The Hagerty team took the new 911 GTS T hybrid for a spin, and let me tell you, it's not your average hybrid. This beast combines a 40 KW e-motor, a revamped Flat 6 engine, and an e-turbocharger to deliver a whopping 534 brake horsepower and 450 lb ft of torque. With a 0-60 mph time of just 2.9 seconds, this hybrid means serious business on the track. The car's handling, thanks to features like the 10 mm drop sports suspension and PDCC, is nothing short of impressive.

But it's not just about power with this hybrid - Porsche has gone the extra mile to ensure efficiency and performance go hand in hand. The integration of the hybrid system, including a 1.9 KW hour lithium battery and 216 cells, is a stroke of engineering genius. The car's energy management system allows for seamless power distribution between the turbo, motor, and battery, resulting in a driving experience that's both exhilarating and efficient.

Despite the added weight from the hybrid system, the 911 GTS T maintains its agility and iconic driving dynamics. The team was blown away by the car's responsive steering, controlled handling, and impressive braking capabilities. And let's not forget the car's sleek appearance, with Venetian blinds at the front, new HG Matrix headlights, and a striking rear diffuser. The 911 GTS T hybrid is a true testament to Porsche's commitment to pushing the boundaries of performance and technology in the world of sports cars.
