Porsche Carrera T: "T" stands for touring.
No, I'm surprised.
On the morning of October 19, 2022, when I was preparing to go out, the Porsche 911 Carrera T was suddenly announced ^ ^
Let's take a quick look at what was announced:
- The standing position of Porsche 911 Carrera T is "between 911 Carrera and 911 Carrera S"

- 8-speed PDK can also be selected

- The MT Carrera T weighs only 1,470 kg, 35 kg lighter than the 911 Carrera (PDK)
- Eliminates the rear seat for weight reduction
- Lightweight glass and lightweight battery make it even lighter
A lot of standard equipment such as PASM sports suspension and sports chrono package
- Equipped with a PASM suspension that reduces the vehicle height by 10 mm and reduces sound insulation (normally, it cannot be selected for the 385 horsepower engine model for the base model, but it comes with the Carrera T)

Price of the new Porsche 911 Carrera T
As of October 19, 2022, according to the information announced in Germany, the Carrera T can already be ordered from today, and delivery will start around February 2023.
The price in Germany is 123,845 euros (including VAT, etc.), which is about 18.21 million yen at today's exchange rate.
New Porsche 911 Carrera T Domestic price is 16.4 million yen
The price in Japan is 16.4 million yen:
model | transmission | handle | Price (tax included) |
911 Carrera T | 7-speed MT/8-speed PDK | Right / left | 16.4 million yen |
Is it possible to order this Carrera T from Japan in the current situation where the entire 911 has stopped ordering? I was wondering, but as of October 19, 2022, according to the announcement from Porsche Japan, "orders have started" in Japan as well.
It looks like they are accepting it for now. But if you want it, you better hurry up ^ ^
For me, since the manual transmission cannot be selected in the base model Carrera, for those who want to enjoy the base model (engine) Carrera with MT, this Carrera T is even lighter, so it's very fun. maybe! ! I thought ^ ^
I can't help but think, ``I would be very happy if I could ride a left MT on the base model. From the morning, I was thinking alone that I don't have the qualifications to ride the Carrera T, which aims to be lightweight (laughs).
