Porsche has unveiled the 992.2-generation 911 Turbo S in both Coupe and Convertible body styles — marking the first time the Turbo S adopts a hybrid powertrain.

The 992.2 Turbo S features the latest technology first introduced in last year’s 911 GTS. While the GTS uses a single electric turbocharger, the Turbo S comes with two eTurbos, boosting total output to 701 hp and 800 Nm of torque.

The car retains its 3.6-liter flat-six engine but adds a 1.9 kWh high-voltage battery and an electric motor integrated into the 8-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission, sending power to all four wheels via Porsche Traction Management. It accelerates from 0–100 km/h in 2.4 seconds and 0–200 km/h in 8.4 seconds (with Launch Control), making it 0.2 seconds and 0.5 seconds quicker than the previous model, respectively. Top speed is 320 km/h, 8 km/h lower than before.

In late 2024, during final testing, a prototype lapped the Nürburgring Nordschleife in 7:03.92 minutes, a full 14 seconds faster than the previous Turbo S. One key factor behind this improvement is the electro-hydraulically controlled Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control system, which reduces body roll and increases agility. It runs on the same 400-volt electrical architecture as the GTS, offering quicker responses than purely hydraulic systems.

The 992.2 Turbo S comes equipped with ceramic brakes measuring 420 mm at the front and 410 mm at the rear, paired with 255/35 ZR 20 front tires and 325/30 ZR 21 rears. To manage the increased performance, Porsche has added vertical cooling flaps, an active front diffuser, and an extendable rear spoiler to improve cooling, reduce drag, and enhance handling. The exhaust muffler and tips are made from titanium, helping to reduce weight.

Inside, the cabin retains the signature 992.2 design but adds special details such as Turbonite accents on the steering wheel, instrument cluster, center console, and seat belts, complemented by carbon-fiber trim with Neodyme highlights and a black Race-Tex headliner.

The Coupe is available as a two-seater (rear seats are a free option), while the Cabriolet comes exclusively in a 2+2 configuration. Both versions can be personalized via the Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur program, including the Paint to Sample option and a chronograph from Porsche Design.

In the United States, sales will begin in Spring 2026, with the Coupe priced from $270,300 (approx. THB 8,668,000) and the Cabriolet from $284,300 (approx. THB 9,117,000).
