2027 Porsche 911
The Porsche 911 needs about as much introduction as bread or beer. The automaker’s venerable rear-engined, rear-or-all-wheel-drive supercar has existed in various forms for nearly seven decades. While it’s been through many changes, one thing has stayed the same: It provides one of the best driving experiences that money can buy, and nearly every other supercar in the industry treats it as the bellwether, the high-water mark to which most others can merely aspire to mimic. There’s nothing quite like it.
There are nearly as many variants of 911 as there are kinds of potato chips at the grocery store, from the base Carrera up to the hybrid GTS—fifteen in all. And that doesn’t count the Turbos or GT3s, which we review elsewhere. Each offers its own unique power level, and there are still manual-transmission variants kicking around, albeit fewer than we’ve seen in generations past. No matter the flavor you pick, your six-figure spend will go toward a car that you’ll feel bad parking for any extended period of time.
Expert Tip: If your tastes lean toward the power-hungry, consider taking a step up to the 911 Turbo, while track aficionados should turn their attention toward the brilliantly capable GT3 lineup.
What’s New for 2027?
Porsche has expanded availability of the manual transmission, now offering it once again on the Carrera S model. It comes with rear-wheel drive and a 473-hp flat-six, offering more power than the 911 T which was previously the only variant available with the six-speed manual. It’s called the MT package and also includes the Sport Chrono package and centerlock wheels.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
The price of the 2027 Porsche 911 starts at $137.850 and goes up to $205.650 depending on the trim and options.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
Engine: 338-hp twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter flat-six; 473-hp twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter flat-six; turbocharged 3.6-liter flat-six with one electric motor, 532-hp combined
Transmission: 8-speed automatic, 6-speed manual
Drivetrain: rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive
The base Carrera is powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter flat-six with 388 horsepower, and it feels like it makes even more. The Carrera S and all-wheel-drive Carrera 4S provide extra power and performance, with a 473-hp version of the twin-turbo flat-six. The 4S is only offered with an eight-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic transmission, but the RWD Carrera S can also be had with a six-speed manual. Both S variants have the previous GTS model’s upgraded brakes as well as a standard sport-tuned exhaust and improved dampers.
The T-Hybrid powertrain in the current GTS is based on the 3.6-liter six-cylinder boxer engine, incorporates a single electric turbocharger, and is supplemented by a powerful electric motor/generator that supplies an additional 54 hp and 110 pound-feet of torque for a combined 532 horsepower. The electric motor shares the housing of the PDK automatic transmission, and it all operates on a 400-volt electrical system. A 1.1-kWh lithium-ion battery stores the juice.
We drove the base nonhybrid 911 and found it to be almost everything you’d want in a Porsche sports car. In our drive of the GTS, the hybrid setup proved impressive, as it operates unobtrusively in the background while providing a welcome acceleration boost to the turbocharged flat-six. We also drove the Carrera T variant and enjoyed the extra driver engagement its manual transmission provides.
0–60-MPH Times
C/D 60-mph Test: 3.7 seconds (Carrera T), 3.1 seconds (Carrera), 3.1 seconds (Carrera Cabriolet), 2.9 seconds (Carrera GTS Cabriolet), 2.7 seconds (Carrera S), 2.5 seconds (Carrera GTS)
In Comparison: The GTS Coupe is the quickest Carrera we’ve tested so far at 2.5 seconds to 60 mph. The mighty Corvette Z06—with a 670-hp V-8 engine—needed an extra 0.1 second to complete the same test.
