Porsche 911 992.2 Hybrid GTS vs previous ICE GTS

Posted: Posted:June 25, 2024

Drag race portion of the footage shown at the 992.2 world premiere

The Porsche 911 992.2 model was announced on Tuesday, May 28, 2024 at 10:00 pm Japan time.However, this time the announcement was made via live streaming.

On that night, I imagine there were many people who were excitedly waiting for 10pm to hit in front of their computers, tablets, or smartphones. I was one of them.

As those who watched the world premiere that day know, a certain video was shown in the middle of the announcement.

This is a 1/4 mile drag race between the new hybrid GTS and the previous GTS, featuring Mat Matson of Carwow, who is famous for drag racing a variety of cars, and Porsche brand ambassador Mark Webber.

This footage is also included in the Porsche world premiere footage, but this timeMat's personal YouTube channelA video of just the drag race portion was uploaded, so if you want to see just the drag race portion, please click here ↓

Carwow usersI guess the reason it wasn't uploaded is probably due to contractual issues with Porsche?

The interaction between Matt and Mark in the video is playful and cute.

The exchanges in Mat's videos are always so funny, so innocent like a child (lol)
I also enjoyed watching the 992GT3 vs Cayman GT4RS a long time ago. The sound of the Cayman GT4RS was amazing. Mat said that it sounds good, but it would be tiring to drive long distances (ΦωΦ)

  That's right, it always looks like so much fun (laughs)!
  
  Yesterday, my husband experienced the GT4 RS at PEC Tokyo, and even while driving, he said, "It was really loud (lol)"!

    I can experience this at PEC Tokyo! Amazing! (ΦωΦ)
    The GT3 and GT3RS have their engines outside the cabin, but the GT4RS has its engine inside the cabin (in the same space). They even made sure to let you hear the intake sound (laughs).
    
    When I watched the video, I thought it would be fun to drive for a bit, but it's not a car you can drive on public roads. The sound is exciting, but having a conversation inside the car seems like it would be difficult (lol).

      (This comment is probably directed at the blogger who drove the GT4 RS at PEC.)
      
      You can experience the GT4 RS at PEC Tokyo.
      
      That's right, since they deliberately designed the intake sound to be heard from inside, it was apparently quite loud (lol)!

I watched it!
My honest impression is that the speed of the new and old GTS is pretty much the same.

So is the 992.2 Carrera, which uses the turbocharger from the 992.1 GTS, a good buy?! (laughs)

  Hello ^^
  
  Eh, isn't the GTS Hybrid pretty fast?
  
  I thought this video was a Porsche attempt to appeal to the public by saying, "It's so fast, so it's good to have a hybrid!" But if people say, "It's not much different," then the strategy has failed (lol)?
