For the fastest, most powerful 911
It came out, a new "information from people inside Porsche". Suspicious (laughs). However, it seems to be a little more credible, so I will write it ^ ^
The information that came out of Porsche's internal officials this time is about the Porsche 911 GT2 RS, and the content is "Porsche builds the foundation of electrification of 911 with the advanced new GT2RS hybrid".
The next Porsche 911 GT2 RS is scheduled for 2026, and the power target of the GT2 RS designed with a newly developed hybrid drivetrain is 700 horsepower or more.
It uses technology originally developed by Porsche Motorsport for the winning 919 Hybrid at the 24 Hours of Le Mans (later further developed for the recently announced 963 LMDh racer).
After the Porsche 911 GT2 RS is released as a new gas-electric drivetrain, it is said that other 911 models will be offered over the next ten years.
Until now, it was speculated that the future 911 would be equipped with a plug-in hybrid system like the Cayenne and Panamera, but with this new rumor, the future 911 drivetrain is a mild hybrid system. That's what I was able to confirm.
Of course, both speculations are still speculations ^^
If you read the rumors, the system installed in the GT2 RS this time is even more than the one created for the new LMDh car (630 horsepower, turbocharged 4.6 liter V8 petrol engine + 67 horse power equivalent electric motor intervenes). It seems to be said to be advanced.
A Porsche 911 Turbo will serve as the basis for the new GT2 RS, with a twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter flat-six engine complemented by the same battery used in the 919 Hybrid.
Details of how the production cars will be set up are still unclear, but one thing we do know is that the 911 Turbo prototype with the new mild-hybrid drivetrain will have a It has an electric motor and an air-cooled lithium-ion battery that sits low behind the front seats.
In the actual production car, the battery is placed behind the rear seat, and the weight balance of 39:61 is achieved, or not.
Patent filed by Porsche in 2021From , this cooling system has not been confirmed in the mass-produced model, but since it uses the air from the electric turbocharger, there is no need to add a fan.
Production batteries are not directly charged and rely on regeneration to store energy. Along with a multi-stage brake energy recovery system, it is said to develop a variable geometry turbine in the exhaust that can generate electrical energy during acceleration. This is also a Porsche Motorsport system used in the 919 Hybrid.
911 electric drive to 400V
Unlike the 800V electric drive being developed for the next 4th generation Porsche Boxster & Cayman, the 911's drivetrain operates via a 400V system for weight and compactness, and this is what the current Porsche A story that there is even more power than the 911 GT2 RS. No, it's all rumors
While this is electric-only propulsion for short distances, the focus of the new mild-hybrid is to "minimize weight increase and improve performance", so it seems OK.
Insiders say the target of 700 horsepower and above is accompanied by a significant increase in torque, so benchmark performance figures for the new 911 are 0-100 km/h, the top speed of its predecessor six years ago. It will be 2.8 seconds & 340 km.
Whether or not a manual will be available will depend on its ability to handle the additional torque supplied by the electric motor (said to be around 250Nm).
To offset the weight of the electric motor and battery, Porsche used the lightweight body offered in the GT3 RS's Weissach package for the new 911 GT2 RS Hybrid. Porsche says its goal is to keep the weight gain under 100kg.
I wrote a lot, but it's up to you whether you believe it or not.

I'm Rika, the author of this article. Ever since Porsche 911 became my favorite car, I've become totally addicted to Porsche, and I can't stop loving Porsche, so I started this blog. My favorite cars are 911 Carrera (991.2), 911 Carrera Cabriolet (992.1), and 911 Carrera T (992.1).
