[Photo postscript] What happens to the 992 type Porsche 911 GT3 RS?

Posted: August 26, 2020 Updated:

A huge rear wing with a swan neck? Hybridization?

I'd like to avoid writing uncertain content such as "rumors" and "spy shot (witness) information" on this blog as much as possible ... I will write.

This time too, I'm a little worried, so I'll write it ^^

The content of this time is so-called "based on the image and video when Porsche in the test stage was witnessed, it is possible to think about the GT3 RS of the new Porsche 911 (992) that will be announced in the future by overseas media. It is "written" content.

This is type 991

Therefore, the content is officially announced by Porsche, and it is not definitive information, so I hope that you can listen to it with just "There is such a rumor story" ^ ^

By the way, so far, a lot of sighting information etc. has come out about the 992 type Porsche 911 GT3, but not much information has come out about GT3 RS yet.

This is a 992 GT3 spy shot

It came here that the Porsche 992 GT3 RS, which seems to be the first prototype to run on the Nürburgring, was witnessed ↓

First of all, the foreign media also wrote as a comment, "It is uncertain whether this witnessed car is the next generation Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Maybe it's a cup car. "

The reason why they were wondering, "Maybe this is a cup car?" Is because it already has a huge rear wing that catches the eye when you see it.

Because the rear wing looks more like a race than a public road.

Here is it.

Cormorant. Oh, big ... Certainly, this may be a level (appearance) that I would hesitate to run in Tokyo normally. ↓

But why still,

"No, but maybe this is the next generation GT3 RS?"

You can think of it asIt has been confirmed that the next generation GT3 already has a rear wing like the 991 generation GT3 RSTherefore, it seems that the reason is that the next generation GT3 RS will generate even more tremendous downforce, and there is a possibility that it will come out with a tremendous wing.

* From the feeling around the fender, is this the GT3 RS after all? Also the opinion.

This is a 991 type GT3 RS

Also, since the 992 generation GT3 is said to generate 500 horsepower or more with a 4-liter horizontally opposed 6-cylinder engine, the GT3 RS model will come out at least 20 horsepower or more. It is expected to be (probably more than 550 horsepower).

Regarding the transmission, since the RS model is particular about lap time, only the PDK will be provided, but it is said that both the PDK and the manual will be provided for the 992 type GT3.

In this 992 type, it seems that both PDK and manual will be provided even in the GT3 touring package.

By the way, if you take a closer look at this model that was witnessed this time, it seems that there is a charging point like a Taycan on the fender part on the right side of the car.

In the GT3 RS model, it was thought that there was no possibility of electrification, so the part that looks like a charge port may not be relevant ... However, the other day, Mr. 911 said "Hybridization may have to be done to keep the NA engine aliveI was told that, so maybe I was testing such a hybrid model? friend.

However, it is said that the current battery technology has not yet solved the problem of weight, so it seems that models like GT3 RS will not be hybridized yet.

I wonder what will happen to this.

The sighting photo of the car that seems to be the prototype of this 992 GT3 RS is posted on Instagram by racing driver Jan-Erik Slooten who is also participating in the Porsche Cup in Germany.
