The new 911 Carrera (Both Coupe and Cabriolet) and Carrera GTS are now available for global orders and are expected to arrive in India in late 2024 or early 2025. Following the 911's transition to hybrid technology, the smaller 718 It will also become electric. For now, the T-Hybrid powertrain is exclusive to the GTS and additional hybrid versions are expected to follow. When launched in India, the 911 Hybrid is expected to be priced higher than the current 911 Carrera, starting at INR 1.86 lakh crore (ex-showroom), and will compete with the Ferrari 296 GTB.

Hybrid Powertrain: A New Era for the Porsche 911

The 2025 Porsche 911 GTS now features a 3.6-liter turbocharged 6-cylinder boxer engine paired with an electric motor integrated into an 8-speed PDK transmission. This hybrid setup provides a combined power of 541 HP and 610 Nm, significantly higher than the previous non-hybrid model. The electric motor itself contributes 15 HP and 150 Nm.

With this new powertrain, the 911 GTS can accelerate from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in just 3 seconds, with a top speed limited to 312 kmph. The improved performance also translates to a faster Nurburgring lap time, now 7.17 seconds, shaving 8.7 seconds from the outgoing model's record. However, the inclusion of the 400V battery adds 50kg to the vehicle's weight.
