The superior all-rounder among sports cars: the Porsche 911 Turbo S

07/09/2025 - Porsche is presenting the top-of-the-range model of the 911 series at the IAA Mobility motor show in Munich: an innovative twin-turbo powertrain with T-Hybrid technology makes the new 911 Turbo S the most powerful production 911 to date.

The new Porsche 911 Turbo S is following in big footsteps. Its predecessor was already considered the benchmark in the sports car world when it came to combining performance, long-distance comfort, exclusivity and everyday usability. Now, the 911 Turbo S has once again raised the bar significantly in all areas. The sports car, which is available as a coupé and cabriolet, debuts with significantly increased performance, a more powerful design, more intelligent aerodynamics, an optimized chassis and even more exclusive equipment.

"The 911 Turbo S is the most complete and versatile form of driving a Porsche 911. Whether in daily use, on long autobahn journeys or on the racetrack – we have made the new 911 Turbo S even more comfortable, more individual and significantly faster than its predecessor," says Frank Moser, Vice President of the 911 and 718 model line.
