The complete front end is made from this light yet extremely robust high-tech material. Our engineers invested all their racing experience into it, tweaking and honing into the night. Either way, the next 911 was previewed earlier this year in a series of camo-clad images sent straight from Porsche, so you just know the 992 is very close to making its debut at this point. It is an environment dominated by Alcantara® leather and silver-colored interior parts and brushed aluminum. This results in an impressive torque curve, a high maximum torque and high power output across a broad engine speed range. If this is indeed the new 992, look for it to gain further aesthetic and aero revisions when it finally hits the market.
A hard engine mounting delivers optimum dynamic performance because it offers the highest degree of handling precision possible. This is how it works. Toe angle, camber and anti-roll bars can also be adjusted individually for racetrack use. Squat is how the rear looks. Here is where the mighty sound of its 4. It does so with millisecond precision and a pressure of up to 200 bar. The 992 Porsche 911 is coming soon — we just learned that it will be debuting at the Los Angeles Auto Show next month.
The result is very smooth running and, above all, high power and torque across the entire engine speed range. And, of course, to generate downforce on the racetrack. Brian Williams Car and Driver Competition: , , ,. Negotiating tight corners becomes a more dynamic experience, while parking becomes easier to manage and the turning circle is reduced. If Porsche makes any major changes, they'll be seen here and with the rear fascia design, too. Rear-axle steering Fitted as standard, rear-axle steering combines performance and everyday driveability. This is what we do with dynamic engine mounts.
There's a lot more in the video, so kick back, and enjoy the performance cars of the next few years getting their final polish. Curious to see how tuners extract more power from the turbo setup. What's it like to drive? Porsche Tequipment With the Porsche Tequipment range of accessories developed specifically for your 911, you can style it entirely to your own preference. The likes of a seven-speed manual and all-wheel drive are expected to arrive later in the year. It is available at 6,000 rpm, while maximum power output is achieved at 8,250 rpm.
At high speed down onto the long straight — the hallowed halls of the Motorsport department sweep by in the side window. For even greater precision in your lap time measurements, a lap trigger is available from Porsche Tequipment. True to Porsche style, the five round instruments integrated into the cockpit lead the way. The headrests are embossed with the Porsche Crest. In numerous racing series, including the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup, it has been proven to withstand the harshest demands of the track. As usual, the 992 has mixed-size alloys, with 19s at the front and 20s at the rear with 330mm discs with four-piston caliper brakes nestled inside them.
On the other hand, catalytic converters with stereo Lambda control circuits provide efficient emission control. The latest infotainment goodies will be accessed via a center console digital screen, while an array of buttons will populate the center console. This results in better roadholding and increased comfort, particularly on uneven roads. On twisting roads as well as on the racetrack. Brian Williams Car and Driver Platform: The 992 generation sits on the same platform as the outgoing 991, albeit with some significant changes.
And back it goes once again to the northern corner. Driving feels even more dynamic and agility is increased. Better aero to boost speed during cornering while increasing high-speed stability is on the menu, as is more tech inside the cabin thanks to a digital instrument cluster. Power is provided by a front-mounted 4. These fans will have to be strong now, but we promise: you will be more than richly rewarded. Thanks to their two-piece construction with cast iron brake discs and aluminium brake chambers, they save weight and thereby reduce unsprung and rotating masses. This might be a prototype bumper, but the production model will look a lot like this with only minor changes.
The oil supply principle, which uses a separate engine oil tank, and the concept of four valves per cylinder with cam followers and rigid valve train have also been derived directly from motorsport. We love what we do. Throughout the journey, the real-time traffic information is regularly updated to keep you on the recalculated optimum route. With the partial leather interior with decorative stitching in black, the steering wheel rim and top center marking are lined in smooth-finish leather. But they can be exploited. But, above all, to all the other drivers on the racetracks of this world. It comprises side impact protection elements in the doors and two side airbags on each side: an integral thorax airbag in each seat side bolster, and an upwards-inflating head airbag incorporated within each door.
Tell me about the interior Inside is a trick blend of up-to-date Porsche tech and some neat heritage touches not yet seen before. Useful before yet another left-right chicane on the racetrack: the top center marking in red, available as an option. We can also see a new front bumper with a larger splitter and air intake than what is found on the 992 Carrera, and the rear bumper, while not the final unit, should get a more aggressive diffuser. Alcantara® is easy to grip, wash and maintain. As with the 911 Carrera, an automatically extending rear wing helps to ensure for the necessary downforce in the high-speed range. All cooling air intakes are protected by air intake grilles in titanium color.
