Porsche expands the legendary 911 range with the introduction of the new 911 Carrera T, a model that combines lightweight construction with dynamic performance and a pure, driving experience. Available in both coupe and convertible versions, the 911 Carrera T is designed for driving enthusiasts who seek ultimate control, directness and intensity on every drive.
Design and distinctive elements that stand out
The "T" in the name of the 911 Carrera T comes from the word "Touring", referring to Porsche's rich history and the first 911 T introduced in 1968 as a touring car. As of 2017, the Carrera T is back in production, splitting its place between the Carrera and Carrera S versions, offering versatile handling and a character that focuses on the basics.
The new 911 Carrera T features elegant design details that emphasise its purist character, such as the sticker with the gearshift pattern on the triangular rear windows, indicating the manual transmission, while the model's lettering on the rear is in Vanadium Grey. The aerodynamically optimised spoiler from the 911 Carrera GTS lends a sporty yet luxurious look. In addition, the mirrors, alloy wheels and exterior details are finished in Vanadium Grey Metallic Grey.
In terms of colours, Porsche offers a choice of three ranges: the Legends (Shade Green Metallic, Crayon and Slate Grey Neo), the series Dreams (Guards Red, Lugano Blue, Gentian Blue Metallic and Cartagena Yellow Metallic) and the series Shades (Jet Black Metallic, GT Silver Metallic and Ice Grey Metallic). For those who want the ultimate in customization, Porsche has Paint to Sample and Paint to Sample Plus programs that allow further options.
Engine and transmission: sports performance for thoroughbred drivers
The heart of the 911 Carrera T is the six-cylinder twin-turbo boxer engine 3.0-litre engine, delivering 394 hp and 450 Nm of torque. Power is transferred exclusively to the rear axle via the six-speed manual transmission, with the built-in feature auto-blip, which automatically balances the engine and transmission speed when changing gears. This offers a unique sense of control and driving pleasure.
The Carrera T coupé accelerates to 100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds, while the convertible version completes the same distance in 4.7 seconds, with top speeds reaching 295 km/h for the coupé and 293 km/h for the convertible. The braking system is upgraded, with 350 mm diameter discs and six-piston front calipers, ensuring dynamic performance and excellent control.
Frame and suspension: Flexibility and directness
The 911 Carrera T includes the Sport Chrono Package as standard equipment, with the Track Precision App offering features for those who want to track their performance. For the first time, Porsche is equipping the Carrera T with Tetra address and PASM sports suspension lowered by 10 mm, with settings specifically designed for the model, enhancing flexibility and total control of the ride. The aerodynamic balance and anti-roll bars have been adapted exclusively for the Carrera T, offering neutral handling and increased stability.
The 20/21-inch Carrera S's 245/35 front and 305/30 rear tyres provide the necessary grip, while the car's lightweight construction, which includes lightweight windows and reduced soundproofing, achieves a total weight of just 1,478 kg, making it 40 kg lighter than the standard 911 Carrera.
Interior: Minimalism and style
Inside, the 911 Carrera T exudes its thoroughbred character, with the sporty, sporty interior and the GT steering wheel with heated leather upholstery and the short gear selector with a wooden handle made of light walnut, which offers a special feeling. The instrument panel features the "MT" (Manual Transmission) logo, while the gearbox logo is also embossed on the passenger seat.
The standard seats are sporty and electrically adjustable in four directions, while the Sport-Tex cover has a classic tartan pattern. Customers can choose 18-seat Adaptive Sports Seats Plus or lightweight full bucket seats for extra comfort and support. The 911 Carrera T also offers design packages with Gentian Blue detailing, such as on the exterior trim, wheels, stitching and interior trim.
