Porsche has confirmed plans for a 911 hybrid, and now a prototype has been spotted.
“We spent a lot of money for the LMP1 engagement, but we also learned a lot,” he said. “I think right now we are a step ahead in comparison to other competitors and we want to use it.”
The first members of the updated 911 range, referred to internally as the 992.2 generation, should start appearing in 2023, meaning they'll likely arrive as 2024 models. It's likely the electrified 911 will be a new member, possibly labeled a Carrera S E-Hybrid, or Carrera 4S E-Hybrid if the electric motor is used to power the front wheels.Interestingly, there are also rumors that the updated Carrera will feature ainstead of the current turbocharged unit.
What about the electrified 911 Turbo? The jury is still out on whether this model will also be a regular hybrid or go the plug-in hybrid route.. And the remaining 20% will mostly be hybrids, made up purely by the 911—the last holdout at Porsche for the internal-combustion engine.
