Porsche has revealed the new range-topping 911 at the IAA Mobility trade show in Munich- the new 2026 911 Turbo S, claimed to be the most powerful production 911 to date, has been revealed with an innovative twin-turbo powertrain and T-Hybrid technology.
Available as a coupe and Cabriolet, the new generation Turbo S debuts with significantly improved performance, a more muscular design, refined aerodynamics, an optimized chassis, and more.
The new Porsche 911 Turbo S gets a newly developed, 3.6-litre twin-turbo flat-six high-performance T-Hybrid powertrain that develops a peak power of 701 hp, which is a 61-hp increase over the previous model, and 800 Nm of max torque. Using an 8-speed DCT system that delivers power to all the wheels, the Porsche 911 Turbo S sprints from 0-100kph in 2.5 seconds, 0-200kph in 8.4 seconds, and boasts a top speed of 322 kmph. Porsche disclosed that as part of the final development drives conducted in 2024, a lightly camouflaged new 911 Turbo S achieved a time of 7:03.92 minutes, which is 14 seconds quicker than its predecessor.
