the integration of the hybrid system, adding a touch of nostalgia to the mix.
