What’s New for the 2025 Porsche 911
The biggest news for the 2025 911 is the introduction of a hybrid powertrain, a first for a road-going 911. The new T-Hybrid system is a performance-focused, lightweight system that allows the GTS to sprint to 60 mph from a standstill in only 2.9 seconds. At the time of writing, this hybrid system is only available on the GTS trim.
The GT3 and GT3 with Touring Package return for 2025 with updated aerodynamics and a few new options. Drivers looking for the ultimate track-focused experience can option the Weissach Package, available for the first time on a GT3. The GT3 with Touring Package also makes available a Lightweight Package, which includes carbon fiber suspension parts and lightweight door panels. Touring drivers looking to bring the family along can now add rear seats at no cost.
The Carrera T is now the only way to get the base 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine with a manual transmission and can be ordered in Cabriolet form.
Design
The 911 is one of the most recognizable designs in the automotive world. To the untrained eye, the exterior design changes for the 992.2 generation are quite subtle. Still available in coupe, cabriolet, or targa form, the 911 gets new front and rear bumpers, updated aerodynamics, new colors, and new Matrix LED adaptive headlights. New standard and optional wheels round out the exterior changes-a total of seven different wheel designs are available for the 992.2 911.
Powertrain
Porsche continues to offer a range of engine and drivetrain options for the 911. The base Carrera and Carrera T get an enhanced version of the 3.0-liter twin-turbo boxer six-cylinder engine, now producing 388 horsepower and 331 pound-feet of torque. The Carrera is only available with the PDK dual-clutch automatic transmission; buyers looking for a manual transmission will need to step up to the Carrera T. At the time of this writing, the Carrera is only available in rear-wheel-drive (RWD) form, but we are expecting an all-wheel-drive (AWD) Carrera 4 soon.
The new performance-focused hybrid powertrain is only available in the Carrera GTS for now. The T-Hybrid system is paired to a newly developed 3.6-liter turbocharged "boxer" engine for a combined output of 532 horsepower and 449 pound-feet of torque. The Carrera GTS is available in RWD or aWD and is only offered with the dual-clutch PDK automatic transmission.
The 911 GT3 delivers the ultimate in track-bred performance, with a powerful naturally aspirated 4.0-liter six-cylinder boxer engine delivering 502 horsepower and 331 pound-feet of torque. The RWD-only GT3 can be optioned with either the seven-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic or the six-speed manual transmission. The final drive ratio is 8% shorter than the previous GT3, which means you can spend more time at the 9,000-rpm redline.
Interior
Inside, the 2025 911 gets a fully digital instrument cluster for the first time. This new 12.6-inch curved display can be customized in one of seven different views based on driver preference. The 2025 911 range also gets a new start/stop button for the first time, on the left side of the steering wheel in true Porsche fashion.
As standard, all 911 coupes are now two-seaters, but rear seats are a no-cost option. The GT3 trim gets new folding lightweight carbon bucket seats; they can be combined with rear seats when optioned with the Touring Package.
Technology
The Porsche Communication System (PCM) is still controlled through a 10.9-inch high-resolution display. Apple CarPlay is more integrated in the PCM, and CarPlay and Siri can now be displayed in the instrument cluster. Apps like Spotify and Apple Music are now native in the infotainment system, no longer requiring a smartphone.
Safety
The new 911 is brimming with safety tech and advanced driver-assistance systems. As standard equipment, the 911 gets Porsche’s ParkAssist system, which includes a reversing camera, lane-keeping assist, cruise control, traffic-sign recognition, curve warning, and fatigue detection. Additional systems like Night Vision Assist, Surround View, and Lane Change Assist are optional.
Pricing and Release Date
As of this writing, pricing starts at $120,100 for the 911 Carrera coupe and $133,400 for the Cabriolet. The enthusiast-focused Carrera T starts at $134,000 for the coupe and $147,300 for the Cabriolet. The performance hybrid Carrera GTS starts at $164,900 for the coupe and goes up to $186,000 for the AWD Targa 4 GTS. Finally, pricing for the track-focused GT3 starts at $222,000.
