Achleitner drops a clue that indicates the 911 hybrid will be a plug-in. He says that company simulations show a plug-in would add about 440-500 pounds to the overall weight, but simulations haven’t been done for a standard hybrid, which he estimates would add half as much weight.
...
If Porsche were to develop a more potent motor than what’s in the Panamera hybrids and add it to the twin-turbo 3.0-liter flat-6 engine in the new Carrera S model, 600 horsepower could be within reach.
That’s a number that fits with Achleitner’s desire for the 911 hybrid to be a car “the customer goes into the showroom and says, ‘Wow, that’s a car I want to have.’” He also notes the hybrid’s performance must more than overcome the extra weight it adds. If not, Achleitner muses, he’d just take a C4S, which would be less expensive.

The back seats got to go. No one can really sit in them...sure small kids....but for that purpose Panamera is better option. Back seats go - we have room and space to play with things.
Lol
Again this is a complex problem, I will let the engineers figure it out.

It's called a Cayman. 911 has turned into a two door Panamera. It's not a sports car anymore. Still love it though.
