Meet the Porsche 911 Carrera T. T for Touring
Sweet Seven-Speed Manual 911 Carrera T Has a Rowdier Cockpit Too
Porsche has added a Touring version to the 911 Carrera range. Slotting into the gap between the standard 911 Carrera and the 911 Carrera S, Zufferhausen promises that the new 911 Carrera T brings improved driving dynamics over the base model.
911 Carrera T Expands Touring Range to Four
Packing the same 373 HP biturbo boxer-six engine as the regular 911, albeit now with a seven-speed manual gearbox and a mechanical rear differential lock. Porsche claims 0-60 mph in 4.3 seconds. The 911 now expands the T for Touring range alongside the Porsche Macan T, 718 Cayman T and 718 Boxster T.
Fitted with staggered 20-inch front wheels and 21in wheels at the rear, Carrera T also gets a sports exhaust. A lightweight battery helps the Touring 911 to tip the scales at 1470 kg. Or 35kg lighter than the 911 Carrera with an eight-speed PDK transmission.
A More Austere, Rowdier Cockpit
Design tweaks include gloss-black exhaust tips and dark-grey wing mirrors, door logos and rear grille trim. Step inside to a GT sports steering wheel and electric premium sports seats. The T’s rear seats are removed with reduced noise insulation for a rowdier cockpit.
This car should appeal to owners keen optimize performance in a more personalized Porsche. The classic original 911 T first appeared in 1968 as a racing touring car. 911 Carrera T deliveries commence spring 2023 priced from $118,050.
