The Porsche 911 Is Allegedly Getting A New Naturally Aspirated 3.6-Liter Engine

A new report states Porsche has developed a 3.6-liter flat-six in naturally aspirated and twin-turbo configurations for the 911 facelift due in 2024.

Interesting rumor, not sure, how accurate. Says GTS will be 3.6L NA + mild hybrid. I can dig that.

If this is true them it's Amazing!

Yes it is! But Mercedes-Benz AMG 4 cylinder F1 things is better!

Indications I have say it’s true. Which is great cause the GTS right now is a ECU flashed carrera S , it lost its magic.

A NA GTS will be the shit, most ppl don’t require or can live on daily basis with the harshness of a GT3 and the lack of AWD. It will fill a much needed gap, and also will ensure Porsche don’t make a shit load of GT cars like they did in this gen to dilute the GT3 name further.

The sports car manufacturer delivered a total of 320,221 cars over the past 12 months.

The Porsche 911 recorded the largest increase of all model lines in 2023, with an increase of 24 per cent. The 911 was delivered to 50,146 customers worldwide. The Taycan also posted double-digit gains, with 40,629 customers taking delivery of their new car (+17 per cent).

The model with the highest number of deliveries was the Cayenne. Examples of the SUV were delivered to 87,553 customers last year (-8 per cent). The decline compared to 2022 can be explained by the model change – including the staggered launch of the new generation worldwide since the market launch in April, as well as a software update for the hybrid models to ensure the best possible quality. The Porsche Macan was delivered to 87,355 customers and thereby remains at the previous year’s level. In the last year of its life cycle, the outgoing generation of the Panamera posted 34,020 deliveries. The new generation of the luxury sedan, which celebrated its premiere in November, will be available to customers from 2024. The 718 Boxster and 718 Cayman models posted 20,518 deliveries (+13 per cent).

Porsche posts stable sales in 2023: strong growth for the 911 and Taycan

Porsche saw robust growth in the 2023 fiscal year and posted a slight gain in deliveries. The sports car manufacturer delivered a total of 320,221 cars over the past 12 months. That’s three per cent more than in 2022.

It’s going to suck for prospective Macan E buyers who will be told: Waiting list is 18 months but you can buy this Taycan off the lot.

Sounds stupid

Wow, thats crap. I was hoping for a NA GTS . So essentially you need a GT to have manual
Or NA..

You better off buying a Carrera T then and ECU upgrade to get north of 500hp in your vacuum cleaner and call it a day.

 

[martinbo]

Get your NA 4.0 982s and 992s now, while you can. Looks like these are the keepers - never to be repeated.

Yeah, let me just check where I left that 350k Euro.....I can't quite remember what drawer I put it in....

Why you live in NL? I mean just besides the car prices ?

What 992s ? Gt cars you mean? That won’t change for .2 atleast.

 

[martinbo]

What 992s ? Gt cars you mean?

Yes, GT cars. Depends on the accuracy of these quoted speculations. If the next GT3 is only going to be an NA 3.6 litre then I can’t see how it’s going to make the same numbers as a current 4.0.

Oh they Will find a way be sure . Also gt cars ad around 20 hp at facelift Max .

Good question indeed...

 

[hoffmeister_fan]

What's the logic of getting rid of the 4.0 in their GT cars? Emissions? Just doesn't make sense since they draw so much attention and aspiration to the brand.

Displacement tax in China or other nations? Similar to why the 718 Spyder is offered with flat-4 perhaps?
